  1. Yeah, I get it. Am i happy? No, I make no bones about it. There's stuff that goes on (especially last year) that I didnt like. I've never been an "In The Canadian Mafia We Trust" kinda guy. Like a cvertain someone is. Expect more of it until I'm convinced the three in charge turn things around. BTW, I generally take as good as I get. And guess what? I hope I'm wrong. (I'm acvtually a little bit excited about our chances with the moves made. jake to me is meh... But the others, right on. Now, if we have a big free agency, we might be back to taking on the Riders & win the West. So, yeah, I'm kinda thinking we may have a chance. We'll see. BTW, as to my negativity... Do you ever see me criticizing Zach Collaros? Do I ever say he's washed up like I constantly read on this forum, ad nauseum??? Nope, I still believe in the guy despite the noise created by you & all the other posters that don't. I happen to think he has one more run left in him & I hope he shows up all the nay sayers on this board. Like Trevor Harris did.
  2. Hogan threw his players under the bus a couple of times. A coach needs to fall on his sword for his guys. Not blame them for losing.
  3. We won some games we had no business winning. There was more of that than the team losing games they should have won. The whole year was a downer.from watching Dobson & Lawler walk, the lack of free agent signings to the putt putt putt offense we had. I've never seen a more uninspired 10-8 team as there was last season.
  4. Sorry to hear but just why don't I care? Can't you stick to people we know? I've never heard of this guy before. This has become a name dropper thread.
  5. We'll never know then true story & there's no one in the media wanting to find out.
  6. When the fans turn away from the team there's always a danger that the owners may say they can get a better deal elsewhere.
  7. We tank & we're a good one foot & a quarter more through the door that leaves Winnipeg. We can't survive with crowds of 12 & 13000 just like the old Jets couldn't. Chipman can sell this team for over a billion dollars to some American outfit to move it to an American city with 4 times the population. Just watch what happens if we tank.
  8. Think he's a happy camper taking a demotion & pay cut?
  9. I think it's up. igniificantly. Plus we had a lot of wiggle room to sign Brady & Demski. I think most of that is gone now.
  10. This is like the Giants & Jets moving from downtown New York to the Meadowlands, NJ about 20 or so miles away. It's in the Kansas City metropolitan area. Kansas City Kansas & Kansas City , MO may be two separate identities in 2 separate States so it's probably not a big deal to Chiefs fans in that way. KC is all one big city. Back in the day, before Winnipeg & the surrounding cities amalgamated in 1971, it would bave been like the Bombers having Winnipeg Stadium in St. James but not actually in Winnipeg. It was no big deal. They weren't the St James Blue Bombers. The sad part is the NFL losing an iconic football stadium like Arrowhead.
  11. One thing the CFL doesn't do is bring in more qualified Canadian coaches from U Sports. They'd rather promote an inexperienced player than a coach who may have also been a former CFL player but found success in coaching at that level that is ready to make the jump.
  12. The only thing I'll say about Jake is he had one move. Bull rush. He held his head up with his left hand in his 3 point stance. .He just charged ahead & was pushed back. If he coaches technique like that... He would have been better served to coach at the U Sport level & learn his craft. Maybe come back in 4 or 5 years. Coaching is a lot different than playing. Hogan should have been shown the door but I guess they felt bad for him & felt they owed him a spot.
  13. That was the worst. Years of fans wishing they'd show up. Look up Mulamba & Bilukudi in any CFL & NFL stats book. See if you can even find them. They led both leagues in Most Invisible & I Don't Give A **** categories.
  14. Yeah, it's helping now but we all wanted him to do it last off season as we had a Grey Cup hosting year.
  15. For 4 years we had daily & monthly updates on Mulamba & Bikudi(?) ... "They're COMING!!!!" They'd all scream on Our Bombers (please shut up, not again!!!) when Mulamba & the other dude both got kicked off yet another NFL PR. Yeah, well they both stayed in the NFL practicing for years & never played in either league.
  16. The Bombers 10-8 record last year was pure luck. They should have missed the playoffs had the ball bounced the other way. More like 7-11 or 8-10. The Bomber braintrust can say we had a winning record & made the playoffs. But we all watched the team & they were fortunate to winas many games as they did. The team will either bounce back or fall off a cliff, I believe. A lot depends on Walters getting off his duff & actually doing the work needed this off season. So far, the early signs seem promising.
  17. Let's hope he learned a lesson from his arrogance of last off season. That we didn't need any impact free agents. The Argo HC said Kelly is the starter so I doubt he'd leave. With a year off, he should be good to go. BTW, some are saying that Patrick Mahomes may have to miss the 2026 season with his torn ACL.
  18. Jets 1.0 vs Jets 2.0.
  19. I didn't realize that kid I mentioned was Doherty. I agree. He will be killed one day along with his bodyguard.
  20. Walters needs to sign Sergio. This should be a slam dunk so I hope it happens. We hope he comes back. i care about the Bombers. I don't care if players leave to go to the NFL. Great for them but sucks for us. I reslly wish if we have a player under contract who signs an NFL deal that we be compensated by the team that signs him. This happens in soccer, I believe.
  21. I don't think that was the case with Jackson. There's no reason even to think that.
  22. Some are more qualified than others. JJ would have been better suited.
  23. Sankey is an elite player who plays linebacker with other lesser mortals at the same position in the CFL.
  24. This isn how all players should be. It's a privelige not a right to play in the NHL. They should be happy to play for any team. But players are different today than they were thirty or fourty years ago. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1170522528046071
  25. Don't understand why Osh didn't hold the OC spot open & let Hogan run things until JJ showed up. All of that made no sense at all. We have a veteran team so Jackson being two weeks late shouldn't have been a big deal. But hey, it's Osh & half the stuff he says you can't take really seriously, it seems. Biggest mistake in the 12 years he's been here was giving Hogan the OC position & then not giving it to Jackson when he got here.
