  1. James Franklin this coming February. We won't be the only team after him; apparently Chris Jones really wants him in Hicksville.
  2. And we haven't scored over 30 points in how many games?
  3. Can't remember the details but a few years ago some Bomber fan posted somewhere that the next guy to bring a Grey Cup home to Winnipeg may find himself dipped in gold and planted on top of City Hall. That post has stuck in my mind ever since.
  4. I remember one practice at Canadinns when the back-up QBs started fooling around and tried to throw a ball into the upper deck. They couldn't but Bishop picked up a ball and easily made the throw.
  5. I didn't know this:
  6. That's not on the scouting staff. They found Collins but it was the coaching staff who released him.
  7. Willy moving up too: http://www.cfl.ca/2016/07/11/dunks-quarterback-index-willy-moving-week-3/ And check the bottom of the page. Dunk has Leggett and Posey on his Team of the Week.
  8. I was reading an interview with Chris Walby earlier today: BTW, it's quite an interview:
  9. I don't want to spend 40 years walking in the desert. Twenty-five years is quite enough.
  10. Not just Lawrence. I expect Hamilton will send their whole wrecking crew into our backfield, like they did last year when they crushed us 52-26.
  11. I'm not sure that I even care about what happens for the rest of this year (barring a miraculous turnaround). But in the absence of miracles, in the off-season I'd like to see us go after:
  12. This guy's tweets are getting Riderfans knickers in a twist:
  13. That's just not possible. Harris had 5 tackles against MTL and I think I would have noticed if he had 40 tackles against CAL.
  14. I don't have any animosity towards MOS but he's just not producing the results we need, Somebody posted this on the cfl.ca forum: IMO, nobody's going to get Clements out of Green Bay, but what do you folks think about the other two? OR, do you have other ideas?
  15. Gotta love Westerman's attitude:
  16. Apparently Smith didn't follow instructions and called his own play yesterday. He was immediately pulled and chastised. Next day he's cut. The way Jones is running the Riders is beginning to remind me of a Junior High School I used to attend.
  17. It's the end of the pre-season and Owen's already in Regina (0-2). Here's hoping that he stays there for the regular season.
  18. So last year was just a bad dream then. If you want to see fans dissing other teams (especially the Bombers), try visiting Riderfans.
  19. In 1964 Leo Lewis was pressed into duty and went 2 for 2 with an average FG distance of 42.5 yds . But that was after our regular kicker George Fleming (also black) got injured. You have to navigate to get to the player's pages but this is from http://cflapedia.com/ BTW, Fleming had a very successful post football career and ended up spending 20 years as a Washington State senator. http://www.blackpast.org/aaw/fleming-george-1937
  20. Apparently, Banks was held up by some legal shenanigans involving an ex-girlfriend and the two kids he fathered by her. Sounds like she got her money.
