Around The League: 2018 Offseason
That much I can agree with. All I'm saying is individuals will still be individuals.

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
I mean ... are we forgetting that Euclid Cummings was a Bomber when all this stuff happened with him that's just becoming public now? Bruce Johnson was also a player that was suspended for drug policy infractions during his time here. It could just as easily be a Bomber next time again as well.

Game 68 : Johnston Terminal @ Reading Terminal Market
At first, you could just blame it on a lack of chemistry with Laine and Ehlers. Then he centered Perreault and Roslovic and they went ice cold ... now Connor and Wheeler look awful. Little has honestly been where offense goes to die. It's awful. Hopeful we're able to move his contract and bring back Stastny on a comparable deal.

Game 68 : Johnston Terminal @ Reading Terminal Market
Doesn't have a whole lot to do with today's game, but just generally speaking ... Bryan Little has become absolute trash.

CFL looking really bad in all of this ...

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
So the league knew ... but he kept playing? And only now does he get his contract voided? and the next question ... why the hell wouldn’t the league tell potential suitors about this? something doesn’t make sense here.

Around the NHL 2017/2018
I'm actually shocked people are upset we gave up a first round pick. Who cares? Why?! The way I look at it, even if you figure we got "ripped off", for lack of a better term, we could afford to. We don't have room for all the assets we have, so we had to either lose some or condense them in a package for something like this at some point. We just stacked our top 9 even more for a Cup push and got two young superstars a possession positive defensively responsible playmaking center that should work very well between them. Erik Foley gone? So what? Where would he fit in our lineup? We already don't have room for Vesalainen without making some moves and we're about to lose Petan for nothing next year ... so who cares about Erik Foley? We didn't lose Samberg, Vesalainen, Stanley or Niku ... we are a Cup contending team that made themselves better today and all it cost us of note is a (probably) late first round pick. What I'm really wondering about ... if Stastny turns out to be a fit here between the two young Euros ... do we look to bring him back on some term next year if we can maybe move Little out? I would assume that at 32 years old, Stastny would probably come a little bit cheaper and Little doesn't necessarily seem to be a great fit for the roster around him anymore.

Dunno if I can make it, but snagged tickets to the 40 and the 1 on 1's

Yeah I figured he'd want to head to Ottawa too.

we did? Why? Because there's a shuffling of the deck chairs coming in the minds of some rabid forum posters?

I hope Denmark ends up on our team in some capacity at some point. Smart player like that seems like he'd be made for coaching.

Will Walters go all out at MLB?
It must be so much fun being just the most miserable ever.

Former Bomber Head Coach Mike Riley Fired
Imagine the weird turn this offseason could have taken if LaPo had taken the HC job in Montreal and we replaced him with Mike Riley.

Free Agency Week - News Central
In time, it's easily possible. Very good MLB pedigrees on both of them, as well as JSK.

I tend to think he ends up in Ottawa.

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
I remember noticing DiManche and Washington on a list of players followed by Ted Goveia on Twitter a year or so ago ... also had a few other interesting names on there too. De’Mornay Pierson El (Nebraska), Charles Nelson (Oregon), Denarius Moore (NFL)

Lol the Bombers already signed Washington, those cheaters

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
CFL shouldn’t get going any earlier than May. I’d be fine with regular season games in June, could make Canada Day a destination weekend a few weeks into the season.

2018 CFL Draft
If we could land Cibasu, I’d be happy ... something tells me he’s top 4 though.

Bomber Moves 2018
And what's wrong with taking Adams, Bowman or Dressler off in certain packages? I absolutely envision LaPolice coming up with some kind of ridiculous package where Flanders, Demski, Harris and LaFrance are all on the field.
-
Bomber Moves 2018
... really? You think bringing in a rookie to replace one of the best kickers in league history is less impactful than releasing a rush end to replace him with a cheaper, slightly less productive rush end?
-
Bomber Moves 2018
Fogg, Medlock, Roh and Flanders? Ideally, I don't know if my roster has Fogg on it. But I'm torn on that personally.

Free Agency Week - News Central
As much as I'd like to see us sign a proven commodity at middle linebacker, I often try to remind myself that we as a fanbase frequently complain that we don't find enough of our own recruited talent. If you ask me, I like the prospect of us going into this year without a "proven" name there more than I did last year, as at least we actually have a guy who got on the field and did very well for himself, albeit at a different spot. Jovan Santos-Knox in the middle to start the year wouldn't worry me in the least ... he's a hyper-athletic linebacker with the ability to go sideline to sideline and while he might not be a smashmouth football player in the mold of an Elimimian or a Larry Dean, he's going to make plays. I want him on the field either way, whether he goes WIL if we sign Henoc or if he plays the middle flanked by Wild and Leggett/Fenner. If he gets beat out by Jevaris Jones or Kyrie Wilson then hey, even better. I just feel better about that whole situation knowing it's not going to be based on the hopes that a player (Kyle Knox) that hadn't been on the field before can make an immediate impact. If I had my way, I wouldn't be opposed to seeing a front seven of Roh/Nevis/Poop/Jeffcoat/JSK/Henoc/Leggett, but if it goes TO/Nevis/Poop/Jeffcoat/Wild/JSK/Leggett, then I'm not worried either. I just prefer the flexibility of having Henoc on D, as it would enable us to use Flanders on offense. As it shapes up right now though, our lineup looks pretty damn good. Excited to see how we tinker with it and to see who we add from camps and the draft. I don't see a lot of obvious holes, which means guys cracking our lineup will be beating out proven commodities, not just filling roles as the best of the worst like Carmichael did last year.

This seems like a move to cut TO loose in favour of Muamba but what do I know ... Roh is pretty good ... not sure of the fit otherwise, as I don’t see us DIing a rush end.
