Noeller

I'm honestly most excited for the first session of Irving/Brown/Tait sitting around BSing about football for 2 hours....there is nothing better! Huzzah for a new season!

I never at any point thought he injured but all of a sudden the Bombers beat guys are like "#BreakingNews Stanley Bryant is not injured! Just being rested!" Ummmm.....well yeah.....

I stood there in shock for what felt like an eternity and eventually my exact words were "You guys are going to be lucky to win a single game!" Him: "We have the best defense in the lague!" Me: "We took your best defensive player! How???"

I think that glorified Word document they released yesterday is going to be it for the game...

There's this older fella here in town that I've known since I moved here in 07, and he's a die hard Riders fan...has been since the 60s, I'm sure. He's a nice enough guy and usually pretty knowledgeable about stuff. Yesterday he tried to tell me straight up that the Riders defense is the best in the league and will single handedly take them to the playoffs, if not the top of the West. I was incredulous....

Guards, no question it is......Tackles.......that concerns me.

Yikes to our OL tonight...good thing Nichols isn't playing....the back ups will be running for their lives...

I legitimately laughed out loud at this new poster defending the Riders NI starters...

??

Lol @ Thomas being cut. We've heard nothing but how good he's been in camp YET AGAIN this year. I'll never understand this hate on people have for CIS guys that weren't high draft picks. Not only will Fatboi make it, he'll play a lot of snaps...

OMG Thanos snap got Foketi and he never made it back!!

I find it curious that they mention Foketi.....it would seem he at least remains in their plans....

Amazing roster....we have been fortunate.

it sure is...for the Esks game, anyhow.........as per the Bombers.

that is the dream, right there.....it's a shame about the TSN contract, in a way, 'cause I could go for some of this all season long...

this is MASSIVE.......if I could get this for EVERY game, I'd be happier than a pig in ****, I'll tell you....

I'm curious what the thought process is on a 6th OL....does it have to be someone who can play multiple positions on the line well, or just be able to fill in for someone else who can...

@Dave_CHED Following practice HC Jason Maas confirmed that QB Trevor Harris won't play Friday in Winnipeg. About 20-30 players won't make the trip which includes most of the vets. #Eskimos #CFL

well expecting anything from Sun Media is your first mistake....

Bauming and Tait have had a lot of quality stuff. There's the "fluffy" features, sure, but the casual fans really enjoy those. For us, there's the daily News n Notes column that Tait does. Bauming has a lot of tweets about stuff happening. Between the two of them, it's pretty good...

@DarrinBauming Chris Streveler hits a streaking Kenny Walker in stride on a go-route down the sideline. This is a positive sign as Streveler says he needs to improve as a passer, and medium/deep accuracy and timing is always at the forefront of this. #Bombers #CFLTC

@TSNDaveNaylor Further on CFL CBA ... the crux of the matter that almost caused a strike on eve of training camp: CFL and CFLPA agreed the ratio of starters would go from 7 to 10 but three of those could be veteran Americans (3 years with team or 4 in CFL) who would count as Canadians. League insisted those 3 veteran Americans would count as Canadians towards the starting ratio and the roster. CFLPA insisted they were to only count towards the starting ratio not the roster. If applied to roster, would have likely eliminated bottom 3 Canadians on each team. Players got their way so that the three Americans (3 years with same team or 4 in CFL) will apply only to ratio of 10 starters and not roster of 21 Canadians. That apparently is now clearly stated in memorandum of agreement between CFL and CFLPA

Considering the injury and rehab SJG went through, it's a remarkable comeback and he's playing at a very high level...

I regularly search eBay for those jerseys. I have a 63 that I'm quite fond of...want a 71 sometime...
