Huge!
Unless Richie Hall just uses him to fill gaps Sam Hurl style.
Oh, please God no... Can't stand the thought of that if Ritchie is still left in charge.

No, seriously. Are 2 year contracts just for entry level or rookie players? Can veteran players still sign for 1 year? I just want to know.

I thought 1 year contracts were taboo. Either way, we just became even more serious Grey Cup contenders.

Coyotes are out.....out a long time ago actually lol....So I jumped on a bandwagon and I am enjoying watching the games. This ain't life or death stuff.
If you aren't a Jets fan then why feel the need to come here? Why not go to a Knights fan site?

Camps opening this weekend. Technically I dont know if it s the end of the off season but it sure feels like it.
Nice thread, boys. Drive safely.
It certainly is the end of a long, cold off season.

There’s also Drew Tate. Don’t see Calgary signing both.
If Tate comes back, it'll probably be with the Stamps. Familiarity with the offense & Dickenson.

You can't really argue that it wasn't a poor decision for his career.
It's just not about taking a knee. Politics was just the last straw. He always had trouble reading defenses but this is just insane... This may be more damning to NFL teams than taking a knee.

Durant showed his true colours. Like Booch said, I don't think he ever intended to play, It was a set up to get the $70,000. Now he's mocking the Bombers & fanbase on twitter. I hope he wants to retire a Rider & the Bombers screw him over. What bothers me the most about Durant doing what he did was the fact that it was Kavis Reed who cut him before his $150,000 performance bonus was due. The Bombers never did him wrong. They signed him in good faith & were fully prepared for him to be the backup qb. They weren't going to cut him & they treated him fairly. Then he knifes the team in the back. Why? He's just a snake.

Great job in the draft, addressed our current needs and landed a couple of real studs.
Just need the US recruits to come through and we have the makings of another great season of Bomber football. Except for Rich Hall, should have tied the can to him.
Team has a lot of talent. Agree about Hall.

Out of the two posts Mike’s was less nasty.
Some things never change here.

Thank you for your opinion.
Why do you go after people here so much? Everyone is entitled to an opinion even if you disagree. If you don't like what someone said, you just get nasty. You definitely play favourites here it's so obvious. To you, it's all about talking down to, belittling & snide remarks to members you don't like. You don't even attempt to hide your disdain for certain people here anymore. Why don't you just perma ban everyone on your **** List & be done with it?

Wasn’t about Simonise.
What was it about?

Did we actually trade down from #7 to #12 & pass on some promising OL to draft Simonise? That I don't get. Especially with the players we have now at the receiver positions.

and no qbs go
Not surprising. The CFL just bullshits about the qbs every year & never does anything to change things.

Soccer
Are you excited?
Does that mean the field at IGF will be covered with soccer lines?

The stadium can't be sold to a private entity unless the province changes the legislation regarding the U of M. As it stands, no private entities can own property on the U of M campus.
So then, how can the university develop the land around the stadium if no private companies can own property?

You don't get it. Women and little girls were in the crowd. They wouldnt have been 5 years ago. Things dont change over night. But change is happening there. You missed the point completely. I didn't say it was ok that women arent allowed to wrestle. I basically said.. In a few years They will be. Lets pretend new japan who doesnt have any female wrestlers went there. What would you say then? You cant force your beliefs on other people. In time, women will wrestle. The fact they were In the crowd is a huge huuge,, jm not sure if you understand how huuge of a thing that is. Talk to people from there, they are friendly and very nice, they will tell you the same, change is happening... Its just not happening all at once.. Baby steps.. You have to crawl b4 u walk.. They are crawling and will soon be walking. Who are you to tell another country what they should or shouldnt do anyways. I hope you go there one day.. I was in Dubai a while ago.. Im not sure u understand the cultural differences. FFS, there was a break so they could have a 15 minute prayer
A professional wrestling card will help to change thousands of years of Saudi society? Come on, man. that is just plain stupid. (Not you but your entire argument). You just dig deeper with every post you make on this subject.

The Bombers don’t have the debt. They can walk away from the stadium at any time, really. Triple B has debt, backed by the Province.
You can sell the stadium for half the building cost and write off the loss. Bombers can continue to pay “rent” and the new owner becomes responsible for paying maintenance, etc
Where will the Bombers go, Steinbach? If new owners buy the team they assume the Bombers portion of the debt.

They have had issues. And really, imagine if they didnt fire Garth and hire Wade Miller. They'd probably be losing money every year BEFORE paying the mortgage.
The Province should have just paid for the thing outright in the first place. They came up with this scheme because taxpayers dont like $200 million being spent on sports Stadiums, especially one being used ten times a year. And I can't argue with that other then to say, a Stadium is a community asset and for the life of the facility, the cost is rather minimal compared to many other things.
I'd have rather seen a small fee on tickets (like $1-$2) as a sort of facility fee then taking on massive debt servicing.
Bombers are doing well so the idea of private ownership isnt talked about anymore. I had always hoped True North could have been convinced to come in and take it all over but Miller is doing a fine job running things.
No private owner wants to assume the debt you're discussing. The NDP did throw a massive yolk around the Bombers necks with this deal. Don't know what the solution is. maybe this should be on Asper to assume the Bombers debt as he's the one who reneged on building the stadium yet still walked away with money in his pocket when everyone panicked.

Lol. You cant push your beliefs on other countries. They need to do it themselves. You got twitter? Go talk to ppl who live there.. The first concert there was in 2016. It doesnt happen overnight but Change is happening there. Its just happening at their pace. Yes women should be allowed to wrestle and do other things there. Its coming. Give it a few years.
You are over reacting big time. Imagine you lived there.. Grew up there. How would you like ppl telling you what you are trying to push?
When it comes to Human Rights abuses no one should turn a blind eye & say it's okay because that's their way of life. I'm also saying the WWE should have stayed away. How many little kids, girls & women are wrestling fans? I guess they don't mean much to Vince & the Board. People are dying in prisons in Saudi Arabia everyday. Women's rights are being trampled. Girls can't go to school. But that's okay with you??? I was at work. Didn't see it. Will not watch any replays.

Meh. I dont see much backlash. I see a few ppl on twitter going on but they go on about everything.. While i think its brutal that women cant wrestle there... Its a different country a different culture.. For far 2 long.. North Americans have been pretending we know it all and our way of life is the only way. Well, hate to say it.. But... We are wrong.
Im not saying Saudi Arabia is right.. Im just saying that just because they are different and have different rules... Doesn't mean they are wrong either.
Who am i to tell others how to live their lives? Especially in a country Ive never been 2.. Closest I've been? Last summer me and my girl.. We went to Dubai..
Fun place... Crazy adult water park and yeah its different but... It is what it is.. Its strange seeing things you dont normally or ever see in North America and yeah... Its odd but it is what it is. WWE is entertainment tho... Not sure why ppl want to hold them to a higher standard than the US government or Hollywood who has filmed movies there.
You say it's okay not allowing women to wrestle & they may not be wrong???? Basic human rights & suffering be damned for the almighty dollar. Gotta answer to the shareholders. Now there's corporate & business ethics for you.

I would too. Lots of $$$ there
No amount of money is worth it if the WWE brand is irreparably damaged.

We should all thank Darian Durant for making the ultimate sacrifice & retiring so we could sign Bighill. Darian, the ultimate team player. Never thinking of himself. Just what is best for the Bombers.
