I'll switch my pick from Ham to TO with Evans out.

Agree. Woli is way more reliable than Bailey.

Exactly this. Also curious to see how BC does when the weather gets cold and they are playing outside.

1. Woli - has been consistently reliable all season, great to see him jump off the stats page too. On pace for close to his best season. 2. Brady - seems to have turned the corner is running angry. 3. Rose/Houston - corners on lock down HH - Grant - game finishing return TD, but earlier than that had 3 tackles on the first two INTs and the fumble. Only chance the Als had to win to was to take those to the house.

Exactly this.

Not to mention ZC is great at putting the up there and letting the receiver go get it.

He's got a video on his youtube page of his XFL highlights where he blocks a couple punts.

Ya that's a brutal clip. Hard to argue diving at and wrapping up an oline's shins is anything other than intent to injury. What did he think that he was the ball carrier? Haven't seen a clip of the play by Boyd on Roberston that Rider fans are so mad at. Anyone have it?

BC has some nice depth at receiver. Wonder if anyone will shake loose once Burnham returns.

Not sure what the criteria to make the Bomber HOF are but here's where they rank anyway: (Reid) ranks seventh on Winnipeg’s all-time rushing yardage list with 4,505 yards, behind Roberts (9,987), Leo Lewis (8,861), Willard Reaves (5,923), Jim Washington (5,736), Gerry James (5,541), and Andrew Harris (5,402). (Walls) made 47 sacks in 82 regular season games with the club, which puts him in a tie for fourth all-time in team history alongside Elfrid Payton and behind only Tyrone Jones (98), Tony Norman (59), and Doug Brown (52).

At the time didn't realize how lucky we were to go from Roberts to Reid. That 260 game was something else. Walls was fun to watch and made a lot of plays. Didn't know he stayed in Winnipeg after football.

Didn't see a week 2 thread going yet. Hope this doesn't indicate that Collaros is injured.

Glad the Bombers acted swiftly here. Hope the days of teams covering for abusers is over (at least in the CFL, I don't have much hope for the NHL, NFL etc.)

Could see the possibility of signing him to let Leggs focus solely on FG kicking.

Ya Bell got the penalty for taunting.

They absolutely want to become martyrs. They want the cops to get violence so they can claim to be victims. Why else would they put their kids out in front of them and dare the cops to do something. Disgusting cowards.

Exactly, these occupiers have no clue. They have a right to protest peacefully just like everybody else. Trucks don't have a right to protest. Commercial vehicles don't have a right to protest.

I think he'd be worth a look for that 3rd import spot if the price is right. I thought he was older but he's only just turning 30.

Ya best option available at this point. Hope they bring in another young QB to compete.

Can't go wrong with anyone from the back to back champs.

Well said. It is crappy situation all around but it sounds like the team had reason not to trust the AH would be 100% ready for this season AND AH had reason to feel hurt by the way the team handled trying to sign him again. That article didn't come off a as a one-sided hit piece to me at all.

Agree here. Hasn't show much in games but apparently is great in practice. That only takes a guy so far.

Sad to see Darvin and Harris go, but it had to happen eventually. Darvin isn't the receiver he once was, but he was still a hell of blocker and great guy to have on the team. Made some big plays when it counted in the 2019 and 2021 playoffs. Nice finish for him in blue and gold catching the game winning TD in the cup. Harris clearly struggled with injuries last year but looked great when on the field. Too bad they couldn't work out a deal but had to move on to younger guys at some point. He no longer had to be the focal point of the O with Collaros around. For a few years he carried the team, but the team improved enough that he didn't have to carry them anymore. Wish him good luck in TO and glad he's not playing in the West.

How is a signing bonus taxed at a lower rate? Is that a US thing?
