Exactly this. It's all well and good to be fans of the game, make posts and state opinions on a football forum. But most of us have never been out there putting our bodies on the line. In many games, he was our best defender. Heck, even fans of other teams said it. Congrats on a great career, JJ.

Stuff like this is why the CFL is the only pro league that I still watch.

it seems to me that would be easier to do when signing with a contender...you pretty much know you're getting play off money...up to $23 000

Your feelings don't matter.

This. The way the roster is built, BO could have an American back up.

Or maybe desperate. Truth is, he's better than any of the tackles they started last year, and it's not even close.

Wane Mcgarrity will be the answer to my prayers.

$230 K for an import tackle....BO is probably thinking someone will pay him...

I'm not sure where I read that he has played tackle?

One thing posters have been saying did come true...that the Riders would overpay to get good offensive linemen. Mind you, that was a low hanging fruit prediction - O'Day is trustworthy when it comes to those. But good for Yoshi, he deserves to be paid. I just hope he ends up cashing in on all of it. Things just got interesting on the OL. I suspect Richmond will be the new starting tackle, based on how long he's hung around. HOWEVER, Manase Foketi could tell us something about how that works out. If Gray can get the job done, that spot becomes very interesting, because Eli could probably be his back up. They could also seriously consider going with an American RB, or fielding one less Canadian receiver. Another option would be going all import on Defense. As Booch always says...tasty

Why does your name sound like...you own murderers?

Your frost is melting.

You sure? Their D is very good, especially the front 7. Not saying repeat, but a decent team.

Ya, MBT is at least serviceable and actually has a pretty decent durability history.

Edmonton has had terrible OL play for years - all the way back to Mike Reilly and even Ricky Ray.

Most QBs would have piled up sacks in Regina last year-pass pro was beyond abyssmal

If you have a better Bombers news source, do let us know. 😉

Hew many

The alternative is 2008. Remember posts like....Oh Canada he's back?

Well, I guess we'll see. But the truth is, many of us are skeptical because we've seen this movie before It happened with Dave Ritchie and it happened with Doug Berry (after the 2007 season) Then the chickens came home to roost and the team was just not that good

Do not pass Taman...do not collect $200.

Lol. When you've been fishing/eating fish for a week, chicken or pizza in TP on the way home, is the bomb.

Let's say a team has OL issues. A Canadian RB might allow them to start 3 Americans on OL.

Yep. A double big mac used to be enough fuel for the day. And the Angus was a good sandwich - that's gone too.
