Hall estimated today that 50% of the offence has changed since MB took over. I didn't figure he would try to change that much so fast but it speaks volumes of how bad the offence was!!

Yeah the HOF should change their page or alter it to show by Club/franchise and not just by the name. See with Hamilton the Tiger-Cats have won 8 Cups but the City has 15. The difference is is that the Hamilton-Tigers, Hamilton Flying Wild Cats etc are defunct teams. They were not the same team with a new name change under the current Hamilton Football club (as far as I know). Had the 1925 Winnipeg Tammany Tigers won or the 42-43 RCAF Bombers I wouldn't consider that as a cup win because they wern't part of the WFC.

In the year 2065 when we are all celebrating #11, ISO will be celebrating #10.... Can't wait to change my signature line to say CHAMP11ONS

And the CFL website says it was the Winnipeg Winnipegs who were nicknamed the 'Pegs. http://cfl.ca/greycupcentral/year/1935 And the Bombers website say 10. http://www.bluebombers.com/page/grey_cups The Winnipeg Football Club was founded in 1930. Changing the name of the team from the Winnipegs to the Blue Bombers doesn't change the fact that the Winnipeg Football Club has won 10 Grey Cups. Well, tell that to the CFL HOF. Because according to them, the "Blue Bombers" have won 9 Grey Cups. I'm not arguing the fact that one may have been under a different name. As it was said before the club has 10. And from the facts site for IGF it says "There is field turf in the east planter parking area, the stripe match the yard markers on the main field. There are 10 first down markers in this turf to commemorate the 10 Grey Cup wins." If it said 9 I wouldn't need to discuss this. It say 10 I just wanted the experts at MBB to tell me if they knew why only 9 are in place. I emailed the Bombers and had no response. This is turning into one of the worlds greatest unsolved mysteries....

I think the difference is Hamiltons were different teams the Bombers were the same team different name. Either way.....the website says 10 first down markers one for each year the won the cup. Lets not argue over the amount. I just enter to know where the 10th is

In all honesty I like this move. Even if it's just to rotate some guys around in the D all the better. Now get that contract signed with Vega!

I demand to know who is making these moves signing aging vets!

So you don't think Max Hall having similar and also better stats then Durant and Lulay isn't something to take note of? Same goes with comparing him with another qb who was playing his first CFL game ever? Still. Not trying to take anything away from Hall but he played against the worst defence (next to us). Goltz had better stats against BC who has a better defence. In all honestly we can complain about each and every QB and who we should have and who we missed out on but the reality is we will never know which QB could have/should have been because of the poor coaching and play calling all these years. What's to say keeping Glenn through all of these different OCs and management changes would have made us any better? He struggled in Hamilton and had his ups and downs just like the other QBs did in Hamilton until Cortez took Burris and turned the offence around. Look what Cortez is now doing with Durant. How about JC in BC and how he runs his offence and Lulay. Do you honestly think Lulay would put up great numbers in Winnipeg??? I believe Hall and Goltz could be successful but until we change our system around they will likely always put up mediocre numbers. Maybe MB turns this thing around maybe it's just a stop gap until we can find someone better.

No........We are the worst and Hamilton is the second worst.

Which one played against the second worst defence?

So the Riders should have zero

I posted this on OB months ago and no one seems to know the answer so thought I'd ask here.... On the East side plaza there are giant blue first down markers at IGF. There are supposed to be one for each grey cup win by the Bombers. To date I still only count 9. What am I missing here??? Does anyone know why there aren't 10??? Did they put the 10th somewhere else? Am I just being too anal about this??

Here is the interview with Jim Toth. http://www.cjob.com/sportsshow/ Good interview.

Fire them all and replace them with the following group......at least it would be some what entertaining!

I agree with the Gibsons rye. Silver cap only though! Other good ryes if ur going cheap go with Segrams 83 from Gimli. White owl is a good over the rocks rye and is clear in colour! I hate CC but got a bottle of CC blackberry flavour and must admit that's some good ****!
