[Talks with Mulumba]

Hahaha practise roster player and thinks he deserves the world! I have respect for a guy like Ricky Williams who was legitimately a super star in college and at one point one of the best running backs coming up here in his prime because he simply wanted to play football. If he put his ego in check he could make a good career in the CFL and make good money doing it. Oh well enjoy Walmart!

[Blue Bomber Free Agent List]

If we could pick up Demski in the off season and a guy like Ernest Jackson I would be a happy camper.  Manny is wishful thinking.. but a core of Jackson, Adams, Dressler, Demski, Coates/Wolitarsky would be a big upgrade already. 

[I like Matt Nichols]

Confirmed he played with a broken finger in his throwing hand. That's our QB ladies and gentlemen. Kudos to him for being a warrior and playing through the pain. I really want to see him hoist a grey cup in a blue and gold uniform.

I don't think Bond will be NFL bound. I think he comes back.

Fingers crossed. He'll certainly generate some interest though however. 

[Blue Bomber Free Agent List]

I'd be okay with moving on from a lot of these guys.. I'd love to see Hardick and Bryant back on offence, and the trio of Randle, Heath, and Leggett (assuming he is healthy) I'd also bring back Wild, Dressler, Medlock, and Westerman only if they decided to take paycuts because quite frankly they weren't worth their salary this season. Everyone else on this list I'm in different about. I wouldn't mind have Flanders back either but he may be looking for a starting position on another team and I wouldn't blame him for wanting the opportunity to start.. I didn't even include Bond because i assume he's NFL bound. 

[When do we fire Richie Hall?]

Imagine how many points we'd score if we had a receiving core. Ours is arguably the worst in the league..

[Game 17 : Coyotes]

In 15 games all season only 4 games have we not picked up a single point.. that's a good stat. Especially after a slow start to the season. We need to beat a team like Arizona at home and get the two points. 

[Around the League 2017 - Playoffs]

I'd take Dressler and Medlock back if the price is right. Obviously if they're expecting to be paid like they were this season I think it's time to move on..

[What Changes do the Bombers Need this Off-season to Improve the Team?]

There should be some interesting available free agent receivers... I hate that we will probably have to over pay for an American receiver but our scouting has proved at this point that we do need to do that if we want to give Nichols the weapons he needs to be successful.

Bumping this topic because he's our warrior behind centre. Dude played with a broken finger, lower body injury, and still played great. Dude named his little girl (middle name) Winnie for Winnipeg. This guy is the starting QB we've needed desperately for years and it looks like he's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Matt deserves a half way decent defense and he deserves some more depth at the WR position. But regardless I wanted to once again give thsi dude mad props. What a year, what a leader. Thank you for saving us from Drew Willy and god knows what we'd be like without him.

We'll always have a chance win a good QB Nichols gives our team automatic stability no matter what. Hopefully we can get him the weapons he deserves next year and we'll come back better than ever. 

[Thank You to the Blue Bombers for a Great and Entertaining Season.]

To put it into perspective.. we went 12-6, we hosted a home playoff game and unfortunately we played the hottest team in the league heading into the playoffs. It's unfortunate to be one and done but it was a good season, and I think we're a few small steps away from being even better next season. overall it was a great season and I'm already excited for next year. 

[Hall, Hurl & Hell]

Sam Hurl was terrible in 2015. I thought he was going to be gone last year but they decided to keep him mostly as a ST player and someone they could throw in, in case of injury.. Fine he was over paid but he could play that role for our team no problem, but the fact that he was our starting MLB in 2017 with zero competition is absolutely mind blowing.

Isnt the Gable TD after the blown fake just... Our season on D in a nutshell? I mean 8 9 10 guys carried in to the end zone... I feel if we could tackle esks kick a fg instead. We all knew the D wasnt good enough. Today.. Confirmed it even more. 

That or we're rushing four with eight in coverage and somehow a guy is wide open, no one within fifteen yards of him.. just a brutal effort and game plan by the bend and break defense.

That fumble... Looked like his knee was down to me. 

It was a fumble.. by a split second. 

[3 stars + HH sing the blues.]

Can't give Dressler the nod. He fumbled at a crucial moment. Coates was likely our best receiver today and although he played good today if he is your best play maker you're probably not going to win too many football games. 

[The Turning Point]

It was absolutely the turning point in the game. I really didn't like the call. You know if it works it's probably the turning point in a positive way but at that point it was a 1 point game and there really was no need for it. It was either going to give us momentum or be disasterious.. we gambled and we failed at a time when the game was in the balance and there wasn't a need for a big shake up. However the defense was awful today and there's no excuse for that either.

and there's the thing. Lapo better have whipped up some kind of a wicked running package for the Fever to unleash on the shmoes tomorrow. If he sits in the pocket all day serving up lame ducks I'm gonna be so pissed!

Is Nichols not ready to go?

[3 stars + HH DL stamps out a win]

T.O was outstanding.. coming from the NFL and the early injury problems a lot of people wanted to write him off but he's been really really good down the stretch including straight dominate tonight 

[Congratulations Blue Bombers]

Home playoff game.. First 12 win season in 15 years when Khari Jones threw for a 100 TD's.. great job boys. Remember though.. worst 12 win team ever  I'm thinking we'll see Calgary again very soon!

[Ridirts @ BoLevi's Round 3]

And just maybe.. We have the slimmest chance at first place now. Kicking Calgarys ass and stealing first place in the west would be so satisfying..

[Bombers @ Argos: Depth Chart]

Excited to see Givens get a chance, also happy Dressler is back. When you have Dressler, Denmark, and Harris in the offense you can't say Nichols doesn't have anyone to throw too. Big opportunity to clinch second place and give some of our injured guys a chance to rest up.

[Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)]

Worst 11-4 team EVA 

[Bombers @ Argos: Dressler Return? + Lapo Must Call Deep Balls To Non-Lankfords Edition]

I wounder what Ricky Collins jr is up to! Would be interested in bringing him back in the fold. 

[Kittens vs Bombers GDT]

I think our offense will be rolling assuming Nichols stays healthy. Lions defense hasn't been very good this season and Nichols always brings his A game against the Lions. 

 

Ps.. BC SUCKS

[Stamps @ Awful Masolis / Redblacks @ Ridirts]

Almost 20 years in the league and hasn't won ****. Especially when it matters.. You can only go so far with KG as your QB he's good at making below average teams look average but that's about it.
