You know, it's funny. When I saw this thread had a few new unread posts, I jokingly wondered "who retired from Saskatchewan now" hahahah

such an unnecessary post. For all we complain about how guys these days chase the money and have no loyalty, this is a guy who went out of his way to come back and retire wearing our colors and all you want to do is question why he'd do it? Best of luck to Hefney - one of my favorite Bombers ever.

Player to watch in camp for sure.

I hate to laugh, but this being the second player acquired for draft picks only to see them retire makes me laugh a little bit inside. Only because I can only imagine what Rider fans would be saying if any other team had this happen to them.

Here's the thing: if he wants to come up here, he's probably close in value to the 1st overall pick ... but I wouldn't want to make that deal. if he doesn't want to come up here, he's worth nowhere near it (obviously)

Just think, he could've been ours had Tim Burke never poisoned this franchise.

Mini camp invites mean nothing - the same thing happened last year. Especially with the Giants, they're really doing it more to give these kids a chance to experience the big league camp life. The Giants aren't looking for a right now solution, they're looking for those connections to be built so that down the road, they can attract these guys if they come back up north and make it big. If I'm a CFL GM, the only guys I've moved around on my draft board are Smith, Abdesmad, Colquhoun and Bouka (who wasn't high to begin with)

I wish I had said this *before* the lottery, but I never dreamt it would happen anyways so I didn't think I'd need to but I'm happier with the 2nd overall pick than the 1st personally. The decision is either Laine or Matthews. For our roster, I actually prefer Laine but now there's really no decision for us to make. We simply take who Toronto doesn't and the pressure is on them to make the right pick. If we had the first overall pick, I'd still want us to take Laine. I understand Matthews is a center, but I'm taking the Ovechkin prototype over the Kopitar prototype every day with our roster built the way it is.

I think we like being an alternative to the "official" forum. That being said, my own personal opinion is that I'd be curious about Tait's approach to dealing with a forum like this one seen as how he's posted here before.

I thought that communication network software thing was interesting. Didn't know teams did that.

Yes, we're stuck with that color. Seats can never be removed. Ever.

Depth chart (I know, I know) showing Darvin Adams at slotback this year. OL is Bryant-Daniels-Goossen-Chungh-Neufeld in that order.

I really wish some of the vultures around here would actually do a little research before trying to criticize the league. The CFL already made a statement that they have no plans to switch the ball around.

I'd love to see Hochuli straighten Al "CFLREF" Bradbury out.

but pass yards given up

Did somebody actually try and claim we have a weak secondary?

I don't know what anything is anymore if you're feeling positive.

No offense, because while Kirk Penton is a solid reporter, his ability to judge the performance of an OL is about as good as mine or yours. Which is to say, not very good.

Try reading literally anything. It seems to be a weak point for you.

... you're trying to turn "he didn't bring it up in the answer to an entirely unrelated question" into "he denied it" That's what makes it so ridiculous.

That's quite honestly the most unreasonable thing anyone has said on this forum in a long time. It doesn't speak volumes, you're just looking for something that isn't there and stomping your feet about it.

This isn't so much a "football" discussion as it is a discussion on your inability to understand that when Kyle Walters is asking a question about the sky being blue, he's not going to answer by talking about how grass is green.

What rant? And I wouldn't be so quick to suggest the pants will be blue. If anything, I could see them doing something similar to what Nike did and have a specific "color rush" style uniform they wear once with the blue pants, but I believe the pants will ultimately be gold.

Don't get upset because you were condescending towards somebody and got called on it, despite being in the wrong the whole time. PS I can't ignore you, I'm not allowed. PPS if you wanted to have a conversation I can't "jump into", maybe don't have it on a public forum next time.

I guess Sun Media, ChrisD.ca and a number of other publications all have it wrong then because you saw with your own eyes. I guess when Ohio media called the Bombers to do a piece on Chris Garrett in 2012 and asked for comments from his coach, it was just a mistake that Kyle Walters was the guy they tabbed to do the interview. There are some things worth being stubborn about, but good grief is this ever not one of them.
