LOL. I know we are way off topic now, but I (a complete non-basketball fan) am looking forward to Sea Bears season. Took the kids to a game last year and we all had a blast.

They are well worth the price of admission. I’d say my daughter enjoyed the bombers games more but the seabears was her next favorite. She thought the jets were boring. (Not lots for kids to do ) 

seabears were very family friendly

“Winnipeg is facing a crisis at the offensive tackle position following the surprise retirement of backup Drew Richmond and the expected departure of all-star Jermarcus Hardrick in free agency to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Ivey is expected to be part of the open competition for that position.”

Closed circuit to John Hodge:

Tone it down. You’re honestly about as click bait as click bait gets. 
 

While you’re at it - stop stealing posts, thoughts, and ideas of people from this board and passing them off as your own. 

Jeeze are they that desperate for traffic?  Things must not be doing well if they have to be hyperbolic with a team having to fill one single spot ahead of free agency and training camp.    

I assume Hodge is going to pen an article with a photo of Pinball pointing a gun to his head because the Argos lost more then 1 single player and now need to *gulp* recruit or sign new guys.

Yeah basically on offence save for maybe Bailey, we are bringing back the hole crew other than Hardrick...Hardly the demise...As long as we have a mobile and adequate RT we will be just fine...Hardly a crisis...I'm more concerned on the defensive side and what uor front 7 will look like

Looks that way.  Have you seen the amount of ads on that page lately?  They also decided to do another article on Boomer Esiason a couple days ago (their 2nd this month) on his comments from 2021.  I would say they are very desperate right now for both content and clicks.

The ads are unbelievable. Beyond even the betting odds added to every story.

Do we want a Free Agency thread for open discussion of all FA things Bomber and non-Bomber? At least during the opening few days? 

Yeah, I'd posted about this show they're doing last week... I'm super pumped for it. Actually have most of tomorrow off, so I'm down for some FA excitement. Gonna be a time. And yes, while I abhor multiple needless threads, one for FA probably wouldn't hurt. Do we need a Bombers one and a non-Bombers one? Or just throw it all in the blender?

Prefer separate one's.....easier to follow....Hope there's a lot of action on our part

+1 for separate 

Briggs retired.

Congrats on a solid career!  Valuable player that played his whole career here. 
 

Enjoy the next step, Jesse! 

Always loved Briggs. Underrated player for sure, was far more of a contributor in key areas fans never really notice.

wonder if he's settling in Kelowna full time?  I would like to buy that man a beer.

great ST player and solid LB back-up.... thanks for everything, Jesse!! All the best in the next chapter!

I don’t expect much activity whatsoever, to be honest. Looking through what’s left out there, I bet we have some room to add but it’s not going to be anything notable.

I see very little out there that I’d be interested in. Jamal Davis, Shawn Oakman (who I sense is going back to the XOXOFL or whatever the hell they’re calling it these days) and I suppose maybe a guy like Christmas or a depth DI type like a Shaq Richardson would be the only players I have much excitement for beyond our own.
