yes, but you said "bring him back and apologize" which makes it sound like he was cut... he is on the team, just not on the game day roster... yet

that relationship sure soured fast

Very weird... why would BC pick him up, then trade him for a 4th round pick... we should've traded the pick for him, lol

Bombers Rookie Camp/Training Camp/Pre-Season Thread
bearpants replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree... not expecting the # to be retired... but I thought they would take it out of rotation for a little while You can't really retire most numbers because you need so many in football... but I think there's probably a time frame there to honour some of the greats... not sure what that is, maybe 5 years?... I don't remember if #1 was issued only two seasons after Charlie left... but if it was, I would disagree with that too.... I remember being a disappointed when #97 was issued only a few years after DB retired...#85 still hasn't been issued since Milt retired. -
Bombers Rookie Camp/Training Camp/Pre-Season Thread

I would say I’m a little disappointed with our upgrades (or lack thereof) at LB and DL… I suppose if C Thomas, Haba, and Bennett end up being legit players, that helps the DL a lot… but going into the season with a LB core of old Bighill, always injured Wilson, uninspiring Clements, and most unknown Cole is underwhelming… hopefully Clements and/or Cole make some major steps this year as both are still relatively young (both 26) So in your scenario, the day 1 starting DL is the Jeff’s, Thomas and Schmeckel?…Why do you keep saying that Schmeckel is the replacement for Sayles?… when it’s very clearly Walker… and if for some reason you’re assuming we are replacing him with a Canadian, then it would be Lawson… I can’t see Schmeckel making the active roster, never mind being a starter -

Again... other than Bighill, who is an "injured" vet just sitting out for fun... and Tait did report this morning that Bighill is hurt... so as far as I can tell there's zero players taking the camp off just because -

So all the people saying that Leggs will make the team because of his passport... that's actually irrellevant because Castillo taking up the DI spot is the only thing that really matters... and that still happens whether the punter is Leggs or one of the globals -

Let's say you're correct and the teams sticks with Castillo and a global to punt... how does that effect the roster composition?... Castillo has to be DI'd and the punter just counts as one of our two globals? No effect on how many Canadians dress? -
Pre-season Game 1 : Bombers vs. L(k)’s GDT

I think I recall hearing he has university eligibility and it’s likely that was the plan for him all along. -

I know these are just TC numbers... but I really hope the club isn't issuing #33 just yet -

For some reason my GIF search isn't working... I wanted to add a "Quadmire giggity" gif in here... so everyone just use your imagination I agree that Wilson and Jeffcoat are definitely concerns due to their injury history... but I have little concern about Oliveira and Biggie... those guys are going to be ready to go. -
2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)
bearpants replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Except that drive and passport are two completely different and unrelated things… @Mr. Perfect is correct that Kongbo was never spectacular here… his biggest contribution was providing competent reps so Willie and Jeffcoat could stay fresh… the question is not about what Kongbo was but what can he become given the opportunity… I think we’d all love to have him back but it’s not necessarily earth shattering -

this is true.. but what people are complaining about is not the info O'Shea is refusing to share... what people want to hear about is what is happening at camp/practice... a reporter should be able to obtain that info by simply attending camp and paying attention. -

I know this is not going to happen... but how hilarious would it be for the riders if Fajardo came out and actually did light it up for the Als? 😅 -

Fair enough and thanks for the input... I don't really know much about MOS Jr... just trying to think of ways he might try to make his mark -

he would be an extreme long shot to make the team as a wr... but what about the possibility of being a special teamer?... no one is unseating Janarion just yet but wasn't MOS Jr a dynamic returner in the BC jr league? -

The CFL generated headline in this tweet is misleading... he Ferguson doesn't actually say Edm has the best wr group... but does say they are good... which is a fair comment. -

2023 CFL Draft Discussion
bearpants replied to Super Duper Negatron's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
doesn't seem like anyone to get too excited about from this draft... guys like Bennett, Murphy, and Kornelson sound like Bomber-type players... hopefully we'll get some solid teamers or maybe we get lucky and someone emerges as a legit starter... Just keep an eye on how Black and Ringland develop in Ham and BC... so when they are ready to hit the open market and ready to come home...
