There is a lot of speculation and opinion around here trying to present itself and fact and insider knowledge. Some of it is closer to the truth than others, but at the end not a single one of us knows much about what goes on behind closed doors at PAS. Every team, management group etc has different dynamics/power structures that none of us are privy too. It's why we have the endless back and forth of who is in charge MOS or KW. None of us with the exception of the scouts, Wadzilla and the coaching staff know the answer to that. Every team is different. Every management group is different, so those that may have past experience with a different group may assume the same model is in place with this one....and it could be vastly different. That's coming from someone with years of corporate and then private business ownership experience to glean from.

Yeah he kinda sucked his way off too JJ brings experience...and also returned kicks in college and averaged i believe a shade over 24 yards a kick...so is already miles ahead If Vaval grabs an actual roster spot...or we allow our Canadian LB's to assume a bigger role...he could technically be a quite solid DA for us...backup returner..change of pace back..plus he can catch

Yeah...goes both ways too...with even more out in space takes of certainty with zero potential inside knowledge..minimal football I.Q...or actual knowledge of the inner workings and how organizations generally do things is beyond amazing...just saying

It's the degree of certainty with which people in this board speak, in regards to things that may or may not have happened... That amazes me day in and day out.

Yes, he failed to seize the opportunity. Probably why we brought in JJ.

I recall Cooley the imp rb was on the roster but eventually fumbled his way off the team.

Well that is certainly one take on it. I don't believe it is at all factual, so I will agree to disagree.

Given how O'Shea hung onto players that were close to useless to the detriment of the team, the message had to be that players could play very poorly and still keep their jobs so long as they kissed up. Word gets around.

McManis definitely an improvement BUT I don't think it makes up for the downgrade in other areas in the hammer.....AND I don't care how much muscle cream BoLevi uses....I think this is the year his arm falls off and sitting on the panel will start looking awfully good

Ok captain obvious duh.

Riders sign Josh Woods LBer formerly of BC Lions. Big downgrade there.

Ted Goveia backed up the Brinks truck last year (mostly for our guys lol) and this is what happens the next year after a lot of times. Wynton is a vast improvement for them though. Gonna be tough sledding for BLM's muscle cream bill this year tho.

Hope they go 0-18

Love it!!!

Nice add for Hamilton but they've lost 3 olineman, two quality wr and their starting rb. Behind the 8 ball right now.

I highly doubt the Bombers would do this... but I would drop Jones and Wilson in a heartbeat if we had a chance to sign McManis... I'd start McManis at MLB and Ayers at WIL... the money would be close to even that way and the production would probably be better

We already saw it last year. When BO went down we went with Peterson initially but the change was made to IMP RB shortly after.

McManis is a guy I would make room for. That being said, it's an SMS world so the numbers have to work. That being said, I would be very surprised if we don't hear of a McManis signing today. I find it hard to believe that the Argos would let him ride into FA early unless he had a number from another team that they just can't match. Would like to see us kick the tires on McEwen, and Shane Ray see if we could make either of them fit.

He's one of those guys every team in the league should consider. It's like when we basically got Biggie by default after his NFL stint. Everyone else didn't have money or a spot, so we offered a princely deal on a real up-and-comer team, but the competition for him was beyond light. That was a brutal mistake by the rest of the league, as he came back and was one of the very best defensive players for a couple of years. His versatility was a keystone to our D, just like BA going to S later on. Ever team should kick the tires on him.

Lmao...I was here 15 years ago. Wasn't road kill then, won't be now. I did no backtracking on this issue whatsoever, you tried to put intent that was not there into my post as a way to defend a piece of turf no one cares about. I criticized an aspect of his coaching, you took that to mean I hated him and was calling him a bad coach. Hate? Maybe, as is the case with anyone on the Rider sidelines, but at no point did I ever state he was a poor coach just that he has a big flaw. Same way I can state that MOS has a big flaw but believe he is a good coach. So, I'm not really the one digging my heels in here, you are. Funny thing is history has shown me to be correct in that regard. Worse yet, we are fighting over the defence of Corey Mace's honor. Double ew.

sure there is room....you get rid of lesser players...and older ones with no upside...hello Jones and Kyrie

Only one lead singer left... Just Danny Hutton... he's in his 80's & I have no idea if he still tours. Negron lived the life of a famous rock singer with all of its excesses. The money, the women, the booze & the drugs. . He became a drug addict & the other band members kicked him out. He never reconciled even though the obit says he met with Hutton in the last year. However, I read a story once where Negron despised Hutton so much blaming him for being the band member who convinced the others to kick him out. One time, he chased Hutton down the street in LA wanting to beat him up when he happened to see Hutton one day out & about. It's a wonder Negron lived as long as he did.
