Wade would rather have consistent 30K crowds than a one-time 50K one, most of whom will never be seen again.

It was not his decision.

I cannot accept that the Bomber played that poorly in the Cup game because they played so well against the Greenies- that ought to have gotten absolutely pumped against the Argos.

I would bet Mr. O'Shea knows exactly what went wrong and knows that he is on the hot seat, but is in public denial. Whistling past the graveyard.

Don Matthews was a legend but his end was less than glorious.

If the Bombers clear out the deadwood (over O'Shea's deceased form), there ought to be enough money to upgrade a lot of other positions and keep vital players. I am of the firm opinion that Collaros is not worth the money he is being paid and he is trending is downward, so moving him is definitely an option, maybe even necessity. Moreover, Brady's comments are indicative of the malaise in the team that other players are feeling. That he spoke so directly means he is very unhappy and the Bombers would be insane to ignore that.

Better track record, though, although Cal had to work with a bargain basement budget.

His brittleness is the concern.

Absolutely. If Miller/Walters/O'Shea think that the vast majority of Bomber fans are to stupid to have seen what has been going on, they will be shocked when the attendance falls.

Disagree- we here are rightfully pissed at Collaros (among others) but Collaros is the target of opportunity as the de facto leader of the team and highest paid player. Anyone can have a bad day, but he has been trending downward and choking far too often.

Bad decisions for the Elks continue.

Has to be an either/or situation, not a tandem.

We can only hope. Buck seems to be reasonably intelligent and as a former QB. he ought to be able to recognize what the opposing defence is doing and figure out how to counter it.

You cannot say nothing lasts forever- you have not listened to one of my wife's lectures.

If Walters and miller do not have a war council (with or without O'Shea), we are going to be in worse shape next season. I can put up with a bit of a down year if a new head coach and possibly assistant coaches settle in, but if there is no change, I will be pretty scarce around here (cue thunderous applause).

To be fair, the Bombers were scrooged waaay before that.

But what will happen if/when Younger leaves? I am still puzzled at Hubert's excommunication- he looked at least better than Thomas and Schmekel and suddenly he was deemed unfit to play a down.

I could feel my then-cautious optimism drop like a stone in a well when the Bombers took a knee just before half-time with 45 seconds or so left. That felt like the bombers were conceding that they had no hope of completing a couple of passes to get within field goal range before time ran out. The icing on the cake came when they went 2 and out at the start of the third quarter. As a behaviourist, I noted that the o-line heads were down and I figured that was confirmation the game was over, whether the Bombers admitted it or not, I would bet the Argo coaches saw that too.

Not good at all, but what else would you expect when his butt has been stapled to the bench all season?

And better than the Riders' O-line but that is cold comfort.

Or dead and in a wheelchair? Are the inmates running the asylum? Contrast that against the TSN report that in mid-season, LaVaris Daniels was carping about his playing time, so Dinwiddie threatened him with a trade. So Daniels smartened up immediately.

Maybe.

We sure as hell can find someone who could play as well as Collaros did in the Cup game for that money.

Or. it could fall into the category of "mysterious moves by O'Shea"

O'Shea's personality will not make it easy or perhaps even possible to fire Buck if he is responsible.
