  1. Past hour
  2. I'd like to know who works under Maccioccia as Asst GM. That organization is outstanding. They've found some great talent the past 3 seasons. Whoever that is, would be worth an interview.
  3. Literally just signed a contract extension like two weeks ago. Not going anywhere for a long time.
  4. Apparently hes considering retirement
  5. We have 3 good young OL now in Wallace, Vanterpool & Randolph signed. I like those 3 pieces a lot. Now with free agency maybe we can pick up a starting Center or LT. We have Neufeld & Stan as well who probably won't go far away. They can change positions & still we'd be okay.
  6. Macciocia. Football poobah & czar.
  7. Offer Jason Maas head coach/oc/gm after the cup
  8. I dunno... Not saying what's right or wrong but the general vibe so far at the various Grey Cup Week parties (we've been wandering room to room) is that people really want Osh to stay. I don't think the hate has trickled down from the ravenous mob yet. It might get there yet, but it's not there as of now from what I can tell...
  9. Why would Faj not be the starting QB in Edm next year? I ******* hate the guy, but they were a more than competent team with him in charge.
  10. Today
  11. imo, Ford time in edmonton is done. spin the wheel of back up qbs. Maybe faj stays to back up in edm, though i think both parties would rather split up. Yep. I don’t think you can even keep paying him 240k.
  12. Yesterday
  13. Whoops, meant Bud. Not Mike. Bud was Brock's first CFL Head Coach. He was a miserable sumbitch as Bomber HC. Feuded with the media & in particular Jack Matheson. The fans used to get on Bud something fierce with the playcalling. Sound familiar? But his son Mike was polar opposite. Loved by everyone. Gonna change that name. Thanks, Booch,
  14. Bud...not mike...how dare you slander Mike u old bugger! 😆
  15. Great coach. He resurrected Dieter Brock's career which was on the rocks under Bud Riley. Riley made him a sprint out passer. left & right. See just half the field, do a couple of reads & throw on the run.... Jauch took the time needed to teach Brock to read the whole field, go thru all his reads & get rid of the ball with his lightning release & rocket for an arm. Built an outstanding OL around Brock to give him time to throw. The rest is history.
  16. If he'd come...be excellent choice...if he didnt get poached early he'd have had multiple cups..and prob coached well into the 10 yr range Guy was an excellent manager of a team..dealing with players..and on top of it all crazy smart positional coach/coordinator Even when he was HC at that time we only had minimal coaches so was heavily involved as DC along with HC Prior to that top notch DB coach...but dare to dream Any g.m dictating roster during season or arbitrarily cutting guys over the coach is Glieberman territory and dysfunction at its highest degree Once camp opens...its all HC on who stays...who goes...who plays..and how much...period...end...no deviation... We will continue the slide...and some players we don't want to leave.. Will leave and several that should have been gone for a few seasons now...will be back...basically
  17. Maybe that's one of his "options" If he to get a big raise then better be elsewhere...he already in Bang for buck range where he hampers lineup elsewhere Don't get me wrong hes a great player and the heart of the team...but also at a position where if u know how to scout can get same production at a third of the cost. Beat me to it...if he wants more...we are a better team moving on...sentiment and all aside...be crippling...especially if we still paying ZC
  18. Atomic just confirmed they're staying! Trinity forever!!!
  19. $$ changes a lot of things He literally can't make any more than he already is. I absolutely want him in B&G for the rest of his career, but if they're giving him a big raise, they're a losing team next season.
  20. losing Brady would be a disaster on many levels, including attendance . He deserves a big raise, and an OC that realizes his abilities.
  21. I think Ford's career as a CFL starter at qb is over. He better not come here.
  22. Zach working the cup is odd as he said he won’t be watching the game from the stadium.
  23. I'd like to tell you what I'd fit him in.
  24. You're probably too young to remember or even experienced but the final Bud Grant year in 1966, I believe they were 10-6 or 9-7 & finished second losing to the Riders in the Western Best of 3 series 2-0. Grant left for Minnesota in 1967. Grant did a minor retooling like you suggest after finishing 3-12-1 in 63 & 1-15 in 1964. They went 11-5 in 65 & got back to the GC to lose to Hamilton. The 1967, 68 & 69 seasons under Joe Zaleski were dismal. Hit rock bottom under Jim Spavital in 70 going 2-14, My point. To avoid walking off a cliff some of the vets Osh likes should have been gone 2 years ago & replaced. with younger & cheaper players. Had Bud Grant not relied on so many aging vets in the mid 60's the team would have been years ahead of where they ended up in 1970. If Osh does come back then nothing will change. He'll still be loyal to a fault to Thomas, Kolo & other vets getting long in the tooth. That is when I believe this team will step off a cliff. Look at how Wally Buono ran the Stamps & Lions. Never afraid to make the changes he saw fit. Letting veterans who could sgtill play but wanted top dollar go & replacing them with younger players who didn't cost as much. That philosophy made him the winningest coach in CFL history. Wally cut Allen Pitts after having a thousand yard season in 2000 for crying out loud. Who does that??? He replaced Pitts with rookie Marc Boerigter who was an impact receiver before heading soiuth to the NFL Chiefs. With Osh, would Bo even had got a chance?? What a ballsy move that was.
