Our 1st and a 3rd for their 2nd and Ward. Basically, swapping 9 for 10. 

Revisit that if we lose west final 17-16 cause our kicker missed 3 field goals..after we struggled all season....first rounder looks pretty good...plus we have drafted guys who we been grooming now for several years..and need to be paid and technically I don't see a huge need for a first rounder this year ..we draft well as it is so I'd sacrifice this year for chance to repeat

I've never seen a player like Streveler. On paper, statistically, if you didn't know the Bombers, didn't do much. But as a Bomber fan, his on field impact, what he brought to the team, how badly he wanted to win - absolutely legendary, and such a key part of the Grey Cup season. I've said it before, one of the best football players (not QB) I've ever seen. Every player, coach, fan would love to have him on their team.

Reading this had me thinking of these guys:

Michael O'Shea vs a Hurricane - who would win??  "O'Shea, yeah O'Shea".  But....the name of the Hurricane is "Hurricane Michael O'Shea".....ok hmmm...."O'Shea".
Going with only 11 players on offense is start, but in order to keep the Elks within 100 points of the Bombers, perhaps Mr. Collaros should play the entire game in a lazy boy recliner....da Bombers!

busy busy. air liftin 6 guys mid season is always a sign of a strong healthy team 😛 

I literally get emotional when I think about Streveler's play in 2019... especially in the playoffs... With a nearly broken ankle, he was truckin guys AND out-running them... would not take a play off, no matter what... that guy was absolute heart and soul... even if he never plays another snap for the Bombers... he's already a legend in Winnipeg... Also had more TD passes in the GC than Zach 😁

Made with heart, fueled by Michelob Ultra. 

little known fact, chris strevelers body is made up entirely of heart. 

If anyone never read Paul Friesen’s Winnipeg Sun series on the Grey Cup run, his book “Against All Odds” on sale at the Bomber Store gives a really neat insider account of how it went down, and gives some great insight into just how tough it was for Streveler. And for those who aren’t fans of Friesen’s writing (it can be somewhat simplistic here too, remember that he has word counts with his articles, unlike my posts, lol!) I understand that some of the proceeds go to a good cause. 

Boateng though is Canadian....no knock on Jeffcoat but not many Canadians have been so dominant on the dline...

My experience at Rider games has been first class. A few mouthy fans but who doesn't? 
Anyways, Elks are here. Let's send them packing like we sent those Oilers packing. 

I've got really good friends in Regina that are Rider fans, but they are the rare? classy bunch.  Watched more than a few LDC's with them and they were very good about some of those Rider wins.

I look at it the opposite. I hate soccer lines on a football field & how it despoils it. 
They have an 11,000 seat stadium at Western in London. Make it 25,000. Put a team there. 

You're both right. They currently do nothing to promote the Argos, and could do a lot because they're MLSE. And, I think it's too late. The Argos are so far down the pecking order, I can't see promotion as a way to get fans to watch them at BMO. Too bad. It's a nice venue. I think the only option is some type of relocation in GTA, Southern Ontario, and then promote the sh&t out of the team in that area. 

It's doubly worse because Bell owns MLSE (with Rogers) and TSN.

He's after the interest of Dave Naylor, which happens to align with TSN. He thinks he'll be a big fish in a merger. 

Dave Naylor, like most other TSN talking heads, are trying to convince us that the CFL cannot stand on its own. It's been his mission, since the XFL-CFL talks started to get the leagues to merge. 

25k stadium like Hamilton’s out in suburbs see if the CPL team would also be a tenant. 

We're talking a Commissioner in his 60's here... Like me. We don't understand all these new revenue streams. The most savy Commish we had was Mark Cohon. He was plugged in to marketing the CFL & would understand these new platforms. He would be a better leader than Ambrosie is. Too bad we can't get him back. 

Exactly! I stream every sport I watch now - Jets, Bombers, Vikings, USports football. Some are from providers like TSN, but, I don't have cable. So I'd buy the streaming package from anywhere.
And your Hansen "bunch of Germans" comment - so true, and made me laugh out loud. Well done! You might be Randy Ambrosie though.
