Can't wait for training camp to start. The Big Blue came so close to winning the Cup that it was an absolute tease. We go through this every spring- the impatient waiting, the poring through the signings to see any blue-chip prospects loom, reading through training camp reports and hoping that the deficiencies of last season are addressed. Its a ritual really, but a familiar and welcome one that heralds a new campaign.

Excellent. I live close to the stadium now. I'll be out quite a bit

I've been out of the loop. When's training camp start. I'm ready for my favourite time of year

Will be very interesting to see the Bombers profit for next year if the team continues to be successful on the field 

Wade would be an interesting choice, but I don't want to lose him from the Bombers.

Let’s give it up to Damian Jackson. Jackson sacrificed himself so MBB could talk about Full Backs. We salute you sir. A true American  hero and cfl legend. 
 
Damian Jackson man, that dude was something, ex marine, the few the proud, perhaps like his fan base but Damn it dude is a MBB.com legend. 
 
Does make you wonder tho which scrub Osh will get a boner for this year tho. Always one it seems. 

Just show me the injury stats for kick returns and prove this isn't all based on anecdotes and speculation.

Man I don’t like the auto scrimmage from the 40 after a td. Maybe if it’s a none offensive td and make it automatic after a fg. 
 I’d rather move the teams closer and make it slower speed for td kick offs. And or the no one can move until the ball is caught. 
 
Kr is a pivotal part of the Canadian football identity. 

This is an insane take.   
Have you never heard of Chris Benoit?   I've met several people (mostly wrestlers) and MMA/Kickboxers with CTE and it is very obvious that some of them cannot process or think properly and have something very off with them.    
I've also visited nearly every reserve in Manitoba numerous times and what you are saying is something completely different.  Some reserves are fantastic and others remind me of the original Mad Max movies.   For the bad ones usually it has rampant corruption within the reserve where they maintain terrible traditions or behaviours such as pimping out girls when they are 8 years old to friends/family,  lots of alchoal and abuse,   lots of extreme neglect,  all while the bad people are protected by the elders.   Lots of suicides are a result from extreme depression and extreme abuse without being able to escape because everything is covered up.   MMIWG exists because nearly every case is someone within the reserve committing the crime with others covering for each other.   It's really sad.   Suicides in reserves are primarily with younger people ,  I remember 5 or so years ago visiting a reserve where they had an epidemic where 20+ teens committed suicide over the course of one summer.  Naturally the news never covered it.
Usually for the people who can escape these places and find success in life do not commit suicide when they are 50+.  It seems far more plausible that CTE would be the reason.   Many times it is a vicious cycle where someone is in extreme pain from the CTE so they take drugs and the cycle continues to a point where they are so messed that they usually OD.   
 
 

Finally something I can unequivocally agree with you on

You have a real lack of understanding of mental health issues, the factors that lead to them, and the outcomes of mental health. You should educate yourself rather than making unsupported claims. 

The Firehouse Sub at Kildonan Crossing is set to open end of April. Ill be there soon after.

I actually just got another trailer for this year, while we're on the crappy deep fried food crap.
Trailer is called " Deep Fried Diablo"
Deep fried cheese curds
Df Cheese cake
Hand dipped corndogs
Df chocolate bars
Df ice cream sandwiches
Df oreo churros
And lemonade
Will be in manitoba may and June before we head west for the summer months... give it a try if your in the neighborhood!

Unfortunately with such limited space in a concession trailer having a fryer  dedicated to GF isn't really practical.
That being said -- I'm still learning these new items and trailer, and what it's capabilities are. But my immediate thought is it's hard to pull off when your trying to move a line.
HOWEVER,  during the weekdays of May and June we'll be set up in parking lots. I'll put a post in here and tag you and get some gf curds for you. I mean that.

For me it's not so much the accuracy but the logic behind the picks. 
For example, you can't convince me that the Bombers will go with 2 FB's in their 1st 3 picks of a fairly deep draft because of a "glaring need" at that position (according to Hodge).  That's where he (and their site in general) falls way short.  When you look at how the Bombers use a FB, what makes that a glaring need?  Mike Miller, over the course of 4 seasons with us had 8 catches (10 targets), and 3 carries.   Is that the kind of production you'd want to use a higher draft pick to replace?  I get there's more to the FB role than the odd carry or catch but that's easily replaceable without using draft capitol.

Sure, I’ll put together a mock when it makes sense. Since I know I’m who you’re asking about.
Remember the mock drafts I shot down last year? And how I told you it was a bad draft year? I do. But in case you don’t …

First overall pick went 16, nailed it. Our first pick at 8 went 20th, nailed it. 10 and 11 (as OL, nonetheless) went 48th and 57th and their situations didn’t change at all. I’m not criticizing his mock draft because he’s a bit off. I criticize it because it’s never even close, because he has no clue.

Providing up to date information is what they do well. But, as soon as they start adding their perspective and opinions, they're exposed as bad amateurs. 
Hodge being one of the worst.
