When buying a car, do you walk into a dealership, and yell "I've got tons of money, who wants to take it?" or do you go in and say "I might buy a car if the price is right, but really, I'm just looking "? That's sort of what Walters is doing and has done over and over.

Would you say that there's a crisis on the Oline?

Can I suggest that the title for this discussion be changed to include Gerry's passing?

2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
WBBFanWest replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Looks like the Elks signed another guy for the defensive line. Good luck Bede! -
Love the idea of a Marquee Player idea. No way that's going to cause any issues on a team at all. And it would be yet another bone the league could throw the Argos because they're they only team that could maintain a high end salary like that indefinitely. It would financially dry up a team like the Bombers over the course of a few seasons. I like the cap. Same rule, same problem for everyone.

What, you don't think that having Fred Penner at an occasional game isn't a big deal? -

Why is it that with some posters, when I read their diatribes it comes through in Abe Simpson's voice? -

If he's going to do that sort of work, I think that's the point, isn't it? -
Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros

A question for the many who are much more knowledgeable than me. In regards to Bighill and Schoen, if they had not dressed and we had won, would they still have gotten their names on the cup and a ring? I'm assuming they would have, but if not, I can understand why O'Shea would have been so determined to make sure that they dressed and played. -
After watching him in the playoffs in general and the last two Grey Cups specifically, I'm not convinced that he's the guy. Not a lot of point in having someone who is lights out during the regular season, but then can't keep that going into the playoffs. Also, yes there's a risk in starting Brown, but there's a potential long term risk if we let him walk with Collaros only having maybe a couple of good regular seasons left.

I find it a bit problematic that Bighill is actually having to explain something like this and say that the error wasn't his, because as has been said over and over, the issue wasn't really that play. Mistakes happen all the time, it's part of the game. The issue was that he had no business being out there. I don't blame him for wanting to play, again, I'd expect nothing less from a guy like him. The same goes for Schoen. So for me, the issue is O'Shea. It appears he sometimes chooses with his heart instead of his head. Neither of those guys should have dressed, much less start and it's O'Shea's job to recognise that reality, say no, and give the team the best chance to win. I think it's the same issue with the SEAL. For some reason, O'Shea seems to think that this is somehow a big deal. Being a veteran myself, military service is fine but frankly, I give not one whit for this guy's American military service. Now, if we had a member of JTF2 wanting to play, that might be another matter entirely, assuming he had the skills to do so. In either case, this may be why the guys love O'Shea so much, but if it costs us Grey Cups, maybe it's ok if they love him a little bit less. I really hope that those above him have a serious heart to heart with him during the off season. He's a great coach, but he's got this obvious blind spot that needs to be corrected.

metaphor noun met·a·phor an expression, often found in literature, that describes a person or object by referring to something that is considered to have similar characteristics to that person or object: "The mind is an ocean" and "the city is a jungle" are both metaphors. __________________________________________________________ On a different note, I have no idea if they are planning on re-signing Walters, but I would hope after Sunday that Miller realizes that O'Shea really does need someone to protect him from himself. I don't know if Walters would be the best guy for that job, but it's obviously needed.

Maybe just offer that person 50% off a year's membership?

I have to say, I've loved this loss just as much as I've ever enjoyed any Saskatchewan drubbing. And that Fajardo was the qb for Montreal makes it so much sweeter. I do though understand the devastation that the several Argo fans must be feeling today. Fear not though, for when the "crowds" of people disappear again next year, we'll be ready to send the CFL your welfare cheque. Argos suck - always
