And how is he supposed to get a work visa, just go ask for one or pick one of the visa tree? Elgersma has to provide documentation, including contracts, in order to qualify and he hasn't had that until now. Even with a contract (as seen by the Dobson situation), it's not a guarantee he'll get one.

Yep, it was Dobson. The USFL didn't generate enough revenue for their players to qualify for work visas. Bombers sign 2021 third overall pick Liam Dobson after failed attempt to join USFL - 3DownNation

I hope all his vaccinations are up to date!

Apparently Elgersma is still trying to get a work visa so that might be why they brought somebody else in. If he's not able to get one before the season starts, they need a 3rd QB.

Yes, that's his family's business. He worked there before getting into politics.

If he decides to run again, he will probably win, unfortunately.

It's not just us though. If MOS thought Hogan was doing even a halfway decent job, he'd still be our OC. The fact that he was demoted, speaks volumes.

I don't know that it's going to be pinned on the air traffic controller. Emergency vehicles are coordinated by the ground controllers, not air controllers and even if the ground crew gave the truck clearance, a plane coming in for landing has the right of way. The ATC was recorded as having told the truck to stop at least 10 times so what more could he have done? He was also recorded as saying he messed up but another ATC told him that he did everything he could. There doesn't seem to be any record of what the ground controllers were doing/saying so that's probably what the investigation will focus on. There doesn't seem to be any communication between the ground crew, air crew & the truck.

Collaros looked cooked 10 years ago because of his injuries - the fact he's healthy & still playing at all is remarkable.

She was on a couple seasons ago too and wore some bison earrings to represent Manitoba. This is season 50 so they made it a big all-star season of returning players - gives you an idea of how well she did if she was asked to be a part of it. She's had a few players from her first season and this season up to Winnipeg - lots of Instagram pictures of them at Jets games.

Very little residential will be very close to the stadium. You have the rapid transit station to the North/North West & campus land to the North East providing a buffer. Those areas are bordered by Sifton road which is meant to be the main retail area of the new development with coffee shops, pubs, banks etc. Here's a better look at what's planned - it's nothing like Ottawa. They are also very actively promoting the proximity to the stadium (and other facilities) as a major selling point so people buying there should be well aware of those considerations.

If the Bombers really want Vaccaro, they've got to give up something and that might be what it takes. I can't see Vaccaro still being available at 4 when we pick but it's the CFL draft so who knows.

He struggled a bit early last season (that terrible game against the vikings was in 2024) but played fairly well after that.

He must have used ChatGPT to see the projected depth chart where he was listed behind Darian Durant. Chase saw the writing on the wall and decided to hang them up.

Is Chat aware that a lot of those listed are retired or playing for a different team?

Jacobs brings home the gold.

It's official. Tickets won't go on-sale until March 6th leaving just 5 weeks for them to sell tickets - very odd timing. Wonder what happened in Ottawa to make them back out.

Late comeback sends the men to the Gold Medal game. First team in Olympic history to come from behind in both the quarterfinal & semifinal games & advance to the finals.

It's a Fight Night card not a PPV so it won't be insane (for an event like that). I also wonder if the relatively short notice will affect ticket prices? Under 2 months until the event is unusual, especially since it hasn't even been officially announced yet. By comparison, when Vancouver had their Fight Night this past October, the card was announced in June so they had a lot more time to sell tickets (even AEW tickets have been on-sale for 2 months now). They may price this one lower to try to move tickets quickly.

Nothing... absolutely nothing.

They should meet in the middle somewhere, not every CFL rookie falls into that category so it you might not need to scrap or adjust the cap entirely - just allow a bit of wiggle room for these higher level guys. Maybe allow each team 1 rookie cap exception or something so we don't have those guys sitting out rather than playing.

Overall it's probably not too bad for their QB room - they got Dru to take a paycut so they had room to be aggressive in FA. I also don't think Dinwiddie is 100% sold on Dru yet so he wanted to make sure they had the best possible back-up they could get. He's been saying good things about Dru & has declared him their starter but also said they would be exploring all options.
