where is this coming from? This was still his first contract right? 2+1 as opposed to 1+1 no? Yes that's correct. There was no extension. The letter is simply to inform the player/agent that the team is picking up the option year. The player/agent does not have to agree to it because they already agreed to it when the contract was signed.

Ok but how about when you're throwing 50% in practice and in games? Then what? If he's not improving in practice then he's not going to get any better in games. Please. I've been to practice and training camp dozens of times over the last 3 years and he looks the same as he did on day one. Overthrows and underthrows the most balls of any QB we've had here in that time. It's naive to think it will get better by playing in games. Well then if he's looked the same to you then I guess that's settled. I will definitely not believe the other reports that Goltz has improved, since you have now clearly said he hasn't. Believe what you want to believe... I really don't care. I know what I've seen and the coaches' reluctance to start Goltz backs it up.

Getting Goltz to be more accurate is something that can be coached in practice. I'm thinking that they don't have the patience for it right now. The sense of urgency is still there with the coaches, even though it really shouldn't be anymore. He's been here for 3 years and his accuracy hasn't improved at all... how long are they supposed to wait? We all know how much game experience he has in those 3 years. Not much. It's not time to give up on him just yet. What does game experience have to do with accuracy? That's the one thing you can work on while running the scout team and even in the off-season with whoever he wants to throw the ball to. Playing in games won't make him throw a more accurate ball.

Hopefully this incident will inspire the league to start operating more like a legitimate pro sports league and less like Hollywood Upstairs Medical College

Ford has been beyond useless this season. I'd rather give reps to Anthony Woodson.

Great movie!

Really it is the CFL's fault for not following their own rules.

There can literally be endless reasons.

Kirk Penton ‏@PentonKirk4m There's a chance Aaron Kelly could play for Doug Pierce this weekend. #Bombers Kirk Penton ‏@PentonKirk11m #Bombers still haven't decided on a quarterback. They'll see how Max Hall's hand is in the morning. Goltz got nearly all reps. Kirk Penton ‏@PentonKirk1m Looked like James Green was going to be out for a long time, but it was just a bruise. He practised today. #Bombers

I'm sure that's not far off... except for Poblah. Not much use for a receiver who can't seem to catch the ball right now. If Denmark and Poblah are both useless... at least Poblah's got the passport, and we maybe look at Bo Smith at safety. Or an american-made saw horse to replace Morley/Swiston. I wouldn't say Denmark is useless. He is second in receiving on the team. Now say what you will about the team's receiver situation, but until there is a better option, Denmark keeps his job. I'd say Pierce has to make an impact in this game or it will be him losing his job to Kelly or MSW.

Are you guys kidding? He will be signing in the NFL. The whole point of getting out of the contract was to get to the NFL, not because he hated the Ticats.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming4m Justin Goltz and Max Hall trading plays under centre with the first-team #Bombers offence today.

He's injured

Some updates courtesy of Kirk Penton: - Max Hall throwing passes, Goltz still getting most first-team reps - Washington, Wild, Jovon Johnson all back practicing today - First team receivers: Pierce, Denmark, Edwards, Watson, Etienne - Greg Peach is there practicing in uniform (#90)

IMO, Khari was a good QB who was able to foster some uncommon chemistry with great receivers. I don't buy that he was mediocre and certainly not that his stats were "artificially inflated", whatever that means. He was good, and his receivers were great.

I like this signing if he is healthy enough to play. He is an upgrade on Freddie Harris and he will also push Kenny Mainor. It doesn't look great because the DL is the least of our concerns right now, but he will make a strong position even stronger. Just because we need DBs and OL doesn't mean we should be passing up on opportunities for better players in other areas when they arise.

He is injured a lot but he did get into 15 games for you guys last season.

According to CJOB. Look out Kenny Mainor? Or maybe just looking to add to the rotation. Hall-Mainor-Peach isn't a bad DE rotation... http://bluebombers.com/article/blue-bombers-sign-defensive-end-greg-peach

Ejiro Kuale with his mighty ZERO career sacks. Some assassin that is...

Well they're trying Andre Douglas out, maybe he'll be better. He was pretty good in 2010, maybe not as good in 2011. We also still have Aderious Simmons on the PR.

One more week. But who knows whether they actually pull him off or not.
