Count me in as someone not concerned about our WIL position with the rest of that front 7. Pretty happy with how our secondary is shaping up too. Should have a great defense this year and that will be good enough to win a lot of games. Look at how many games Sask won last year with less of an offense than what we currently have. And now we have Willie Jefferson

I’ll tell you why I’m not in favour of reducing the ratio, there’s already good Canadian players (Simonise & Peterman for example) that Already don’t get much of an opportunity to play. I’m not sure why we would want to diminish that further.

Jeffcoat - Bryant - Nevis - Jefferson Me like...

To be fair he was talking to Foley, who is just as equally a joke.

It’s anticipated that about 25-30 contracted rookies will be at camp, while another 10-15 will be working out with the possibility of a contract being offered. Plan is to have up to 15 receivers in Florida for this two day camp. - Darren Cameron Camp will consist of all first-year players and be run by Head Coach Mike O’Shea and the club’s coordinators. GM Kyle Walters and assistant GM’s will also be in attendance

I love this picture....

Love that Nevis is back. That D-line is going to be insanely fun to watch. https://www.bluebombers.com/2019/03/16/special-place-special-city-nevis-re-signs-winnipeg/

So how do you emerge in your 2nd year when you're behind Bighill and Santos-Knox? Coaches said before they got bighill he was an option in the middle and when JSK was hurt Wilson looked OK. I think you're selling him short based on circumstances.

Much rather have Canadians (even tenuously connected ones) than global players. **** sakes, why don't we focus on getting the 3 biggest cities in the country actually supporting our league before we worry about mexico and europe?

Wasn't sure where to put this, it just made me smile...

Match that against the 7 highest Import salaries then..

I don't see the need for that...or why people moan and complain about no Canadian QB's...or having a need for them...why?..if there isn't one..let alone 9 around to put on a roster and be a player who can contribute, and contribute effectively then whats the point??..YOu roster a sub par player with no hope in hell of really amounting to anything other than say as a short yardage guy just because he's Canadian?..I have never understood this thinking and seems pointless and a waste of a roster spot and SMS

Other than doubles probably not in the open era. Andreescu is having one hell of a year, really making some noise beating some good players. The Canadian men are doing OK too but nothing like this. Indian Wells is a big tournament too, outside of the grandslams it's probably the biggest 1000 level tournament along with a couple others so winning this is a big deal. Good for her and always love seeing the Canadian athletes do well in non traditionally canadian sports.

The CFL should have put money into research for better & safer helmets. Put $$$ back into grassroots football to develop the game here in Canada & not freaking Mexico.

There will be blowback from these comments. Better put on your helmet.

Is that not the case for all drafted players?

You would think that the Lions would want to draft Simba....to one day be the king...of their offensive line.

The logic behind it is dumber than actually playing Hendricks. Lets play LAs style? Why? Dumb.

Cherry picking.. Its 4 assists in last 5 games playing 7 minutes a night

6 months is a bit of a stretch. I get the reasoning, I just don’t agree with it. I don’t think Hendricks should ever play.

Typical Maurice to try to play the other teams style instead of playing what makes us good.. A fast paced skill game. Sure. Grind with one of the worst teams in the league.. Why play your best players... I mean its just LA. This is dumb... Its dumb for many reasons and handicapping yourself with 4 minute Matt is one of them. Basically 3 lines tonight.. Odd cuz the 4th has been quite good recently

I never went... was it as "friendly" as u-*****-ia?

If we lose to LA it is not because Hendricks was on the ice for 7 minutes....

so let's say you have an emergency and he has to go in..............and hasn't played in like 6 months...................you want the guy to have had some ice time.

You’re a fan, right? 😁 But seriously, why do you HAVE to get Hendricks into a game? He’s an emergency fill in. Against the Kings, does seem to be the time to do it though, if they feel like they have to. My fear is, because Maurice loves his vets, Hendricks doesn’t have an awful game, and Roslovic continues to waste away in the press box.

Yeah but how many Foleys would it take to carry Carter’s jock strap? None - you have to be a man to wear a jock strap..

how is Ottawa your comparison point? The point is: It's a nothing game.....Hendricks isn't that bad.....you have to get him on the ice at some point, so why not tonight........and the boys in the room are going to absolutely LOVE that he's in the line up for tonight. Fans, by and large, are morons.....the coaches know what's up.

I get the reusable bags and have several. But I still get enough plastic ones that I use for kitchen/bathroom garbage cans. And the impulse shopping will be a bit of an issue as well as we are not good about putting the reusable ones back in the car after using them.

lol rhetorical is right. A ton! He was generous with his booze and weed if he invited you over though (I didnt smoke, but I enjoyed his booze). He had been longtime friends with the manager of the bar and partied together a lot during the era when Burton sang the national anthem at Jets games. Burton was "the Sheriff" and the bar manager was "The deputy". I remember a story where they went all night and Burton had an afternoon game. They got him to the arena and he was passed out in the green room, carried to the ice level and when it was his time to sing, he suddenly bolted upright, walked out, sang perfectly, walked back and passed out again. He used to play for us at his home. And with the same gusto as a concert. Amazing he can still sing the way he treats his voice. Great guy though. Super nice. One time, I took my then-gf to his house and she was too young to know who he was but I was showing her around and she loved that I was excited. We get to Burton's bedroom (which was sparse save for a single bed and small TV in the middle of the room). We're sort of making out and Burton suddenly walks in, is surprised to see us, apologies for interrupting and leaves.

Sure did! Best job I ever had 😉

And now Wernick is out: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/wernick-election-panel-snc-1.5060834

This is a hell of a read

If he didn't get hurt last year, he was on track to take the starting job from a supposed All Star......he's very very good.

No team should “have to” roster a QB just because he’s a National, BUT, there can be a provision to carry one and not be ‘punished’ for doing so. Make them part of the ‘EH’ team.

Remember that even if the number of Canadian starters gets cut from 7 to 5, EVERY back-up still has to be a Canadian. 3 QBs, 20 internationals, and 21 Nationals at the this point (with a minimum reserve roster of 2). That's 189 guaranteed Canadian spots right now in the league compared to 207 Internationals, provided that every QB is American (which is not the case right now, but is the norm). If Halifax joins the league and the Canadian starter ratio gets reduced, then the total number of Canadian jobs in the CFL actually goes UP, to 190. I like the ratio rules and feel that we need Canadians in the CFL, not for the CFL itself but to keep Canadian university football going and building.

I couldn't care less if there are any NI QB's in the league, but if there are, then they should be considered NI's. If that means teams roster one, just to have an extra DI, so be it. They'll pay dearly if they ever need to use the NI QB and he isn't good enough. As for having a 4th QB spot designated just for a NI... That's a hard no from me.

Very glad we could afford to bring Nevis back Wonder if the Bombers would consider 7 NI on offence...

IMO, a lot of those kids exist. The problem is keeping them in football till they get here. I also think -1 NI starter but +2 NI roster spots fixes a lot of problems.

When was the last time a Canadian won a tennis final? https://www.bardown.com/canada-rejoices-over-bianca-andreescu-s-historic-win-at-indian-wells-1.1274995?fbclid=IwAR0Rs68dlf-PsRWxH22xdnQmeib57FeMPWeSPGRKbV8SmO-k-PX25OCCVeU

Knowing Justin Dunk would take the bait.

Really looking forward to seeing Jeffcoat and Jefferson go after QB's. I'd expect big seasons from both of them.

It's the "slippery slope" that gets me the most. I'm terrified of getting to 0 and I'll have almost no reason to watch anymore. I know I'm in the minority but I watch for Canadians... The rewlnones who come from Canadian HS to CIS to CFL. That's the league, in my eyes...

Well then, all Betts are off..

His stock is as high as it can get I'd say...

Why should he.
