2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
bigg jay replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I love ET's work but his reports aren't what I want to see. Like his day 10 write-up, for example, was 95% about Schoen getting healthy, 3% about Willie and Adams acting crazy on ST drills & 2% about Lofton coming back in & a handful of guys sitting out. There was nothing about who's standing out, who had a rough go, who's practicing with who, that sort of thing. Like did absolutely nothing happen that day? To me, that's a not a TC report, despite the name of the article. Blue Bombers Training Camp Report | Day 10 - Winnipeg Blue Bombers -

I'd settle for some unfounded hype right about now. 48 hours out from the 1st pre-season game and I've heard very little about camp. Other than Tait's "Training Camp Reports" (which don't really report all that much), there's been next to nothing. Feels worse than usual but maybe it's just me? -

Not quite true. Wilson was getting a lot of reps with the 1st team offense early in main camp last year so there was some talk. He was also listed as one of our neg listers in Sep 2023 and then signed to a futures contract a month later so he was already on the radar prior to last year. The problem is that we don't hear a whole lot about camp in general anymore - doesn't matter if it's an established vet or a rookie. -

He was at their rookie camp a week and a half ago and he's at their OTA's now but I haven't seen him mentioned once so far. Given his status as an UDFA/CFL guy, he needs to standout to have any shot, and so far he hasn't done that. -
I know this has been done in the US (my friends stumbled upon https://juicysfamousfairfood.com/ when they were in Florida) and it gets pretty good reviews. This place didn't have games though so your idea might be a step up in providing that carnival feel. Personally, I couldn't see it being a regular thing for me but I don't have kids so I'm probably not the target market for that kind of place. Would definitely try it a couple times though.

TSN would be lucky to add one of, if not the best QB's to ever step on a CFL field! 🤣 -

Should have but the new commish likes it for whatever reason. CFL commissioner Stewart Johnston a fan of onside punt rule - 3DownNation I don't think he'll be seeing the field anytime soon so he probably won't have to worry about it. -

Yeah LL is definitely dated & would not have been someone I picked but, at the time, it seemed like a pretty big name for a CFL game. Bringing in 50 Cent got them about 20k more people so I think they learned from that. Plus Snoop never turns down a chance to add to his jersey collection and he's big into football. Maybe they can get him doing some commentary since he's done it for other sports! lol -

Doman seems to enjoy his 90's/00's rap music. First LL Cool J, then 50 Cent and now Snoop. Drop It Like It's Hot: Snoop Dogg to play B.C. Lions home opener - 3DownNation -
I'm an Oilers fan and I struggle with this & I'd also add Trent Frederic to the list after his "fight" with Gustafsson. Just so many unlikeable players over there right now.

Tait focused on him quite a bit the other day. Looking forward to seeing how he does against non-rookies. https://www.bluebombers.com/2025/05/09/quick-hits-rookie-camp-wrap-finale/ -
Nope, did a couple appearances in AEW in 2023 but nothing recent. He had a retirement match a few weeks ago against a former AEW guy (Joey Janela) though but that was for one of the larger indie companies.

Record is still intact as it was the latest game 7 winner ever. Tonight's goal also wasn't the latest gwg ever scored in the playoffs either. Kadri scored with 0.1 seconds left against the Blues in 2019 & Jussi Jokinen scored with .2 seconds left in 2009 against New Jersey.

Just because he was released doesn't mean he was at rookie camp. He missed most of last year so maybe he wasn't going to be ready for main camp so cut him now and use that roster spot elsewhere. -
