He has always had potential but has never been a good player in the NHL. Maybe being drafted so high has hurt him with expectations.

Lawless: O'Shea & Walters to return in 2016
bb1 replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He has coached the Bombers to a winning record over Montreal and players like all the hugs and kisses he gives them.He is a wizard with film watching too. -
You can put Frolik anywhere in the lineup including pp and pk. Makes his linemates better that's a quote from Maurice. Jokinen was the worst free agent we ever signed no comparison. We hopefully replace Frolik by committee Ehler's offence Burmi's defence.

To be replaced with who? Three coordinators fired in 2 years. Who will come here? People that want to keep MOS because we can't attract quality HC's as they get fired yet want MB fired are just kidding themselves. No quality assistant coach will want to come here because all 3 coordinators hired by our brilliant HC will have been fired if Bellefeuille goes. So MB has to stay because no one better will want to be here. This is what happens when you hire crappy head coaches. You have no idea if what you are saying is true or not. Coaches don't go anywhere expecting to have a permanent job. They always expect to get fired at some point. I'll make you a bet, if MB is still here like you say he will be, then I won't come here anymore...otherwise you have to go....a bet?How about instead you bet will MoS be able to get a top notch OC to come here to this mess? They will look how MoS ties their hands with his personnel decisions and dresses 8 Lbs when we sadly lack Rec or oline help and go thnks but no thnks. Or dresses liram and a import kicker who can do all 3 jobs. We ain't getting any decent OC to come here while MoS is here period.

Absurd. You're watching different games then the rest of us.Nope I agree with Goalie no scoring threat from Burmi at all but is better defensively than I thought. Will shake out as fourth line guy tops. Petan has way more upside but Maurice is bringing him along slowly for now.

Yea but your now saying Hall should go too. When does the buck stop at the person responsible for hiring these assistants? I get it he's a good guy, great to his players but he ain't a good HC the record speaks for itself. -
Lawless: O'Shea & Walters to return in 2016
bb1 replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I'm going to call you out and say a large Bullshit!Then I'll offer a challenge, explain why keeping Walters and MOS is a good idea. Here's a question, and I realize it's a hypothetical but play along if you don't mind (Others as well if you feel so inclined).Consider the wins we have now this season, and the amount of games we've lost in the final few minutes this year. Now assume we build a solid offensive line, Drew Willy plays 15-17 games (it's rare to play all 18 after all) and we have a new OC - What do you think our record is? Just curious. Who the hell cares? The fact is if this was a GOOD team you wouldn't have to make excuses. Calgary, Toronto, Hamilton, Edmonton, and Ottawa have all had injuries and adversity and come out on top on a majority of their games. Winnipeg gets beat by one injury and the slightest whiff of adversity.If Willy was healthy we win two more games, three tops. If we had a different OC? The same two games. What you are forgetting is that most of our losses were not by a point or two. The point is moot. This isn't a good team or a close to good team playing below their abilities this is a bad team playing at the peak of their abilities. Three of those teams have had the same QB for every game this season (Calgary, Toronto, Ottawa), and the other two have unquestionably the top two defences in the league. Sure all of them have injuries as well, but keep in mind some those teams you mentioned (home games against Calgary, Edmonton, and Ottawa immediately come to mind) very likely are not losses given the scenario I provided. The injuries they have (nevermind their respective offensive staffs) aren't in the realm of ours either currently.Edmonton Tor BC Mont all qbs issues their gonna be in, we're not. Man the excuses for this regime never ends . For Fuxk sake Popp has changed coaches fired his OC and gone through 5 qbs and is still gonna be in the playoffs over us. -

Why would any one want to come here after 3 years of a mess that MoS is gonna leave us when he gets canned next year? Name me one good coach in the CFl that took 3 years to field a competitive team? Only in Winnipeg could we settle for this tripe. -
7-11 last year if we are lucky 6-12 this year yea the anti MoS we just aren't patient enough, he just needs more time to find another good OC and special teams coach. Hopefully they fall in his lap cause he sure as hell can't pick em. People were calling Popp a circus well guess what circus is gonna make the playoffs over our clowns?

Then you could volunteer to be his offensive coordinator, cause they couldn't afford to pay one.Yes they could. 3,000 extra tickets sold per game over a full season is an extra ~2 million dollars. Not very good at math, hey?Once they put together a legitimate balance sheet that demonstrates an ability to operate the Football Club, IGF and service their debts we can start dreaming. They haven't done that since the stadium opened. I don't know how you budget for sellouts. Hiring Hufnagel isn't like flipping a switch.I didn't budget for a sellout with Huff. I budgeted for 3000 more per game which would be an average of 30-31k per game. Realistic if you look at attendance during the 2011 Swaggerville season. If Huff could produce a consistent 10-12 win team, he'd more than pay for his salary at $1 million per season as GM and HC.And if he wins 15 games over two seasons and you want to fire him? Can you, or are you too invested financially? Hufnagel's success isn't just him. He's got the best personnel guy in the recent history of the league with him, he's got Dickenson, Stubler etc. If you can't build that organization, what's the point of paying one person?His rep would certainly attract top notch people to work with him. Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of his staff followed him. Might take a year or two, but he'd produce a winner.So year two and we still have no winning team, no decent OC cuz we cant afford one, crappy talent from firing walters and replacing with no name scouts as we couldnt afford better.. And huff is on the hot seat.. And willy or our starter goes down for a long time.. You can say how awesome it could be but flipping the coin it could be just as much a disaster.. Fun game I suppose. Isn't what your describing what we are going through right now?

Why start a narrative that isn't there? What deflection?Ofcourse it's a rejection. When the government gets beat like this it's a rejection. It doesn't meant there aren't other reasons. But certainly a rejection of the government. Liberals + 39 in Quebec. NDP -51. That tells the story. Really? No jk unknown poster:)

ahhh...the voice of reason!Yeah we keep progressing like this we should hit 4 wins next year.......

Odds and Sods - Game 16 Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Ottawa Red Blacks

Your right it ain't the only problem but it's a combo of all of them which tells me it ain't just MB. -
Odds and Sods - Game 16 Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Ottawa Red Blacks
bb1 replied to do or die's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You mentioned 9 linebackers (listed) and 1 backup receiver. Explain why this was a roster management no no. Serious question.Cause our offense sucks and we are playing Stoudemire as one of our REC? Like WTF? -
Yeah your right this is what Harper was worried about.
-
No gullible is believing that the big bad conservative boogeyman actually give a rats ass about equality.
-
Symbols of oppression? Listen if I believed you were gullible enough to fall for that I would just shake my head and move on.Its just another ploy by a party to win an election and you know it.
-
I'm not a MOS fan but it would seem to me this falls on Hall no?
-
Well if that's his ONLY problem it's still huge cause this is pro ball and you go with players if they produce period. BTW you can throw in holding on to a subpar OC as well which falls on MOS.
-
Burmi had a good game can't score but we probably don't need him to.Still kinda not sold on Petan on the fourth,this kid needs to play.Confident that Maurice will do what's best for him though great coach at developing players imo.

Bombers vs RedBlacks (and Jovon's chirp)
bb1 replied to Westy Sucks's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
So no help for our struggling offense?Just one backup Cdn rec?We can still win but our reliance on the D to carry us is gonna kick us in ass sooner or later Imo. -
I agree with some of this article but there is no way in hell Harper gives up his power even if the Cons squeak in.There is only one way to ensure Harper leaves.
-
He is the most experienced clipboard holder we have.I hear he is great at fetching MB his beer when he is formulating the game plan as well.

Edmonton Oilers LOL (perhaps Calgary Flames LOL)
bb1 replied to IC Khari's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Waaay to early to make that comparison.I just hope they don't put too much pressure on McDavid.
