We will bring in 2018 with a simple, quiet scotch - with the hope that it will toast numerous Bomber victories this coming year.

Agreed - he can probably find work elsewhere. The impact his injury had on the team cannot be overstated.

True - he has very little leverage at this point. 'Do you want to play football for not?'

Water damage is never minor. Moisture assessment, mold assessment, dehumidifiers, et. al. It’s actually worse than smoke damage which at least doesn’t create mold and can mostly be seen and assessed on the surface. For the record, I have been involved in a flood restoration project - I hope Mosaic has the insurance to cover this one. As for Winnipeg critics - you are not wrong about that.

Hilarious. I would assume you have never dealt with a restoration company & have no idea of the cost.

The timeless words of Charles Dickens are always worth reflecting upon: "will you be the one to decide which men shall live and which men shall die? It may be, that in the sight of heaven, you are more worthless and less fit to live than millions like this poor man’s child."

I’m sure you can get help for that...

Or that the OL needs to Bond

This is strictly based on my own observations, but to me it looks like the soft zone he runs gives the players more space and time to read and react to potential turnover situations. However, on the flip side, I also gives offensive players more room to maneuver when they have the ball, and to get open.

I assume you are referring to the size of the roster being a limiting factor? However, the Bombers have several import positions where the talent needs to be better. Maybe it's just a matter of experience, but what we saw from some positions this year was inadequate.

The top tier is not what I'm referring to.

He's still not wrong. The Bombers do need better international talent at some positions. I have no quarrel with how the Argos won the GC. It's how the CFL works. Make the playoffs and make sure your team is trending up after Labour Day.

If you will have the goodness - to let me begin by saying - it’s the off season...

Feeling compelled to say that it’s the off - season? Post it here - whenever you feel it’s applicable...

You could argue that about any position. What if you had 5 American OL who are the calibre Travis Bond & Stanley Bryant?

There is a drop, but I'm sure if it's the same. I particularly remember being at the game vs. Ottawa when it rained. We had section 102 almost to ourselves. However, we had a great time with a couple of older fellows who were quite knowledgeable.

It makes sense go with the more likely scenario - we both no know which one that is

Ok, a Canadian team in the Stanley Cup finals would be an issue - once in 10 to 15 seasons, same with the Blue Jays in the World Series. However, what the about annual drop in attendance due to late fall / early winter weather conditions? Not the Grey Cup but the semis and the final.

Scheisse

Also, the Lions’ OL was average at best.

Start person X at MLB, change to someone else the following season. The next season, start person X again & ask the safety et. al. to cover some of his territory. That’s not looking back far enough.

As someone who works with teenagers - I can tell you that even the most devoted fans would rather be doing something else by the time the cup final rolls around.

The ‘05 defense was outstanding at the start of the year. Teams didn’t seem to have a clue what they were doing. But then Coach Rust left...

We all know what happens in Winnipeg when cold weather comes. Even season ticket holders don’t show up - much less the walk up crowd...

Well, there is also the possibility of making regressive moves - we definitely saw some of that this year.
