He must have used ChatGPT to see the projected depth chart where he was listed behind Darian Durant. Chase saw the writing on the wall and decided to hang them up.

Masoli looked like he'd aged out really badly -- was a step behind everyone else on the field last year. Too bad because I think the guy's got guts and he gave us a game to remember in the 2021 Grey Cup, but Father Time is undefeated.
When I saw Tyree Adams play, both before his injury and after, it didn't look like he was running the offence, it looked like he was running around. I am definitely not a QB coach, though.

Pull Dane Evans out of retirement.
At least he knows our D. (He doesn’t like it…but he knows it.)

The most notable memory I have is Chris Brazzell Sr. was his dumb awkward tackle-from-behind on the Milt Miracle play.

I'm just gonna say that would be up to Osh. Other than that, if they think Bethell-Thompson can still play then sign him. If not, find somebody else. We need a veteran. Someone who gives us a chance if Collaros goes down.
He's been hanging around year.

who really effin care's about a Canadian QB....like really....People need to care more about "legit" Canadian stars who are getting it done...for succesive yrs....Guys like BO...Demski...just on the Bombers alone....Skilled position guys...Valuable to a team's success guys...Why do people get fixated on a QB all the time....it's pointless and never gonna happen
Rourke is Canadian by birth only not by training and how/where he developed.....Ford...Yeah was all everything in the CIS...And hot assed garbage in the pros' and history and all likelyhood Elgersma will be too...He got the look he did, based soley on his body type as it fit what used to be the dream MFL stereotype, and even that is changing now and U.S trained and born guys like him are not the sure thing they used to be

I actually heard, he specifically dislikes SpeedFlex27 and that's why he's not in the CFL.

I will say again, too many people have entirely too much thought invested in a guy who is at best a prospect.
When he actually shows up the ln let's start investing time and effort into thinking of him, until then he really is a non-factor.

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

yeah, I felt the same about Kevin Glenn after the 2008 season. Good thing we moved on from that guy!

Drew Wolitarsky Retires as a Blue Bomber - Winnipeg Blue...
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the signing of Drew Wolitarsky to a one-day contract so he can officially retire as a member of the football club. Wolitarsky, 30, spent seven of his eight Can.

Sorry to hear that 2025 was a slog for you Johnzo. Hope 2026 is much better in every way, you deserve it! 👍

Not for me, I don't really pay attention to the Jets until playoff time.  The NHL regular season is too long to really get invested in.

2025 was a slog for me you guys, and not just as a Bomber fan. 
But I'm looking forward to 2026.  May the new orbit bring you all good fortune.

This maybe should be in the Grim Reaper thread but since it's CFL related, I thought I'd post it here. Former CFL player Barry Wilburn died yesterday in Memphis in a house fire. Wilburn was 62 years of age. Wilburn played for 3 CFL teams during his time in canada. The Saskatchewan Roughriders, BC Lions & Winnipeg Blue Bombers (in 1999). He also played for Washington & the Philadelphia Eagles. What a horrible way to go. Condolences to his family, friends & former teammtes.

Crum to Maier is a high-cost downgrade.
cold!

For backup qb MBT. For receiver Kurleigh Gittens Jr.

ICE isn't really seeking out specific people, at least not in their showy ops -- they're swarming people who, according to their small, smooth brains, do not look like Americans. This is why they are hated so much and why people in Minneapolis are following them around with whistles.
(Please forgive if this is too much politics for MBB)

If ICE wants to muscle in on a million person parade in a city that ******* loathes them, they're welcome to bring it.

that would be a big surprise to see. Dude lets players play through their struggles and doesn't even like to take out Collaros when the Bombers are on the good side of a blowout.
Not pulling struggling Zach doesn't bother me so much -- Zach's upside is far far far greater than that of a Terry Wilson or even a Streveler. Multiple times over his career he's gone from zero in one quarter to hero in another. If it was someone like Taylor Powell or MBT or Brown on the bench behind Zach, someone who's proven he belongs in the CFL, I might feel different.
So unless MOS abruptly changes his ways, only a ZC8 injury will result in significant backup reps.
Zach has been actually been pretty durable the past few years -- started all 18 games in 2022-2024 and started 13 last year, and one of his missed games was the BS piss test one.

100% disagree. It's one thing if you have someone like prime Streveler who can be really effective in giving you that kind of look that can put a D off-balance. But for the most part you're not getting that level of production from backup QB's. They have so much information and pictures available now instantly that this tropey **** about "seeing some snaps from the sideline" and putting the backup in just to provide that has no purpose. If you have a weapon like prime Streveler (he was not that guy in his return from the NFL in 24-25), yeah use him. But that's pretty rare.
I don't think you'll see someone play consistently bad and not get pulled if there's a belief on the team that the next guy up would perform better overall.
