  1. SO who sits tomorrow then? Carter and Howard? Cuz that's a 46 man roster there no? 44 only dress.
  2. I didn't watch that game cuz it wasn't on tv, or was it? Wasn't it at Varisty Stadium, so really, not on TSN so i guess only 5000 or so watched it plus some media people. Were you one? The Other question mark is... Wasn't it just a pre-season game?
  3. I've seen it before when i actually used to use Facebook. You can tell whose sit it is by reading the comments on the Bombers Facebook page really. I think a few people from the WFP and WPG SUN comments section.
  4. Dinwiddie has his hands full in Montreal trying to teach Troy Smith how to throw a ball.
  5. Rumour is Florida was wanting Tanev and the 6th for the 1st from VAN so going on that.... Kane and the 9th would do it I'll Bet Buff would too. Maybe something like Buff +9 for 1st. I'd do it if it was Buff + 9 for 1st. You'd be crazy not too. Jets aren't winning this year and to get either Ekblad, Reinhart Bennett or Draisatl would help us longer term. I'm not sure who we'd pick, I'd lean towards Reinhart just cuz this season, he could be our 3rd line centre. I could also see bennett cuz a line in the future of Bennett Scheif Wheeler would probably be outstanding. Ekblad makes no sense at all. We have trouba and Bogo Unless it's bogo and the 9th for the 1st (wouldn't shock me)
  6. Sports Entertainment really. And i'm not sure how having reporters in the dressing room is considered "entertainment". To who? What do we get? a 40 second clip on the sports show in winnipeg about the bombers? So Entertaining. We will still get interviews with players, just b4 the game. TSN BOMBERS don't exist. The Post-Game show does but i'm sure those guys will still get their interviews. As a fan, all we can do is listen to it, why does it really matter anyway. Just sayin' here man but.. not sure that i find sweaty half naked men being asked stupid question by our media entertaining. I think with our media, i'd rather call it embarrassing.
  7. Let's not write some of these guys off b4 they get a chance Bruce Johnson,Paris Cotton,Mo Leggett... these guys could be very good, saying our scouting is an epic failure because why? couldn't find a 5th receiver and couldn't find a defensive end? that's going a little far. We got us some talent and i'm sure they will turn out to be pretty good. Heck Marve too. It's not like we didn't find anybody.. look around the league, how many rookies are starting on other teams? Probably not many.
  8. Was said previously in a way but, It's guys like friesen who ruin it for the rest of the media. I don't think they need to be in the locker room, i don't think they need to interview assistant coaches, what would a guy like friesen, who really doesn't even understand what's going on on the field most of the time ask these guys? We wouldn't learn anything from it. Just a waste of time really. Some media are good, irving (is he really considered media though), tait, bauming,penton are all good guys, but its guys like friesen and wicek who piss and moan like they are entitled and they ruin it for the irvings and the good ones around. However, with that being said, perhaps the best thing to do would be to allow certain media members access and to not allow guys like friesen or wicek access. I'm honestly not sure what the point of having multiple "media" there, i mean really does the sun need both penton and friesen in there? does the free press need both wicek and tait? bauming reps TSn radio, bob reps cjob radio. Why do the papers need more than one guy there? I'd ban friesen and take away his credentials, just to piss the guy off a bit more.
  9. I guess it doesn't hurt to workout bryant, i'm sure the scouts are working out guys all the time, We will see what happens when he works out for us, maybe nothing comes of it. Maybe Romby is done, but maybe he has a bit left in the Tank, if he did though, not sure why the argos would release him. He's gotta be a bit banged up still and if he is, i doubt we sign him.
  10. Etch always rotates guys in and out, in and out in and out, almost too much at times from my recollection. So i expect Wild to play as much, if not more than Kuale does.
  11. from all reports i've read, dressler has been impressing the chiefs very much. Haven't heard much but also haven't really looked for much about Matthews.
  12. why would true north want hartnell, that contract is terrible for him. Why wouldn't they touch vanek? guys a proven goal scorer and can play the RW. wheeler vanek frolik down the right looks pretty good. I doubt they would pay him what he wants but wouldn't surprise me if they spoke to him.
  13. Well the other thing is, that rumbling penton was referring to could have just been the rumblings in his head or the thunder that was happening outside about an hour ago.
  14. Like i said, i'd probably rather have romby than kelly but... at the same time, romby is pretty old, hasn't played too well the last couple seasons. Surely we could do better than kelly and surely we could do better than Romby. Why not take a look at a few of the younger guys, receiver shouldn't be a hard position to find guys at. I'd rather take my chances on a younger guy over 34 year old bryant. I guess in the big picture, i'm not sure i see a point in bringing in a 34 year old when surely theres a 24 year old out there who could be better and actually might still be here when we actually become competitive and good and challenge for the grey cup. I don't see Romby being a long term solution, actually i know he isn't. Why not give woods a shot or jaymar johnson or really take your pick of one or 2 of the 1000000000000000's of receivers down in the states. Hell, i'd rather we go sign etienne and or sisco and start kohlert watson feoli-guidino i think with sisco/etienne or carter backing them up. I mean if we are gonna go with a 34 year old, why not just help the ratio out a bit and start another canadian receiver instead. Moore,Demark,Watson,Kohlert,JFG. Better than a 34 year old.
  15. I'll take a ride on the CJ Gable train also.
  16. Most Passing Yards - Burris Most TD passes - Burris Most INTs - Burris Most Rushing Yards - Gable Most Rushing TDs - Cornish That's all i got for now.
  17. http://www.ottawasun.com/2014/06/22/ottawa-redblacks-to-bring-in-four-kickers-to-fill-vacant-spots Redblacks? news. Regarding kickers.
  18. Philly trades Scott Harnell to CBJ for RJ Umberger.. guess it's a wash, Umberger younger but not very good, pretty much the same salary cap hit but Hartnell has 2 or 3 more years left on his deal compared to Umberger. Bit of a head scratcher though. Markov re-ups in montreal for 3 years. 5.75 aav. That's a big cap hit for a 38 year old. Also Late coach Pat Burns has been elected into the Hockey Hall of Fame class of 2014 alongside Dominik Hasek, Peter Forsberg, Mike Modano and Rob Blake and legendary NHL referee Bill McCreary. Gonna say it, It's about damn time Burns got in.
  19. there is no KHL risk with Yakupov, he came to play in the OHL really young don't forget, people just like to pile on the kid cause they got a stick up their ass when he had the audacity to celebrate scoring goals. The reason Edmonton would want Kane would be to add size to their top 6, but I dunno that you get Yakupov for Kane. Sophmore slump doesn't drop the value or the consensus #1 draft choice in his draft year by that much. Gotta remember that as a rookie he did lead the Oilers in goal scoring. i liked yakupovs celebreation, i like him, i just don't see him being something we are looking for. You trade Kane and our left wing depth becomes andrew ladd, that's why i don't see it happening. Kane won't be traded anyways and if he is, regardless what you say, they will get more than just yakupov for him. Helps the oilers sure but how does it help the Jets exactly? Trading your top LW for another RW, how does that help? as for Kane rumours, every damn off season since the Jets came back, the talking heads have always said kane is rumoured to be moved, every damn off season now, enough already... either **** or get off the pot really. I won't believe it until he's traded. Just a bunch of bored hockey writers out there trying to get likes and page clicks in my opinion. The yak rumour was started by an Edmonton writer, it just won't happen.
  20. i believe that game he got hurt on the opening kick off return actually. If its the same game i'm thinking of.
  21. Humm. Is that recent? My friend tried to get tix in our section (213) and he said the whole section was sold out. But this shows tickets available. Maybe it's just some singles in our section idk. I don't think it is very recent at all. They took that seat tracker down i'm pretty sure. The image is right from ticketmaster's website, not the seat tracker site. yeah but how do you tell even based on a colour chart? not many tickets to many tickets? what's many tickets? 500? 1000? 200? Who really knows right. Guess we will all have to wait until thursday to find out.
  22. Well, edmonton would have to add, there is a risk with yakupov, he's russian, he could go to the KHL, there is always that risk. Kane has 4 years left on his deal, yak has 1 and could easily bolt to russia. I don't see that happening, Edmonton really has no need for kane and we don't really have a need for yakupov. Kane should be able to fetch you more than yakupov. I like yak but... when you break it down, that deal doesn't help either team really. The more logical trade with edmonton would be buff or toby, i just don't see how kane helps edmonton and i don't see how yakupov helps the Jets. The jets have very little LW depth, you trade kane and your depth becomes even worse. Kane,Ladd then what? trade kane and then it becomes ladd and a bunch of scrubs really. Don't see Kane to Edmonton at all.
