    His petulant retaliatory behaviour on Twitter the last two days is actually sickening. There's no defending or justifying what he's done. You're done with football...? That's fine. But show some godda

    Looks like everyone is on the same side for once. I hated the Durant signing. I hate the retirement, the timing, the loss of $70K, and the Bombers finding out thru social media. What an unprofessional

 Nice timing.

So Ross and Streveler promoted to 2 and 3 respectively. Maybe Nelson will get another call. 

I don't see any free-agent vet QB other than Drew Tate - and this guy doesn't live and breathe football. 

 

On the positive side, we may have gain some cap space.

Did the Bombers have any clue about this? We just cut Nelson so it would be curious if they did. Need to bring somebody in

This guy couldn't of said something months ago?

Did anybody read his statement? No mention of the team he had a contract with .Just gushing about the Riders.

Trade for Manziel? 

 

(Kidding)

 

Seriously, Durant is an ***.

Who dumped him. And, who's fans wanted him out.

Not even a thanks to MTL for taking him on.

I always have this feeling that there will be a retirement or two prior to TC. I hope no more after this.

Well this is shitty news... was really looking forward to having a nice security blanket behind Nichols...

Would’ve been nice to have a veteran but I’m more upset that he was such a clown about this than I am that he’s not going to be on our roster.

That's how I feel too. No mention of any team other than the Riders. I'd say he's doing a moderately successful job of stroking Rider fans'...um...egos. Yeah, let's say egos. 

This is funny but I was just thinking the other day when I read the 'battles to watch in camp' string of posts that I wouldn't be surprised to see Durant get beat out and that he might not be the #2 (or, better put, deserve to be the #2).  Shitty timing on the whole thing and leaves a bit of a hole on the roster now.

Do the bombers bring someone else in or just let the two new guys take a lot of reps?

yeah,...his timing is pretty odd, and sure he knew a inkling of this months ago...so kind of a greasy move...but typical of anything associated with a Rider hahaha

Luckily Ross has some game experience..and truth be told..this allows Strveler to really showcase what he has...and may be the break both he..and the Bombers needed to develop a new young up and comer

Absolutely baffling. And pretty poor timing.

All the best in your retirement, DD... But seriously, thanks for nothing.

what a tremendous piece of ****. greasy move.

guess we have some cap space now, but what to do with it?

Just now, Mike said:

70k in bonuses since we signed him. Great.

And of course that money's down the crapper, eh?

And then this... If true, absolutely ******' greasy.
