  1. Hecht is Loffler without the height, literally 7" shorter, I can't recall which late season game he played in but he looked brutal defending against taller receivers. Does this D really need an Achilles heel?
  2. I don't know what possessed me to watch that clip but those kinds of shows just sends shivers down my spine. Joseph Goebbels must be smiling from the depths of hell. Highly, highly, disturbing.
  3. Agree excellent series so far, nice to see the focus on the story and not get tangled up in the personalities.
  4. He will probably get at least a half with the first team O. in the 2nd pre-season game to work out the timing.
  5. Sounds like the fine art of snapping the football will be a major consideration in determining who wins the job at center, as it should be. From earlier reports it sounded like Eli was not producing consistent snaps, so it may take him awhile to improve that skill. https://www.bluebombers.com/2019/05/22/coach-oshea-may-22/
  6. It really is a sad realization of failure when one looks at this list from the perspective of the number of Grey Cup victories earned with the Bombers.
  7. Until we get to see a televised game it sorta feels like trying to follow the Second World War via Hamm Radio.
  8. Imagine all of the dead wood the US government could free itself of it they would institute a mandatory retirement age of 65 for all levels of government including the president. It'd be a major paradigm shift in flushing away entrenched values and bringing in new blood.
  9. For the sake of Nichols mental health they really shouldn't practice that play!
  10. I have to believe that sooner or later we will start to see a decline in A.H's abilities and perhaps it begins to happen this year. It could show up in reduced touches in an effort to better balance the O. or through more games lost to injuries, but inevitably it's going to happen as he can't be expected to perform at super-human levels forever. The timing of his decline would be quite manageable this year with Augustine and Oliveira in place to back him up, transitioning to eventually replace him in a couple of years.
  11. Let's play connect-o-dots. https://www.nationalobserver.com/2019/05/17/news/postmedia-lobbies-get-involved-jason-kenneys-oilpatch-war-room "Postmedia has hired a lobbying firm with close ties to Alberta Premier Jason Kenney in order to participate in the United Conservative Party government's new $30 million public relations "war room" in support of oil and gas companies." Nick Koolsbergen, previously Kenney's chief of staff and campaign director in the UCP's winning 2019 campaign, founded the new lobbying firm, Wellington Advocacy in early May, a few weeks after the Alberta election. Not long after, he filed a report with the Alberta Lobbyists Registry, indicating his firm was hired "to discuss ways Postmedia could be involved in the government's energy war room." A spokeswoman for Postmedia, which operates Canada's largest chain of newspapers including the Sun newspaper chain, said on Friday that the lobbying was related to a commercial division of the media company, separate from its editorial staff. This commercial division produces advertising content that appears in its publications in what is known as advertorials — ads that resemble news articles and other editorial content." https://twitter.com/nkoolsbergen/status/1125433864502087680/photo/1 "Excited to announce the launch of Wellington Advocacy with ⁦@reicurran⁩" "Rachel Curran is a Senior Associate at Harper and Associates." https://www.stephenharper.com/harper-associates/ So in essence former P.M. Harper will be working with the Post Media chain to create a ****-storm of disinformation prior to this falls Federal election. Don't be very surprised if the tactics used by Trump and the Internet Research Agency to increase political and social discord among Canadians are used in full force to influence the election. It's going to get ugly.
  12. "Richards was cut due to an injury suffered on the first day of rookie camp in Winnipeg. The injury was believed to be a long-term ailment, leading to his release." Strange, so the Esks. are going to immediately stick this guy on their 6 game I.R.?
  13. No Esks. or Argos either, TSN can do better than this. I like watching pre-season games, sometimes it's the only opportunity to see players like Tiny Montgomery in action before they're cut and disappeared.
  14. Just as a reference Dave Vankoughnett was 6'-4" 245 lbs. in case anyone thinks he looks small.
  15. Where did you see this?
  16. Esks. picked up Spooner and dropped Woods, both were pretty highly rated in their draft classes but haven't lived up to their promise.
  17. Whichever way you look at it's unlikely the Bombers will be able to afford both Nichols and Streveler next season, so that puts Bennett in a great position to step up into the #2 job. Streveler is lined up for a pay raise next off-season, whether he remains a Bomber and becomes the starter or goes elsewhere in F.A. to start he's going to get paid significantly more.
  18. David William Naylor‏Verified account @TSNDaveNaylor 5m5 minutes ago A few more details from the CFL’s new CBA (still yet to be ratified by players) — Pending free agent players will be able to talk with any teams for 9 days in advance of opening of free agency. — training camp padded practices ... was 10 in ‘18, 5 this year, 3 in 2020. 1/2 — global players ... 1 on each roster this season, 2 on each roster for 2020. 2/2
  19. Damaged knee ligaments, will not be healthy until labour day. I can see him getting a lot of attention once healthy.
  20. I'm betting Chi Chi ends up working the booth.
  21. It would be an interesting development if the American media did not cheer-lead this invasion and actually provided a critical voice, something they have not done since the Vietnam war. Unfortunately without a steady stream of body bags filled with kids on the news nightly the American public will not pay any attention to this conflict.
  22. "Roundup", brought to you by the makers of "Agent Orange" and "Dioxin".
  23. Already signed by the RB's.
  24. They're obviously scurrying to get all of their ducks in a row but here is the beginning of the narrative......just sit back and watch it grow. Bloody chicken shits will not set foot on land but will obliterate Iran from the sea and sky.
