Stickem

Hey guys I can remember back in the day (yeah I still have recall) that when Grant, Ploen and the boys were dominating the west we would go into Regina and the locker room talk would be...and I quote...' how many points do want to beat these turkey's by tonight'....Oh for a return of the 'good old days'

That's why he's a perfect fit in Regina

Although a lot of players got their shot,I'd say the majority are still in it to make this club....One pre-seasoner is hardly a measuring stick about who stays or who goes...Second one against the green guys should make the picture a little clearer but even then it's going to be a tough call on a few of our newbies....A few stand outs for sure...the German guy on special teams looks like a find and probably sticks....otherwise I see some good talent heading for other clubs....For all of the hype I thought Lawler and Whitehead were a little disappointing ...Didn't see much of Richardson but he did make good on one play and sacked a startled schmoe qb....Have to say that Nelson might just have won the kick returning duties...What happened to Rasheed Bailey....don't recall his name being mentioned at all...Maybe next game when a few of the hopefuls get more playing time...In any event it's going to be a tough cut down day no matter how you slice it

I suggest he's somewhere out there in the Ether ......and has become conspicuous by his absence ...almost ghostly and mysterious I tell ya...

You have those kind of relatives too eh....I have a sign on my front gate...says all are welcome....relatives make an appointment

If he ever has a drink somebody better be standing by with a mop and a bucket

Very poor reporting when a vet. wasn't reported as missing....Someone must have noticed or are all of them walking around in a bloody daze....Could be Foketi thought he would be expendable at any rate...Should have showed up though and at least made an attempt to keep his job...

Funny though how a Grey Cup win can make that all go away

Certainly nothing wrong with the Nichols/Streveler debate....Let's put it this way....a little push to keep your game sharp, by a guy who would like to have your job, can only be good ...They're big boys playing a big boys game....they'll feed off each other and that can only be a good thing for the club...Great to know we have the kind of talent we need to win it all at the pivot position

Best reporting I've read in awhile......clear and insightful ...good on ya Atomic

Unfortunately you're right....He was lights out first year...after that not so much.....He seemed like he was saving himself all last year....I guess for free agency

Lucky has landed.....here we go Bombers

Can Jon quarterback......?? Guess they're set at the position if he can ,because he sure can kick (and that's it folks)

Tait of the freep has a good article on Chris....I have a petty good memory going back to when Matthews first arrived...Credit 'Mike' who frequents the board for saying, at that time, something like...'this guy has to be signed to the Bomber roster'...and was a little down when he left...like a lot of others on here...He's the big bodied...clutch catch player ,we've always needed, and the Bomber club is going to be a force in 19' with him on it

FANTASTICO......was waiting for this one........smiles a mile wide on Nichols and Streveler's faces with this signing....Bombers going all in this year

So where is his career now.....So far, for the time he's played he looks like he fits the 'bust' category ...Is he still on Montreal's roster?

Looking forward to see how our revamped D is going to perform as well as the O Line....Some departures have me a little concerned BUT it looks like we have signed and drafted some nice prospects to fill the holes....Can't wait till the guys take the field and show us what they have....Getting closer ....tick...tick...tick

I think it's very telling if no other club expresses interest in aforementioned draft pics after their departures...The term 'bust' would obviously apply....Could any of them make a 'comeback', so to speak, after their release....History says most likely not and crapshoot becomes the apt term for our draft

3rd. down says Elimimian going to sign with either Cats or riders.....If it can't be us .....GO CATS

1957 eh Fred.....why you youngster lol...Same year my dad and I walked into Wpg. Stad. and became Bomber instant fans...I thought as well that this was a win win for Walters....Easily we won this draft and not just because we had those 2 first rounders

I'd like to see a top flight O Line guy at 4 and Betts at 5............we could mess that up though.................................

Let's just say I think they have the necessary moola.....The family is heavily invested in the Montreal area and if any bunch can get this franchise back to respectable it's them....I can see why the league would back them as the new owners and that would be 'secure and reliable'

Thinking one year rental may be 2 in the Peg cuz Biggie and Solo are besties...

Yeah but we're so deep....Isn't that what everyone keeps telling us...I don't see any way but down for this club now....Better make some off-season adjustments and build back to at least what we had last year.....Management better review Maurice as a viable option going forward next year, and if there was a locker room divide, he and his philosophy have to hit the road....Those last minute losses...not only in the playoffs but the reg. season are glaring....So much promise flushed....time for some changes Chevy

So that's good enough for you....well it sure bloody well isn't for me and a lot of other fans....IF we go out next game that's a regression from last year...You only get so many kicks at the can and we might just be shining up the golf clubs after Sat.....So many expectations for this club to go deeper in the playoffs this year...IF it doesn't go that way then there has to be changes ...This team has a lot of talent but obviously there's an ingredient missing that costs the club in the late going...Still have A SHOT but it's an uphill and we're behind the eight ball...I hope to hell I'm wrong and we pull this thing out and advance to the next round...if not...there'll be a lot of unhappy fans ...especially those hard nosed faithfulls who stand out there on Donald
