What a performance Trouba put on last night. The kid is a stud. Taylor Hall was a lucky guy last night he wasn't pasted.

Threads change directions, ebb & flow all the time.

The thought that Burke stays is so offensive as a supporter. Please don't let that happen.

Nice Grumpy... That would be a premo parking spot.

And Burke two won cups in Montreal as DC. But I hear you on Jones. That guy is a total son of a be-yatch, much like Cal Murphy used to be. I don't think you'll ever hear Chris Jones say he doesn't understand offense. Not a chance. I don't like Jones because of the way he left Calgary here... But having said that, maybe we need a head coach who is a bit of an SOB. A guy who'd blitz the **** out of a team. A guy who'd win by 50 points if he could. A guy with an attitude which is what Jones has. His personality will rub off on his players to the point where they fear no one. Of course, it'll implode if he doesn't win. Risk vs reward?

Maybe Chris Jones is Bombers HC next season. He wants to be in charge & has been overlooked in the past. The guy is ready. He has had more success than Dave & has been a coordinator longer. Won Grey Cups in Calgary & Toronto as a DC. In Calgary he also assisted in player personnel. He seems like a decisive guy. Certainly more than Burke ever will be. But that's the risk... Hire another guy with no CFL HC experience. It could be a great or terrible decision. Meanwhile in Toronto at the CFL offices there's a guy named Higgins...

Just like the Tate/Glenn thing.... A trade for Muamba ain't happening before the season ends.

Bullshit. Don't tell me we can't afford him. We've got just as much money as anyone, even if a lot of it's "hush hush" under-the-table stuff. If we've gotta overpay to get the right guy, then they'll do it. I'm certain Miller knows the story, and the mucky-mucks have learned their lesson. They'll target the right guy and make sure he's taken care of. You hope they'd learn... I'm still in the Hire Higgins camp as I think he'd be perfect for the job in every way. Experienced in both coaching & management. Knows what it takes to win as he has a tremendous amount of CFL experience. Has an enormous amount of contacts in the NCAA & NFL, is universally respected, hires great assistants & lets them coach. He's also media friendly. He'd be the perfect guy except he would want to run the entire football operations himself so he'd have to be hired as GM as well as head coach. Would Miller let him? Would Walters pout expecting he'd get the gig??? Not convinced the Bombers would be prepared to do this even after this nightmare season. Will the Bombers would hire the right guy or go back to hiring people they know or on the cheap. Fork in the road for this team...

Glad they made the NCAA rule change. Drafting kids with another year left to play didn't make a lot of sense. Now these players will be drafted their final year & hopefully can come in ready to contribute.

I dunno.I guess we'll see as time goes on, won't we? I make it to a couple of games a year because I live in Calgary. So, what happens in Winnipeg really has no affect on me. I just know here in Calgary that the C Trains run right to McMahon Stadium & carry thousands of fans on Game Day. There's also places to park around the stadium so fans have a choice to take the train or car. As far as Corus Apps go, I have a Blackberry with another 3 months to go on my agreement. With a new phone I can start downloading apps like that. I have the Corus app on my BB (old 7.1 OS) and use it all the time... I'll certainly look into that Noeller as I've just about given up trying to download apps on my Blackberry.

Reilley better change the way he plays or his brains will be like scrambled eggs. The hit was vicious but he put himself in that position so it has to be on him to take care of himself.

The guy has done pretty well. You can't take that away from Reilly. We get a pretty good indication of how things may have gone with him as our starting qb. The Esks OL has been as bad or worse than ours. They haven't any better running attack than we have but where they have an edge is at receiver with Stamps & Coehoorn who are better than any of the receivers we have. Coaching is certainly no better. Would we have won any more games? Doubtful but the future at the qb position would be a lot brighter with Reilly here than not. I'm not dredging up the "Why didn't Mack sign Reilley" debate. That ship has sailed. Don't want to discuss it. Just that the guy has done pretty well on a bad football team. And I could see similar numbers passing wise here. I don't like his style of play as he is going to have a short career if he doesn't smarten up but I think he's done as well as a lot of football fans suspected he would.

Just Winnipeg's media at it's finest! If Wiecek actually believes that then he's an idiot. We've had next to nothing to cheer about this season & damned if I'm going to let Wiecek take even that away. We pounded Durant & the Riders. Full marks for that..

Why would a Rider losing streak make what we did less impressive at the Banjo Bowl? What a stupid comment.

Tate's not going anywhere. Not until after the draft. Even then he may stay.

The UoM has plans to build housing for students and staff there at some point in time. They won't allow any parking there. So typical. Land is a golf course for decades & now sits vacant. They build a 33,000 seat stadium & the U of M says no to more parking. Maybe I'm wrong but the academic entitlement of the jackasses that run the university pisses me off. Building it there was a mistake. Thanks Vic Toews.

You do realize any new QB needs AT LEAST 2-3 weeks MINIMUM to learn the system to even step on the field right? QB's on teams have seen and can study playbooks prior to training camp, anybody new will not have that luxury, and you want to throw said person into the line up as a starter... Unreal. Again, this fan base... You do realize any new QB needs AT LEAST 2-3 weeks MINIMUM to learn the system to even step on the field right?

Again, this fan base... Is frustrated, fed up & tired of the excuses. We demand more. We should get more. As usual we get nothing. I get the frustration, I am too. But this isn't Madden. You don't sign a quarterback with no familiarity with your systems at this stage of the season and expect him to finish the year as your passer. It just doesn't work that way. Agreed. With 5 games left bringing in a new qb now would be a waste of time.

I've seen some bad performancees before but Boltus was right up there.

Willy has the least experience which is why I don't want him. Been there. Done that. Collaros obviously is the the guy we want. Or maybe Burris but a 39 year old qb for a season, maybe 2??? Is he worth it? Of all the qbs with his mobility he may be the only guy who could survive our OL.

Probably but he's not the best qb we can sign... Trading for him would be insane.

So, is it the U of M who won't build a parking lot on the old golf course land??? That would go a long way to alleviate problems. I don't think that's a solution. The problem is getting people on and off the campus, adding more cars wouldn't help without adding another route on and off campus. Most people don't want to park on campus unless they have mobility issues. They aren't selling the parking they have available now. Just a question but do you think that fans will be happy taking buses for the next 50-60 years to Bomber games? I think the novelty will wear off fast. If Winnipeg had rapid transit like Calgary's C Train or the mono rail train in Vancouver right to the stadium it might be different. I just have my doubts. People like driving to the games & parking their cars. I've been to 2 games this season & used the bus. I enjoy listening to the post game show in my car after the game. By the time I get back to the arena parking lot where my car is in St Vital the post game show is over. If I went to 10 games a year by bus I may not like it.

This team isn't even loveable when they lose. What I was surprised at was Bob irving just brushed off Burke pulling Hall & playing Boltus the entire second half like it was no big deal. Even Doug Brown barely mentioned it. Yet the way Boltus played was one of the worst performances I've ever seen. in any league And on CJOB it barely rated a mention. No way they were going to ask the head coach tough questions. All Bob ever does in his post game questioning is talk in hushed tones, a sorrowful voice & going "Poor Tim Burke".

So, is it the U of M who won't build a parking lot on the old golf course land??? That would go a long way to alleviate problems.
