Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
I am hopeful that the billionaire who owns the league calls it a day. I thought it was bad up here in the CFL from week to week but the UFL has taken attendance futility down to another level. And the UFL is announcing expansion teams??? Lol.

2026 Bombers Season
We never learn from past mistakes. From playing up to 10 Canadian starters for no reason other than to get an extra second round pick to signing older veteran free agent players, these were the criticisms of Walters & Osh before. Nothing's really changed other than someone setting Walter's alarm this season so he didn't sleep thru free agency on Day 1 . Of course, we knew these criticisms last year when their contracts were expiring.

Well, since we'll be going to a 10 game schedule after we merge with the UFL we'll have training camps in Florida in February. At least attendance will match up.

CFL attendance not much better than the UFL.

Achilles, perhaps? JSK played in the CFL for over a decade. Why can't we go after younger free agents? We ran into the same problem when we signed thirty plus receivers. Most of them were busts here because of injuries. What a waste of free agent resources.

Should the Bombers look at expanding PAS to 40000? To take advantage of their popularity?

2026 Bombers Season
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.

That's Mike's way of saying all of you who do these reports we read suck without him saying it. He's the only one here who has the knowledge to do them. Another Mike Drive By smear. And the guy's a mod? He'll crawl back under his rock & emerge again in a week or so doing the same **** picking on some random member here that doesn't like.

Great QBs on great teams don't screw things up. They play like game managers, make great plays themselves at times but let the talent around them win games. BLM may not have been as great if he had played for the Lions instead of the Stamps. Or with us from 2013-16. We were a wasteland at qb back then as I recall. Look what Collaros did in Saskatchewan. Virtually nothing. Then he comes to Winnipeg after another useless stint in Toronto as a washed up pivot & set the CFL on fire as a Blue Bomber in 2019 & 21. How good would Ken Ploen have done had he signed with the Alouettes instead of the Bombers. All the pieces have to fit in place even with the great ones to win. BTW, I think Matt Nichols doesn't get the credit he deserves. He came here for a bag of footballs as Ed Hervey felt he was washed up. Nichols turned the fortunes of the Bombers around. I'd like to see the Bombers recognize his contributions to making this organization a winner.

Which is why I hated the hiring of Jake Thomas to be DL Coach. i envisioned that happening. It would be so easy for Osh to throw JT back in there to be a playing coach. We all know O'Shea would do it & Thomas would be happy to suit up.

QB Tom Clements in his prime. He could run a modern 2026 offense with his skill set. Receivers James Murphy & /or Joe Pop would thrive in the pass happy CFL. I'd also seriously consider taking ONE OF...linebackers, Tyrone Jones, James West or Greg Battle. As well as DT Doug Brown & DE Stan Mikawos.- 2026 Bombers Season

I like it. But it's obvious he works less than any other TSN on air analyst or pbp. One game a week. Wilson should also be in the studio on the panel when he's not in the booth on Fridays- Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
Crusty Cal was born in 1932 so if he did have children involved in football at the CFL level, we'd have seen them 30 or more years ago.- 25/26 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season Thread

Just got my Banjo Bowl tickets. I'm having toe surgery on July 8th. No weight bearing for 6 weeks so this is cutting it close. If I can't go then I'll let you guys know & I'll sell my 2 seats at face value here. Who was JJ Taylor?- 25/26 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season Thread

Another Osh pick. Even the guys on the panel were at a loss to explain this pick. Why would the Bombers trade up for a pick like that??? - Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
