  1. I've watched the Big Blue more than a few games & history says Patrick Neufeld can't be a long term starter as he has injury issues which keeps him out for long stretches. It happened when he was with the Riders. It happened in 14, 15 & 16 until he was eventually replaced as a starting guard. Now, they want to go back to him?This makes about as much sense as giving Sam Hurl the starting MLB spot when we all knew he couldn't start back in 2015. Only Mike O'Shea & Kyle Walters thought otherwise & we know what happened last season with Hurl back in there. It didn't work. Depending on Patrick Neufeld to be our long term starter is rolling the dice. What started the turnaround with the Bombers a couple of years ago??? Starting Travis Bond on our offensive line. Messing with it by playing Neufeld is a scary thing. Our backups will end up playing more than him which won't be good. The same ridiculous rationale for playing Hurl is going into this decision if Travis Bond leaves & signs elsewhere.
  2. You have to get over this. We aren't the same bad football team we were a few years ago. The 2018 Alouettes are the Bombers of 2013.
  3. Washington State qb Tyler Hilinski, a sophomore was found dead today from a single gunshot wound to the head. A suicide note was left. Hilinski was expected to be the starter next season. He was 21.
  4. Remember last time we did that? And Neufeld was part of that. He barely played when he started. I don't know how things will be any different this time.
  5. Ascension just aren't very good to be honest.
  6. Yeah, I like that. I'm all for signing Durant. Davis is a slug whose had 3 years to figure it out. LeFevour. Is. Just. Awful. Get rid of him. Having a short yardage qb with no passing skills is just too much to sacrifice in the long term.
  7. I remember Khari Jones father used to post as well. We had some interesting private conversations about football in general. What it was like for him as a Dad having a son who played D1 NCAA football at UC Davis & the CFL. He was interested in my son who at the time was going to NCAA football camps as a high school qb hoping to get noticed. He was a nice man but I lost track of him once Khari left the Bombers & finished his career with the Stampeders.
  8. Man, I could go waaaaaay back on this one. The 1965 Western Final. Kenny Ploen hits flanker Ken Nielsen for the winning score vs the Stamps at McMahon Stadium. A 109 yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter! I still remember Jack Wells with the call & Ed Kotowich doing analysis on CKY AM. Man, that was exciting. Sorta like yesterday with the Vikings.
  9. Yeah, is he still doing time? With the Canadian justice system, I'm sure he was out years ago.
  10. They could have pursued him harder had they wanted to. I guess we didn't.
  11. I knew Brian Jack. He was the manager of the store upstairs at the Provencher Ave Fit Stop where all the Bombers worked out at that time.
  12. Pink to sing the US National Anthem at the Super Bowl. Does the NFL really want it televised? Trump is licking his massively oversized jowls over that.
  13. What do you expect when kids don't fail anymore? All those commercials warning parents not to let their kids eat detergent have now gone to waste. The damage is unprecedented.
  14. Someone gonna lose their job. Someone gonna lose their job.
  15. The CFL needs to cash in on this video bonanza.
  16. For sure. but still it looks like her neck was screwed up before & that's why the kick did the damage.
  17. In fairness to Banks, that kick isn't any worse than being thrown hard into the turnbuckle or coming off some aerial move like coming off the top rope or wrestlers landing on a group of wrestlers outside the ring. I will say that the kicks you see in today's matches are ridiculous. The Japanese wrestler who injured Brian Kendrick & the other injuries suffered. Kicks to the head should be banned. There's a guy in NXT who all he does is kick. Wrestlers are getting injured.
  18. Well, exciting.
  19. Paige's wrestling career with the WWE is over due to a neck injury. I saw the video of how she was injured. Paige was kicked in the back by Sasha Banks. While it was a somewhat stiff kick, it wasn't that hard. If that caused her injury then she had no business being in the ring in the first place as it was inevitable she'd get hurt again. On social media, some fans are harshly criticizing Banks for kicking Paige that way but again, it was hardly her fault. Anyway, WWE won't allow her to compete so her career may be over permanently.
  20. First of all, Moore got a lot of money but $175,000 isn't going crazy. Second, who else did they overpay? Those 14 & 15 teams were brutal.
  21. If a player can get top dollar then good for him. However, when other positions go wanting because the team can't afford to pay the players already there because of it then that's just stupidity on the part of the GM. It sounds like Sunderland will be doing just that. .
  22. Can't compare that to what the Esks are paying Reilly, Walker & Bowman.
  23. What a disappointment Ryan is. A couple of years ago, I thought he'd have made a great President but no more. He & the rest of the GOP are spineless cowards. They could do something yet they don't.
  24. I don't know about that. Having so much money tied up in just 3 players isn't a great way to manage the salary cap. What about the other pieces of the puzzle with the Esks that needed to be signed? Looks like they'll go elsewhere. I hope this isn't what Walters does. I can't see John Hufnagel doing that with the Stamps. Or Wally in BC when he was GM.
