  1. whoever decision it has been to stand pat...should get a good smack upside the head from Miller
  2. we aren't in a cap crunch dilema...we just don't have a regime that can or know how to make big moves and adjust to make it work if need be...loyalty to second level players can only go so far until it's time to not be all nice and fuzzy anymore...we just dont have the stones to do it...and why we can't seem to get over the hump in the past 5 years
  3. Ekakite didnt get big up front money..nor was Bowmans signing bonus which would hurt ..heck all he got in total was 140 if he played all year..and was only here for what 4 games?? Dressler..Wild..Medlock..all are playing for less this year..Strevler and Bennett are less than Davis and Lefevour..Moe has been off books...Harris..Bighill..are under 200k a year..Nevis is a cheap 120k..Roh was reported under 100k and Jeffcoat..Poop..Bryant are all entry level which offsets Opo' s 170k really Even Neufeld was reported at 140k which is peanuts for a Nationsl starting olineman. Randle and Fenner are making market value for their position and other than Fogg who isnt making a lot and Loffler who is still on his first contract the rest of defence is pretty much on entry level deals. Even factoring in Bryant's and Hardricks deals which aren't earth shattering by any means but in line with any other teams players of similar skill/tenure there is no reason we are in cap restraint mode. Demskis over pay if u ask me at 130-140k isnt breaking us. The no cap room talk is just that.. talk
  4. Quite a few here and on other sites know a good deal about who I am/was..and didnt attack any credibility.. if u take someone saying dont blabber on about stuff you have no clue about as a credibility issue..then maybe dont blabber on U said guys cant come in and play..and dont have an iota of an idea of what most pro-ready/released guys do to maintain game shape..and actually play modified games for a call such as Matthew's just got...where as I know exactly what guys are doing..have done it..and now in a few instances help facilitate it as well.. and yeah I post on a fan board like many as a fan of the game and for interesting interaction It would prob blow your lil nutsack off if u actually knew who some of the aliases were on some of these boards.. tho I shouldn't assume u have one cause for all I know about u is that u could be a female behind your username..and dont wanna make offensive comments about your anatomy
  5. ask them about it after he gauges our defence when we play them hahahaha
  6. and guaranteed he would have had interest in coming here...he really liked it here and 9 out of 10 guys show loyalty to the team who gave him his chance...and he seemed like one of those 9..
  7. And we are in no fear of cap issues either...a late season signing isn't going to hurt us in the least and I bet you see many an extension at end of the year with upfront money from this year still available...the up against the cap talk is all message board fabrication and assumptioms...and has no legitimacy to it
  8. guys in the states...and ones with hopes of furthering their careers when a chance pops up don't just train in the gym...i know from experience and are continually playing mock games with others, training in elite facilities and are game ready....Pretty sure Plesius wasn't doing that. Don't blabber on about things that you don't really know about
  9. and no...it's pretty easy to run down our regime for their lack of continually evolving the roster...they even say it as much themselves about being happy with their guys....on many occasions Great teams continually bring guys in who they think are an upgrade...and obviously he had interest in playing up here as he has signed. I'
  10. guys don't sit around on couches these days and do nothing...they are training constantly 24/7 for another shot And it would be easy to integrate a skill set like that in a lineup pretty seamlessly...it's not like he has never played the Canadian game
  11. He was hurt his last year here and it was amazing he made it on roster each game from what I hear....and pretty sure he could step right in and play...
  12. it was tweeted out at some point that Walters said the Bombers had no interest in Mathews...wasn't message board assumptions...that is why this team flounders...they don't constantly upgrade when opportunity arises and show too much loyalty to whatever scrub makes it out of TC
  13. we said in the media we had no interest in bringing him in...dumb....so dumb I actually hope he lights us up when we play CGY
  14. so obviously he has CFL interest...and why we didn't bring him back based on our lack of receiver out put just baffles the mind We claimed to have no interest and were happy with our guys...Like Lankford and Wshington who we don't really dress or use properly when we do
  15. Well I said in a different thread that if we got Nichols head back in place and played decent on offence we could go realistically 4-2 and possibly 5-1 in last 6 games..well we are halfway to that and if not for the Crapshow QB show in Banjo bowl could be 3-0 instead of 2-1 At worst I see us splitting our last 4..and running the table isnt out of question if that new scheme on defense is an actual thing and not just an aberration
  16. SO every time a team loses it's a case of mailing it in?...that makes no sense...Is it not just a case of a team got beat by a better team/gameplan that certain day? Having played personally...I have never came across an instance where collectively as a team we just "mailed it in" And even in games at end of year where we sat starters, or in College where we played Sophmores and Juniors to protect the lineup come play-offs the team if anything played even harder and more intensely
  17. and we really could have shut the Schmoes out last week..their sole points came off an end of quarter drive...where we played a bit of soft zone to prevent being burned for a TD at end of half
  18. How did they mail it in?...Did Montreal mail in their loss too?...same with the leos?
  19. Import o-lineman does nothing to make us better really....Neufeld has played just fine and at this point in season Harris has rushed for more yards already than he did last year, and we have given up less sacks...scored more points....if we are to reconfigure a DI spot on roster it would best be served to use it on a guy who is a return demon and is a threat to flip a field anytime he touches the ball...and hopefully play DB....Especially come fall football...a bigtime returner is vital
  20. The scheme we ran against Edmonton is something that would be successful game in and game out, and get better as the defense settles into it too...why it wasn't done much if at all prior to this is somewhat baffling considering the results, as the main premise of it is not something new and exotic, nor unfamiliar in style to this league...very weird...and If they revert back to the "old" style they were using next game...something is really wrong. Also too...the emergence of Sayles as actually being really good (was not sold on him originally) as well as Alexander really settling in and becoming a presence might possibly be allowing us to play this style more now...if things are gelling and coming together ...finally now and the defense is peaking....it's the perfect time for it to happen with playoffs coming right up and possible jockying for position in final standings
  21. WHO CARES....if taxes pay for it so be it as in the end nobody will notice it on their own personal bottom line...you were gonna pay tax anyway toward..whatever so big deal This is a big win win for the Bombers and the University...Based on the average revenue from the Stadium and Bombers since it opened they have been in the black like what...anywhere from 7 to 10 million a year (more if hosting a Grey Cup)? On going now this will allow for a percentage to be put away each year for maintenance and upgrades etc...and a nice portion of profit each year in the Bombers pockets...which in the longterm will venerable the team to continually attract higher end free agents and players....sure it has no effect on the SMS as all teams play under the same figure.....but adding amenities..facility perks...treatment options..player perks..etc...it goes a long way in a SMS based league..especially short career one such as in football at the lesser wage earned in Canada
  22. If demski cant go..I'd put Woli in the slot and Simonese outside..we be a better offence with at than with Peterman in..still too inconsistent and has had 3 or 4 pretty bad drops last 2 games. Simonese would draw constant attention on boundary and is likely able to cause some mismatches
  23. Weeks 2..6..7...9..11..and 14 threw for over 300...as well as in playoffs with 4 games in high 200' s sprinkled in there...and was winning He's obvious not at 100 percent and it affecting his game..I say kudos for toughing it out to be honest
  24. yeah they need to be 1980's away whites..all white except for banding around the cuffs of the sleeve...blue shoulders just look dumb
  25. Neufeld has been just fine at guard...actually more than fine...the fact he strugged a bit at Tackle is really insignificant, as technically he is an injury replacement there and 3rd in line for that spot
