Lions released Dakota Prukop.

Is he even playing?

The CFL shud bring back the rookie off-season camps. I know the league stop them for cost reasons because I believe they were beneficial for the new guys to adapt to the CFL.

Stove also made the team after being a training camp addition.

If anyone was hoping to go to a practice on Saturday you are in luck as they are now having one. Saturday, May 25 Practice: 3:00 p.m. - 4:25 p.m.

The Outlaws season 3 is coming out next Friday on Prime. Great little show with Stephen Merchant, Christopher Walken and Jessica Gunning (currently in Baby Reindeer). The show doesnt seem to get much hype but whatever. Here's the trailer from season 1.

That's something alot of new players mention when they get here. Veterans put the team first are willing to help out the new guys. The vets will do what it takes to help coach up guys to help the team get better and win. It's a stark contrast to when guys like Troy Westwood would ignore the new guys as they were in competition for the same job.

Seems like a nice guy.

And there's a flag on the play..... wait.... wait... we are being told its just a towel.

Injured olineman Kendall Randolph had be re-added to the roster. The Bombers transferred Castillo to the suspended list to make room for him.

The Bombers used to have Bob and Doug doing their broadcasts, but I'll tell you..... The Riders have the real hoser.

So do the Riders have 25 or 19?

Bombers that aren't playing in the first pre-season game: Zach Collaros 8 QB A Brady Oliveira 20 RB N Injured Veteran Dalton Schoen 83 WR A Nic Demski 10 WR N Injured Veteran Ronnie Blackmon 15 WR A Tyler Adams 74 WR A Keric Wheatfall 79 WR A Josh Johnson 84 WR A Isaiah Coulter 73 WR A Josh Vann 81 WR A Patrick Neufeld 53 OL N "retired" Tui Eli 65 OL N Jake Thomas 95 DT N Adam Bighill 4 LB A 6 game injury Kyrie Wilson 19 LB A Max Charbonneau 39 LB N Deatrick Nichols 1 DB A Brandon Alexander 37 DB A Jamal Parker 7 DB A 6 game injury Evan Holm 31 DB A Noah Hallett 23 DB N 6 game injury Patrick Rogers 3 DB A Michael Griffin 38 DB A

This is totally laughable. Farhan is almost suggesting that the CFL should pay Rourke's salary since he would help drive up ticket sales across the league. He talks about Rourke selling tickets to Stamps games in 2022. Well, the Lions' 2 games in Calgary averaged 22300 fans. The Bomber game for comparison had over 25k.

They'll prolly watch the NFL kickoffs this season to help determine if they want to go that route. These are the changes for the upcoming season: The league also announced it was ratifying other rule changes for 2024 directly relating to low blocks and decisions made by the command centre. Low blocks have been adjusted to further define the actions of a backfield player delivering a low block. Backfield players may block a defensive player low who is lined up across, from, or outside of the offensive tackle at the snap if the block occurs in the legal low block zone. The league also removed the requirement for the backfield player to be within the legal low block zone at the snap to make the call easier to officiate, while also heightening player safety by limiting who can be legally blocked low. No yards has now been added to the list of penalties that can automatically be picked up by the command centre if called incorrectly by on-field officials. Replay officials can only become involved when a clear mistake has been made. Tripping the quarterback behind the line of scrimmage has also been added to the list of penalties that the command centre can assist on and is now challengeable by a coach. Coaches are allowed to strategically use a timeout to provide the command centre with more time to automatically review a play that is not challengeable, though only one timeout can be used after the three-minute warning in the fourth quarter. Coaches still only have access to two timeouts per game. https://3downnation.com/2024/05/17/cfl-kickoff-rules-unchanged-in-2024-subcommittee-formed-to-examine-future-changes/

If O'Shea passes Grant in playoff wins then undoubtedly he would be the top coach in Bomber history. Bud has 15 playoff wins and Mike sits at 8. You'd think a few Grey Cups would be included in those additional wins.

Cool interview with Kody. He talks about being a college teammate with Strevy.

The Bombers never explained earlier today why they only announced 6 cuts when 10 players had to be removed from the roster. Now we know the other 4 moves that were made. The CFL transactions page has Parker, Bighill and Noah Hallet moved to the 6 game injured list and Neufeld was moved to the retired list. Hopefully Neufeld isnt actually retiring.

Hey @Noeller Reacher is gonzo.
