But its easy to be rigidly stupid. "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls.....and tenement walls". Or is it Quizno's?

'Tis a mystery, to be sure.

We could start a GoFundMe...

That is, with all due respect, no freaking mixed message. It is a large, economy-sized FU to the team from, I believe, O'Shea. Only the first third? You are being wildly optimistic.

Words fail me, and I am a published author.

So..... it was a Love/hate situation?

Looks to be one of those dark horses who will either fail in training camp (if he shows) or wow everyone.

I am not saying we should go chasing quarterbacks but there has to be concern about Collaros, considering his degrading performances in the past 2-3 years. I hope that Walters has a viable plan B in case Collaros gets off to another poor start and/or gets dinged again.

Nope. Wilson and Dolegala were certainly better than Collaros was at that time. Her answer to him was probably along the lines of "there isn't enough beer in the stadium".

Really, it was O'Shea's decision to put Collaros back in when there was a potentially viable alternative that cost the win.

If the backup QBs were not good enough to replace a QB with a buggered-up index finger on his throwing hand, why the Hell were they there at all? That would seem to be a huge waste of money. Or would that have been a big FU to Walters for forcing him to tt Nichols and start Collaros way back? Because O'Shea.

A testament to O'Shea's rigid thinking.

Agreed. His personality would want him to be in a media center such as New Yawk.

Disagree. The Bombers as a team played very poorly due to several key players (who have been outed repeatedly here). We were letting the game slip away before Collaros was injured and he was trending downwards way before that.

Not if O'Shea has anything to say about it.

When a GM sees the team deteriorate and lose three winnable Grey cup games in a row for the same reasons,, he had better step in as has happened before or he will be unemployed.

I think Walters' biggest failing is that he has allowed O'Shea to keep fading/faded players and let promising newbies go.

If the rumours about a lingering injury left over from the 2023 season were true, that would explain all that. Neuf is a good guy and effective when healthy, so lets us hope he is over whatever was limiting him, and hope further that he doesn't have to compensate for a new right guard and incompetent center. There's a fair bit of money to be gained by dumping at least three veterans who, frankly, were not worth their salaries.

And a Haiku to you too.

I fear that we will see LaPolice back again. It wouldn't be a complete disaster, but it would be a clear signal that O'Shea is going to dish out more of what we've had.

Given the way the team rolled over in the Grey Cup game for the third time and struggled through much of the year with the same old problems, there ought to be a significant overhaul rather than a minor tweak or two. So long a O'Shea is Head Coach, I am not confident this is going to happen- the lack of announcements about Jake Thomas and Bighill is worrisome.

Seems to shed blockers well, but more quick than fast.

Wrong Thomas moving out, IMO.

Something like that. I don't know where his head was during the game, but I bet he could see his pancreas from there.
