2....him and either Hansen if back or Karomoko

Teams only need to field 1 Global player. 

Rosters are now 44 players but teams have the option to dress an extra National or Global player as a 45th player. The Bombers went with 2 Global players last year.

The team may only go with 1 Global this year as Maruo wasnt signed and Hansen is a pending free-agent.

My cannot miss event of the summer #3 (alongside Burt BlocK Party and Banjo Bowl)

https://greatoutdoorscomedyfestival.com/gocf-winnipeg-manitoba/

3 night event this July... Tom Segura, Bill Burr, Nate Bargatze headlining... Bobby Lee, Gerry Dee, Jessica Kirson supporting...

Outside on the Lyric lawn at Ass Park... on sale now...

If I only go VIP for on one night I'm thinking VIP Friday, general admission Saturday... as much as I love Ol' Billy Redface I'm an even bigger Tommy Bunz fan and I'm exactly immature enough to be entertained by Bobby Lee.

Yeah, the comedy festival should be a good time. I might just go to Sat and Sun as I've seen Segura before.

I'm interested to hear what the Block party line-up is go to be though. They have changed it up this year and its just one weekend (Thurs Aug 22 - Sun Aug 25).

Hopefully Friday's acts arent ones Id want to see as there is a Bomber game that night.

I have this sinking feeling we are going to lose both Brady and schoen. Boy I hope it’s wrong. 

For what its worth the Bomber store still has Schoen jerseys but no Oliveiras.

I take that as a good sign that Roadhouse will be back.

They also signed 5-10 receiver Aron Cruickshank from Rutgers. He was Steelers camp last year.

yeah, Kelvin McKnight as an example.

Bombers signed defensive tackle Kenneth Randall today. He was cut in training camp in 2022. Interesting that they would bring him back.

I’ll be honest. Love Jake and everything he has done. He should be on the cheap and be backing up Lawson. 

Btw, Hodge says Lawson is making around 135k.

Bombers sign American offensive lineman Micah Vanterpool. Might be an interesting prospect. The guy is 6-6 315 pounds.

Looks like Vernon Adams is the latest QB to rework his contract.

Come on Zach, everyone is doing it.

Assuming the Williams deal for the Argos was about freeing up salary space.

The Argos have already paid a bonus to Williams.

Cfl has poor forward thinking and at times focuses on the wrong things

Yeah, its a shame they got rid of off-season mini-camps. I think bringing them back would improve the on field product especially at the start of the season.

Another head scratcher is why they havent brought back CFL week especially since the combine is in Winnipeg this year. Its a great marking opportunity lost for the league.

Feeling like there's going to be quite a bit of turnover. Wouldn't be shocked if only 6-8 of these guys are back when camp starts

I'm surprised the list hasnt been whittled down a bit with retirements and player releases.

The team for example said that Darby wont be back so why not just release him now?

Probably no other team looking for an Import FG kicker, 6 out of 9 employ a Natl.  Bede and Faithful being the exceptions.

Maybe he'll sign with one of the 3 Texas based UFL teams.

Not yet!

Ayers was one of the names revealed from our neg list this year, he's been on our radar a while.

Bridges and his North Dakota State team won 70 of his 75 games (including his redshirt season)... played and won 12 playoff games and 4 national titles. Goes on to win the IFL championship as a first year pro. All the guy does is win! Bounced around a  couple NFL camps before landing here.

Bridges would have played with Holm and Brady.
