    I know you didn't ask, but we don't get many out to lunch TC reports anymore, Used to be that a couple posters in the past would bang the drum hard for some guy, get our hopes up, and then that dude would be released a couple days later. Nowadays, there's no real hyping up of guys in camp enough to know who to be disappointed about. lol

    Last year I really liked the looks of running back Jordan Salima but the team ended up keeping McCrae.

    There was also lots of hope that Barrington Wade would make the team.

    Was talking about some of the new WRs with a buddy yesterday and we got to thinking, 

    Who’s your all time cut you were sold on? 

    Mines for sure Russ Michna. My 18 year old self thought we’d finally found the answer. 

    Abraham Morlu for about 30 seconds too. 


     

     

    Kenny Stafford was a surprised cut at the time. 

  3. Hey @Noeller are you playing the new Beyonce on your radio station?

    How do you feel about non-tradition country artists like Jelly Roll being labled as country?

    Personally I dont have an issue with Jelly Roll as I think he's a good singer and I like his songs.

    One of my favorite songs back in the day was All Summer Long but it still seems strange hearing Kid Rock on country radio.

    So this 12k promo money is from a seperate fund that teams pay players for appearances etc. Teams need to spend atleast 110k but there is No maximum for this fund.

    Yet another CFL policy that fans are left in the dark on. What would prevent the Bombers from paying Brandy 100k for player appearances and allocate part of his salary to someone else?

    For sure it was. Especially considering he did it twice.  Doesn’t change the respect I have for his natural talent though. 

    I had dinner with Milt a few years (a friend won a charity auction) and he said he roomed with Blink for their first trip to Montreal together.

    He said he didnt see Charlie from the time they checked in until they were at the stadium the next day. 

    Blink went on to lead the team in rushing and receiving that night so Milt said he decided not to confront the issue and just let Blink be Blink.

    The question is would the Bombers had won more cups in the early 2000s if they had team leaders that inforced the FIFO attitude? Was Blink the problem or lack of leaders the problem?
