I nearly cried reading this tweet. Get that second dose in me now...........

I will say this - it's a much more cautious approach than either AB or SK took in their re-opening. Slowly phasing it in over the entire summer, rather than just flinging open the doors at the beginning and hoping for the best. Looking at this from the Bombers perspective, 50% capacity by the start of the season (August 5th) if vaccination levels are met....it's not perfect, but it's something.

My concern right now is that they get the season rolling and then B1617 takes hold and everything has to be shut down again. Things are really trending badly right now in the Variants vs Vaxxes race...

About two weeks ago you told me the league was dead and everything was awful and the sky is falling and why even bother getting excited......I was pretty sure someone ran over your dog.....

I saw a thing on Twitter last night where one of the beat writers was saying that the unreleased new schedule apparently has Edmonton vs Ottawa on Aug 7 as one of the first games, and I stopped and went "What I wouldn't give right now to watch something as meaningless to me as Edmonton vs Ottawa CFL game right now...." I'm just so ******* excited about an upcoming season. I will watch every second of every game that I can. As nice as it was to have hockey, I'm just not THAT big of a hockey fan....but CFL......my Christ, I will never take it for granted again.

33% protection with 1 dose. Significantly more with 2 doses. Unfortunately it's spreading way faster than we can double vax people. Right now, I'm just praying we can get the numbers from the 3rd wave down enough that when it starts all over again, we have room in our hospitals and ICUs... And just for reference, the UK was nearly 50% double vaxxed when it started ravaging them. We're about 15%, nationally.... So it's gonna be bad.

Naylor actually said he's not sure on that.... So I guess we'll see!

Ya that Delta variant.... It's gonna **** us up real bad. Alberta is gonna be a mess just as they're throwing the doors open.

I'm sincerely hoping this happens....keep the stupid people away pls.

it's such an Alberta move to privatize provincial parks. Absolutely sickening.

re: single game betting........

Vaxx passports coming to MB! (Fantastic news!)

Naylor reporting that there'll be a conference call on June 14th to decide whether to kickoff August 5th. The only thing that might be a hiccup is the assholes in Toronto and Montreal, but hopefully the government will give enough guarantees re: fans in the stands, to get them on board. Players sure sound like they're coming to town in a couple weeks and getting ready for TC....

We lost because Scheifele and DeMelo were huge losses that exposed our depth, which had been heralded around the league following the Dubois trade. I also believe there were guys playing very hurt and not close to 100% in this series. It wasn't even the same team that went up against Edmonton. I truly believe that. If they can find a way to upgrade the D depth and continue to draft and develop up front, this is still a very very good team. And I believe in PaMo.....he's not the problem.

Hockey is done for another year. So glad CFL TC opens next month!!

I had a feeling he might be back after @Booch told us he'd likely be back.. Booch batting close to 1.000 on stuff like this!

Bombers TC in about a month!!

(just posting the Naylor tweet directly) Weeeeeoooooooo.... Football is really gonna happen, fam!!

Lost to teams playing in rubber boots at the start and then somehow figured it out. Andrew Mangiapane is a good hockey player????

Literally zero chance that anyone has thought of this and planned for it. Better give em a call....

My wife sure thinks so........

Biggie posted a picture on his socials of him training with his WBB helmet on and captioned it something like "time to get ready... #GameOn" I really think stuff is happening!

Hellebuyck was great and deserve better from the team in front of him. I am absolutely done with PLD, I think...
