*cough*...

Anyone who goes by "Chez" or "Chezzy", I'm completely out on.....no thanks.

the stadium is in a phenomenal spot, and I don't buy any of the bullshit surrounding it's location for one second.....it's always going to be inconvenient for someone. I LOVE where it is....

he's not even on the roster.....so yeah....he's a scratch.

Bauming's personal opinion....nothing to back that up.

pro ball is done in both Edm and Cgy and Edm lost their lacrosse team to Saskatoon. Trust me, Winnipeg has way more going on and way LESS people....

they wanna be as close to 100% healthy as possible in November, and they're right to do it....

^^

Yeah, I'm thinking it's less disparaging than we're assuming. "Healthy" scratch is more like it. He felt he was ready and coaches wanted to give him another week to be 100%....more likely.

That doesn't make any sense, unless there's some weird off-field stuff that hasn't come to light...

Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming · 7m Jeff Hecht tells me he’s good to go Friday vs the #RedBlacks. Chris Matthews told me the same, adding he’s excited as it feels like his #Bombers debut once again. Mike O’Shea says all players battling nicks and bumps are “good,” but will not make a determination on anyone.

the Argos got him for a bag of used jock straps....

as mentioned, the Bombers had a closed practice today, so there won't likely be any updates on the roster until close to kickoff Friday. The depth chart tomorrow will have some answers, but as we know, that can (and likely will) be a bit of a smokescreen...

@JohnDHodge Bombers’ national LB Jesse Briggs could be gone for season. #Bombers #CFL @3DownNation

Fenner's been about 50-50 so far this year, and I'm not sure if that's good or not, based on the system.....

so much revisionist history re: Burke. At the time people were terrified we'd lose him because he was THE hottest commodity in the leagues assistant coaching ranks. Canning Lapo was absolutely the right move, and at the time it was the right move to hand the reins over to Burke, because we were going to lose him otherwise. Just a total fluke that he was the shits as a head coach. Shame...

Begging.........for a mod to lock this thread..........plzzzzzzzzzz?

based on where we were when The Trinity took over to where we are today, it is insane to me that anyone can question how much better off we are with this regime in place than pretty much any other available in the league.

100%...there's nobody else it COULD be....

We've had a family cabin on my mom's side at Victoria Beach since about 1925, and at a couple of different points, my dad has lived at Hillside, and now he's been at Belair for a year. The East Beaches holds a special place in my heart...you're definitely in for a treat down there.

If we can get back on track a bit....... Today is the Bombers last practice of the week (they took Monday off and are doing walk-through tomorrow) and it's a closed-practice, so we won't know much about injuries until probably right around game time. Tomorrow's depth chart will have a couple answers, but as per usual with MOS, there'll be some guessing until just about kickoff....

the best season of Bombers ball since 1990 was 2001, period. Full stop. End of discussion.

Players don't want anyone knowing about their injuries, so MOS keeps it close to the vest. It's been said that the players really appreciate that he doesn't put that info out to the public.

I don't know if Sportsnet has ever even bid on CFL football....certainly not the last couple times it was up for grabs.
