Hey there, time traveller!

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have begun to shape and form their 2015 roster.
The club added veteran long snapper Chad Rempel and import receiver Mike Willie while cutting five players, all imports, on Saturday: defensive backs Ryan Steed and Gabe Lynn, defensive tackle Kheeston Randall, receiver David Gettis and offensive lineman David Mims.
Rempel (6-3, 225, Saskatchewan) has appeared in 125 career CFL games, the first nine of which came with the Bombers in his rookie season of 2005. Rempel moved on to play seven seasons for Toronto, and one for Hamilton (2008), before spending the 2013 season with the Chicago Bears. He returned to the CFL for the last half of the 2014 season with Saskatchewan. The 2015 season will be Rempel’s 11th in the CFL.
Willie (6-2, 220, Arizona State) played two years at Arizona State, and caught 72 passes for 897 yards and nine touchdowns. He went undrafted in 2012 and was signed as a free agent by San Diego, earning a practice roster spot and had a stint with Baltimore last season.
The Bombers are not on the field today and open main training camp Sunday morning at 8:30 at the field beside the Winnipeg Soccer Complex.
