2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)
This is getting so ******* tiring. If you have a twitter account, check Dave Naylor's tweets about this very subject. He said the Lions can rip up Rourke's rookie contract & re-sign him anytime they want. I could post it but I want you to find that tweet on your own. Why should I do the work for you? The CFLPA will be onboard with it. He said that no one ever thought a first year Canadian qb would ever tear up the CFL like Rourke did. There are ways to do this. But the 3 year rule in the CBA is typical small mind CFL & CFLPA thinking who both can never see the big picture.

It's a senior league.- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)
I do. I remember when Arndt played for BC & Ottawa. He was your typical CFL back up who struggled at times but then showed brief glimpses of glory. As a coach, I think he had a lot of potential to be an OC in this league someday. But he still has the bug to play. I wish the guy all the luck. My son blew out his hamstring in the off season at SFU training going into his senior year in 2015. He couldn't run. It never healed properly & still bothers him today. He needs surgery. But at 32, he can get it done whenever he wants so he's not in a hurry. He wanted to keep playing but was forced to stop. That injury cost him the chance to be the starter in 2015. In limited playing time he tossed just one TD pass. Not the way Tyler wanted to go out as a player. He had plans to go to Europe to play (maybe) in Germany but couldn't go with his injured eg. So good for Arndt, He's healthy & can still do it so why not? He controls his own destiny. If things don't work out as a player, in the XFL or USFL then maybe gettimg a job as a qb coach in the NCAA next year. Or going back to the CFL.- World Politics
Like the article stated, Putin was counting om Trumpers winning big in the mid terms but that didn't happen. Trump may never be President again. (We can only hope).- World Politics
What I took from that article is that it's saying the Russians can't win the war. The hatred for the Russians goes back many centuries. From conquering Russian armies of the past to the Holdomor in 1932-33, the resolve of the Ukrainians is too great. My Uncle came from the Ukraine. He emigrated to Canada after World War 2 & married my aunt who was also Ukrainian but born & raised in Canada. I knew of this Ukrainian hatred of Russians back 50 years ago whenever he spoke about Russians with much contempt. I think had he owned a gun & knew a Russian was approaching him on the streets of Winnipeg back then he'd have shot him dead without any guilt, sorrow or misgivings. The Russian could be a total stranger. It didn't matter. His hatred was that strong. Now the war is fueling that same hatred to a new generation of Ukrainians. The question is, will NATO countries keep supplying the Ukraine with weapons to fight? The Ukrainians can't drive the Russians out without help from NATO countries. The support is crucial or the Bully wins.- Grey Cup 2022 GDT
Those aerial shots of Mosaic Stadium show just how small Regina is. Roads & railway lines go straight to the horizon & disappear seemingly to nowhere.- Merry Xmas/Season's Greetings/ Happy Holidays/Fesivus For The Rest Of Us -Whatever You Want To Call It.
We've experienced the same thing. It seems when an appliance of ours failed it always was at the worst possible time. My wife & I are just going to sit down for our turkey dinner. Quiet Xmas this season with just us. Hopefully, we'll fly to Seattle next year for Xmas. I'd prefer to drive based on what is going on with stranded flyers & cancelled flights. However, then there's blizzards to deal with driving thru the mountains in BC & Washington.- Merry Xmas/Season's Greetings/ Happy Holidays/Fesivus For The Rest Of Us -Whatever You Want To Call It.

What is a Getty King? Thankfully, there are fewer of these Trump asshats in Congress than before.- Covid-19
They did a great job murdering a hundred people who burned to death in an apartment building because some Communist official took it upon himself to padlock the building from the outside. Don't tell me how wonderful that regime is with Covid. Xi Ping & the CCP are cold blooded killers. What he did should be enough to bring the government down. Hopefully, someday these thugs & criminals will be in jail. All of them.- Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
Politics. Wilson was drafted & Streveler is a free agent signing. If Strev could throw he'd be a starter down there. He can't make all the throws. Same issues as always. Just like Tim Tebow. There is a coaching term for throwing off balance. Once a qb leaves the pocket & throws on the run it's now called "throwing off platform". Collaros has changed his throwing fundamaentals. He throws the New Way as it's being called as it's so new. Just like Mahomes, Burrows, Hurts, Murray, Tua in Miami, Rodgers, Herbert & Wilson do. He made the change & has really found success with the Bombers. Kids now want to throw like that. They're being trained to do so.- Game 33: at Bahhhhhston
Watch a game from the 60's with 6 teams. Or with 12. Quality of play was outstanding,. The 80's were all out offense. No defense. - 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)
