CFL getting behind the sticks on these fines. They're now announcing them when the next week games are already underway.

It used to be announced by Wednesday.

When in Gino signing somewhere?  I know Singer replacing Wilson reduced that worry, but we are still starting like 9 Nats, can't we find a way to get Gino on the field instead of Neild/Cobb/Clercius?  Take Womack's ratio spot.  The cost for 4 games can't be an issue, and we need every sure handed reciever we can get, and with Dru at QB, there's more "chemistry" there than with any Bomber receiver.

C'mon Kyle, make it happen.

It appears that bus has left the station. If we were going to do that chances are it would have been before now. O.Wilson might be back?

Yep, it'll be interesting to see if they make room for Singer or send him back to the PR. Obvious choice is to move him into Womack's backup spot behind Clercius were he could take occasional reps.

The top 3 receivers have earned their keep this season no question, if they want to make room for 3 import starters they'll have to re-jig the lineup.

They could easily keep 3 import receivers. The extra import has been a revolving door and none had made an impression or even gotten significant reps.

However, Griffin might also return this week so room would have to be made for him as well.

If Singer is not starting we riot.

I wonder if we even tried to make that trade. Even for the rest of the season, I think he'd have been a good addition.

Would only cost a mid/late round draft pick. 

Howsare and a 7th round pick, for a 5th round pick.

Wow, that's really cheap for an impact player. We should have totally made that deal if ceresna has a blown knee.

Yeah we may have tried or we may have tried harder for McManis as an example. OTOH I think we may just sat on our hands. Reluctant is our MO.

But we still have about 24 hours to make a deal. So we'll see if they take some sort of plunge.

I never expect the MOS Bombers to do anything but promote from within. A trade would shock me.

We are never going to trade for Howsare when we have Dixon. The guys here have earned their spots. That is what MOS would say if you asked him.

Ya MOS is NEVER going to acquire somebody new mid season and replace someone who's been here all year 'working hard'. Its just who he is. Nobody exists outside our clubhouse

The Bombers don't lack talent at LB or along the D-line, with 4 games left they'd just mess up the established chemistry and piss teammates off, neither of those guys is going to make that much of a difference.  Crazy Tony had a better season than legendary McManis and Howsare's best years are in the rearview mirror.
