The Unknown Poster

The bombers tampered with Barron Simpson. Signed him one second into free agency. Obviously spoke to him before his contract expired. It happens. No need to exaggerate the time frame to try to make a point.

Just because someone else tampered first and Simpson wanted to play here doesnt mean its not tampering. Everyone tampers in the CFL. Point made. Thank you.

Not so sure. Unknown Poster is probably the staunchest Burke apologist and Pierce fan on the board. He's either serious, or doing some deep water trolling. No definitely a troll, tries to be funny with it but falls short in that regard. Real pity it's so obvious cause with some more refining could be a beauty. I'm a troll?? Hahahahaha the state of this place. Sad.

Everyone tampers.

I was joking. Also Im not a Burke apologist. I just realise he isnt the devil incarnate sent to earth to maliciously destroy the Bombers. He's a human being. The personal insults towards him months later became ridiculous. Im not the only one who found this place getting far too negative. Mike, you used to be a huge Buck fan. I'm a Buck fan but I supported going in a different direction last season.

Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there.

Buy the cheapest seats and just stand at the 55 yard line like I do.

Is Riders fans suggest we hire someone, isnt that reason enough not to?

Oh well.

The D has been awful. And it's not Pavs. It would be nice if he stole games but you cant rely on that. He *has* been inconsistant but the D is as much if not more to blame than Pavs. Buff has been dreadful and *should* be traded (I never thought I'd feel that way but its true).

There was some positive comments about Buck when he was basically assisting Crowton. I believe it was said he's got a future as a coach. He also said he sees himself coaching one day. I'm not sure he's ready to retire and if he keeps playing I wish nothing but success and good health for him. As a person of rather he retire and not risk further brain trauma. But he's a good guy, a good QB.

One million bucks isn't worth the embarrassment. Stupid. This government....I tell ya

There is nothing mean-spirited or even negative about caring and having an opinion about who your team tabs to coach the most important position on its roster. Nope I didn't say there was. But there are people who are very personal and insulting when discussing players and/of coaches on here. It's just needed.

Why? Because posters don't want a less-than stellar former QB to be our QB coach just because he's a good guy and pays a mortgage in WPG? Did I say this thread had become negative? No the forum has. Maybe because there is so little happening right now. But when the talk is football and it's respectful this is the best forum there is.

Certainly this forum has become very negative and, at times, mean spirited.

Buck.

Netflix will be streaming 4K by February. If the TV manufacturers are smart (and Netflix), they work together. The more 4k content Netflix has, the more likely people will be to buy those TVs.

Weird that the flu is taking down healthy people but not sick or elderly.

CNN (I think) had a recent article about technologies that would soon disappear and Blu Ray was one of them. Im not sure I buy that. The reasoning was, movies will all be streamed. Personally, I like owning movies and all the extras that come with them. If you're into movies, there is a certain pride that comes with the collection. On another note, Best Buy had a 4k display going and it was amazing. I would have bought one on the spot but I want size, price and available content to all come together before I do. But what a fabulous image.

Doug Brown has great hindsight. He also wanted Greg Marshall as Head Coach if I recall correctly.

If reports are accurate, Walters' draft chart was very different from Mack's and Mack's opinion won out.

That's not entirely accurate. Do you want him to come to your house and apologize? He's gone. Get over it.

I won't defend him as a HC but I think it's time to move on. Unlike Kelly, Burke had some class. One of the finest DC'a in the CFL. I just think we could show a bit more class around here. The Burke era is over.

I wonder which year we will stop all the Burke bashing.

Looks good. Enjoy it. I trust you also do have a Blu Ray player?
