Why the doubts about his staying power?

same. I do like his talent too. I have doubts about his staying power and that contract is wild, but i respect the guy.

100% same boat. When he stepped up and pasted the rule changes he made a new fan in me.

I admit to hating on the Rourke hype as much as anyone. When he tore into the new commish and the dumb rule changes… I liked Rourke the player quite a bit more.

Well, Captain Canada didn't sound impressed about having to play in the CFL his first round. Having sand thrown in his face by NFL head coaches & general managers seemed to have humbled Rourke. This is still the second best pro football league in the world. The competition is very difficult for some divas who fail. They come up here from US colleges & they find out fast that they better buckle up their chinstrap cuz it ain't as easy as thry thought.

I just hope we have a team to rise with. Other cities sellout win or lose. Winnipeggers start pouting, point fingers & stay home.

Hope is not an actionable strategy.

I wonder if Kyle will get to play - by the end of the 4 Nations Cup he was benched.

and yet because of that pain that year we got Dale Hawerchuk. As a wise person once told me - there is no great loss without some small gain. You have to look at the long game. We've ridden this core group for a long time with the Jets and had some good times. Just like the Bombers have ridden a core group for a long time. Now comes the pain. It always does. But some day, we will rise again.

You mean Walters actually doing his job? Let's hope so.

He said unforseen detour, not unfortunate detour.

As always, hopefully our scouting is good AND we play some young guys. For example, I like the upside and Potential of Woodby, J.Smith, Shay and the two DEs who played the last game.

Fans get numbed by theie team's continued poor performances. I can remember suffering through some very bad Bomber seasons & just sitting staring at the tv screen. Or in myseat at Winnipeg Stadium or the Arena. Also, I was a STH the first 3 seasons the Jets 1.0 were in the NHL. Not many wins those years. When the novelty of seeing teams like Chicago, Montreal, New York Rangers & Islanders, St. Louis, Boston & Detroit wore off, the hockey was brutal. I gave up my seat in the group I was with. I just stopped caring. Going winless in 30 games in 1980-81 did it for me.

Zach was awful in 2024 also.

Fortunately........

I corrected....180k this...185k next with garuanteed money...all hard money tho so that's his sms hit...

yikes

Sorry...180k for this...185k 2027...and some guaranteed... but all hard money botj...stupid...for a marginal at best player...depth/situational at best...

Is that what Kramdi got? That's insane. That would make him the 2nd highest paid d,b only behind Ford.

And 185k of hard money for the 9th best sam in league.. not to mention probably the 3rd best on our roster and thats being generous..solid cap management

When you think of it, a detour is a route you take when your first choice is blocked and still gets you to your destination.
