Looks like Ryhmes got what he wanted out of BC. Just announced an extension.

Rhymes to the Riders then?

no no, instead they made CFL mix tapes stop producing highlight reels. Cause why let a young person help your brand grow? Their core fans are approaching retirement age, they don't need no kids liking the CFL!!!!

Was so frustrating listening to him fawn over Rourke last year. Especially his inability to understand that half a season of work isn't more impressive than a full season of work.

Sankey turned the latest rider offer down. Would have made him 2nd highest imp LB in the league

Seeing reports that Stove is going to hang em up, on Twitter. That'd be a blow to the Lions and the CFL in general. Hope it's just a rumor. Love watching that guy play football.

But it's still not officially the team. The only announcements I've seen from an actual team are the ones when they're re-signing their own players.

Are teams announcing this? I've seen 3down and other media people, but I can't recall a team actually doing it. The agreements are not binding at all, like not even a little. Any player can change their mind at any point until the contract is signed. The tampering window was only made a thing officially, because everyone knew it was happening unofficially. CFL made it a thing, which is smart imo, as we're talking about the CFL for the past 6 days or so AND we will be talking about the CFL once FA starts. Basically added another week of mostly positive CFL news.

Oh really? I also assumed he was CND. Does TO come to WPG this year?

I swear I thought he was a FA

Good for Harris, one more crack at it. Wonder how this impacts AJ Oullette(spelling?) future with the Argos. If it's one or the other...kinda hard to roll with Harris...

Yeah I read after I read that quote I just assumed that guy doesn't know about Eli.

Yeah I've said it before that I think he has everything you need to be a successful CFL qb.

Had a solid year for sure. But I think the knock on him is his Inability to stay healthy.

I don't understand why anyone thinks we're bringing in a QB for the backup role. We already have that. Brown is and will be the #2 qb again this year. Maybe we bring back Prukop...but other than that I see us getting a rookie/young guy to develop on an entry level contract. Dane Evans will not be in blue and gold this year.

From what I understand, throughout their History the 1st year of any war is always a total **** show for the Russians. They're known to just throw bodies at the problem and eventually wear down their opponent. These reports of Russia failing should be taken with a big grain of salt. They aren't going to turn and run for years (some think decades).

Yes...it will all be rescued by the all knowing and all loving Private Sector!!

I actually thought the riders would get him back. He's the 1 rec that would actually work well with Harris. He is basically only a YAC guy. But no, they go get a guy who is only a deep ball threat...lol.

I didn't want to go find it. But it's a quote from a real tweet by PP.

PP: We should defund the CBC!! They're just a mouth piece for the Liberals! CBC: We think the leaders of the CPC think of us as an extension of the Liberals! PP: CBC FINALLY ADMIT THEY'RE A MOUTH PIECE FOR THE LIBERALS!!

Imagine comparing what the L'ks did last year to what the Bombers are doing this year? Lol. I wonder if there are any details that might be missing, the nuances of it or something... Also read over there that the Bombers have just been lucky....for like the past 8 years...its just smoke and mirrors...lucky bounces....CFL conspiracies!! Definitely not good-great teams from top to bottom...no no, 8 years of luck!! We've said it on here before but it can not be repeated enough..RIGHT NOW is the best era of Bomber football we've ever had!! Remember to appreciate it folks!!

265k is a a bit high...and 300k is hard to swallow...but the cap is supposed to increase. And Walters knows what he is doing, that I have no doubt. If he signed him at that it's cause they could afford it. #FortHew

Can anyone provide an actual source for the Wieneke numbers? I'll take a 3down quote or tweet cause that's all that's really available for any deal right now. riders signing our leftovers

That makes sense too.

I honestly think it's Bailey that didn't want to re-sign. He is obviously very passionate and confident. I can see him wanting to take on a bigger role and be "The guy" on a team. I personally don't see that happening. But I don't think it was the bombers who passed on him as much as it was bailey wanting to see what else he is capable of. He knows he wasn't going to be the guy on this team. I bet he's in Green and white by June.
