Funny guy. We'll see.

We played the Lions at PAS. Idon;t remember the score but we got smoked. I drove through the night to get to that game. I came by myself & sat with a friemd of mine as he had two season tickets. He left & went home. I went back to my hotel & checked out at 6am for the 14 hr drive back to Calgary. All I thought about driving back was just how bad the Bomber organization was. What a happy ride back that was.

Walters made reference about roster turnover.

He said two years ago he wasn't tough enough in training camp. Not enough urgency. Then he says last season, he should have taken more of an interest in the day to day coaching of the team. Like how can a head coach with 12 years experience even say these things???? He just sounds totally disengaged. And Miller gave him a 3 year deal as President. Do you want more whine with your cheese? Dolegala had played enough with the Riders. Collaros nearly had his finger sliced off & you're yapping about Dolegala not playing??? At least he could perform. Zach couldn't.

That's their whole bloody team. Yeah, good luck O'Day keeping the team together after winning the GC. Everyone will want a raise. Some substantially. They'll be one & done. Spending like Hervey does really did them well last season. But, is it worse than not spending at all? Then losing our top free agents & signing virtually no one like we did?

There was mention on the previous post of hoping dental care would be universal one day. Not when tens of billions are going out of the country to global causes like the war in Ukraine. I can't wait to see the reaction when our kids & grandkids are sent to fight in Ukraine after a national draft because that's the only way we'll have enough troops to have an actual armed forces.

Are you serious? What you say makes no sense. With anyone there is always a chance. Who knows what might have happened had Dolegala played. Putting Zach back in was ridicu;ously stupid. He was unable to throw. Dolegala gave us a better chance to win over Collaros who couldn't grip the ball. How many pick sixes did Zach throw after he went back in?

Yup, Osh said that in his presser after the playoff loss to Montreal as per Paul Friesen's story here. Someone quoted the same story it was discussed here. Osh said he didn't believe a rebuild is needed. He hoped that wouldn't happen. He just thought a tweaking was needed. Read the article. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/fix-the-offence-bombers-collaros-oliveira-got-osheas-attention

Yet fans here think Osh is the one who can right the ship.... He's the reason the good ship Bombers are listing.

Well, the best teams have the best players usually. That's not unusual. Collaros needs help. His comments after thge season just confiormed it. He had Brady but numbnuts Hogan never used him properly. Now, Osh will waste two months deciding if a change is needed at OC & in the end will probably just bring him back anyway.

I think Walters pays by a grid system. On that grid, he has divided the money for the salary cap by position. Some positions pay more & others less. He won't vary from that grid. I don't know if other teams do it but if he is doing that, it isn't working.

The federal Liberals have sent $22 billion to the Ukraine to line Zelensky's pockets yet no money for universal pharmacare or dental?

Sure,

Osh doesn't want a rebuild. He said that publicly. He wants to bring most players back & "tweak" the roster with minor changes. So, that means same old, same old.

This season the offense was on the entire organization. Walters signed that high priced receiver from Edmonton & Osh barely played him. Damn, at one point we had Chris Streveler playing wideout on a bum knee. We signed Dalton Schoen & he never should have seen the fie;d this season. He was cooked by O'Shea playing him on a torn ACL. Zach was then handec an OC who was the worst in the CFL & now it looks like he'll be back again. We have the worst starting CEnter in the CFL & the OL suffers because of it. I can't blame Collaros. I thin k it's more 65/35 Bombers seem to have become a somewhat dysfunctional organization. If you heard the comments from both Osh & Walters. More of the same coming in 2026.

I think Zach needs better protection, a strong running game & a complete revamp of the receiving corps as well as a new OC that he believes in. Give him that & he could still be very effective. I don't think his skills have eroded that far. He has to play differently as he isn't as nimble as before which means he has to get rid of the ball fast in the pocket. He's still able to move the pocket around if he has to. Some of his deep shots don't get there anymore. I still would take him over the oft injured & super chilled Dru Brown in Ottawa who doesn't seem to give a **** about anything. What a wet noodle to play for as he inspires no one. When I watch Cody Fajardo in Edmonton, he doesn't instill a lot of confidence that he can get the job done when the chips are down. He got lucky on one series in the Grey Cup in 2023. As well as Nick Arbuckle who still displays a Jekyll & Hyde mentality. You just don't know from game to game what yer gonna git from him. So, Zach is middle of the pack with Hogan & the dysfunctional offense he had last season around him.

Our soldiers will be fighting in the Ukraine soon. In this country fishing season lasts 12 months a years. Catch & release.

What then... does Osh see in Kola & Thomas??? I think anyone who thinks Walters & Osh have suddenly found God will be very disappointed. Expect the same old, same old.

That actually could be why he hasn't signed.

C;mon, the media is kind to Miller, Osh & Walters. You make it sound like the media was being mean to Osh. The press corps constantly throw softball questions at them with very few hard & pointed ones to answer. In the 60's, 70's & 80's the media was much harder on Lunsford, Bud Riley, Robson, Jauch & Murphy. Lunsford would get angry. His Oklahoma temper intimidated some of the media & they'd back off. Bud Riley was a very introverted & quiet man who never trusted the local media so his relationship with the Bomber press corps was tenuos at best. Jauch would just give a reporter who asked him a question he didn't like the Evil Eye & the look of death. Murphy would just laugh at the questions he didn't like or scowl at them. Sometimes both at the same time. A head coach like O'shea with 12 years experience should have no problem handling any media question. Especially from the people covering the team now. kinda hamstrung with that dumb rookie salary cap.

Dobson was the one free agent we never should have let walk in free agency. All part of the Kyle Walters draft & develop for other teams strategy. And then, we have O'Shea telling the media that he has to do a re-set & be more involved as a Head Coach in the day to day operations of the team. This is a head coach with 12 years experience. How does that even happen? These are the guys that are supposed to figure out how to fix things?

Typical Osh presser. Talks but says nothing.

Some guys just can't get their **** together. When Tyler played Juco in California he saw it first hand. Players with god given talent but they just don't want to study & have lazy work habits. They end up like the guy who killed John Beam at Laney College in Oakland. Doing some low paying **** job instead of making millions in the NFL. Then they become bitter when they're spit out of college football & blame someone else for their problems.

Stan can play Center or Guard & be a monster doing it.

If we sign McGloster out of Montreal as a free agent as our starting LT, my opinion of Walters may change dramatically.
