  1. 100% need some ni wr bodies. For imps I think it’s ok though a kr wr type would be great to have. Qft. Tsn does a piss poor job as a partner of the cfl. They take what the fan base offers for as cheap as possible. If the cfl is wants to actually grow the market and recover the young viewers it starts with better media coverage. If I never see him out trying to catch a pass in a game again it’ll be too soon lol. love the guy hope he comes back in a big way.
  2. That cats roster looks ugly.
  3. Over. Dark side is evans daddy. ba back and couture on as a reserve. Huuuge. Couture starting will be Nice next week I presume. just getting guys back will be power shift big. If ba is back to peak form soon it’ll allow soo many guys to be much more aggressive
  4. Malik cunningham and yes, he is the son of former eagles QB randall cunningham. https://primetimesportstalk.com/2020/12/26/2021-nfl-draft-scouting-report-malik-cunningham/ https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4240069/malik-cunningham Mark Gronowski https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4695400/mark-gronowski https://ampoleagle.com/remember-the-name-gronowski-p15392-208.htm https://bvmsports.com/2021/07/16/after-emerging-as-south-dakota-states-no-1-quarterback-mark-gronowski-isnt-letting-his-injury-get-in-the-way-of-his-career/ Carson strong https://www.nfl.com/prospects/carson-strong/32005354-5260-6190-8574-8df4e803866b https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/carson-strong-1.html https://theathletic.com/3277613/2022/04/30/2022-nfl-draft-carson-strong-nevada-qb/
  5. Looked back a bit at the neg list releases over the past couple season. Not many guys the mafia name have ended up here. Nichols, richmond, and JT hassel are the guys I see that we grabbed. I wouldnt be surprised if most of the guys we name are either guys we will drop shortly, guys who will sign soon, or guys who are long hauls. The mafia are notorious for keeping their cards close to their chest. https://www.cfl.ca/2019/12/17/cfl-reveals-list-10-negotiation-list-players-team-4/ https://www.cfl.ca/2019/08/15/cfl-reveals-list-10-negotiation-list-players-team-3/ https://www.cfl.ca/2021/09/09/10-players-unveiled-cfl-teams-negotiation-list/ https://www.cfl.ca/2021/12/21/10-players-revealed-cfl-teams-negotiation-list/ https://www.cfl.ca/2020/12/16/cfl-reveals-updated-negotiation-list-team/
  6. https://www.bluebombers.com/2022/09/15/dave-ritchie-inducted-into-canadian-football-hall-of-fame/ Great read. Gonna be insane when they honour his induction before a game.
  7. Love that logo. I got a shirt with it at fan appreciation day. I’d love for that logo to be on our 3rd uni. Bet Mourtadas goes cheap wonder if they would change the name and number on it
  8. Aren’t only the bottom two teams eligible for territorial picks? s2 was a beast.
  9. Bad teams make bad personnel decisions and even worse use of talent. remember when hardrick was cast off by bc? Or when demski was ready to be run out of town in sask? Or when Darby was the odd man out in Toronto and flipped to us for a low pick? he fits our scheme and our locker room. Doesn’t mean he will fit as well in those ways else where. I like evans talent. But winners want the ball in their hands when it counts not a clip board. Maybe he needs more time to polish under an established qb. But he isn’t likely to get it.
  10. Bring Darby home. I’ll give him a ride for free.
  11. On top of all that demski has been quietly enjoying his most productive season too. Over 6 attempts per game for 54 yards and a td every 9.1 targets. Hed be on track for 970 yards and 12 tds in 18 games. If all the wrs stayed healthy for close to 18 games we’d likely have 3 guys over 1k yards and would be a threat to have 4.
  12. With out looking at the tape you can say ypc yac and catch rate are hurting. But in baileys case they aren’t. for instance I’d say lucky whitehead is a guy that should be producing more. 12.9 yards per catch averaging a td every 28 pass attempts to him averaging 5.6 yac per catch plus his return production has been limited but poor any way. Haven’t watched tape on him and obviously rourke has been hurt but even then he hasn’t been the same since he got hurt last year. He’s a 200k+ guy in his prime with maybe the best wheels in the league. He should have dalton schoen level explosive production all things considered. Or atleast Kenny lawler level. If he had seen schoen levels of offensive plays he’d be maybe the second biggest roty threat in the west. Augustine has looked poor in limited touches since brady stepped up and he’s easily our biggest catch and run and deep threat. He’s bringing a lot just by being able to run off the secondary.
  13. Pretty much. Last year the first half or just less he struggled catching the ball consistently. But this year he’s been very comparable to the second half of last year just not enough passes to go his way. that said when every one is healthy some tough decisions will need to be made. Ellingson schoen demski woli Gmac and Bailey with grant already as a wr di. Gmac similarly is a guy who just needs more touches. If we are going to focus on getting touches to a guy he’s the guy. Bailey isn’t a guy that needs to be forced touches or that you need to try and involve. He’s a perfect 4th, or 5th wr. He’s there when you need him Keeps the defense honest and does a lot with out the hall in his hands. maybe Gmac becomes a di rb / wr again and we use him in more of a package role. Generally it’s a good problem to have. When’s the last time we had too many good wrs?
  14. I think it’s still a couple weeks before the cfl trade dead line and before guys realize they aren’t getting nfl pr spots if they don’t have one now. I bet our neglist has seen considerable shuffling and the scouts have been working late hours picking brains around nfl tcs to find gems.
  15. We could really use an infusion of talent at db.
  16. At first it sounded like the cop was 100% profiling. And the cops in that area have a long history of just being the worst. Un armed kids being shot in the back all kinds of awful actions. Refusing a breathalyzer is greasy. Taking it would’ve only strengthened his claim. have to wait and hear it more news breaks.
  17. 1000% percent. Them dash cams should all be publicly available after say a month.
  18. That’s it back to Regina.
  19. Terrible teams have terrible roster management.
  20. Millionaire good billionaire bad. Yeah it’s a silly sentiment. I don’t like hockey or care for the jets, I think the jets only impact on the bombers is negative. But I respect true north for making their franchise work, I know it wasn’t easy early on especially getting the nhl on board.
  21. Isn’t that the whole point of an anthem any way? I wish more areas of each country had their own ritual like that for their anthem. It adds to tradition doesn’t take away. I won’t get political, some groups in this country have a more American leaning and would rather be poor man’s Americans than Canadians. And down south the anthem is a big deal. It’s incredibly pretentious. I’ve seen terrible stuff happen to people too slow to rise and remove their hats or who had a coughing fit and more. no one has more fun on this roster than yoshi. We are lucky to have a guy like that. It’s one of my greatest hopes for this club that he remains involved with the team after he retires.
  22. Every time this year we are thin at wr and need plays, some one else steps up and plays like an all star. Doesn’t matter how high or low they are on the depth charts. When called upon they come through. No one else is gonna say it around the league because of higher star power and money else where but this is the best group of wrs in the league. Any one of these guys can carry the bulk of the load, block like a mad man and will do all the un glorified work so others can shine. You can’t ask more from a group then that. and in the face of considerable injuries and in experience. I bet it’s the cheapest wr core of any play off team by a mile too. And some none play off teams.
  23. If by details you mean to excuses. truth. play of the year so far.
  24. The football gods would not look kindly upon cousin $&@!ers if they existed. They get two wins in the modern era and the fans become the most toxic thing in the world. Worse than red Sox fans. And they think that makes them the Yankees.
  25. Bet he doesn’t get infracted for that comment.
