I got a job transfer to Calgary in 1990. Let me tell you that it was one of the most stressful things our family ever went thru. It took months to get settled plus my wife was pregnant & due in three months.

That's not the same thing. He still has a job and TC is still several months away.

That name cracks me up everytime. Kola in our dialect means something like 'just' or 'merely'

Kola, Logan and Gauthier are good choices. Corcoran is likely going into year 2 of a rookie deal so they keep him, although I hope he's a 2026 camp cut.

Guys I'd not re-sign. Stephan Logan, Chase Artoepus, Cody Case, Shayne Gauthier, Gavin Cobb, Joey Corcoran & Chris "Koaaala" Kolankowski.

How many of these underperforming pets of O'Shea return will determine the fate of the 2026 Bombers, O'Shea and Walters.

Like being fired at Xmas by your boss. It just isn't done. Till the first or 2nd week of january. Let players, like employees have Xmas with their families.

Yeah, there's a few veterans getting long in the tooth which means they're expensive & don't contribute like they used to who should go.

Morgan was almost certainly home with his loved ones, so the disruption would be minimal, if at all. Yes, we all make mistakes, but if someone repeats the same mistakes over a long period in defiance of negative consequences for self or others, it is a core personality facet and unlikely to change.

Well if it means clipping some returnee's and or not resigning some currently unsigned guys from last yr..so be it...

I didn’t read the article. Is Chevy fed up as well? If so what’s he going to do about it other than say it’s within them to correct this? How long does he wait to see if they correct this before making changes or does he remain status quo and trot out his previous accomplishments? How high is his expectations at this point of the current season?

Another CFL great said some bad things about Winnipeg when he was traded to the Argos from the Bombers. D i c k Thornton was angry that he never got a chance to compete for the starting qb position with Ken Ploen (as he thought he was much better) & was an All Canadian Safety with the Bombers. He once paid a bunch of kids to carry signs around Winnipeg Stadium during a game saying, "We Want Thornton!" His blow ups on the practice field & Coaches office with Bud Grant were well known. Grant grew tired of the guy's antics & traded him to the Argos who were the worst team in the CFL at the time to teach him a lesson during the 1966 season. Thornton said to the Winnipeg media when he left, "The best thing about Winnipeg are the roads leading out of it." Interestingly enough, after Grant left Winnipeg at the end of 1966, he contacted Thornton & offered him a SS position on the MInnesota Vikings. The team he took over from Norm Van Brocklin. No offer to try to unseat Joe Kapp was forthcoming from Grant. Thornton declined & stayed with the Argos feeling his chances to make more $$ in the CFL was better than the Vikings as he was established. Thornton, I believe, never had another thing more to do with the Blue Bombers even as an Alumni.

Looks good, expensive as heck most likely but good.

Hutchins...Hardy..Broxton..McManus...get er done...and we be rolling...if it fits toss in Hicks too That be my gameplan

True North has a ton of real estate investment with True North Square and their project to renovate Portage Place. They also own the Alt Hotel too (I believe). The Jets are just part of the portfolio and they are likely better positioned than the Jets 1.0 ever were.

As far as Kelly goes....I think people in general can forgive someone when they make mistakes....however when someone acts arrogant while making those mistakes....welll it paints that individual with a different brush.....one of being not only arrogant but ignorant.....I hope Kelly has changed his ways....He sure blew it here and a lot of Bomber fans have looong memories....myself being one of them...As far as Brock goes and his insulting comment about the Peg, when he said....'well you can only go to the zoo so many times' hurt a lot of fans.....There's more to the city than what he was intimating and it sure was a bull$hit comment...Anyway...onward and upward as they say ....we all move on

The headline in today’s Friesen column in the Sun was “We’re fed up”. Jets fans concur after 15 seasons.

he’s a solid pick up for what is likely two guys who don’t make edmonton next year. I really don’t get how teams set value for draft picks in the cfl in relation to starters. I get edmonton is trying to get as many lotto tickets as possible in hopes of fixing their ni depth, and ott is going to try any thing to be good this year. I just don’t get timing and value.

should certainly take a long look at both if they hit fa.

Again for all the Jake hater accusers, we love what JT has brought to this club, players and coaches love him, but it's also selfish with struggles of self awareness on the part of JT and MOS to even remotely think that trotting out JT puts us in the best position for team success. Player over team, not good.

Leave it to Hervey to trade someone right over Xmas disrupting his family. Couldn't wait till after New Years.

Imagine had Osh brought that deadweight back??

A team of chumps not champs and here we are 😢
