White Cop Shoots Black Man, Charged With Murder
Interesting take on the "purge" story, TUP. You're putting a little bit of spin on that one. Here is some more info on the events being referred to, for anyone interested: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2015/04/how-baltimore-riots-began-mondawmin-purge

Blue Bombers acquire defensive back in trade with Calgary
The Stamps lost their left tackle to us in the off season so they are looking for a new one. They still have Edwin Harrison but he has a lot to prove and Huff isn't one to hand starting spots to people. Expect a lot of competition for their left tackle spot.

No, he signed right after the draft, he wasn't a mini camp guy.

Blue Bombers acquire defensive back in trade with Calgary
Well, you'd better let MOS know, 'cause that guy doesn't know a damn thing about NIs starting at the MLB spot........... Ya I know, real funny eh? Even funnier that both he and Kyle Walters have said in the past month that Sam Hurl is ready to be a starting middle linebacker on TSN 1290. Like I said, we'll see.

We'll see. Doesn't make any sense to me to start Sam Hurl at WILL.

More likely WILL candidates. Hurl is going to be the starting middle linebacker, no doubt in my mind about that one. Maybe releasing Nixon makes room for Marcus Ball..

Bombers sign WR Lavasier Tuinei
Should be some decent competition for that boundary WR spot.

Canadians in the NFL Draft
So far, as expected, through the first 3 rounds of the NFL Draft no Canadians have been drafted. Christian Covington, Brandon Bridge, and Tyler Varga are all expected to be drafted today, possibly Brett Boyko as well. Lots of other prospects might get NFL chances after the draft is over though. Justin Dunk is breaking down some of the NFL interest in Canadian prospects on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JDunk12

I think they will keep Manitoba in the name regardless of whether it is Moose or not. What goes good with Manitoba?

Just bought a Crompton jersey online

Sign Willy!
Crompton took his team to the playoffs, Willy didn't. Therefore Crompton is the better QB.

It's all about managing the SMS. Do you think Miller and Walters are stupid? No do you????

Now all your favourite players are going to have to be cut to pay for Willy!

Grooveshark Dead
I don't know if anyone else here used Grooveshark regularly but it was pretty sweet. Basically you could just stream any song you wanted for free, make playlists, etc. I never felt like it would be around forever but this is pretty unfortunate. http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-32547376

A couple Bomber moves today...
Really interesting to see the approach of the Bombers compared to other teams. As far as I can tell, no one else had a big cut down today. The Lions aren't even close to the roster limit.

A couple Bomber moves today...
Like Floyd said, our SAM will likely come from the collection of DBs. MLB will almost certainly be Sam Hurl. That leaves the WILL LB, which will be one of the rookie American LBs on our roster right now. Benton, Lamar, Tate, Wilson, Nixon. Or we could go with a Canadian at WILL and one of the Americans at MLB. But that seems less likely to me.

84 players on the roster right now. Need to be down to 75 by tomorrow apparently. Some guys might be non-counters, particularly Reaves, Pierre, Everett, and Griffiths. I'm not sure though, I can't remember the exact rules surrounding non-counters. Either way, they're going to have to ship out a few more guys in the coming days.
