From Bob Irving on Twitter. "Chris Streveler gets cut by Arizona, creating a lot of interesting chatter in the Blue Bomber inner sanctum. IF Streveler clears NFL waivers & IF he would even be interested in bringing his 2019 Grey Cup fur coat back to Wpg, there are no rules prohibiting the Bombers signing him." What I'm reading into this is that the bombers have discussed it internally and would be interested. Like he knows they have talked about it and they told him that there are no rules preventing it.

I thought we were trying to give him reasons to come back not to stay away.

I don't see it. There will be too many good options out there. The only team that doesn't have a starter I'd Ottawa and you've got Dane Evans or Masoli available and one of Montreals qbs.

If we could sign him this week I feel like he could be ready to help the team for the next game. A small package with Streveler would be better than any of our other backups.

I don't really see a future for him in thr nfl. I'm hopeful we can sign him as our back and future starter.

I suggested that he may have the other intangibles. Just was stating that based on the measurables and the lack of production i'm not sure what they see in him. I would love nothing more than for him to be the next Cahoon/Denmark type of guy. Maybe he will be.

I think the bombers released Roosevelt because they became very satisfied with Kelvin McKnight for whatever reason. Not sure what the see in the guy. He's short and doesn't have elite speed. Maybe he's got all the right intangibles.

What are the playoff records of the teams who didn't make the playoffs.

I grew up in Calgary and went to games and listened to games on the radio. From the GameDay announcer to the radio guys there was always a level of arrogance that goes well beyond anything I've found in other markets. I get that you are broadcasting to the local audience and the focus of the broadcasts is going to be from a Stamps perspective. But there was never a need for such arrogance.

I agree with you that it's a highly unlikely scenario. I just am pointing out that I don't lose sleep worrying about our QB's free agency status. If Zach for some reason decided to leave Winnipeg we could basically pick from a good group of available quarterbacks who would love to play in Winnipeg.

I think its pretty unlikely that Michael Reilly leaves BC. But in a world where Collaras was to lets say leave for BC and Reilly was available I think there could be a fit in Winnipeg. He's been getting beaten up in BC and isn't getting any younger. He could sign for the most money which is typically with the worst team or he could take less money and play in Winnipeg. In a good situation he can win championships, protect his body for life after football and gets more years out of his career. I hope for his sake that BC either improves around him or he ends up somewhere where he is going to be protected.

I'm not too worried about Zach being a free agent. He's a good qb. The team is benefitting from him and he is benefitting from the team. He's not going to go to some team where he won't be able to stay healthy. And if he does there will be plenty of qbs available who will find the job in Winnipeg appealing.

I will admit I'm somewhat surprised that Chevy was publicly exonerated of any wrongdoing given the current climate. I think that Don Fehr needs to step down because he was supposed to warn hockey USA and did not. I always felt that if anyone at that meeting was going to keep their job it was Chevy since he was not in a senior management position and the initial report from this meeting was not of a sexual assault. It was a report of a coach coming onto a player but that nothing more than that happened. At that time the victim was seemingly not comfortable sharing the full story and that is completely understandable. Chevy's involvement was limited to being at the meeting and most of the people who were at the meeting didn't even remember that he was there. Senior management needed to be fired and so did Joel Quenneville. It was reported that he had spoken up and suggested that the team couldn't handle this type of distraction so they should wait until after the playoffs to deal with it. I also have a very hard time believing that ownership was never made aware of the situation.

Hopefully Provencher doesn't get a second seat.

I don't have a problem with a climate tax. Id just prefer that it was implemented differently. I don't think there should be any additional tax applied to the use of alternative energy like hydro electricity. We should be also subsidizing the use of alternative energy. Like electric vehicles and solar panels ect. Rather than giving it directly back to people.

Does anyone know what possessed BC to make this trade. I can't imagine a 4th round pick is worth making the bombers more difficult to get past in the playoffs? Perhaps the players union forced them to make him available to other teams?? Im kind of surprised Hamilton didn't have any interest.

Maybe he will go down as such due to longevity. But he has never been at the level of Doug Flutie or Jeff Garcia.

You can get a booster any time you want in Manitoba if you received mixed doses. You just need to tell them you need it for travel.

What's the path like in the NFL from being a special teams coach to head coach? I feel like if you're a special teams coach the best opportunity you might get after 20 years is to be an interim coach until the end of a season.

We need Hardrick back. Noticeable drop off.

There's gotta be an American kicker out there with upside. But I'm not totally against giving Mourtada one more week. I don't think his struggles are about accuracy. Moreso adjusting to the angles.

That new corner looks pretty good too. He did give up that touchdown but honestly his coverage on the play was pretty solid. Just maybe mistimed his jump a little bit but I think he's a keeper.

Im viewing Crapinga as a stop gap. I believe that Sergio Castillo and Lirim Hajrullahu have yet to secure contracts as training camp bodies. If one or both of them are still available once the NFL season starts i think we will try and bring one in. Brett Maher is also available after being waived in March by the Cardinals.

I was sitting on that side of the field and it looked like the ref was shielded.

Very impressed with "Our Bombers" last night. It was so amazing to be at the game after all that's gone on the last couple years. Winnipeg was more ready for the season than Hamilton was. I think that our rookie DB's handled themselves quite well and will only get better. Hamilton was out of sync where as Winnipeg was able to use their tried and true running attack to dominate the game. Hamilton will be much more difficult to face later on in the season. But based on this game Winnipeg deserves to be number 1 on all CFL power rankings. Defending Grey Cup champs and Hamilton is supposed to be better than us based on the so called experts. We dominated them!
