You dont stick around the NFL at 5 foot 5 as a running back unless you got talent. Hopefully he comes motivated. He can run under the legs of the guys in the trenches. Hit the F gap JJ..lmao

MOS can put them back. Might need to take up a collection. He's no Chris Walby but still... Walby's bar tabs were so high it just became cheaper to open his own bar..lol

JJ can cut on a dime too. Really nice lateral movement. He's my sleeper pick to make the team. Sorry for cursing you JJ..lol

Ill tell you that there is nothing a pro football player likes more than free beer from a fan. Absolutely, the level of football fan knowledge here is high. If I were a journalist covering the Bombers this would be must read stuff. That's why Noeller signs his PMs "Fatboi"...Who knew? But seriously we all know Jake Thomas is Booch.

👍 agreed Me too. I can also tell you for certainty that a lot of the inside info fed to fans is just for shits and giggles. Like Vega used to tell me, tell them what they wanna hear...that is how you get free beer. (He and a number of other Bombers were regulars at a bar i used to own). Fans would engage with them and ask them questions that weren't really questions but beliefs they wanted affirmed. The guys would go with it, order a round on the poor guy, then proceed to tell him some tall tale then laugh their asses off about it later. Vega told me straight up the only ppl who will ever know what really goes on inside our room is us.

There is a lot of speculation and opinion around here trying to present itself and fact and insider knowledge. Some of it is closer to the truth than others, but at the end not a single one of us knows much about what goes on behind closed doors at PAS. Every team, management group etc has different dynamics/power structures that none of us are privy too. It's why we have the endless back and forth of who is in charge MOS or KW. None of us with the exception of the scouts, Wadzilla and the coaching staff know the answer to that. Every team is different. Every management group is different, so those that may have past experience with a different group may assume the same model is in place with this one....and it could be vastly different. That's coming from someone with years of corporate and then private business ownership experience to glean from.

Yes, he failed to seize the opportunity. Probably why we brought in JJ.

Well that is certainly one take on it. I don't believe it is at all factual, so I will agree to disagree.

Riders sign Josh Woods LBer formerly of BC Lions. Big downgrade there.

Ted Goveia backed up the Brinks truck last year (mostly for our guys lol) and this is what happens the next year after a lot of times. Wynton is a vast improvement for them though. Gonna be tough sledding for BLM's muscle cream bill this year tho.

We already saw it last year. When BO went down we went with Peterson initially but the change was made to IMP RB shortly after.

McManis is a guy I would make room for. That being said, it's an SMS world so the numbers have to work. That being said, I would be very surprised if we don't hear of a McManis signing today. I find it hard to believe that the Argos would let him ride into FA early unless he had a number from another team that they just can't match. Would like to see us kick the tires on McEwen, and Shane Ray see if we could make either of them fit.

Lmao...I was here 15 years ago. Wasn't road kill then, won't be now. I did no backtracking on this issue whatsoever, you tried to put intent that was not there into my post as a way to defend a piece of turf no one cares about. I criticized an aspect of his coaching, you took that to mean I hated him and was calling him a bad coach. Hate? Maybe, as is the case with anyone on the Rider sidelines, but at no point did I ever state he was a poor coach just that he has a big flaw. Same way I can state that MOS has a big flaw but believe he is a good coach. So, I'm not really the one digging my heels in here, you are. Funny thing is history has shown me to be correct in that regard. Worse yet, we are fighting over the defence of Corey Mace's honor. Double ew.

You being you isn't exactly a treat for many forum members here. Not sure when it is that you decided your opinion allowed you to act like a jerk off to those that disagree with it under the guise of calling a spade a spade? Maybe you ran out of blue pills? Idk...but at least dont put words in others mouths to justify your failure to post civilly. At no point did anyone here call him a bad coach, but you decided to read that into some criticisms of his performance and be the self imposed defender of his honor. I know you are old but not everyone thinks in black and white like you do.

We would go Peterson if all things are equal. I am hoping JJ jumps off the page and makes us look at ratio elsewhere if BO went down.
