well, best wishes for a smooth birth and a healthy baby and mom who can be a consolation to Lauther when he shits the bed in the LDC.

as a full participant in the ensuing comment frenzy ... that was not our finest hour.

Saskatchewan's team doctor say Trevor Harris is fine.

Oops! All Canadians

Personal reasons = removing a truckload of manure from his driveway.

And that means absolutely nothing. They decided to move on from Jake Thomas in 2018 and the ******* guy is still here so they definitely aren't opposed to bringing players back. That said - this is a nothing burger debate since there have been no rumours or intel suggesting this is even a possibility. A poster with zero credibility posted a link to his Ticats profile and people went a bit nuts over it.

I think someone on Riderfans mentioned that Lauthers wife is imminently expecting. Maybe something to do with that

Polk back at WR for the Argos.

Lauther out for personal reasons ... while there's another kicker in camp looking to take his job. Hmm. No mention of Harris there either.

Youth Football. I'd bet the Bombers are close to if not the team with the largest investment into youth football in their province. New equipment/jerseys/coaching/funding for flag/camps etc etc. Hell they just bought the entire league T-shirts that are branded heavily with Bomber colours and logos. Along with the team the kid plays for. Every kid on my team knows at least a couple Bombers. A good chunk based their jersey selection off Bomber player numbers. Even when asked if 88 is for CeeDee Lamb...the kid said no...Wheatfall. Not to mention the recruitment from up north and flying people in to watch games. I don't know what MLSE does to help out amateur football in ON. But I'd say it's likely not enough.

agree with Booch -- I think Wilson's play breakdown is pretty good, especially for a sideline reporter. He zeroes in on the key elements of the play and points out the error or the achievement. No sugarcoating. I remember a game this year where Edmonton's OL was getting absolutely perforated ... Wilson broke down the breakdowns crisply and did not hesitate to call out the guy making the mistake -- one of them was an OL caught flatfooted by a stunt / blitz who gave up a lane right into Fajardo's lap. As an on-camera personality I think Wilson improves the broadcast. As a twitter personality, whatever.

Diego Pavia is on our neg list. Don't think he gets a shot a real chance shot at the NFL.

It's not that irrelevant when we have the wizardry to carry one backup and thats who comes in if a guy goes down...like we saw...or 2 Who would you rather see out there again as the backup..Woli or Corcoran?.....seems like a pretty easy choice and relevant one to me...His presence out there would garner attention and make some space for our other guys as well.. He wouldnt be brought back to be the guy....but augment what we had and offer proven vet experince...not like the dude is over the hill in Biggie/Thomas territory by any means His presence would give us a bette roster than with one of Cobb or Corky they didnt wanna pay him and figured Clercius was ready...which he is....but had zero depth behind him tho...poor foresight

Makonzo on for Kramdi...and play so you cant take him off...I can see it happening

Not to nitpick or challenge your post....but he had 8 yrs...fairly solid ones at that in terms of TE stats for a NFL tight Emd who wasn't an offence's key guy NFL fams with casual interest may check in to see whats up if they see he is doing something with league, but ;ike you said youngins and people who are just your average fan would have zero clue, but he does offer more on how he breaks some stuff down and what he contributes to the in-game analysis than that screechy Clair and Britt Dort who Rider fans think is some god....The girl in CGY is good tho and will get better CFL just needs to onboard themselves with the way leagues and companies now market themselves online with social media and fan interaction....thats where they slipping big time

Luke Wilson is irrelevant to prob 90 percent of people who watch and go to cfl games. Most ppl probably have no idea who he even is honestly. I’d imagine the average person at a bomber game has no clue who he is. Average not online smart mark fan. The young ones certainly don’t. Not sure mom and dad know either honestly. I forgot he had a cup of coffee when Seattle won the Super Bowl 10 years ago now but yeah… he’s not gonna grow the game, neither will the panel or any other thing like that, what will grow it is promoting it and keeping it as truly family friendly kids welcomed environment. There’s nothing a guy like me in Winnipeg can do about attendance problems in Toronto. I don’t live there, I’m not sure the issue, it’s probably MLSE related tho. No marketing? I’m not sure cuz they used to draw a bunch. I mean is cricket outdrawing the cfl in the t dot now? Last time I was there I’d say yup it was. I can’t fix that. MLSE can by marketing the team better but they really don’t. So that’s on them. They seem ok with it.

They let him go. I don’t see them bringing him back less than a year later.

Mills please

I’ll join you cuz I think there’s a chance he’s the guy here after Zach is officially done. I don’t think it’s Streveler or Wilson or even Artopeus. I think Elgersma will be the next starting QB of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Not this year probably not next year but the year after, he will be our starter. If he comes up this year he’s probably the backup next year.

With the future of Zack....let's say 'becoming a little cloudy' (to say the least) maybe it would be a good idea to have a credible option in the fold...Our management must have seen something they liked when they drafted him...Bring him in for a looksee and let the cards fall where they may

lol. Still wouldn’t bring him back cuz he wouldn’t be starting. Ppl can go on and on until they blue in the face about the backup receiver but really, it’s irrelevant. We need some better starting receivers. Woli would be a backup here cuz no way we start 3 cdn receivers.

Yeah, I don't think Woli was actually released... Much speculation about nothing, lol. But I'd take him back, given the chance.
