Booch Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 (edited) Pretty nice indication of where a team is at talent and coach wise when chosen by the Players Association Nice for Moe too...recognition from his peers probably means more as well...they are the guys in the league who really know who the true ballers are anyway Edited November 25, 2017 by Booch Atomic, WildPath and Bigblue204 3
Fred C Dobbs Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 Wow, simply wow. Didn't see this coming.
17to85 Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 Pretty interesting stuff. Glad that the players at least recognize Moe Leggett for the player he is. Seems like the kind of guy everyone around the league notices yet the media ignores. Also neat to see them showing O'Shea the love. Players coach if I've ever seen one. wbbfan, Bigblue204 and SPuDS 2 1
Fatty Liver Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 (edited) Impressed that Darvin Adams was chosen as one of the top receivers considering the competition. Edited November 25, 2017 by Throw Long Bannatyne Bigblue204 1
MOBomberFan Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 I love it. Winnipeg has more all stars than CGY and EDM combined. Let's hope we can keep this core together SPuDS 1
Noeller Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 MOS for Coach.... Just fantastic. That makes my day. Really neat to see what players around the league think... That matters so much more than idiot media. wbbfan, JCon and SPuDS 2 1
TBURGESS Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 The players chose a players coach? What a surprise. SPuDS and wbbfan 1 1

I think some of the other receivers get a bit more credit from fans and media than they deserve, maybe based on past seasons. Arsenault didn't do much this year.... everybody loves him. Some of the Eskimo receivers same thing. SPuDS and Fatty Liver 2
Bomber_fanaddict Posted November 25, 2017 Report Posted November 25, 2017 That sounds like one solid team!!! Let make it happen Walters Mark F and SPuDS 1 1

It often seems that after too many years of a players coach, a change to a harder coach is welcomed by players. But then its not like it used to be. When coaches chose pads vs no pad practice, and at rare times some especially tough coaches instituted 2 a days mid season. All HCs now a days seem some variant of a players coach compared to the not soo distant past. Glad for mos and the organization. Been a long time since our HC would be considered for some thing like that. SPuDS 1

I swear every one league wide knows how great moe is, out side of the media that is. I know some other teams fans who love the guy. Chris randle gets a bit more love but still a fraction of what he deserves too. Atomic and SPuDS 2

Yea I've always taken these all-stars as a better indicator then the media picked ones. good on the bombers for such a solid showing. O'shea getting the nod is pretty awesome too.

Sure... but don't you think that might be a factor in a FA deciding whether he'd rather play for Mike O'Shea or get screamed at by Jason Maas (for example)... SPuDS and Noeller 2

Having a coach they want to play for is a big part of it...

Just one more thing to sell a guy on when trying to get their interest. SPuDS and Noeller 1 1
Guest J5V Posted November 27, 2017 Report Posted November 27, 2017 Then why, after 4 years of O'Shea, have we not been able to get a MLB? From Kuale to Hurl it has been a disaster.

From Kuale to Hurl it has been a disaster. Is that due to an inability to attract an MLB, or due to lack of trying because the staff is satisfied with Hurl/Kuale (for whatever reason)? I'd lean towards the second option, as we haven't ever heard of the Bombers trying to attract an FA MLB. Noeller and SPuDS 2

I'd lean towards the second option, as we haven't ever heard of the Bombers trying to attract an FA MLB. I honestly think they were ready to move on from Hurl last year and try out Knox as the MLB, for whatever reason didn't have the ability to find a reliable back up, or another starting CND and brought hurl back in. Fully believe they settled for him and he wasn't what they planned to go with until late. SPuDS 1
BBlink Posted November 27, 2017 Report Posted November 27, 2017 With 3 NI on the offensive line next year...we should be able to build our defense to be a little bit stronger...hopefully. SPuDS 1
