[Game Day: Edmonton @ Winnipeg (Pre-Season) June 1, 2018]

Curious to see how our backup QB's look, and our canadian receivers! Happy Football is back!

[Bombers Off-Season Transactions]

I just saw that the Bombers have offered a contract to Nick Shafnisky - a QB from Lehigh University.

[Anyone going to the game in Calgary?]

I'm contemplating buying some tickets.

We went on Canada Day and the game was awful - I'm hoping we at least see some fight here.

That said, the Stamp fans were great to be around and we were treated great by all. It was a good atmosphere.

[Calgary - Canada Day]

I'm coming in from the south. What's the best plan for getting to a game? C-Train, or is there lots of parking near the Stadium?

Actually not that long. They busted the slump last game of the year season before last. Marvelous Marve in the snow

How could I forget that!?! Wins are so rare.

[Breathe...]

The guy I want to see more of is Jace Davis. I think he had 83 yards. 

How did Macho Harris look? Was he out of position? Did he miss tackles? 

Any word on Johnny Adams?

[Calgary - Canada Day]

It's been a long time since we've won in Calgary, but it's also been a long time since I've actually had the opportunity to get to a game. I've planned my vacations the past four years around the Bomber schedule - may as well visit family in Manitoba and see a game, but it's nice to have the ability to see them close.

 

[Calgary - Canada Day]

Anyone going to the game in Calgary on Canada Day?

This is my first year in Southern Alberta after moving from the Yukon. Looking forward to the game!

[Drew Willy named Top Performer of the Week]

Well deserved!

[Around the CFL Regular Season Discussion]

ABT: Anyone But Tebow- slow, poor arm and cannot ad lib to save his life.

I don't think Tebow's game is suited for the CFL game, but he will make the Eagles this year.

Tom House has completely changed Tebow's throwing mechanics and its been noted in Eagles Camp. He's looked accurate, poised and sharp. 

He is a leader, and if he can put it 'all' together, guys will rally around him.

Bryant Turner has a hand injury and was at the doctor today. Mike O'Shea says he may be out a few weeks. #Bombers

[Around the CFL Regular Season Discussion]

Huge loss for #AlsMTL RT .@HerbZurkowsky1 I'm told #Als' MLB @TheBEAR45 has a torn pectoral muscle and will miss the season. #CFL

[Penton: Bombers are "talking to" Lin-J Shell (update: added to PR)]

Realistically, how effective can Shell be at playing Safety by Saturday?

Are there expectations he starts or are they just working him in and getting him familiar with the playbook?

[Lock of the Week]

Cotton.

[Training Camp / Practice - June 15]

Here's our answer for how much time Willy gets:

"All three showed solid aspects to their game last Tuesday in Toronto, and with only one of two games left, starter Drew Willy will have to see some action as well (probably about a half, and a series into the third"

[Training Camp / Practice - June 15]

It's good to have Johnson back. I'm looking forward to seeing guys like him and Addison Richards on the field against the Ticats. Demski got a chance to shine over the weekend against the Eskimos, hopefully Richards gets an opportunity to show his skill set too!

How much playing time do we expect Drew Willy to get?

[Who gets the axe by Monday?]

I guess Fitzgerald got cut. One down.

[Winnipeg Blue Bomber Season Preview]

http://www.tsn.ca/winnipeg-blue-bombers-season-preview-1.297990

There is a video and some perspectives here from some of the TSN crew.

One interesting note from Farhan Lalg:

"The Bombers needed a Canadian receiver to contribute early and were hoping it might be Addison Richards, taken 12th overall, but after an impressive rookie camp, he has yet to take part in main camp because of a hamstring injury"

I don't know if that's official or not.
 

[Bombers TC/Practice -- June 11th]

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 49s49 seconds ago

Drew Willy appears beyond pleased OC Marcel Bellefeuille is now on the sidelines instead of up in the booth like he was last year

[Preseason - Game One - WPG @ TOR]

Sammy Brown, Jhomo Gordon, Shaq Richardson, Goossen, Chung, and Allen are all guys I will be watching tonight.

I'd like to see Willy lead the team for a TD on his first drive and sit the rest of the game too

[Preseason - Game One - WPG @ TOR]

Will the chat room be active tomorrow night? My internet is slow up here in the Yukon, so I'll be listening to it on CJOB instead of streaming the game on TSN, but would still enjoy the extra insight/dialogue!

[TC Report - Day Four]

I'd love to hear how Shaq Richardson & Johnny Adams continue to look.

How does Sammy Brown look? I'm curious about our DE competition.

[TC Report - Day Four]

O'Shea says Bryant (lower body), Leggett (upper body) and Richards (lower body) are all day to day

[TC Report - Day Four]

#Bombers WR Greg Childs had a suspected Achilles tear in practice today: OShea.

[Boring Training Camp?]

It would just be nice to get a few more reports from camp. It's not boring - there are so many great positional battles going on, but we just aren't hearing about it.
