Mike Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 I know Saskatchewan has a few receivers they’re pretty high on and they usually seem to be able to churn out some decent D-linemen but I honestly haven’t heard much in the way of hype coming from that fanbase wbbfan and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely needed a culture shift there...that's key...I think tho not much will change tho until they punt O'Day too Piggy 1 and wbbfan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mace is the right guy, it'll be at least another year to get the ship corrected. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Riders break out fast and fade as the year goes on.

In an ideal world RedBlacks take the East which realistically ain't going to happen. Lots of nice guys have been head coaches & failed as it's a cutthroat business.

The fact he only played like 8 games last year suggests he might have lost some of it. He also does nothing else. Not a running back. Not a receiver. I dunno. It’s not like he was at nfl camps and was cut. Teams could have signed him weeks ago. 22 minutes ago, blue85gold said: Damn that one stings a bit Not sure why honestly.

Don't pretend this was the Bombers brilliant decision, they didn't have enough money left over to pay a returner anything more than min. wage.

Yes they did. They just didn’t want to. I mean really. It’s pretty obvious at this point they decided to move on. If you believe that they didn’t have money to pay him, man cmon. Why so naive. Reality. He wasn’t a priority and is only a kick returner. How much you think the argos paying him signing him 10 days before the season Edited May 28 by Goalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
