Ryan Smith is a Dressler clone but quite a bit younger...Luv to see either guy here...We know both of these guys are going to be around....Carter not so much and he's going to cost a bundle..FA shaping up to be very interesting compared to most..

We have. His name is Matthias Goossen.
You are correct....And if he is the starter in 16...we have our man...Now depth is another matter.

Duron Carter was not resigned by Colts off their practice roster
He'll probably shop himself around before coming back to the CFL ...I'm glad we expressed interest and IF he can't get a deal from the Als. ...go for it.
-
Sounds like Jonesies kind of guy...Give everyone in the teams management the finger and clown your way on to the team...Wonder how long he'll last in riderville, especially when the fans there are talking about dumping Dressler and his salary to keep him around...Might be a heavy Price to pay for a guy the redblacks seen as expendable...They can keep him.
-
When you lose to a bottom feeder like the Sabres you know things have hit rock bottom...Especially in your own building AND they have a guy playing for them that we dumped...What does it say?...This team is not good enough and has a long way to go to be really competitive...I think Jets fans expected a little more on their return not this...IF they keep playing this type of hockey somethings got to give...Major trade...coach firing...gm firing?...I don't see the owners letting this thing slide much longer...How many times do you get hit in the head with a bucket of crap before someone opens their eyes...We shall see.
-
Bud Grants comments exactly reflect the man....and now fans can see why we won a lot of Cups when he coached here...Just a great example of how ,as a coach, you become successful.
-
We could use the guy, but obviously he'll jump at any opportunity to stay on NFL rosters...To him the CFL is most likely a weak afterthought, and until he exhausts ALL of the opportunities down south, he will remain an afterthought to this particular fan .
-
A great insurance signing that we definitely need, considering our plight over the last two years..We know Nichols can get it done if called upon and although not spectacular he is more than competent...One year deal works for me.
-
According to some on the t-cats forum, Laurent is done with his efforts to get an nfl gig...I think we'll have a shot....although it'll be slim...it won't be none.
-
Said it before this team started heading for the basement...There is something dreadfully wrong with this club behind the scenes and the gm better figure it out...Make a move...do something before this season is a write off...And I thought the Bombers were slow in the management dept. ...Signed royally peed off.

You prefer higher taxes, increased debt and poor service?
...What I prefer is good govt. and not a bunch of b.s. being fed to us about...'oh there won't be any raising of taxes'...all the while upping every user fee in the book that amounts to the same thing...As far as increased debt goes...every province in the country has added to their debt and that under differing governments...so that's a non starter.... As well provincial services are pretty comparable to every other province in the country...So who will do better in Man.????...Anyway this is a political discussion and doesn't belong here so I'll finish up by saying....nice to see the payment on the new digs being made and we better get a few playoff games to refill the kitty...and I mean a few playoff games.
-
Laurent and Capicciotti are names being heard....hmmm those names sound good to me, and if Walters can pick these guys up in fa...BIG thumbs up...I knew we must have had some cash to play with, and it's going to take a few bucks to get into the game on these guys..Kyle has his work cut out for him.
-
Adios to Picard...he was not getting it done as he is done...We will find a decent replacement, you know someone that can actually get the ball straight back into the quarterbacks hands, instead of falling at his feet. I believe father time has caught up with Picard and he should have submitted his retirement papers to the league...His play last year was abysmal and if someone else is willing to pick him up...good luck.

You hope the NDP win another majority? yikes.
I agree with Goalie. I just sort of wish the government wrote off the debt as the cost of doing business and moved on. Bombers would be a very, very wealthy franchise if that were the case.
I didn't say I hope the NDP win another majority...it's just that I don't think the options are that great...IF we do get another govt., I hope it's a minority so we can chuck the buggers if they start screwing up..I have a long memory and was never thrilled with cons....federally or provincially.
-
Another govt....led by that dud Pallister....I sure hope the polls are dead wrong and occasionally they are...At any rate I'm sure glad we made our payment and guys like Friesen can suck it up..

He has grossed a total of around $1.5M over the last 4 years (less taxes, agent fees, etc).
It depends if he wants to keep playing football for $100k - $200k Canadian ($70k - $150k American and dropping) or is ready to move on to the next chapter of his life, whatever that may be.
Very true that he has made a lot of money in the states. Could be that he has it invested and getting a good return...Could also be that he would like to still play the game that he luvs and would like to add to that investment anyway he can....A 150 grand American is nothing to sneeze at but pales in comparison to nfl money granted...It will come down to how much he wants to stay in the game and that is a factor only Bilikudi knows..I think we'll find out in the not too distant future. Sure would like to know if Kyle has sounded him out or has bothered ever.
-
Bilukidi is a professional football player...realistically if he's not playing in the NFL (looks that way) then where does he play...I suppose we could trade his rights for a player of equal value, if he has a problem coming here...but I don't sense that or have heard anything in that regard...I hope to see him at tc and lord knows we could sure use him. Hoping for the best.
-
So is Bellefool the oc or just on the staff...He certainly has experience ...didn't seem to help him here though...Why do I get the feeling that B.C. is headed in a southerly direction, like occupying the wests basement.
-
High expectations in Regina that's for sure...I don't see any miraculous turn around for them and if the fans think that, they'll be in for a rude awakening...Jones has to finish cleaning house before he even contemplates searching for better calibre players ..Sask. has some older players with fat contracts that need to be dealt with...There's going to be a lot of upheaval before they get back on track, and fighting to stay out of the basement in the west will be a challenge..I'm sure before the 16' season is too old, realization will set in and there'll be a few droopy faces in riderville.
-
That's what they call him in Cal....rebusrankin....After the season he had...... yeah it's Mr. Rogers
-
.....Yeah tearing it up after they sent him to an eye doctor...He had a vision problem and we didn't pick up on it...Edmonton did...He still gets the dropsies but not as often,,,Maybe we can turn up a Rogers but the way our scouting organization is working, that's a stretch..
-
...IF Tyron Brackenridge has got anything left in the tank...I'd say have a look...It would be worth it just to see him lay some head snapping hits on those yokels in the next province..I'd say he has a nasty outlook concerning Mr.Jones after he was dumped today...As for anyone else on that list...a big ho-hum..
-
...We need to sign Bilukudi and another credible O line guy from the fa's....oh and sign Andrew Harris on Feb. 9th....That's a good start..
-
...First of all...solid signing...next is if we keep Neufeld we better have a decent replacement in the wings in case he goes down....O line still needs a little work but I'm feeling a whole lot better now that Daniels will be in the fold for the foreseeable, Goosen as well.

missed word
We had the least amount of players to re-up and we should have some extra dough to play with...Even after the release of 19 players (more than we had to start with) riders still have a bunch of guys to re-sign and some hefty vet. contracts...I see some nice talent being dropped in riderville and I see a lot of gms. smelling blood in the water... That's just one club and it's going to get very interesting as the days dwindle down to fa.
