Winnipeg, and to an extent Saskatchewan, are good working models on how to engage and retain CFL fans.

How long bad changes will remain would depend on the ego of the commissioner

But does he drive a Trans-Am?

Hang down your head, Ben Dooley.

This is one of the best feelgood stories I have heard in quite a while, and boy, am i gonna root for him to not only make the team but become a star.

Same here. YAAAAY!!

The nature of pro sports is what was old gets revived again sooner or later. Daniels, if he pans out, could give the Bombers the old-fashioned tight end who could block on running plays and smoke d-backs on short/screen plays and be a threat as a receiver. A receiver of that size in full flight would cause many clenched sphincters among 170lb defenders.

He's hella quick and relentless in pursuit.

I am probably out to lunch on this, but his style of play reminds me a lot of Doug Flutie, but who knows what his attitude is?

The reality is that we have had multiple can't-miss quarterbacks come into camp and flame out, so the odds are against Elgersma. That several NFL teams thought highly enough of him to bring him in is reason for optimism but certainly no guarantee, but if you are a Bomber fan, you live on hope.

That's a low bar.

Sneaky political commentary.

Probably gonna need some seasoning before he is able to walk on water.

Can it be? From Facebook:

So much talent, so much disappointment. Someone will grab him on an incentive-loaded contract.

Emergency? Like performing CPR on a zombie?

Brutal Truth: Jets cannot even fail successfully. Coming up: mid-round pick, mid-round finish. We do not need another Cole Perfetti.

There are always intangibles which weigh heavily on performance.

But we are desperate to find anything even remotely Bomber to bloviate about.

Rocker looks to be an interesting signing- comes across in interview as modest and intelligent, with a large skillset as RB, receiver and kick returner.

The novelty will likely wear off.

I still harbour a suspicion that if it was up to O'Shea, Hogan would still be the OC. JJ was probably making Hogan look bad.

Agreed, but his passport does give him some value, although this will drop his stock a lot. This may also smarten him up enough to consider a Bomber offer. Things have changed a bit since then, but there used to have little but contempt by American coaches and GMs for Canadian pivots.

Then, instead of Collaros getting pulped because of a crappy OC and O-line, we would have had Brown getting pulped, but at a cheaper price. Not sure that would have accomplished much.
