Bombers were close to signing Marcus Ball
I love it. I'm sure we'll be in on him when he gets released from Carolina.

Around the CFL Offseason Discussion
Yeah he played in the PIT in the winter and helped out with finish first football. That was pretty cool of him. I'd take him back for the min. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure he founded FFF.

If Chris Bauman can, he can. I wouldn't mind seeing him here. For vet minimum.

BC released Kito.

Charles Roberts isn't even the last Roberts to wear number 1 for the Bombers. Michael Roberts wore it for a game during the season after Blink left.

Ivan Brown has been assigned 97 for training camp. Yeah ... another Brown.

Als Sign Michael Sam to two year deal
Would you be saying the same thing if he was the first black man in the CFL? I don't like it because I don't like the circus he's made out of his whole situation despite his constant insisting that he just wants to play football. I don't like the fact that he basically accused St. Louis of cutting him because he was gay. If you want to be a football player, be a football player. If you want to be a spectacle, be a spectacle but at least own it. Michael Sam keeps insisting he just wants to go about his business and play pro football, but everything he has been doing proves otherwise.

It kind of bothers me how much attention he's getting. How many other NFL washouts get this treatment when they sign?
-
21 Canadians
Either way, that's WAY more impressive than past seasons.

Wouldn't be surprised if he's cut in camp.

Biggest issue with that article: "it's unclear where ESPN got this information"

CFL Supplemental Draft
I agree with your assessment. The part that sells me on the whole Waggoner story the most is that we put one over on Wally B. Just the fact that he's sitting in Vancouver or Kamloops right now steaming away that the Bombers pulled one over on him is gratifying to say the least. Especially after all the years of watching the Bombers screw the pooch as rival GM's grabbed guys like Westerman and Mike Reilly right out from under our noses. ... we didn't pull anything over on anyone.

Bombers Add Import DB
29 years old means he's either got to be Patrick Watkins or he's not likely going to get a spot.

Expectations? Playoffs.

CFL Supplemental Draft
Sounds like Kyle owes Duane Forde a doughnut. Also - how pissed off is Wally right now? He had this kid in the bag and Forde totally screwed it up for him. It would have been interesting to know if Wally was planning to switch Waggoner's passport after the draft passed by. If Wally had signed him before this happened, he wouldn't have been able to ever switch status.

CFL Supplemental Draft
One pick deal, so you know Ottawa wasn't one of the teams that were in on him. Almost makes you wonder if Ottawa weighed the possibility of bidding for him and holding their own auction. Sounds like he was pretty sought after.

CFL Supplemental Draft
So how do they decide the Bombers pick has the most value? It's the draft order.

CFL Supplemental Draft
Two other teams offered first rounders for Waggoner. I feel okay now.

CFL Supplemental Draft
I actually know Rotor in real life through mutual business acquaintances. He is not blowing smoke. I'm not at liberty to discuss his personal life but it is very safe to assume that he knows Tillman very well. Is he the father of the babysitter? What too soon?
-
CFL Supplemental Draft
An aging olineman, a mediocre lb, one legit ni talent and three draft picks? I'm sure nearly every year every team does the same. haha lol.

Chapman went unselected.

CFL Supplemental Draft
Rotor over on Riderfans (who regularly talks with Eric Tillman) says Tillman thinks Waggoner has a chance to be a rookie starter at LB.

CFL Supplemental Draft
I'd say that's pretty much a lock at this point. We have more than enough long haired dudes to fill our Canadian ratio on defense.

He trains with Nick Moore in the offseason.
