  1. We dodged the Higgins bullet.
  2. I know this was meant as a joke, but surely you know that the issue isn't the "free" part. First, the service provided was essentially a shuttle service (Park and Ride), with direct routes to the stadium that aren't provided by the city's regular bus routes. Eliminating this service means people have to take a regular city bus, which from some locations is damn near impossible, and from others is extremely impractical. A system where the fans are asked to pony up the difference between what the Bombers are willing to pay and what the city is asking would be great, if it weren't for the fact that the city said a "pay" shuttle is not possible (for reasons that escape me now).
  3. Didn't see this anywhere. Thought it was simultaneously lame and cool. Will probably buy some if they are even half as good as Buck's chips were. https://www.coopconnection.ca/wps/portal/fclretail/FCLInternet/News/CoopNews/!ut/p/a0/04_Sj9CPykssy0xPLMnMz0vMAfGjzOKNQgJDjdxMTQwsPM3dDDzdA_2MPAJ8jQxcDPULsh0VAVcp4JA!/?WCM_GLOBAL_CONTEXT=/wps/wcm/connect/content+library/fcl+internet/news/retcon-pub+-+2014+game+day+approved+winnipeg
  4. Jaxon: Good idea to leave out the single point. Once we told him that not only do you get a point for missing a field goal, but that single point is in fact called a 'rouge', I suspect he will start to think we are punking him and bail on this board entirely.
  5. Is it too early to be whining about our DC who hasn't even had a chance to do ANYTHING yet with this new group of players? No.
  6. His comments scare the crap out of me.
  7. Are you comparing a bunch of no-name import rookies with 55 year old Henry Burris taking up a gazillion dollars along with their other older QB? I'm talking about a few people complaining after they signed Anton McKenzie. Apparently Ottawa has no budget at all yet we have an open wallet. What?
  8. cmon give the guy a chance. let see what he got during TC. I'm not talking about his OC talents...I'm talking about his crappy recruits he got them to bring in. Boltus was one...there was another one from Hamilton. A WR...I can't remember his name. You must mean Aaron Kelly, who was nothing short of amazing for us down the stretch.
  9. Serious question: based on what?
  10. Willy AND Glenn would be ideal, but I actually think Max Hall would be a reasonably reliable backup.
  11. I searched for "Willy Videos", and what I witnessed cannot be unseen. Someone will pay for this transgression...
  12. The problem with signing Glenn to help out Willy is that it relies on us getting Willy in the first place. Which, given how things have gone so far, seems like a long shot.
  13. Whatever your thoughts on Henry Burris, I don't see how the team continually losing out on coveted free agents can possibly be seen as a positive.
  14. Hopefully he more durable than Buck Pierce. Otherwise, with our o-line we will being seeing a lot of limp Willy.
  15. Trades with BC amount to: TO WPG: Banks, Foster TO BC: Pierce, Poblah I would take that any day of the week, and twice on Sundays.
  16. This is not the NHL. Right now we don't have anyone better. When/if we do, we can cut them. Why are people freaking out over this?
  17. The filling out of the management staff has me really optimistic that they will finally do the same for the coaching staff.
  18. This is complete and total speculation that it's Walters/O'Shea vs. Miller/Khari....ridiculous that we're treating it as fact. Well I'm glad you said it. Bugs me to no end that people are willing to treat this crap as fact. Isn't it funny how when it became apparent that Walters was the GM the rumours switched from Khari for HC to O'Shea for HC? Sounds to me like a lot of speculation prior to a GM being in place and once a GM was in place his choice is the front runner, is that not how it's supposed to be? But nooooooooo you all gotta be typical Bomber fans and run around like ******* talking about a conspiracy. So are you going to also say the search for GM was thorough and transparent process or that maybe, just maybe it was a one-horse race since Miller got the chair? and that has what to do with this silly idea that miller and walters are butting heads on a head coach? Miller is the CEO he can hire whoever he wants as a GM The point is, maybe Miller hired -- and likely, only interviewed -- the guy he knew he could tell what to do. I'm not buying that there's this big push back from Walters either. Frankly, I think Walters will do whatever the hell Wade tells him to do. OK, so Miller hired a puppet, or he and Walters are butting heads. It can't be both.
  19. Terry Dean. And Steve...something...here the same time Dean was here....dammit. Edit: Pelluer! Steve Pelluer.
  20. It was awful. Worst idea ever.
  21. I'm curious to hear more about this once you translate it back into English. Stupid phone. I meant to say, Burke throws Ford under the bus after the game for the timecount, without mentioning that the coaches could have called a timeout if they were paying any attention at all. A coaches only job on gameday is to manage the game, and Burke is just terrible at it. Actually he couldn't call a time-out. There was a rule change for this season that a team can only call one time-out in the last 3 minutes of the 4th quarter. Burke had called a time-out with about 2 minutes left. It would have been a delay of game penalty if he had tried to call another time-out although that would have been better than a loss of down. We still had both our time outs.
