I would say Simonise agrees..

Lmao Hodge tweeted “if the Tiger-Cats don’t pick Jesse Gibbon they will regret it for the next 10 years” ... he had them taking Lenius-Dickey in his mock. he is so insufferable. Lmao

Ungerer. I’d pick him based on name alone.

Whether you like him or dislike him you can’t deny how good Kyle Walters is at assessing Canadian talent. Another solid draft overall for the Bombers.

"Waking up this morning, being a Winnipeg Blue Bomber... it's like a dream come true." -Brady Oliveira

Walters press conference for one...he is related to Mcmanus wife's family..they have talked to him a lot..he has expressed desire to play again...and is excited it's Winnipeg as he has some family ties to here as well...not verbatim but close enough to what he said

I think it's important to recognize that someone can be insulting without directly insulting someone. People who consistently ignore facts and repeat lies do a disservice to healthy discussion and tend to drive conversations into nit-picking, double-speak, whataboutism and hypocrisy. Their arguments are disingenuous at best and dis-informative at worst. What I feared most about a Trump presidency was not policy (although I knew he'd be destructive), but rather the lowering of political discourse to a level we've never seen. There are no alternative facts and the truth matters. If you cannot appreciate facts, provide them or at least comment on them beyond stale talking points, you provide no value to any discussion and are insulting the intelligence of anyone who has the misfortune to read your drivel.

I wonder if Simba will end up being a lion?

Calm down, you're gonna make Tburgs head explode.

Nice Bomber recap by, of course, Ed Tait...

Hodge had Lenius-Dickey going #2 overall in his mock but graded the Riders C for drafting him 15th overall.... Huh?

Chain of command.

Good Lord, I loath cocaine mitch. He has done more damage to the democracy of the USA than trump has. He is vile.

How much are you willing to bet that... the Saudis are a tenant at a ludicrously inflated rate (for laundry money of course)...

Won’t like the weather here.

Something is up with Wilkinson. Must have interviewed bad or has some kind of restriction.

When better players are available.

Since when are we not thrilled when Winnipeg drafts a local player?

The CFL draft is insanely hard to mock. It’s easy to overlook that but it’s stupid to even try.

Hodge sucks but in fairness to him, Richards was a terrible pick at 1.

Desjarlais and Kabongo please.

Except that people from Trumps campaign team are in jail, so perhaps they were well within their rights and in fact simply doing their duty to investigate them. It's like a mobster complaining that it's unfair that the cops are spying on them. Don't want to be investigated? STOP BREAKING THE LAW ASSHOLES!

👁‍🗨 It’s no wonder. If you look closely at it - 2019 Winnipeg Blue Bombers Grey Cup Champions!

What exactly is Sarah Huckabee Sanders doing on this board and how did she even find out about it?

I'd be surprised if we didn't start the year Bryant - Neufeld - Couture - Foketi - Hardrick..........that's what I'd bet on, anyhow.

and you forget Neufeld..who is no slouch either and brings nastiness to the line..and has been injury free for over 2 season's now for those who used to go on and on about that

I get the impression that he simply puts more time and effort into it than anyone else does.

Bullshit. You come running to his defence all the time with tried and true trumpism whatabouting Democrats. Now maybe you're not actually defending trump and just defending Republicans.... but it is the same thing... ir maybe you're just anti Democrat... which is the same thing. But perhaps if you don't want to be labelled as a trump supporter consider how your actions look. You don't criticize a guy who is wide open to be criticized and try and what about obama/Hillary all the time. That's straight from the trump playbook.

Not sure it backfires politically because it applies to any presidential candidate from either party going forward. If anything good can be said for Trump, he has exposed that guidelines, protocols and norms are not enough to ensure that a president will act in the nation's best interest. Actual legislation is required.

Not sure why I even bother: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/10/02/us/politics/donald-trump-tax-schemes-fred-trump.html

We had *Insert Name Here* at the top of our board. We're extremely excited to get him.

Respectfully disagree. When you have politicians with documented histories of grift and tax evasion who ignore established (40+ years) norms to avoid scrutiny, any measure to formalize the norms is a good one. California is not the only state to consider this. As the Senate is too partisan to do this federally, the responsibility rests with the states. I'd like to see state legislation in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Florida (the swing states) to see real impact as Trump (or the Republican nominees that follow him) aren't going to get any electoral votes in California anyway.

Here's a link to the Duane Forde interview on TSN1290 yesterday morning: https://www.tsn.ca/radio/winnipeg-1290/the-big-show-may-2-2019-1.1299673 Interview starts at 1:26:10 After CBA and Solo talks, the draft talk starts at: 1:30:30 Kongbo talk: 1:33:10 Oliveira talk: 1:35:10 Eli talk: 1:37:15

I'm going to sum up our draft: Wait, that's not too Riderfans a statement is it?

Who cares about Friesen ? 😄

Riders need to replace their Canadian QB here.

I don’t love the pick but I don’t hate it

Why is Joe Mack there for the Canadian Draft? To make everyone else in the room look smarter?

Davis sure is obsessed with Shamawd Chambers, one of the shittiest receivers in league history.

But will he come over from the KHL?

Hearing Rod Black on these promos makes me shake with illness.

Love it an OL for the pipeline and a potential stud DL. Think about it though, we traded Julian Laurent (#7 last year) and David Mackie (#16 last year) for Simonise and Desjarlais.

Chill bruh

Taking a RB who can kick return might be a smart move roster wise

Makes sense they picked kongbo if they don’t budget for 2 first round picks. He will get 6 gamed which will mean only 2/3 of his salary counts against the cap.

Good so far, I can pronounce...and spell both picks!

Kongbo please

Beauty. This guy will play for us this season.
