  1. My only concern is which players to get on the back... I don't like getting historical players on current jerseys... but I'm always concerned I'll get a current player who ends up playing one season...
  2. you're right, that is horrible too... a perfect example of trying too hard to be modern and/or relevant...
  3. Not sure how I feel about the Lions jerseys (not that I really care)... I would say they are okay... but the tramp stamp, seriously?!?
  4. ****... this is gonna cost me a lot of money!
  5. So the plan is to cut both FBs and both NI LSers?...
  6. That's a good question... I don't know if he would have been ranked higher than Singleton or Corney... I think he may have been a 2nd or 3rd round pick...
  7. You nailed it... I believe it was Farhan Lalji that reported he was getting no signing bonus and that's why he chose not to sign...
  8. I would have liked Dillon Guy or Llevi Noel in the 4th round... but otherwise this seems like a great draft for the Bombers... The 2 teams that I thought made some confusing moves were Edm and Sask b/c of their futures picks... Edm b/c their top 2 picks have NFL contracts so who knows when they see them... and Sask b/c they are not really in a position to be making futures... I would think they need as many Cdn players in camp now as possible... I was cheering for Onyemata to succeed before this.... now I want him to be the best Canadian player ever drafted in the NFL...
  9. I thought most analysts considered him a first rounder.... sounds like a steal to me... I heard he could start at safety this year...
  10. From everything I've heard (Bob MacKenzie, etc) there is about a .00001% chance TO takes anyone other than Matthews... Even if Laine scores 35 goals in the tourney, TO still goes with Matthews...
  11. Hey guys, just catching up on this thread... so how about that Andrew Shaw thing.... Just kidding (I can't decide which emotion is appropriate)... I can't imagine why Tampa would pay Stamkos 10M/year when you look at how well the team plays without him... best case scenario for them is they can get a conditional pick for his rights to the leafs before the draft...
  12. Fans always know more than coaches/management... obviously
  13. Prediction: Kyle Walters will be pleasantly surprised the guy they wanted was there at 9 because he was the top rated guy at "position x" they had on their board...
  14. I think the one question all rider fans are on the edge of their seat waiting for the answer to... will they keep the tramp stamp?
  15. I agree with you that Hefney was the best player on that defense... the punt return stats are what put Jovon over the top that year...
  16. I can't stand the Nuge... but that is a great song...
  17. I don't mind Singleton at 9... but I really hope we don't see 6 O-line go in the first 8 picks... no team is more O-line desperate than us...
  18. Losing the picks is what hurts them much more than losing the players...
  19. Not sure who this guy is... but other than the fear of Bouka's availability, I wouldn't mind if this is how the Bombers first 3 picks played out... http://lastwordonsports.com/2016/05/03/cfl-mock-draft-version-3/
  20. Just reading the Ed Tait article... “Playing with Jovon (Johnson), Alex Suber, Clint Kent, Joe Lobedahn, Doug Brown, Odell Willis, Jason Vega, Phillip Hunt before he went back to the NFL, Ian Logan, Johnny Sears, Deon Beasley… I’ll never forget the guys we had on that defence. " That's an impressive group of guys we had on the D that year...
  21. I think I have the same feeling as most here... I almost want to feel bad, but then I remember it's the riders.... But I'm still confused... everything I've heard from Rider fans is that Saskatchewan is the mecca of all things football and it's every football player's (Canadian and American) dream to have the honour to pull that puke green jersey over their watermelon helmet and call themselves a member of the greatest organization in the history of sports...
  22. Actually a pretty good idea... if it was possible...
  23. Onyamata probably wasn't high on anyone's draft board anyways... EDIT: for some reason this empty Jpan quote text box won't go away...
  24. nothing more entertaining than reading fan-suggested, unrealistic, dream-scenario trade suggestions...
