Agreed. A week ago, I had two hopes for Harris - move into the Bombers top 5 all-time yards list & move into the CFL top 5 all-time rushing leaders. Obviously he won't be doing the former but I'll still be pulling for him to do the latter.

How so? By saying there's a bit less respect him based on the way he handled his exit from the team? He's still a legend and future hall of famer in this city and his exit will not change that. Nobody is trashing the guy or his abilities but he openly admits he was not in the condition (mentally and physically) he needed to be last season and his reasons for leaving are contradictory. Should we be praising him for this?

Hard to say because his interview was so contradictory. On one hand, he was insulted that the offer would not have made him the highest paid RB on the team but on the other hand, he says he would have considered taking the offer, had Kyle & Osh looped him on their plans. If the offer was so bad, would he really have considered it, or is this just a case of his ego being bruised because he was clearly not being brought back as the starting RB.

He might not be the most respected guy after this past season. He admitted to coming into unfocused and not in shape. He also admits he isolated himself from the team and didn't have the same comradery. In his interview, he admitted family stuff was an issue.

Definitely felt like there was some tension when Harris was being held out and he felt he was good to go. Don't know I'd call that clashing with the coaches though... I would expect every athlete to be itching to get back asap.

I saw it mentioned somewhere recently he was supposed to be getting vaxxed soon (or he was contemplating it). Have to think if more than one team was trying to bring him in, that it won't be an issue by the time the season starts.

Would hate to see him in Green but it would be amusing watching every single gapper trying to delete all the trash they've talked about Harris & PED's over the last 18 months.

They are when you consider the ***** roster Ottawa has.

And what caliber of player did Harris play against in CJFL?

Yep. After GC, he's talked about his initial feelings around the time of the trade and how they've changed as he got to see what we have going on here. He knows where he wants to be, it's just a matter of getting it done.

Agudosi?

An old co-worker of mine told me Canada was doing the same thing about a year and a half ago. He was partially right... there were camps being set-up but not for the purpose of rounding up unvaccinated people. Why let the truth get in the way of a food conspiracy theory though. https://www.portageonline.com/local/mmf-camp-covid-ready-for-use

Too young too... Let him enjoy retirement for a couple seasons.

It's perfectly summed up in the last 3 words. **** the Riders.

His deal is $160K plus incentives so maybe he stands to make much more if he has another season like this past one. I know Walters doesn't like using bonuses due to the uncertainty but maybe this was the only way to get it done and still have room for other guys.

My brother. He used to post here and on OB as Taynted Fayth. He passed away a few days ago and I'm using his old profile picture.

Thank you. We were very different personality-wise but we shared a love for the Bombers. I know he'd get a kick out of me using since I used to bug him about how terrible of a drawing I thought it was.

I don't know if the team will go undefeated on the field but nobody can touch them on Twitter.

In 2019, Rempel was our only LS, and he was easily replaced. Benson was very reliable but if he doesn't come back, I'm not concerned that we couldn't lure someone here given the mass amount of FA's across the league.

My condolences to you and your family. I can unfortunately relate... my brother passed away on Sunday (some may remember him from here & the old OB forum as Taynted_Fayth) so we're also trying to figure out how to hold a service. Not the easiest thing to do at the best of times.

Gordon actually has a background in health care administration which on paper, should make her suited for the role (she was a director with WRHA). The problem is that she was terrible at that job as well (I know this first hand).
