Want to thank @TrueBlue4ever for putting the effort in doing this throughout the off season. Not a small amount of work, and very much appreciated to give us all something else to talk about during a long off season.

steal of draft was Eli hands down

Foketi has officially become a "pretend player", after quietly practising not to play for two years, he's now perfected his transparency through complete absence.

The centrepiece of my cave is a (reportedly) game worn 71 from eBay. My unnaturally large son never remembers why his dad makes him wear 63 when he plays OLine. 38 would be pretty cool too. Please one of these years can the Bombers make some memories for my kids. Keeping the faith on Vancouver Island. Very grateful for training camp updates —- way more detail than Bombers website.

Invaluable. Preseason or not. These reps are so important for Streveler.

lucky Whitehead 100 yd kick return td. "If he finds a crease, forget it" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-aNFIPzr84 something bombers have lacked.till now.

"Jake Thomas, surprise training camp cut since 2016..."

this is MASSIVE.......if I could get this for EVERY game, I'd be happier than a pig in ****, I'll tell you....

Although it can get a bit hazy here in the Ether, I can confirm that there is no one here by the name of Foketi. I will keep my eyes open though.

I made a projected depth chart for Friday night out of the roster list https://imgur.com/a/n1TjlWi Edit: Updated the link to point to a revised version based on Bauming's tweets. @Floyd

Final roster. Mount Rushmore is Stegall, Walby, Ploen, and Grant.

Added it to the thread... thanks!!

SJ Green looks like he's going to have a tough time making the team...

#freecousinzach

Spoiler alert!!!

No Nichols tomorrow. Ted Wyman‏ @Ted_Wyman 9s10 seconds ago Chris Streveler will start for #Bombers against Eskimos on Friday and Bryan Bennett and Sean McGuire will see playing fine as well. #CFL

i read somewhere Soliman is injured..hasn't practiced yet?..how does one get injured before even being on the field...I think father time and injuries are taking toll on him and doubt he be much of an impact player there this year...more average than elite

Argos up quick 14-0 Jimmy Ralph with first TD and Derel Walker with the second. Set up on a long pass to a washed up SJ Green.

Yeah, I get the feeling that he is likely dealing with some personal situation. Being absent this long, without the team releasing him likely means it's something serious. Hopefully him and his family are ok.

Uhm... not sure why this is in the CLimate change thread... This should be in the forest management thread. We should be talking about raking the forest floors, like they do in Finland, as that is what combats wildfires. #MakeCanadaRakeAgain Here, just in case people were wondering if I was off my meds again. MCRA!

In North Macedonia, there’s a small industry of websites publishing misleading and inflammatory political articles targeted at US readers. Simon Oxenham meets a woman who worked there. http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20190528-i-was-a-macedonian-fake-news-writer?fbclid=IwAR0_oDrBMrQTFPQOnYbhK492wJu9sLheXem9JEZsGlpqMNofcS-tv7Z79pY

Bauming and Tait have had a lot of quality stuff. There's the "fluffy" features, sure, but the casual fans really enjoy those. For us, there's the daily News n Notes column that Tait does. Bauming has a lot of tweets about stuff happening. Between the two of them, it's pretty good...

I think we will easily dominate the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. cant wait to see him in game action.

I like that the Argos made this an event for school kids. Good idea for building a future fanbase.

Don't forget horse racing!

1290.... usually if I turn it on, it's hockey. also, some golf. a bit of NFL. bit of bombers. But predominantly... hockey. For me, this is boring.

Jump to 6:10 of the following interview, shore sounds like a glowing endorsement for Jake. https://www.bluebombers.com/2019/05/27/coach-oshea-may-27/

Our Canadians with significant starting experience are currently Harris, Neufeld, Demski, and Wolitarsky. Hecht and Couture also have some limited experience as starters. Geoff Gray is essentially a rookie... Derek Jones, Brady Oliveira, Tui Eli, Cody Speller, Petermann and Simonise all could potentially start... but potential can go either way. It would be unwise to cut Thomas. At the very least, he gives us flexibility in case we get hit with a rash of injuries to our starting Canadians.

Generally when you are joking like this though, you come out and say it....like "ah man I'm just playing! lol" and then shake the guys had or whatever....Ed didn't do that...just walked away. Odd joke, especially when Stafford was asked about it and he certainly didn't seem like he was in on the joke.

Don't get it twisted. I have no hate for Thomas. But the writing is on the wall. They drafted 3 DL this year for a reason. Depth certainly being one of them, sure. But as much as I love Thomas he only made the grade last year after an injury to someone else, and he had a tremendous camp then as well. At the end of the day, we have 7 starting NI's without him. And at least 1 CND who has playing experience with 3 more that have way more upside behind him. There's likely minimal cost savings with cutting him, but the young guns will need reps, whether in game or practice. Hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see a point in keeping him.

One might say hes a stealth bomber... Foketi IS ironman!

3rd annual...

OMG Thanos snap got Foketi and he never made it back!!

if there is s surprise d-line cut it will be Nevis..or Roh...or both..Bryant is younger and cheaper than both, and way more upside and the last 6 ganes of year probably one of the best DT's in the league..Roh is expendable once Kongbo is healthy as it frees up a DI spot...and again...no need to "start" a national at DT...why make yourself weaker if you don't have to?..Richardson..Bryant..Nevis...offer wayyyyy more than Thomas...his time was already done last year but an injury got him back...he is on his last legs now...and will be lucky to make roster

At the management level, absolutely! But that wasn't the point... the fact remains that the PC government has and continues to make cuts where you said they weren't.

The guy who says not a single person has been laid off is accusing someone else of making stuff up? I guess the 132 people (or vacant positions) that the WRHA got rid of in a single day doesn't count? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/severance-wrha-1.4151130

Toronto is hardly a shitty sports town. Football is really the only sport not making bank.

Under Dr. Qu’s leadership, Canadian Solar Inc. became a publicly listed company on NASDAQ in 2006 and has grown into one of the largest photovoltaic solar product manufacturers and solar power project developers in the world. Canadian Solar Inc. now has delivered accumulatively more than 29GW of solar modules to thousands of customers in more than 100 countries. The Company and its subsidiaries have also connected accumulatively more than 3.8GW of solar power plants to the grid. NEWS RELEASE CANADIAN SOLAR SIGNS 1,800 MW MODULE SUPPLY AGREEMENT WITH EDF RENEWABLES NORTH AMERICA - LARGEST MODULE SUPPLY AGREEMENT IN THE COMPANY'S HISTORY GUELPH, Ontario, May 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Canadian Solar Inc.

Hamilton is a youngish crowd. Montreal is a very noticeably young crowd. Cheapest beers in the East last year. When Als stop sucking attendance will improve.

First thought would be who is the next guy up to snap the ball. If you can't get the ball reliably to the QB nothing else matters. If none of the 5 starters can handle that, then who your 6th guy is becomes really simple, and that's how Couture got on the roster as a rookie. Neufeld played around with it a bit too but struggled pretty badly in the 2017 preseason. If Couture doesn't win the starting job he'll almost for sure be the 6th OL.

If I had the time I could do this with a private stream... unfortunately with two small kids I would not be able to commit. Maybe another one of the tech nerds on here could do it?

Beg to differ. Wyman has had several articles on the Bombers camp. This listing of TC injuries kind of snuck up on fans, so I don’t mind him reminding us just how quickly the list can grow. Wyman, even Friesen, and especially Ed Tait have kept us informed. Thank goodness. This year, there seems to be a lack of fan participation/reports, so I’m happy for whatever I can get.

Either way you slice it..we are looking good on oline with vets..2-4 year guys and 1-2 yr and picks to keep continuity going..unlike a lot of teams

Green can still produce. If he was washed up the Riders would have traded for him

Neufeld is not the weak link in an OL with 2 projected "new" starters......

No I won't
