Pushing 30 doesn't mean anything. A lot of WR's in the CFL hit their prime around 30. Doubt the Riders will be disappointed starting Taj Smith, Geroy, Getzlaf, and Bagg, with some new import taking the last job; and Etienne, Sisco, and McHenry filling out the backup slots. How does it not mean anything? If Bagg goes down with another injury your left with one decent NI. How many years left does Getzlaf and Simon have left? They don't have much for Canadian depth. Etienne could be good but no one knows and sisco is terrible. All I am trying to say is Taman would be an idiot to at least not try and get an offer to Kohlert. I still see him signing in Winnipeg but likely for more then that wanted to offer him.

I know Hargreaves is slow which is why I feel Sask might make an offer to Kohlert.

Bagg is a Band-Aid and Getzlaf is pushing 30. They have McHenery, Etienne, Sisco, Thompson, Hargreaves and Anthony. Not really an impressive group of receivers. I just wouldn't be surprised if Sask at least puts an offer on the table and maybe makes the Bombers pay a little more.

I have a feeling Sask might scoop him up. He's from there and they need Canadian receivers. I sure hope we can re-sign him though!!

Sorry no link. Just posted on Twitter. Thanks for the many years of service Chris!! All the best.

With the whirlwind regarding the QB position I forgot who it is we still need when it comes to coaching.... What positions are the hiring? QB coach....

Isn't this how you take the heat of Willy?? Or am i doing it wrong??

I think my Willy just extended by extending Drew Willy....

For anyone who forgot............

The only joy I will get from this is when we sack Burris 10 times a game this season.

Can we just write 2014 off and not play? Ottawa can just take our spot and next year we can come back and pick all the players we want rather then having to bid for them?

+1 on the parking / concessions rants. Granted, the team's performance down the stretch had a great deal to do with managing some of the congestion but honestly .. the organization responded to the problems well .. anyone who thought we'd come out of the gate, problem free was very sorely mistaken .. and I'd suggest their expectations were out of wack. I'm on about the 30ish yard line now (Section 105), Row 11 .. and the seats are pretty damn good .. If I could .. I'd move closer to the 55 .. maybe a few rows up from where I am now .. but I honestly don't have many complaints about my seats. I agree with the performance but even by Banjo Bowl and a packed house I found the trip in out and concessions were fine. Sure they can still do a few things to improve but overall they responded well. Funny thing about the cracking though. I was at the Iceplex on Friday and noticed the floors in the stands as well as upper viewing areas were cracked all over the place yet because it's Jets related no one in the media or even fans seem to think this is a problem. Why is that?

Speaking of IGF. I find it funny how so many people over reacted on things like parking, busses, cracking, place falling apart etc. After the pre season game hearing everyone on the way back saying they were never going to another game because it was so bad yet after 3-4 weeks they had time to iron things out things drastically improved. Shows ya that people need to be more patient in this city Best seats? Anything upper deck first couple rows I agree. We are first row around the endzone and love them.

Speaking of signings......they have 9 days to announce the remainder of the coaching staff. Why all the suspense!! Yes I know they are down in Florida...yadyad.....but come on!!

Well it's official. Congrats to AC on a wonderful CFL career! Fitting as we move to the West and AC retires.

Gary seems to have held quite a few roles in different areas and for many teams. He has experience (wether it being sucessful or not) and with the group of rookies we have maybe it's a good thing to bring in some experience. I'll hold judgement on him until Labour Day and will evaluate him then

Surrendered the most points in franchise history!?!.....yikes

I'm not sure on the cost but you need to lock in for I believe a minimum of five years similar to what the jets did.

I'm not sure but I bet he's Canadian

Thats what I thought also. Bringing in guys who have experience in a few different roles might be a good thing but might also cause conflict as to who should be doing what role. Examples - MB being the OC but has past HC exp, O'shea being HC but has past ST exp, Tracey being ST but having DC exp etc.

Please do. Buzz and Boomer have really underperformed the last few years. And Bella... let's not get into that disaster... Guess we need a Mascot coach as well then?

Right...my bad

So off the top of my head we have: CEO - Canadian - Rookie GM - Canadian - Rookie Head Coach - Canadian - Rookie AGM - American (Danny Mac) AGM - Canadian - Rookie OC - Canadian ST - Canadian WRC - Canadian I don't know much about Drew Morris or Dave Siddall but if we hire a Beaver and a Caribou to be mascots I don't think we can get any more Canadian!
