  1. hopefully swiston pencer Etienne muamba and other young cdns will stick around and prosper
  2. Lieble just likes to whine about everything. the worst part of westwood is how he says 1290, 1290.ca randomly. I get that he has to say it a certain amount of times or whatever but he says it mid sentence and in response to questions and jusy randomly
  3. Edmonton is the biggest mess. everything about that organization is in over it's head. mtl and ham at least have proven guys like popp and austin. as for us. who knows. maybe 2 years from now we'll be hearing about how the new guy is full of piss and vinegar and has a mandate to win.
  4. who had fire CEO and GM?
  5. My Favorite part of the deal is that what was very recently an unsuccessfull ST coordinator is now responsible for signing our FA NI talent and deciding how we protect what little talent we have in the pending expansion draft.
  6. I don't really think they are mutually exclusive. The new CEO just did a bad job at delivering a canned speech because he is nervous? Sorry that I'm not filled with condfidence in this decsion.
  7. I don't think think its business operations that needs help as much as football operations. Were about to have what was a a lame ST coach 6 months ago as our new interim GM. It can get worse.
  8. I'm 29 and I haven't had a speeding ticket every year but every 3 years or so since 16. I think my driver safety rating is essentially neutral. I make 70 to 80 k right now and expect a job could go one of two way, similar money as right now or a bit of a paycut but good experience that would lead to more cash in a couple years
  9. So I just completed a program that might give me some job opportunities outside of Winnipeg. Likely Calgary, Vancouver or Toronto. I know we've got lots of people on this form from various cities so any insight from residents would be great Likely I'd be working a > 40 hour a week job in the down town area and renting an apartment close to work. Feel free to add anything you might think is relevant or shoot down anything that is a misconception about these places Calgary Pro's: Probably cheapest to live in. Would be able to keep my car. shortest flight home least amount of taxes close to banff shortest move I don't mind the up and down weather less taxes Cons: I don't really like country music or anything cowboy related probably the worst of the cities when it comes to international airports (still better than WPG) for flying internationally I don't have a bad driving record but I've managed to get a speeding ticket every 3 years or so just often enough to keep merits away, I'm not sure how much different private insurance is than MPI for an abstract like that. Vancouver Pro's I've been to Vancouver a lot and I like the city but don't really know what would set it apart from Calgary or Toronto. I'm sure next to Toronto it would be the best airport to travel out of for vacation. Con's Warm in winter is nice but if it really is dreary I wouldn't like that. I'd probably travel during the summer so its not like I could get away much for winter. I think a parking sport in downtown Vancouver would be crazy expensive. I'm not a hippie Toronto Pros's would probably have the best jobs, maybe not good enough to offset the extra taxes and living expenses compared to Calgary at least for a while Would be great to travel out of for vacations I'm not super "Toronto" but I am more "Toronto" than I am hippie or cowboy Con's I doubt I could afford to bring my car I don't know how bad smog actually is as I've never been there in summer In my spare time I like to play in bands. I know in WPG lots of bars have to have live music to keep there liquor license and that keeps live music going, I'm not sure if any of theses cities have the same deal?
  10. it's a little hard to totally evaluate crowton with a crap ol and a qb throwing it behind above and in the feet of players.
  11. If he's about to subject himself to the bombers playing in BC, I'd hope very.
  12. I don't mind the late start. Will give me something else to think about tonight as I'm getting stressed about some exam results tomorrow morning.
  13. outside of scrimmages of course
  14. I have a 2009 edition jovon Johnson jersey that got benched in a more timely manner than the player
  15. I thought something was up with their center this year?
  16. You gotta spend money to make money. They went big with the stadium and the on field product is not up to snuff. they are going to lose more money with a shitty team in an expensive stadium than they will paying out the nose for a marquee GM. in the off season they need to go to Popp and Buano and huffnagle and say here is a cheque, write a numner down. You can do whatever you want and hire whoever you want. you will be known as the person who finally turned around a listless franchise. and then they need to sell it to the fans and beg them to come back. because the stands are going to be pretty bare for the rest of '13
  17. Popp has done enough good to earn a mulligan though. He's going to take over as HC, probably have Berry do a lot of OC work and likely make the playoffs Take another crack at finding the next Trestman next year
  18. buy**** as in would they give say 5 games for Goltz to perform before the axe chops a little higher.
  19. Desia Dunn looked bad in pre season too. Can't really tell.
  20. how long does a move like this by a HC/GM?
  21. Inside jokes are classless
