IIRC there were notices sent out to schools in early 2022, that next variant (omicron?) would be hard on kids

Elgersma's agents as well as the wee lad himself obviously think they are too good for the Bombers & the CFL. With that kind of thinking by the kid's entourage what could possibly go wrong? Just one effed up football career. If Elgersma doesn't play in the UFL but continues to try out for NFL teams instead of coming here then it'll be time to trade the hoser's rights away to some other suck..... errrr..... CFL team.

Elgersma bad, fan opinion good.

I can feel things heating up Elgersma is almost in Winnipeg. It's just a matter of time now. May as well purchase some cheap blend for the celebration.

They are gonna get in and take out Colorado rd 1 in an upset. They are pretty hot right now. One of the best records since the break. If they get in, could be trouble for Colorado for sure.

Playing better but still too much reliance on the top line. Those guys would burn out in the play offs

Hmmm, it's no joke. People like to ***** & complain. Especially on social media. If 20,000 people move close to thje stadium then if it's not noise it'll be traffic. Or some other ****. Someone will be offended. Politicians will panic.

Pure hyperbole man. These things exist in most large cities

You just know the new neighbours will complain. It's inevitable. There's always one. Or in a big residential area, a hundred.

Blow up all the stadiums, fold the league

Legalized tailgating. And a governmebnt cash grab. How to take the fun away from a football game.

Is Chat aware that a lot of those listed are retired or playing for a different team?

Or that Broxton is not a guard.

How do MBT ancestors feel about Winnipeg?

They knew it was flood prone and would have hockey teams that no one wanted to play for. We should have listened.

It could be a lot of things. The system, coaching or just not fitting in. I'd still take my chances as a 1 year backup with the guy.

Fair comment. Seems like management wants to win now, so maybe they're looking in that direction.

MBT used to be decent. But the Als had no chance when Davis went down last season. Look at the Grey Cup - they had no one they trusted to replace him

Yeah but what do people think he should be doing with his life? We should fill a 3rd thread with comments about him just to be sure

We need a third thread for sure. That young man needs to be informed even more about what's good for him.

Always room for Canadian linebackers.

I knew that when we blew that 5 on 3 that the hockey gods were not going to smile favorably.

I was like "you're actually not going to score here..."

Ritchie Hall's D killed other teams.

Literally left them crying.

That's a tough loss, but you have got to be able to score on a 5 on 3 with all that offensive talent - it shouldn't matter who's in net.

Second and long. 5 DBs, bring the house!

It was at the point where every commentator was noticing it, but opposing O's still had no answer for it.

That was a curling slugfest. Nail-biter for sure! Good to see Canada prevail.

I hardly ever watch curling, but I could not take my eyes off that game.

And a well deserved bronze for the Finns in hockey

gotta think he’s a guy jy likes. It was interesting hearing how high jy was on moxie. sounds like to him getting moxie was on par with the white/jake/broxton pick ups.

I would imagine if a DC has more reliable cover guys, he can than make more use of pressure packages / blitzes

I was just thinking this afternoon how he'd be a great fit for Zach with those contested catches. Then I read he retired. Sorry to see him leave the game but he did it on his terms.

Now we no longer get to complain about how he always pushes off.

Good for him going out on his own terms. Respect.

Absolutely. It's a brutal sport, if you can't get paid what you feel you're worth, hang them up.
