I just meant because he is cocky also and abrasive with the media. He hasn't delivered the cup either but I guess that comes down to the fans. If they don't mind not winning I guess no reason for any pitchforks. I forgot that I wasn't talking about our fans.

You are correct. Speaking of cocky, is Kent still a savior in Hamilton? At the cap and a ton of free agents, pitch forks likely will be coming out soon. Austin will be fine. I think most of the FA's that he wants to sign will probably return. I think he's a coach that players love to play with. While I find him cocky too. I think players look at it differently and admire his demeanor and fierce attitude. Agreed. Wouldn't you say the same about Jones? He has won 4 cups, the players obviously believe in him.

The Eskimos are in for a nightmare off season. All or most of Jones assistants will move to Regina & you can bet a lot of FA from the Eskimos will follow. Wow, I think it's going to get ugly between the 2 teams. Its always been ugly between the two teams, Hugh Campbell, Lancaster. This is nothing new. But it may go to the next level now.

Jones and the media here are not going to get along I don't think. Much like Chamblin, we'll put up with it as long as they win. If and when the struggling starts Jones will get run out of town without doubt. Its easy to hate a guy like Jones because he is so cocky. Going to be a wild ride through this winter and next year. I'm looking forward to it.

As usual, you are here with your troll pot shots at the Riders. Do you ever comment about anything else? Its actually flattering that you are a Tigercat fan and all you ever post about is the Riders. Austin will leave the Cats hanging in a second if something better comes up. I was mad when Austin left but we have a cup to show for the year he was here. That's sports, its about winning. I don't care if Jones leaves in a year or two, we are a better team today than we were yesterday, and that's what matters and that's what's bugging you isn't it? You wouldn't be happy if Jones left after a year or so. Especially if the Riders were winning. Probably not, BUT we know what we are getting into. When you hire a guy like Austin or Jones, you know dam well they aren't going to be there long. Hard ass guys like Jones have a short shelf life. Personally I was kind of hoping we would hire Murphy, but I give full credit to Reynolds for going out and trying to get the best man he could to make our team better. As far as mocking the Esk fans, some are doing it and yes its not in very good taste. I won't defend that and also don't plan on participating in it either. But just read posts on this forum or any other and you'll clearly see fans of every team do it.

Even though we missed the playoff's, we still got to stick a fork in the Eskimoes.

Cortez Retires.

One nice thing about a smaller stadium and a big season ticket count is most of the idiot bandwagon people can't get a ticket for the game. Sadly you likely see more idiots at the road games than you would see if you came to regina to watch the game.

Ok now your just being mean. LOL. No Jim Daley on staff?

Do the Esks hate the Riders as much as we do? Yes, yes they do. Doesn't everyone hate the Riders? Thanks for the clarification. I just wasn't sure if it was a prairie rivalry or extended further. Basically the cities within driving distance of Regina, mostly because they see more fans in their stadiums for games

Burris has his wonder woman bra on today.

I think Cortez is a idiot, hope Jones learned nothing from him to be honest.

Not sure what you're getting at exactly. But I would take Bowman over Moore no questions asked. Not Owens though. Yyyyyyyyikes...no sir. Moore has his troubles, but Captain Dropsies Bowman....don't want him back near this team. Agreed. Bowman is brutal, he can't catch. The guy gets the ball thrown to him continuously, he's bound to accidently catch the odd one.

I think Khari is a good move. Durant played very well when Jones was here as a qb coach. Willy is a gun slinger much like Jones. Its a good fit IMO.

You are confused. Rider Green never comes off. The fans stick with this team no matter what. Rumours of our demise are wishful thinking and nothing more. Even if no one goes to the game, there is nearly 30k tickets sold. Don't worry we'll be back You guys need a 2 decade run like we've had just to put you in your place. The had a near century long run like we're experiencing right now. The rider green came off easier in those days... The bandwagon fans come and go with every team ( hey I noticed you guys haven't sold the grey cup out yet??). But the diehards are there through thick and thin. That's what I referring to. Lots of great cfl fans in Winnipeg who have stood by the Bombers through some tough years lately.

Westerman has been good. He is trending in the direction of being dirty. I like players that play on the edge and even over it from time to time. He is walking a fine line IMHO right now

Serious question.. Is Picard a Bomber next year??

I'd consider bringing him into camp next year. Especially now that we don't have to give up anything to get him

Agreed. He is what he is, a bandaid. Bombers didn't have to give much to get him and he will win a few games. Your future is dependant on Willy being healthy and on the field. No one in their right mind would build a team around Nichols, or Glenn for that matter.

four grey cup appearances in 8 years two wins Did I miss a win?

That would be a expensive backfield

It's almost the end of the season and the end of his contract. I'm glad we got anything for him. Many teams would have just waited until the off season to sign him. Sounds good except he wasn't going to be a free agent. They had verbally agreed to an extension prior to the trade. Ya about 5 minutes before the deal. No way the Riders wanted him back here. Montreal likely wanted some certainty
