I havent started a gameday thread this season yet.

But, if the Bombers lose today I'll ban myself from starting anymore GDT threads for this year.

This... We were never getting him back, which sucks, but he's the only guy we really miss. I guess you could say Yoshi, if just for vibes, but RT has been more than adequately replaced. The C hasn't been right since Couture.

Maybe Vaccaro comes home in a couple seasons if Ottawa doesn't completely wreck him - might be a long term center option for us.

Vaccaro definitely would like to come home...I think he was disappointed that he wasn't a Bomber BUT we realistically didn't have a shot at him in the draft....His family sure turned out for him when Ottawa came to town.....He'll be a Bomber sooner or later

That might depend on how much firewater is consumed.

My ISP ran into a major equipment failure and after 6 days, they still could not tell me when they would be back online. I still have reasons to be accessible online and so I told them to end my service. All of my accumulated emails were lost and I had to sign up with Bell/MTS. I contacted a couple of the mods here and asked that my old handle be updated so that I could keep my old handle, but received no response and the only way for me to be here was to establish a new identity.

Wierd, I've gone through ISP changes, VPN changes, Country and City changes, multiple machines, Windows, Linux, Android and always kept my sign on.

Maybe had his login email tied to his ISP account. Like a @shaw.ca email.

Well, sorry for your travails. Technology truly does suck at times.

Thanks for the concern and sympathy. Remember when we were told that technology would make our lives simpler? This is just a bump in the road.

Could we trade Elsbury for him straight-up?

It doesn't. Apps never work, can't remember passwords, don't recognize passwords, etc, etc, etc.

I'd leave him at guard and develop a centre.

Have we shown the ability to develop one?

Hey in 3 more years, Eli will be ready.

Goossen and Couture are now painful reminders that the Bombers absolutely can develop a nat centre… but they can’t/won’t keep one, won’t sign one in FA and now Huge-Legs Elsbury is taking up and imp spot on game day .

What a bizarro world situation when our coach won’t even use the naturalized Canadian rule.
