We definitely don't have that many shows on the go but then my wife is often busy with other stuff and I can easily lose hours (days?) gaming... perks of being a dink! ๐

OBG was signed to BC prior to 2021 but never came up to Canada, maybe a bit of a pattern for this guy? -

2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

He was just doing interviews a couple ago about how he was happy to be in Calgary but upset about how Montreal handled his release. Wonder what changed so quickly? https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/2022-alouette-sack-leader-mike-moore-unhappy-with-the-way-his-release-was-conducted/ -
I'd wager that Republicans voters would not give a ****. If Santos was still on the ballot, they'd still vote for him regardless of what was discovered pre-election.

Spend big in FA then cut players before they are due bonuses for showing up to camp. Not a good look, IMO. -

Need to know Juniors thoughts on hoodies and shorts before I can make a determination on if he'd be a good coach or not! -

I don't know if drafting him FROM the Sun is the right way to phrase it. They were one of many stops he's had before coming to the CFL. To say he hasn't had the most traditional career path would be a bit of an understatement: 2013-2015 Usports (Calgary Dinos) *ruled academically ineligible for senior year* 2016 - CIF (Chicago Eagles) 2016 - NFL (Cincinnati Bengals) *tests positive for PEDS and gets cut* 2016-2017 - CJFL (Okanagan Sun) 2018 - AFL (Baltimore Brigade) 2018 - Bombers draft him in the 2nd round. -

Did a bit of reading on him and whatever the Bombers reasoning is, he sure seems like a FIFO-type of guy. https://www.wivb.com/sports/university-at-buffalo-bulls-college-sports/ex-navy-seal-on-ub-football-team-damian-jackson-is-nfl-hopeful/ -
Connor Bedard to Chicago. Anaheim & Columbus drop to the 2nd and 3rd respectively.

https://winnipegice.ca/article/news-whl-championship-series-will-be-played-at-canada-life-centre I'll be interested to see if attendance picks up at a much better venue. Also interesting to see TN getting involved. Testing the waters for the future maybe?

Possibly. According to the CBA, MOSJ would fall under the 4th category of non-counters but those are limited to 2 players so it really depends on who else (if anyone) the team brings in. Non-counters: 1) Players selected in the current year Canadian and Global Draft. 2) Players selected in a previous yearโs Canadian Draft by the Member Club that have never attended a professional training camp in Canada or elsewhere. 3) Junior players not under contract. 4) Two additional undrafted National Players comprised of either: (A) A Player who was eligible for the current or the previous yearsโ C.F.L. Draft, or (B) A C.J.F.L. Player whose junior eligibility had terminated in the previous C.J.F.L. season. 5) A National quarterback who is playing and participating in training camp at the quarterback position. -

I'd be shocked if MOSJ turns out to be anything more than another body in camp. He was an undrafted receiver in a fairly shallow draft so my expectations are low. That being said, if he does manage to snag a spot on the roster, I have no doubt it'd be because he earned it, and not because of nepotism. -
