Terrible, terrible accident. As much as it looks like the fire truck was directed to be on the runway by an air traffic controller when the Jazz airplane landed, the driver of the firetruck should have checked to make sure the coast was clear. Had he looked properly, he'd have seen the plane coming down the runway at 100 mph. That poor air traffic controller might be the scapegoat & go to jail for negligence. From what I've read he was already dealing with another emergency with another aircraft & may have been distracted as well as overworked due to staff cuts initiated to controllers by Trump & Elon Musk.

Discovery was the same way & it was cancelled. Fans hated it. Seeing a barefoot Captain sitting in an undignified way in the Captain's Chair was another thing fans hated about SFA.

Chevy gets a contract extension.

In Alberta, atom, pee wee & bantam are in the fall same as high school. We have spring league (formerly called midget) & girls U18 tackle football in spring. Seems to me that the officials associations have to do more recruiting.

Throwing stones in glass houses as usual again. You flap your lips pretty good like a guy with no dentures. It doesn't matter where the 2 qbs played. Both offensive lines were garbage. We played the worst Center in the CFL for years. Brown couldn't last even last the 2 opening games with the RedBlacks. Then spent two full cycles on the 6 game IR missing something like twelve games. Yeah, Collaros luck may run out & we're hooped. If that happens that's 100% on Walters for letting the QB Room deteriorate to where it is now.

When you have actors in their mid 20's to early 30's portraying 18 year old SFA students it suspends whatever little belief that a sci fi series can have. A 30 year old is usually more physically mature than an 18 year old students which includes not only stronger bodies for physically fit men & more developed bodies for women but also facial differences as well. Not having Tilly as a cast member after it was announced that she'd be part of the series regulars reportedly because the showrunners felt actress mary Wiseman was overweight so wasn't offered a regular part after announcing she would be a series regular. Pretty hypocritical considering the series was supposed to be inclusive seems to be one of the main reasons it was never accepted by Trek fans. Especially, the gay Klingon, Jay Den Krag who seemed to get the most vitriol on social media. I watched SFA & neither liked or disliked it but wasn't surprised it never found its footing with fans.

Yeah, great to see as helmets are the biggest expense when it comes to buying football equipment for teams. I never hear of anything even close to that from the Stamps when it comes to the football community in Calgary. AFAIK, the team doesn't even exist anymore in Calgary. The media here treats the Stamps the same way the owner treats Calgarians. They ignore them the same way he ignores them. The local newspapers don't even cover away games anymore. Coverage is almost non existent. The owner is such a cheap bastard. Most fans wish he'd sell the team. He's an absentee billionaire owner who lives in Switzerland so he doesn't have to pay personal income taxes in Alberta & Canada after making his personal fortune here in the oil & gas industry. He's either refusing to sell or wants so much $$$ that no one will buy the team.

The way Brown was, he'd have never played an yway. He had large gaps between being performing on the field & IR. I just got the impression Brown may have been able to come back come back but didn't seem to want to. I question his toughness & leadership as he certainly doesn't seem to be another Matt Dunigan or Jeff Garcia. So, if T Burg wants to pay a guy who's injured more than he plays then how are we saving money? We'd have been paying Brown to sit & do nothing on the 6 game Injury List multiple times. I think Dinwiddie felt the same & went out & got a qb he feels he can work with in Maier to push Brown. Look what Dinwiddie did with Arbuckle in Toronto last year. Two years ago, it looked like his career was over. If he does the same thing with Maier then Brown is gone. Ottwa is (probably) spending more money on their two qbs than we spend on the 3 or 4 we have now as both in Ottawa are veterans. Other than Zach, our qb room have backups with limited experience or none at all.

For my own info, what have the Bombers done for youth tackle football in Manitoba? It would be interesting to know. Here in Calgary, you sure don't hear much from the Stamps when it comes to tackle football in the community at any level.

You'd take this guy if the price is right in your mind.

Thank you so much. Tragic, hard to comprehend sometimes.

Brown should take a pay cut of some kind. He's won nothing & in my opinion showed a true lack of leadership with his play on the field when he did start but was always hurt. Dinwiddie is giving him another chance (his last?) by not signing Crum who was the defacto #1 last season & was actually developing into a decent qb capable of starting. Why he signed to play backup to a young Davis Alexander in Montreal is surprising. Jake Maier could push Dru Brown out the door if he doesn't rebound for 2026.

Nope. We may never see him in a Bomber uniform. The longer this goes on, the more I think Walters eventually trades his rights to an Eastern CFL team in Ontario where he's from & went to university down there.

Hopefully we sign Smoke Monday.

Wow, that is exciting. I remember when Dakota Prukop played in the UFL as well with the New Jersey Generals.
