sweep the leg

CFLPA offer of $5.8M cap increasing by 3% each year was just rejected by the CFL, per Madani.

I totally agree on this Me too. I like Hall.

Edit: Deleted my post. I know better than to respond to Brandon in a topic like this.

not the smartest thing to do, im sure you get caught doing that and you wont be allowed back. why would anyone live stream a practice? It just doesn't make sense at all. It's almost like doing a disservice to the team. I'd suspect if people live stream a practice, that's the last one they will open to the public. All good points. He probably hadn't thought about any of that until you pointed it out.

Yeah they are a sect of the Mennonite faith. If you go to the Steinbach Mennonite museum you'll see the migration maps from Europe to North America. As far as I know there are no Amish people in BC or Manitoba. There's an amish settlement (is that the right word?) between Gladstone & Neepawa.

Doug Brown said that after the last round of negotiations one of the owners commented that they "bent the players over the boardroom table". I'm not sure why they brought this guy back again. I'll have to watch the PA's press conference now. I've read in a few places that it was amateur hour.

Never happen. Maatta is worth more than Kane by himself, never mind adding in a 40 goal scorer. Postma is a throw in.It would take a huge offer to pry Maatta out of Pittsburgh. Maata is not worth more than Kane. If he is then Let's trade Trouba for Crosby. That's not much worse than the other trades you've come up with.

Penton saying that the Bombers have extended Greg Peach. Also said the Stamps signed Gerald McRath.

A cap team isn't going to want a backup goalie who's making nearly $4M/yr. A good backup option for them would be a guy like Stalock from SJ or Johnson from Boston.

Wonder if we'll see him join Johnson in Ottawa?

So much for the league not negotiating publicly.

Maybe he thinks their NI talent isn't what it used to be. When they were stacked he could take those chances.

Nice to see another DE signed. There aren't very many listed on our roster right now.

Bobby Orr. No dman would have come close to his numbers if he had stayed healthy. Lemieux was the most talented guy I've ever seen play the game. It was unfair how much better he was than anybody else on the ice. Lemieux on those Oilers teams from the '80s would have been crazy. He made Rob Brown a star...

It's pretty crazy that he ran the ball over 900 times in college.

I had a blueberry beer at Luxalune in Winnipeg, but it didn't have any blueberries floating in it. It was really good, but I wouldn't be able to drink it all night.

Beat me to it. Interesting signing. If he can stay healthy he could be a good one. That's a pretty big if though.

Darren Cameron ‏@Darren_Cameron 1m #Bombers announce the club has signed veteran running back @KevinSmithRB.

Agreed. There's lots of talk that the Sharks want an upgrade in net. Miller is probably their best chance to do so.

I'd take Trotz on the Pens any day. I don't like that they only fired Shero w/o Bylsma. Any GM worth hiring won't want to keep Bylsma anyways.

I wont disagree but I enjoy Fox news for a) entertainment value and I like to hear multiple views on issues. Its the crazy rights and crazy lefts that have issues because they will blindly believe everything their "source" tells them. Its like the wing nuts that absolutely know that 9/11 was a US government conspiracy and the buildings were detonated...if they were even there (because they were holograms) or that Aliens abducted the Missing Plane. Like sure, maybe Aliens did do it, but that wasnt my first thought. lol The problem with this analogy is that those wingnuts don't have their own tv station that millions of people watch religiously. Fox is able to potray their conspiracy theories as news. Fox News is entertainment if you're smart enough to take it for what it's worth. Problem is there are a lot of very uninformed people in the US who believe everything Fox tells them. (Obamacare death panels, for example)

Yeah that was such hypocrisy it was stunning. You want to claim how "open-minded" and freedom-loving you are, yet if someone wants to dedicate a news channel to reporting news in a way that you don't agree with, then censorship is the only answer. Just pathetic. I can't stand hypocrites. If you say you believe in something, then stand by it, or just shut the hell up. Wasn't the fight over making it mandatory for all carriers to provide, rather than just being able to exist?

Nice work ladies & gentlemen. Easily the best forum to talk Bomber football, & arguably the best one in the league. It was great we could bring in guys known around the CFL like Rids & TBieber. When they're added to our veteran posters it makes us, IMO, the most knowledgeable fansite in the league.
