But while they are here that is what they are making and I never included food.Do they get paid during the 2 bye Weeks? If so then it's 20 weeks+housing +food.If you are on a practice roster in the CFL you will need an off season job.The CFL is not a league rolling in $ .Gate $ is a more important figure than the NFL.The more players make,the more we are charged for tickets.Ive done alot more for alot less at times just for the love of it.Thorpe wanted off,the Bombers said OK.There are hundreds more willing to do it.

Some old farmer math and figuring. There are more than 4 weeks in a monthso so-$750 x 52 weeks =39,0000/year ÷12=$3250/month Housing or allowance $750,(?) +$3250=4000 /month or an equal of 48,000/year For being on the practice roster (not quite cracking a pro lineup) that is not all that bad while pursuing your dream job.

Unless there is a complete gutting of management LaPolice would be wise to wait for another opportunity and it will happen.

They are a hot mess.Fire up the guillotine and start the executions.

Great stuff MR DEE

This is a huge game for the Riders.They lose,Bombers win, and they are 6 points back.Thats way to much ground to make up barring a Bomber collapse with isn't happening.

Even the boys on the Big Show were hard on him for it.Westwood in particular was on him for it.It takes alot for the local media to turn on someone.I actually enjoy most of our local sports people.Wicek is the exception. Seems to me to be a very bitter man.He has probably been left far behind his peers as they have moved on and he sit and rots for writing crap like that.

The two earlier RTP calls are completely debatable.I have no understanding of how anyone who doesn't despise the Bombers (Ripper,Climie)could question the helmet to helmet.on the last series.

We pulled something out of somewhere.Totally agree about both the kick and Nichols run,and Harris being Harris

You and me both

Wow! One of my favorite old movies and I never thought about what a perfect comparison the 2 are.Well done Mark!(slow handclap).

This is as pumped as I've been in a long time for a season opener. A Win would be glorious!

Very Cool!

Yes! Love it.Nice to see Durant rub their noses in it a bit.

A big thanks to everyone for the camp reports and other general info.I rarely check the papers now,I just read Tate's stuff and here.

I tried to hang out on both sites for a while (lurk mostly) but just slowly faded away from OB.I feel a nostalgic remorse at its demise but it's been a long time since I drifted back to check it out.

Very interesting.I just read it on the Bombers site.I hadn't heard anything about this.Could be a real boon for IGF and the Bombers. It could also be an utter disaster,but nothing ventured nothing gained.

I'm generally not that critical of Winnipeg press except for one.Paul the weasel Wiecek.Total dislike.

I'd totally forgot about That! Thanks for the memory jump start.

Stupid Flanders!(had to say it)

Didn't look good.

Something out of nothing by McDuff

Ya Anderson really does look good.

Thanks for the reports everyone . They're much appreciated.

Does anyone know who else is seriously looking for a kicker?
