Coincidence or not that this was announced after the CBA was agreed to?

Why would Sam Katz care? He's not running for Mayor in October.

Grigsby played well, but Cotton could have probably ran for 200 yards tonight.

Thanks a lot Joe Mack!!!

I'm assuming some tickets are still held back so the number remaining is probably a little higher than that... still that is looking like a pretty good turn out considering we heard just last week that ticket sales were hovering around 24000. It seems all sections are open except for a few which are clearly sold. I'm not so sure there are tickets held back. Take a look now... I'm on my phone. How does it look now?

Pretty sure we could move one of our 6 MLBs somewhere to make it happen.

I'm chuckling over here. No. He proved that he doesn't have the tools to be a head coach in this league, not even close, but for him to crack that top echelon of Bart Andrus awfulness? No, he just wasn't that interesting. His time as head coach will be a footnote in Bomber history. The truly awful ones get their own chapters. A head coach with zero positive attributes. Yep, Burke is one of the worst ever, the only one in his league in Bomber history is Reinebold, and even though his teams sucked his players would have tried to run through a brick wall if that was the play call, so he had some positive attributes. The only head coach I can remember in my time who was worse than Burke is John Huard. I'd but Burke at par with Andrus, Paopao and the American Greg Marshall as head coaches as the next tier of garbage head coaches after Huard. We'll see if Chris Jones joins that crew. Burke IS the worst. Followed by clueless Joe Zaleski & Reinebold. The Top 3 Worst Bomber Coaches of all time. Kelly was worse than Reinbold.

Romby should have some inside info on the Argos playbook. Nice timing for this considering we play the Argos tomorrow.

@PentonKirk: Romby Bryant was out on the field this morning with the #Bombers.

We'll see. I can't see it, but who knows...

I doubt Willy is in the top 50. The others make sense.

Post-Game Traffic Buster Not everyone wants to leave Investors Group Field the moment the final whistle blows after a Bomber game. For fans wanting to let traffic to disperse before heading out, the Bombers are introducing the Post Game Traffic Buster, entertainment inside the stadium after the game is over. Starting right after the completion of the 4th quarter, Bomber TV’s Kim Babij-Gesell and local sports broadcasting expert Joe Pascucci will host a 10 minute post-game show on the giant video boards. The pair will analyse the game, going over the critical stats and highlights, and looking ahead to the next game. Immediately after the post-game show, a local band or local DJ will take to a stage on the field to entertain fans with live music. Once the field has been fully cleared of all game-related equipment, stadium security will allow fans the opportunity to head down to field level to listen to the music and get pictures or autographs with Buzz & Boomer, and the Blue Bomber Dance & Cheer Team. If time permits, Blue Bomber players will also head out to the field to sign autographs. The concessions in the north end of the stadium will stay open during the entire Post-Game Traffic Buster, so fans can continue to purchase food and beverages until the event is complete.

And the remaining 48 will be the entire Argos roster.

Or you could tell us what he said....I am assuming the response is negative but if you could fill us in that would be great. This sounds juicy...what did he say about Burke?

What's the point of a 2 man reserve if they can't play? I've never understood that.

Love the Hinse signing. Can he play other positions on the OL, or just center?

I'm surprised no one has had a "talk" with Burke yet to explain how stupid he looks by constantly throwing his players under the bus and blaming everyone but himself. He takes zero responsibility. He just doesn't get it. He's never getting another head coaching opportunity. Book it.

Nice bet. You'll win. Go Blue!

In practice, yes he was.

We aren't lacking veteran receivers, we are lacking younger imports who can improve and maybe become something more than Kelly or Bryant are at this point in their careers. I could understand kicking the tires on a guy like Bryant if say Nick Moore was out for a month or something. Bringing in Romby on his last CFL legs rather than using those snaps on guys who could be that third imp receiver into 2015-2016 is disheartening. Pretty safe to say the scouting at receiver was a failure when none of the guys who attended training camp were even good enough to keep on the practice roster. Kemp is on the PR.

I just asked O'Shea on the CJOB coaches show and he confirmed Romby will be brought in next week for a workout.

@DarrinBauming: Argos GM Jim Barker tells @tsnmikehogan on @TSN1050Radio receiver Romby Bryant may "catch on with Winnipeg." #Bombers
