Schiefs Is playing on a different level. It will be a travesty if he does not make the Olympic team.

Brady tried to reset the market for RB's last year and it only worked out for him. It did not affect the other salaries. The top RB in the league last year (Mills) made a whopping $123,450 last year - half of what Brady did. Butler (3rd overall for RB's) made slightly less at $120k. You absolutely can replace his production for a much lower price. The hit for the Bombers would be off the field - everyone loves Brady (myself included) and it would suck to see him leave.

Scheif scores twice

It probably is. But it'll set the market for running backs like Diedrick Mills. & James Butler as well. We lose Brady what's the proability we replace him with a running back that's even close to what Oliveira does for us??? That's the problem. Replacing him. Not paying him. Again, paying him isn't the problem. It's replacing him.

He was already the highest paid RB by a wide margin (240k vs 160kish for Ouellette) so it's not like we were being cheapskates with him. Bumping him up another 60k is crazy.

I'm a huge fan of Brady but 300,000 per year seems like too much at first glance.

no shut out for you Dallas

If that's the market, so be it. I believe even our tone deaf, can't read the room, sits on his ass in free agency of a GM in Kyle Walters knows he has to sign Brady. To make up for it get rid of some deadwood on the roster. Especially one entitled vet who thinks he has a job for life, in particular. We're all going.... WTH??? Almost every position costs more, now. QB, receiver OL... About the only position you can still sign cheap vets is defensive back. . That'll probably be changing as well.

But the GM is

Woof to 300k per year on a RB.... Jesus.

this team has 99 problems and the coach ain't one

That penalty was total bullshit. Then when we’re about to kill it off, Samberg has his stick held…. No call…. In our net. We’re not a good team right now, but we’re also not getting anything breaks.

You know I was ready to post that the first period aside from that cluster. F*** first a minute was pretty good and the Jets dominated play just not on the score sheet. Then a b******* penalty at the end of the first leads to a power play goal for Dallas at the beginning of the 2nd. Unfortunately, I think this is the team we're stuck with all year. We'll be lucky to even be an 8th seed. And as I type this, there's the third goal against.

Unless it's a contract heavily loaded with marketing money so it doesn't affect the cap - hard pass for me at that price point.

Thr off-season changes looked hopeful on paper, apart from Fly leaving for a massive pay raise,but it hasn't turned out that way at all. I think Nyquist is in tonight. No, he is not.

Take this for whats its worth, a friend of mine knows a person very close to Oliveira and he was told today that the Bombers are close to signing Brady to a 3 year 900K contract. Story is if the Bombers wont/dont, then the Argos will.

For f***** sake. 40 seconds in and they get scored on. The season was lost in the off season. We made no major upgrades anywhere. They gambled with JT and it hasn't paid off. Nyquist isn't even playing now. This team is in all sorts of problems.

And here we go again.

I think Arniel is down to desperate measures. Everything he (and other coaches before him) has not worked and unless something improves and soon, the playoffs will disappear over the horizon.

I loved Loveys ,but as i understand it ,the owner passed on?? Big Smoak moving in would be phenomenal.

When it first opened it was really good. Decent sized portions for both the adult and kids meals and everything was above average. The last two times we went the service was extremely slow to a point where I had to find the server to see if they had forgotten our order. The meat was dried out and the portions were extremely frugal. My adult meal was smaller then what they used to serve as kids meals.

Should of added that the team needs to really upgrade the O line, if ZC isn't upright it won't really matter who the receivers are.

I understand the desire to shuffle, but I don’t understand those moves. Pearson on the 2nd? Vilardi on the 3rd? Namestnikov still on the 2nd? He is overvalued IMO. At the very least, switch Pearson and Vilardi. Pearson is not a 2nd liner and Vilardi is not a checker.

That third line is not going to win ‘fastest skating line by NHL standards’ award.

What's to lose?
