word is that Bombers and Ticats both put "starter" money out there for Collaros. What more could the Bombers do? Like other posters here, I think our reputation swayed him, not the $$$. That's all fine and good, but we still blew another opportunity. I don' t care what the reason is/was whatever... Come on, there are plenty of factors in play here. If the bombers were outbid I'd be upset but if he chose the Ticats and the Bombers did everything they could, what more can you ask. That's fine for you to think that way and I have no problem with that reasoning, but... we still FAILED again and this fan is sick of it. i don't blame you there. the constant negative results on and off the field is certainly hard on fans.

Well there you go. If he is correct then what else could the Bombers do? I'll speculate - he chose the Ticats because of our reputation as a shithole of a franchise. It takes time to change that reputation.

Within reason yes, I agree. It's not like we were competing for Anthony Calvillo in his prime. There is some risk involved as he is still largely unproven.

Until we know what offers were made by each team, I think that the bolded is statement is just speculation. If the Bombers were outbid, then I'd really be pissed off.

Damn, I wanted him bad. Well i guess its Hank & Willy (I hope). Too bad this team's reputation is a joke.

I'm with you but I think we will have to wait if he has any NFL tryouts first.

I'm ok with this signing and that's all that matters. Good Day, sirs.

I agree - if we can pull off a Willy we should be extremely satisfied. Got some extra time on your HANDS, KBF?

This is why willing to be open minded and give MB a chance. Trying to work with crowton's offense in the last half of the year hamstrung MB. Let's see what he can do with a full TC under his terms.

I'm not wild about this hire but I will give him a chance. A full TC with his own play book and we'll see.

That might explain it then.

Kohlert - I'm not happy. Why would they protect Poblah/Etienne over him?

I would have posted earlier but i was too busy triple quoting Mike's post.

I often wonder why TSN continues to employ him. He adds nothing to any broadcast.

TSN's coverage is not official as they are not capitalizing REDBLACKS.

I agree. I only hope Stephan can step up and play as well as Labbe did.

Good for him. Labbe was under appreciated in Bomberland in my opinion. Very solid depth and ST guy.

Thank you - you've just given me inspiration for my sig. Oh and I love the choice of O'Shea, by the way.

Bilukidi finally catched up on the Bengals. AWW ****. Hopefully the Bungles will draft a bunch of DTs in April.

it will be three years in a row. Remember the 2011 Grey Cup? Bomber fans tend to forget that one. Not that you and I remember a hell of a lot about those 2 days. I remember pouring my brother into a cab (lightweight) and then you and I going to find Bluto, but a lot of it is fuzzy. Speaking of Bluto - how is he doing? Clearly devastated by the Argos fold job. didn't expect that but I wasn't surprised by the Stamps choking away another Western Final.

Agreed. he had to be fired but he wasn't a jerk like Kelly so its tough to see a good person lose their job despite his apparent incompetance at it.

Please, do not employ rational thought to mitigate my suffering.

I am going to weep when looking at that list. Once had Labatte and could have gotten Jones with our 2ND ROUND pick. I used to defend mack for his drafts but I'm becoming less forgiving over time. Hindsight is a beautiful thing.
