Just gonna say this... I was considering removing my last post but decided to stand by it. I have a feeling I may have earned a trip to the Principal's Office. I just want to say to all of you who take the time to go to Bomber training camp or practices & then come here to give us your thoughts & observations, thank you. You are appreciated. For those of us who live out of town or can't make practices due to work committments, your opinions are great. Without your comments, we'd know very little. Just what the Bombers want us to know through social media. It's great to read what you see. So, keep it up.

No one tell the commissioner about this

Thanks for the input. I’m sure all of us that can’t be there are starving for any little tidbit we can get.
Hopefully Dixon can get it going… I was hoping he’d make an impact.

some thoughts, with the usual caveats about limited reps, one day, etc
Penner from the Rifles fits in during skelly, rec drills, etc. the problem today was they did a tonne of sts blocking drills and he’s younger and smaller than everybody else and got bullied. He had one rep against Banks that was hard to watch.
Speaking of Banks, he looked great blocking but just ok as a receiver.
Both American rbs looked good. Both had some nice runs, and Arnold took a swing pass for 30ish yards in full scrimmage.
Payton Thorne looked really bad. Held onto the ball for a long time and threw a few picks in skelly.
Perkins turned the wrong way for a handoff twice on three plays. I can’t say for sure it was his fault, but the coach spoke to him after each one and the following play he’d turn the other way. I wasn’t very impressed by him either.
Poncius and especially Elsbury looked really good on the ol. Elsbury won every rep I saw. Only time I saw Poncius get beat was when he picked up the wrong guy in 2 v2s.
On the dl I didn’t see Dixon win a single rep. I thought KMB looked great. He’s small, but always gave the ol trouble.
Saw two Dante Daniels reps blocking. He got run over by KMB on one, then buried Aaron Smith on the next one.
No 1v1s today for recs, so that sucked. Singer ran a nice corner/post route in skelly, but the qb (Thorne iirc) threw it late and it got knocked out of his hands. Otherwise didn’t really notice any recs standout.

Getting old and sentimental but wonderful to see the rookies chatting and to hear another MOS interview telling me very little but knowing Bomber Football is back in season.

Wait until you're surrounded by 30,000 screaming Bomber fans dude. Then you'll really see what "beautiful" means.

What did Elgersma have for breakfast today? The media is failing us.

With Rookie Camp getting underway Wednesday morning, it's officially time to talk about the 2026 Winnipeg Blue Bombers!

Yup establish the run to set up play action so OW can enjoy spiking the football a few times in the endzone.

Was about to cancel my TSN subscription but if done today it will stop tomorrow.  Must be a one or two day grace period.  Will have to wait until next week.  Won't it to the end of the month.
 

Doug Brown unimpressed with Alexander's white tank top and "C'mon over to Montreal".
Not as concerned with our defense today... If we can win the TO battle, we can win this game. Keep it clean on O, and we're in really good shape...

Protect the ball, Brady as the offensive focal point, win the ST battle. Leave Hogan at the hotel.

Gonna believe that Collaros is gonna show everyone that he's still the man. When playing against top qbs on other teams he seems to step up even more. GO BOMBERS!

Protect the ball and feed Oliviera and we win the game.

Need to win the coin toss so Winnipeg can kick off twice.
 
 

Still a possibility that Demski is playing as he's warming up on the field.

**** all the negativity, and whining and crying so much.
Whether we run all day, pass all day, need the D and ST to carry the whole load..... Just go win the damn thing. 

3 keys -
 
Bombs away, we need hamilton zach or old mop zach to show up. We need the win, but we also need a statement and a momentum building after last weeks bed crapping.
 
WR step up, we've cycled through a bunch of guys and now with demski out, we need guys to step up more than ever. I expect a big game from wilson, but some one else needs to take the next step or two as well. 
 
Turnover battle, we have to win it. We've been crushed by the rate of our own failures this year, and we need to get past that immediately. 
 

Don'r recall Collaros rolling out so often, but its working.
