Ex Bomber RB Ronnie Brown looking super ordinary for the RedBlacks.

Don't see much progression in Crums's game, he is what he's always been, a white bread and butter sandwich. He'd make a decent backup but that's about it.

Stumbled upon this guys gamecast last week, the amazing thing is the crazy bastard has 1.1k following him. It's so bad it's actually entertaining.

Not so much, they had Nevis for at least 2 years prior and Poop Johnson had one good year before Stove came along.

Thanks one specific link that works, whoever manages that site needs to be fired.

Can't find the door, only see the link to last weekends game!

You're correct Rutledge, Darby and Lawrence all kind of slipped away with no obvious diminishment in their play, much goes on that the eye can not see and no clear explanation is ever provided.

There is no explanation for Rutledge being demoted, he played well on the field, so it must have been something that happened off the field in the realm of FIFO.

As mentioned earlier, maybe Barriere gets picked up by the Stamps to reunite with his former coach Beau Baldwin. Wilson got comfortable real fast in that first game, I'd be surprised if any other QB is going to dislodge him from #3.

Do they still have the life-sized bobble heads ringing the concourse or was that just a time limited promo?

And where do the Argos find themselves heading into this season, and think about why it was allowed to happen?

Echoes what Andrew Harris said when he joined the Argos in 2022, he found the animosity that existed within the dressing room hard to comprehend.

I don't know if you listen to O'Shea's press conferences closely enough to comprehend the message he continually puts out. Here are a few constants. 1. He relates to and likes intelligent hard working blue collar players. (Kramdi, Jake Thomas, Woli, Schoen, Neufeld) 2. He likes players who are willing to teach, as the coaches do not have enough time in the day to deal with slow learners, if you're dumb your chances of making the team are not good, no matter the physical talent. 3. He rewards commitment and longevity as any union boss would, he's also pro-Canadian. 4. He respects the veterans in the room to protect their culture and choose their teammates wisely, assholes are not tolerated.

Post-game press conference, O'Shea stated they weren't in a rush and wanted to take advantage of the time they had to evaluate fully. Could be no more cuts till final cut down.

Jake's explanation for the late signing was he was fully exploring his NFL opportunities.

It sounds like he was mixing up Jake with Clarence Denmark, who was cut then brought back to finish the season.

Don't see that happening early on unless Schmeckle proves ineffective in games, as it deprives him the path he needs to take to eventually replace Jake and perhaps his desire to re-sign with the Bombers in the off-season. When Lawson returns O'Shea may be forced to make a tough decision on which players to choose.

Maybe Arbckle will have a resurgence like Nichols did when he came to Wpg., he was on his last legs in Edmonton after being demoted to play behind phenom James Franklin, just before he was traded to the Bombers.

When was that?

His wife is from Regina, in the end he may not get to make this decision. 😄

He did not leave the Riders on good terms, that may be at the heart of his indecision. Jones cut him after Taman previously deferred his salary after coming back from the NFL and taking much less to play in Sask.. Money that was promised but never paid.

One man's perspective.

Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming · 1h Mike O’Shea says Cam Lawson may return later this season. He’s likely to miss more than six games.

Unlikely scenario, you know nothing like that will happen as it negates continuity and chemistry, 3 DT's in rotation is adequate, probably Fox, Schmeckle and Jake to start the season with another import on the PR. Haba and Garbutt taking over from Jeffcoat with an import DE hopefully developing on the PR.
