    I bugged Bauming a few times for an update as to whether or not Gray was practising and he eventually forwarded me a tweet from junior/cub reporter who said he was. 

    I bugged them all but only Bauming responded. 

    I should have asked Naylor or Dunk. 

    Serious question though, how does a Canadian guard go from being on an active NFL roster to being benched for a rookie?

    We need Eli as a backup centre. 

    Not sure if he's still injured or what is up with him. 

    I'll ask the media again... Well, this is embarrassing... it seems there is no one covering the Bombers. But do you want an update on Ehlers' favourite video game? 

    I did read somewhere that he is practising, but also just fell down the depth chart. read it from everybody’s new favourite media guy, darrin bauming

    The area I will be somewhat focused on at the game is the line play. Calgary is starting 3 imports on their OL (both tackles and the center). It will all depend (IMHO) on how much pressure the Bomber DL can get on BLM. With the field conditions and the cold it also may be how well the Bombers can stop the Calgary run game and of course vice versa. I am heading out around 1PM for the game. Normally we leave earlier and stop for lunch somewhere but for this one we want to make sure we get there in good shape given the roads in Calgary today. Lots of snow and still snowing. I have AWD  and winter tires on so not all that worried.

    When they blitz, they have to apply effective pressure . Sending 6 guys and having no one reach blm can cause nightmares for our secondary. But bring on the snow.

    I'm fine with that. Not sure what it should be. Do other pro leagues have a similar rule? If Kawhi Leonard or Patrick Mahomes missed a couple of games for an alleged small positive sample for a banned substance, are they immediately ineligible for any league awards?  

    So In the NFL, failing a test for peds results in the person not being able to receive league awards, but can still receive individual game awards. Ex) Edelman. Won super bowl mvp but could not get any league awards.

    But, no, not really. He did his time, right? I mean, Banks was nominated and he's been suspended before. When was he last tested? What about the test one week earlier that showed Harris was clean? 

    Hey I believe Harris should have been nominated too. But if he took PEDs either knowingly or just due to carelessness, I can see the argument of why they wouldn’t want to leave them off the ballot. It seems to be if you take a drug one year, the next year is a clean slate for you.

    It takes a while for results to come back. He's just a guy off the street with a low volume sample. Also, if the test comes back positive, he's going to need to protect himself, legally, if he's going to say anything. 

    And if The test comes back negative, does that make the decision to leave him off the awards list the right one?

    Way to go Bob Irving AND Mike Miller, cudos for standing up for the true heart of the Bombers....Whoever voted against Andrew.(because that's what it amounts to) better check their bull$hit at the door...They call themselves Winnipeger's???I think not ...How can they look themselves in the mirror..   just plain bull$hit...I won't say anymore cuz I'll get thrown off of here...I'm just livid

    Everyone on here may not agree with it, but calm down man. It’s not the end of the world.
