All the opinions about Eli, at the time, were 100% accurate and fair. Crazy anti vaxxers (religion is no excuse for bad behaviour) bailing on your team before a Grey Cup game.... That's a major problem and red flag. I'm surprised the team (the players) would be so willing to welcome him back, but as we've all said, he's a damn good player that we could really use.

17to85 and I were just saying "that is a lot of nasty assholes on that line"......nobody taking liberties against ZC8, that's for sure...

He is a natural C, which Dobson is as well, plus Kola.......so I'm curious if this impacts Couture at all.

but still.... if you're a Div 1 guy who has a legit shot at the NFL, jumping over to the CIS (regardless of family connections) is not the right path to getting to the NFL. But, maybe he realized he wasn't going to the NFL and was more concerned about getting into the CFL? I dunno, but something odd anyhow...

that was my first thought, too.... wondering if it's an academic thing or what......

Plus he was playing injured for some of last year, too, wasn't he? I don't have any concerns about him yet.

I'm absolutely sickened by this Provorov situation and the league's complete inaction. Their response statement issued this morning is horrendous. Sixero's take here is spot on.

I get that his going to the NFL maybe entices other players to choose the CFL over say the XFL or whatever.... helps the CFL with recruiting........ but enough. I was done with him the moment he called the CFL an unexpected detour. Good riddance and enjoy the clipboard.

the massive OL they signed from WHSFL looks like quite a talent, as well. Only 17 and already an absolute monster...

Kind of a cool Bisons-related story........Bennie Goods was, of course, a good one.....

Alexander and Wilson for a full season would help to make Bighill look a lot better next year....I feel pretty confident in that. He was doing way too much last year, unfortunately, to compensate for all the injuries. My Top 5 remaining would be: Demski Couture Darby Sheed Janarion

And yet there's all this talk on Twitter about how Faj is likely to follow Maas to Montreal...... I don't understand that at all.

Walters has talked enough about the balancing act of keeping a veteran core together, while mixing in new blood, that I'm confident they know what they're doing. Also, how great is this quote from JJ:

If your team lets Faj cosplay a CFL starting QB, that is a HUGE problem for your team...

I've felt this way for awhile now too... Sounds like it's all but done:

Imagine paying 250k for Tony Pip....Christ sakes...

So, expectations are sky high in Edmonton........

Interesting note at the end of this tweet:

a lot of the heavy lifting done, with a few key names left on the board and then some foot soldiers to re-up if possible...

from your keyboard to the Bombers social media team...... here's hoping we see that one next. Walters said last week that he was supposed to be talking with Nicky D on Friday, I believe.... hopefully it's all but announced.

FYP.
