[Chris Williams signs in Ottawa]

Is it that strange that Desjardins came up with a nice payday for Williams???This is the guy you must remember,that cut a million dollar cheque for Casey Printers when he was with Ham. Sky is the limit with Desjardins..lol

[Dan DePalma]

This one is going to come back and haunt the green guys. Excellent.

[Non-Jets Playoff Action]

That sure as hell looked like a deliberate attempt to injure by Subban as far as I'm concerned....And they gave Buff four games for his transgression. Something wrong with that picture. What a load.

[Bombers add Jordan Reaves to neg list]

Well spoken confident kid. I wish him all the best for his attempt at making the team, and looking forward to see what he can do on the grid iron. Good luck Jordan.

[Bombers draft & FA camp prep]

Regarding Harris and his reasons for leaving the Peg. He was in with a rough crowd. His Dad lives in B.C. and that made it a little easier for him to leave. His reasons for coming back to the Peg. I believe his girlfriend and daughter live here, (apparently she doesn't want to live on the coast) and so that would be a very important family tie in Winnipeg and reason for coming back. In any event I'm sure Andrew has had playing for the Bombers on his mind at one time or another ( he said as much at the last Cup game we played the leos) Whether that ever happens is up to him. He's built a nice life for himself on Van. Island and Van...has a lot of friends there so I would say he's a very torn person. I would luv. to see him in bluengold but like I said before...that's up to him.

[Alberta, Taxes, and Socialism]

But all the financial problems Alberta faces are the fault of the people who live there...according to Mr. Prentiss. It is only coincidence that Alaska has 106 billion dollars in their heritage fund and Norway 450 billion. Not the fault of the party which has been governing Alberta for some 70 years.

 

 

All Albertans have to do is ' look in the mirror' and voila..there's the problem according to Jim. Don't mention the fact that the conservative government there has been running the finances forever.  Quite a laugher.

[Bombers add 2 Nationals]

You can add the name Wonderful Monds (always reminded me of some kind of chocolate bar) to the Ottawa list. Where do people come up with these handles.

[More problems at IGF?]

What an embarrassment. I hope they sue this builders ass off and can get this straightened out once and for all. How many other problems and unpleasant surprises exist. They better go over everything with a fine tooth comb. I'm glad that this appears NOT to be a structural problem as that would have been the icing on the cake of incompetence. I don't know how this builder will ever get another construction contact, after the due diligence they didn't pay. I wouldn't hire this outfit to build an outhouse.

[Game 61 : Jets @ Maple Leafs]

Something is definitely lurking in the background, contributing to bad play. Losing to the maple laughs...ouch. If it's another trade...get it done, before we start to resemble the swan song the Bombers were singing last year. You're on the clock Chevy.

[Game 61 : Jets @ Maple Leafs]

Speaking of comments from Kane..says he's glad to get out of the 'fishbowl' in the Peg. Sure Evander...it's always great to go from a team with excellent playoff potential, to an also ran loser. Give me a break. Good move to have Hutch in goal against the leafs. I'm getting a little antcy about Pavs. performance lately. Go Jets.

[Bombers sign Goodrich]

Itchin to see what this kid can do. Bring him along slowly and give Willy another weapon. This could turn out to be a diamond find.

[Kevin Glenn's future]

So Kevin has completed the circuit...ending most likely where he started. I hope he doesn't go out like Joseph. That was not a happy ending for KJ ...KG deserves a better fate. He may have to take over for Durant depending on how DD's arm has rehabilitated. This should be an interesting watch.

He hasn't played for Montreal yet.

True....slight over sight ...BUT there's always next year to find a way on to Popps roster...especially if he does a Joseph in riderville. Let's hope.

[Kevin Glenn's future]

What *if* Willy continues his trend downwards from last year?   What do we do then?

The only downward trend for Willy, was the downward direction he took after being sacked because of a poor o line. I think we have started correcting that in a big way. See our moves in fa and other O Line acquisitions.(wink)

[Bombers new offensive line 2015]

I'm really excited to see what our new O Line can accomplish, once they get the wrinkles ironed out. They have big time potential working as a unit, and they have the right guy at the controls in Wiley. IF they jell quickly they'll present a formidable opponent for any team in this league. With the talent we possess now, I don't see why we wouldn't be rated in the top 3 O lines going forward. I know Willy won't be running for his life and giving him more time will result in a offence with more confidence and really will allow Willy to perform at his best, something we didn't see for a lot of the time last year. Bomber fans are going to see a much rejuvenated team and if we make the right pics in the draft, the future is looking very bright in Bomberland. Keep er going Walters.

[Bombers sign LB Hurl, WR Adams, OL Bryant & Dile, DL Brown]

There doesn't seem to be any great interest in Sears as of yet??? I expected someone to be all over bringing him in??Could he be back

[Bombers sign LB Hurl, WR Adams, OL Bryant & Dile, DL Brown]

Bryant and Dile...good job Walters. Willy will be feeling a whole lot better with these guys added. Keep em coming..I don't think we're dun yet.

[Free agency news]

Darvin Adams, don't remember much about this guys past. Can someone elaborate.

[Bombers sign LB Hurl, WR Adams, OL Bryant & Dile, DL Brown]

I won't go as far as to say great signing. But it's a good one.

..Depends on how you kook at it I guess...Canadian with all the potential in the world...I'll stick with great.

[Bombers sign LB Hurl, WR Adams, OL Bryant & Dile, DL Brown]

Great signing...welcome aboard Sam...first of many I hope.

[Next: Who is going to FA, who is not .... Priorities]

I'm thinking Brian Peters will be our new MLB, SirVincent Rogers will be our new LT, and we will also sign Sam Hurl, Spencer Watt, Anthony Woodson, and re-sign Johnny Sears.

Woodson????been there dun that,,,no thanx. I like the rest of the acquisitions though. Sounds like Sears is coming back. Walters says there in negotiations and should get it done.

[Bombers add DB and OL]

You'd think the NFL would be all over a man that size......must be extremely raw.

All over him in a BIG way. Wonder if he comes with his own food truck.

[Around the CFL Offseason Discussion]

Popp trying to find a quick fix with Skelton.  Could be a good signing.

 

You will never see Montreal sign a young QB like a Mitchell  in Calgary with the intention of grooming him into a starter over the course of 3 or more years.  That market will not allow it.  Older QBs (Smith, Ham, Crompton) and Qbs developed by other teams (Calvillo, Skelton) is the Montreal way for now and forever.

I thought we had groomed Brink. Guess that didn't work out too well for Popp. I think Buono is the qb. guru in this league, and Popp, since Calvillo, not so much. Skelton could turn out to be as big a bust for them as Ted White. Skelton hmmmmm wonder if he's any relation to Red.

[Do you think Jets will make any trades now?]

I have always thought that Kane never really wanted to be here and holding on to him as long as we have, has hurt the team. Trade him and his fat contract. He has underperformed for that kind of dough and a trade would be better for everyone. Having said that, it's not easy to make trades at the best of times. You usually get burnt when other teams know you have a malcontent on the club AND the Jets faithful will definitely want something in return. The other option is to let him languish in the doghouse and be paying a player for no production. Can't see that happening for very much longer. I hope Chevy can find a new home for him. As far as this fan is concerned, see ya Kane.

[[Blue Bomber Talk] Early thoughts on 2015 CFL Draft]

Heenan off the table????? Did we miss something cuz last I looked, with 10 days to go, he's still an fa. 'All practical intents' mean nothing unless you have a players signature on a contract. Holmes yes, but with regard to Heenan so far, that hasn't happened. The statement from O'Day that Heenan will go till Feb. 10th., doesn't sound like a sure thing he'll be in Regina. We shall soon find out.
