Looking forward to seeing how the linebackers do on Monday. Should give us some insight and something to talk about.

None that I’ve seen

I saw a clip of Gemmel making an interception for what that is worth

Yeah I second that. O'Shea is the GOAT when he wins his 5th cup.

I need at least a twonie before I stop.

Like I said...I can go a do a Tanya Harding...I take requests

Has there been any reporting out of camp about any of the linebacker prospects? The interviews are nice but I miss the old "who stood out" format to camp reports.

Gotta wonder how pumped Danny Mac is that he spends all off-season scouting talent only to have Jesse Briggs, Shayne Gauthier and Jake Thomas take the bulk of reps

Maybe the city didn’t pay their Shaw bill.

Some of us can’t even shut the **** up about 2001 yet never mind last year.

They both played at South Dakota though... which is where Tre Thomas also spent most of his career Bombers do not have any players from South Dakota State at this time

From the Hockey News: “[Bennett] plays hard. He’s an extremely physical player, great player for the group. I think he got away with a shot, but I’m not going to complain," Marchand said on Thursday. "[Stuff] happens, that’s part of, especially, playoff hockey. I’ve been on the other side of a lot of plays, and I think he got away with one, but that’s part of the game.” Based on BM's specific style of play, he's lucky he hasn't been stretchered off. He's the perfect example of what Ref's need to call more often to lessen the retaliatory infractions to help lessen the violence that can cause serious injury, not only to the player that did the original deed, but to other players who pay the price of their teammates instigation style of play.

Oooooooh zing.

The second in a row that was cancelled?

He stuck with him really well but how do you stop a well placed ball with Lawler on the other end?

I thought they had a Vezina winner in Edmonton?

From said contact sport?

Nah, don't- I'd probably just drop it... Like the Bombers did in last years Grey Cup

Ok I’ll shut up. Actually no, we should’ve had that one too. You can have your nickleback

Noah Hallett back on the 6 game for the nth time, might be time to give up on this brother, he never panned out.

They'll prolly watch the NFL kickoffs this season to help determine if they want to go that route. These are the changes for the upcoming season: The league also announced it was ratifying other rule changes for 2024 directly relating to low blocks and decisions made by the command centre. Low blocks have been adjusted to further define the actions of a backfield player delivering a low block. Backfield players may block a defensive player low who is lined up across, from, or outside of the offensive tackle at the snap if the block occurs in the legal low block zone. The league also removed the requirement for the backfield player to be within the legal low block zone at the snap to make the call easier to officiate, while also heightening player safety by limiting who can be legally blocked low. No yards has now been added to the list of penalties that can automatically be picked up by the command centre if called incorrectly by on-field officials. Replay officials can only become involved when a clear mistake has been made. Tripping the quarterback behind the line of scrimmage has also been added to the list of penalties that the command centre can assist on and is now challengeable by a coach. Coaches are allowed to strategically use a timeout to provide the command centre with more time to automatically review a play that is not challengeable, though only one timeout can be used after the three-minute warning in the fourth quarter. Coaches still only have access to two timeouts per game. https://3downnation.com/2024/05/17/cfl-kickoff-rules-unchanged-in-2024-subcommittee-formed-to-examine-future-changes/

I've got a shiny nickel for each of you who finally decides to shut the **** up about last years cup.

Report: Maple Leafs hiring Berube as head coach Arniel moves up from 10th to 9th

K-Law just bananas

The last time I would have seen it was in the 1980’s when you had to roster 11 starting Canadians including special teams IIRC. The standard make-up was 5 Canadians on the o-line, starting fullback, two slot backs, and on defence the safety and the nose tackle, for 10 there, plus the kicker/punter (one doing dual work, or both being Canadian). And the Bombers once had an extra Canadian start with House/Poplawski at slot, the 5 OL (Walby, Bonk, Bastaja, Moors, Nemeth, and later Bauer, Black, Molle and Rodehuskers), Kehoe, Huklack or Hudson at fullback, Bennett, Flagel, or Allen at safety and Mikawod at nose tackle. Add Cameron/Kennerd and we had 12. The extra starter was Darryl Sampson at halfback, as his mom was Jamaican I believe so he actually qualified as a Canadian starter, so we could roster 13 Canadian starters.
