  1. Main Camp Day 3 (Reports and Discussion)

    Kelly is a good player, Mike just has a hate on for the guy for no real reason.

    Any reports from Riderville on how Jade Etienne is doing.

    I don't hate him, I just don't think he's what you hope for out of an import receiver. A new scouting staff should be able to produce better than that.

    And from the reports in which we can take with a grain of salt it appears Kelly is excelling over most of the new guys.

    Should we be pleased that Kelly is stepping up or do we look at this as a red flag at our recruiting ability?

     

     

    Could be any number of things. Maybe he got better. Maybe he's not actually doing as well as fans think. It'll take us game action to know for sure.

  5. New Bombers coach O'Shea doing everything possible to control the message

    Have to say, I'm a little disappointed in Penton.

    @PentonKirk @mike_wpg i know that bama head coach nick saban does that same thing at bama... Cant argue with that guy

    @seanoleksewycz We're talking about professional sports organizations

     

    MIKE @mike_wpg

    @PentonKirk @seanoleksewycz NCAA coaches are professionals and that's what you're talking about - coaches. No difference.

     

    Kirk Penton @PentonKirk

    @mike_wpg No, I'm talking about pro sports versus college sports. They're big boys who can handle themselves

     

    MIKE @mike_wpg

    @PentonKirk @seanoleksewycz so you're implying NCAA coaches aren't "big league" compared to CFL? and they can't handle themselves?

  8. New Bombers coach O'Shea doing everything possible to control the message

    Funny that the only negative stories about Miller and O'Shea were both written by Friesen. The Bombers under Miller, Walters and O'Shea have bent over backwards for the media but that hasn't had any effect on how Friesen writes about the team.

    Exactly. The team has become far more friendly and Friesen is still shitting on them for adopting a policy that is used by almost half the league.

    I'd have a lot more respect for him if he said he didn't like the policy as opposed to acting as if it's an incredible mistake.

    Here we go again. Friesen complains about something the Bombers do and the boys on forums go nuts. I get the popcorn out and see if anyone comes up with anything new. It's almost like the folks around here don't know that Friesen is trying to create buzz and he doesn't care if it's negative or positive.

    Personally, I think O'Shea trying to control the message and the media is a mistake, just like it was when 'He who must not be named' did it. Picking a fight with the folks who write the articles is a no win situation and it will result in negative press, which the Bombers really don't need. I'll chalk it up to a Rookie HC mistake or not understanding how the press, especially in Winnipeg works. At least it will be grist for the forums so things won't get boring around here.

    Why is it that you ALWAYS side with the media? If a coach does something the media doesn't like, he's picking a fight? Why couldn't it just once be that the media is behaving inappropriately?

    Two things about the Twitter feed to update you all on lately ..

     

    - If you haven't yet, be sure to check out the feed and RT our daily tweet for an entry into our gift card draw

     

    - Also just want to apologize to everyone here for what some may call the "shameless plugging" we've been doing. I try to balance it with information, but the more traffic we get, the better it is for all of us because we can keep giving free stuff away. So if you're bothered by the whole "follow us/RT us" schtick, my apologies. Hopefully it won't happen too often.

  22. Ted Laurent expected to sign with Ticats

    This really should result in a pretty decent Canadian DT being cast aside by Hamilton.

    Unless they plan on keeping Atkinson, Bulcke, Hazime AND Laurent.

    Do you see any of those guys as upgrades over Thomas/Lucas?

     

     

    Bulcke and Hazime definitely are, Atkinson is impossible to tell and might not be a fit in our D but he rates well as a prospect.
