    Other than Mitchell who has huge upside...the other pieces really are huge question marks in a way...Is White what he was?...didnt look like it last yr....hopefully anoyher seson between injury will get him back...Sterns....couldm't crack Sask roster...that aint sayng much for him...questionable hands and guys of his skill set....easy to find.....I'd have preferred we looked at the lines a bit...and spent money there....maybe we will still but majority of anything that would have upgraded what we currently have/had has agreed elsewhere

    I have high hopes for Person..Adams and Woods tho....now hopefully thy get lions share of reps

    Yeah this is basically what I'm saying, in regards to the receivers... If Mitchell and White pan out... we will not miss Lawler

    I just keep looking at it from the perspective that we’ve got fresh energy. We’ve got new guys coming in, guys bringing new ideas, fresh energy, fresh juice… sometimes that stuff’s needed, man. You go to five straight Cups, you lose three… that’s hard and you need some fresh juice in there to bring a fresh perspective because it can’t just be the same thing over and over again.”

    Somebody gets it and see's things thru the right perspective lens....hopefully parts of our coaching staff does too

    This is a Streveler quote?

    They've already signed more FA players than the last 3 off seasons combined

    I don't understand the people complaining that we have done nothing this off-season... you don't replace a guy like Lawler... but we've added some nice pieces at receiver and hopefully one or two hit... we're better at LB now than last year... DBs should still be strong... losing the passport at corner sucks but Ford's production is replaceable... Wallace may be as good or better than Dobson... I think I like to see some depth at DL and OL added... ideally a starter but not sure how many great options are out there

    Sorry if this has already been said, but I saw on twitter that the Elks paid Robbie Smith $230k & Ceresna got $225k. 

    Smith at 230 is excessive... but I would've had zero issue with that Ceresna deal... outside of Zach and Brady, we don't really have any one who has a "crazy" contract right now (arguably Kramdi).... and Brady is living up to his...

    My assumption on the delayed OC announcement is that it has something to do with Jarious Jackson and what his role/compensation would be... It wouldn't surprise me if him and Hogan are being paid at a similar level... I'm a little surprised Jackson wasn't given an additional title like pass game coordinator, or even Asst HC... the only really confusing part is Ed Tait saying prior that the move would not be surprising...

    And angry old men yelling into the void...trading conspiracy theories...

    Funny story... I was in a waiting room a few weeks ago and these two older fellows (in their 60s probably) were talking about the Bombers... one was asking if they should try to get Vernon Adams (this was already AFTER he was traded to and sign an extension with Cgy) and the other guy was explaining that they need to make sure they have cap room first, which they won't know until FA opens... then he started talking about contracts with option windows... I kinda just chuckled to myself... I don't think he got one thing right in the entire 5-10 min convo those two dudes had... I would've been there for a long time if I wanted to correct them... anyways, that the kind of info you'll find on Facebook chats

    I don't know why we keep having this discussion... 2019 Matt Nichols was outstanding until he got blindside pancaked after the whistle. We were 6-2 under him and he gets hurt in the 7th win in Week 10 which put us at 7-2. He was having an incredible season before he got hurt. 

     

     

    Absolutely nothing illegal about that hit... Nichols was holding the ball... just an unfortunate result. 

    (approx 6:15 if this doesn't cue up properly)

    Doesn't make me mad (as Mike said)... but just really makes shakes my head.... I do not understand for the life of me what they see in him at this point in his career.... the team was ready to move from him when he was like 28... then he had a few good rotational seasons in him... and he's been just a waste of space for the past 2-3 seasons... I don't get it.... can't convince me a rotation of Lawson and Samson wouldn't be a significant improvement?
