  1. Post all relevant deadline deals and discussion here. And a live question for the group: Which would be the best and worst things the Jets could do: (a) make a trade to acquire a piece for a playoff push (b) abandon the playoff run now and trade off assets to build for the future (c) stand pat and use your own players as playoff rentals And if you think a trade should happen, who should they get/give away, AND more importantly, what does the trade look like. An answer like “trade Scheifele, doesn’t matter who for, just get rid of him” is weak and just stupid noise, let’s be serious about who leaves or comes in and how it would work with salary cap factored in.
  2. I will choose to nickname him “Royale with Cheese”.
  3. Looking forward to watching his progression this year.
  4. Pretty remarkable feat for Gushue to win with a three man team for the playoff run. Aside from the extra throwing for the lead and second in altered roles, the sweeping game had to be revamped. Amazing performance. And for those dumping on McEwen, he isn’t “sent” by Manitoba, he earns his place by winning the Province. He still seems to freeze in the big moments and take strange risks at bad times, but remember that Gushue himself took 14 tries before he won his first Brier, and now he has 4 in the last 6 years.
  5. Must be like looking at a photo negative of yourself. Between the two of you, consider it balanced coverage.
  6. No news yet. Grant hasn’t signed with any other team yet either, so…….. And we bring in extra receivers to camp every year with the Hope one will surprise and stick. The turnover for returners and depth chart receivers seems high with this club, so concern is lower at this time. Again, positions that history has shown can be plugged more easily than others.
  7. It also proves that you don’t have stats to show how we were screwed with the “incompetent” kicking we suffered through. Mourtada did get better after his bad start, but his fate was sealed on this board after his first misses in his first game. People need to get past Medlock being gone. Sure our kicking game was weaker, BUT it did not cost us games like you suggest, and when the chips are down, Walters got it sorted out. Liegghio is the future and that has not changed despite his struggles hitting converts. Mourtada improved enough to keep around and deserve to fight it out at camp. And if they both crap the bed, we saw last year that there are options out there can can be airlifted in fairly quickly. Let’s just dial down the “sky is falling” rhetoric a bit, perhaps? It’s March, we are down a kick returner and starting receiver, dropping from 4 kickers to 3 on the roster is not the death blow here.
  8. All of them were our kickers when we won. Our record with Crapigna as our placekicker: 2-1. Games he actually cost us with his misses. Zero Record with Liegghio placekicking: 3-0. Games his kicking points won us the game. One. Record with Mourtada placekicking: 5-0. Games his kicking points won us the game. One. Record with Castillo placekicking: 1-2. (2-0 in playoffs). Games his kicking points won us the game. One. (One in playoffs) Games he actually cost us with his misses. One. (Zero in playoffs)
  9. Medlock was brought in to compete with him, and outperformed him in camp, so he got cut. Plenty of kickers get second chances. With your mindset, Bob Cameron would never have been given a shot with the Bombers, having been cut 8 times previously. As last year showed, there’s always time to try out a new kicker. I don’t think the consternation is warranted just yet.
  10. Can the UN Peacekeeping force step in if civilians are being targeted?
  11. We gave a second chance to Sergio Castillo. Worked out well enough, wouldn’t you say?
  12. Ali Mourtada is ready to step up. He may fail, but let’s give him a chance in camp first. Or bring in Jon Ryan and see if he can kick field goals. Or Liegghio. Or Crapigna.
  13. Such reasonableness and logic will not be tolerated here.
  14. https://www.bluebombers.com/2020/08/07/first-10-grey-cup-rings/
  15. 2019 ones did not get unveiled until August 6, 2020.
  16. Maybe you actually prefer the opportunity to complain about the losses, so it feeds your spirit and gives you a chance to vent your spleen.
  17. Thursday’s entrant, Mr. Bryant Turner Jr. And today’s, Tyrone Rodgers.
  18. And who demands that all voters need a valid license as proof of ID to be eligible to vote. Read his Wikipedia bio. You know, I had never wanted to punch a guy in the face who was confined to a wheelchair before today.
  19. Again, no mention of forcing a father to watch the ultrasound or take any responsibility past conception.
  20. So…..The Roy Green Show.
