We are likely to not have the horses to play firewagon football and with all of the coaching changes, we are probably going to have to go with a pretty simplified playbook until the team gels, so get ready for some boring football. if that boring football means winning games, i dont really care and after last season, i dont think it could get any worse. Not sure why you expect boring football, football in my opinion, its never boring. always something exciting going on.

MB has got to know this is his last chance to prove he can be a very good OC in this league so i dont completely expect the same old MB conservative offence, however, if our d is very good (they could be), you dont need to exactly light up other teams on offence, you just need to do enough to win really. I'm not sure we have the personal for this ultra dynamic offence people want. Would i like an offence that is trend setting and other teams want to copy? you bet, but.... i don't expect that. Its football, there is only so much you can do and only so much that works. If our D is good enough, they might or might not be, who really knows right now, there is nothing wrong with playing a bit conservative. I've always liked the teams that rarely to never turn the ball over, those teams generally win the game, isn't it fact that in most games in the CFL, the team that turns the ball over the least generally wins? If being conservative means less turnovers, that's fine with me.

i dunno, sure what he said was pretty homophobic but you guys are being pretty naive if you can't admit that none of you have ever said or done something stupid. I mean really, maybe its just me and my friends but i doubt it, but... calling each other "gay" has been going on for years, man thats "so gay". whats the difference? the difference is we dont have thousands of followers on twitter or facebook or whatever else. I have a hard time black balling a guy for having an opinion, is this what the world has come too? You can't have a different opinion than someone else? And again in the dont want to say it category, not saying i agree with what he said but you can bet your butt that lots of people do. I just dont like the idea of not brining in a talented player because he said something silly on twitter, even though lots of people im sure agree with him. Again, not saying i agree with what he said, but... he has the right to say it.

for some reason, the name brett mcneil keeps popping in my head for this. He already lives here, coaches the rifles and i believe the bisons or did.

read somewhere that several teams are interested in goosen, not just as a centre though. He is apparently quite versatile and can play guard also so really teams need these types of players, i think they probably want goosen maybe not as a centre though.

I know they love the guy and nobody wants to give up a roster player, but if I'm Walters, I'm hardballing Buono. I don't want two picks for the #2, I want #5 and a guy like Haidara. oh i agree, 2 picks isn't enough. I was thinking like #5 and westerman. But haidara works too.

hate saying this but if the stamps cut mo price, i hope the bombers make a call to him, so he said something on twitter, and yeah it was pretty homophobic but... he's a darn good football player. Moore,Price,Denmark. <-- thats sick.

penton tweeted that bc really wants to move up to #2 and is wondering if walters will give buono want he wants. # 2 for #5 and #14 or keep #2.

phaneuf is ok, but at 7 million a year, he'd have to play first pairing minutes and we'd be in trouble. Look at the leafs the last 2 years, massive choke jobs.. dion captain of the team, they probably wont move him cuz nobody will give them what they want for phaneuf but if he is moved, i highly doubt winnipeg is even interested. Doesn't make much sense from a jets perspective here at all.

Maybe its henoc just kidding, probably not a CFL lb, if it is, regardless of what penton said, i'm gonna go with mccune.

heres what maurice price of the stamps thought http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=451999 Disgusting comments there.

name 3 of those talented players, all i got is parker. That's it. The other is a guy who had a good mini camp and hasn't played a down in the CFL. I mean i agree that i don't think he will be our next season, but what "talented players" did we cut exactly? we have cut potenitally talented (based on a mini camp) players and a guy who played 8 games in 2 seasons.

I'm not, its the CFL draft, these trades never happen. Maybe you will see a team trade their first and 2nd to a team in the top 3 tho for their first. I wouldn't expect anything too earth shattering.

Cauchy sucked last season but lets not pretend that the entire D didnt suck cuz they certainly did. Outside of the dline and henoc and wild, the rest all pretty much sucked. I see a few suggestions that the D sucked because our O sucked so bad, but i recall a few games where our O couldnt get on the field barely because the other teams would march at will vs our D. We have always had pretty good Defences here, last year we did not. Not many guys left from last years team it seems... Really on D, you got turner,anderson, i'm going to include vega, wild,washington,dunn,markett and sears plus a bunch of role players (dan west and the sorts) Pretty apparent that cauchy wasn't our only issue on D last season.

rumors are the leafs are looking for a top 6 forward, preferably a centre. so i doubt the leafs would make a move for bogo. They would want a kane or little or someone like that. A top 6 forward.

Remaining rounds are on TSN.ca. yeah like always, i just don't understand why they couldn't cover it all on tv, maximum of what 3 hours?

all i have to say regarding the us elections is... we the people.

first round of the draft on tsn tomorrow at 6pm. Not sure why they couldn't cover the entire draft, it's not like it would take that long.

Maybe $3.75 to 4..... Princess Di isn't a bad hire for around 3 mill., and yeah he'd be on the 2nd pairing. Not a huge difference-maker but certainly solid experience and grit would be added. What would we have to give TO - neg rights to Kylie Wellwood? try kane or buff.

I'm not sure ETCH lasts the season but... with that being said, if he fails, he will have no excuses. I'm fine with ETCH having a say in who plays on our D, after all he is our D coorinator and should have a say. No square pegs in to round holes here it seems, if you don't fit his scheme, you are gone. I dunno right, it's not like our D was anything special the last couple seasons and that was with tim burke and creehan running the show. If ETCH fails, i do think he will fail also, there will be no excuses, he will fail cuz the players he wanted failed. I'd be a little more concerned if our D was actually any good the last couple seasons, they really weren't tho outside of the dline.

TSN mentions minny dallas and edmonton, no mention of winnipeg at all.

I'm sure they tried to trade him but no takers.

Heres one.. Kane,Pav to Toronto for phaneuf,reimer, 8th overall. But i still don't see it happening.

parker does have a history of injury problems too does he not? acl wasn't the only injury he had was it? cuz thought he had a hard time consistently staying on the field throughout his career here.

I don't buy it, Jets need defensive d men not offensive d men who suck. Phaneuf is terrible, there is a reason toronto is trying to move him, lol at the Jets suggestion, just does not fit the teams needs or really the teams profile at all. Plus who do you send to toronto for him? buff? kane? cuz that's who we'd have to move and i'd suspect other teams would be willing to offer more and better packages for those 2 then just dion paheneuf. However, if elisha cuthbert comes with him
