600k for Zach is too much. He’s had a good career and earned his fair share. I mean you only take what is offered but I would have liked to see us have more flexible for salary at the quarterback position. We’re still paying him like he’s 2022 Zach and not 2026. Not the end of the world but I would have liked to see a deal similar to what Harris is making.

The dumb move was to sign him to a two year extension before the season had even begun. You could see the decline coming and it got worse this season. Even if sticking with him, they could have easily got him for a lot less if they waited until the end of the season to offer an extension, especially since they refuse to renegotiate contacts. Bombers have a history of tying themselves to extensions for QBs on their way down. They would have also had the time to see if Wilson or a prospect from another team may have been an option at the end of the season and could have begun a transition if that opportunity presented itself.

The last two years, and virtually every playoff game here at that. But we are stuck in a bad spot. We can't get someone who is top-tier at that or any other pay. Zach could've taken a reduced deal, though. If he cut his salary by 1/3, we could sign an elite level talent and a position of need.

(I found this on social media today. Back when having a professional hockey team was actually fun. Fourty eight years ago today). From December 29, 1977 to January 1, 1978, a game between the Soviet National Team and the Winnipeg Jets called the World's Greatest Ice Hockey Game was held at the Yoyogi Stadium in Tokyo. This is the cover of the program. The game featured the Soviet National Team's Olympic team members, Vladistav Trejak (GK), Vloajmr Petrov (FW), Valery Kharlamov (FW), Boris Mikhaylov (FW), Valery Vasilyeu (DF), and later enter the NHL Nikolai　Makarov, who later joined the NHL. The Winnipeg Jets are led by Bobby Hull andAnders Hedberg, Joe Daley, and others. The significance of this game was to show that there is a major hockey league other than the NHL and that the WHA is an international league with European players in addition to Canadian players. The fact that a single team played a good game against the Soviet National Team also demonstrated the high level of the league. It was also significant that stationery and other items with WHA character designs were sold in Japan.

yikes

I’m actually proud of myself…. I managed not to completely lose my mind. And if there was a game for that to happen, last night was it.

Zach was awful in 2024 also.

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

Here we go!

They were winless in 30 consecutive games...which is still an NHL record in November, December & January. They went 23 losses & 7 ties. It got so bad that Sports Illustrated sent a writer to follow the team as they were approaching the old NHL record. SI called the team the Loserpeg Jets. But we had the last laugh drafting Dale Hawerchuk.

Getting these vibes.

Comrie.is beyond useless. Get rid of him and Nyquist, Nino, Koepke. Time to tank. Bring up Milic, Yaeger, Lambert and Chipper. What a ******* joke this team is. How big is the hole? Will Chevy's head fit in it?

There is no way to sugar coat it..we have become a bad team..ethier we don't score enough or we let too many in. How could this team fall so far so fast?

Shame that Rob Reiner did not merit a photo.

Schenn is playing too much. Playing him in back to back games seems like a bad idea. Namestnikov back at 2C because they haven’t tried that yet…. Oh wait, he’s been there most of the season and has 8 points. Ugh. Can we somehow pull out a win tonight? Losing to the Leafs is a special kind of infuriating.

That tee shirt was from the Eastern Division Semi Final game played at Winnipeg Stadium on November 13, 1988. The Bombers won 35-28. Attendance was an embarrassment & a shock as crowds at Winnipeg Stadium in 1988 were fairly consistent all season long around 24,000. Hence, the idea for a tee shirt commemorating that game with the attendance on the front. The Bombers got on a roll behind qb Sean Salisbury in the playoffs. They took care of Hamilton at home & then beat the Argos 27-11 a week later in the Eastern Final at CNE Stadium on November 20th. Then they wrapped up the Trifecta on November 27th by defeating the heavily favoured BC Lions by a score of 22-21. in the Grey Cup at Lansdowne Park which featured DT Michael Gray deflection of a Matt Dunigan pass to an open receiver in the end zone. Not only did he deflect the pass up into the air but he caught it on the way down at the goalline to preserve the Bomber win & the Grey Cup Championship. I'll never forget that play. The story goes that the Bombers supposedly sold over 50,000 of those tee shirts. I don't know if that was true or not. There were fans that bought that tee shirt who never attended the game while claiming they did just to join the Grey Cup bandwagon. I can't confirm that number to be true or not but a lot of people did buy that tee shirt. It seemed everyone was wearing one & it was a hot ticket item for Christmas that year. I was there along with my wife as we were STH's in Sec V, row 29 & seats 12 & 13 at the old barn on Maroons Road. I never got a tee shirt, though. Michael Gray: Grey Cup hero.

At minimum, we should be tied with Edmonton. At most we should be second with 15. I won't get into why we're not. But hey, our coach is a nice guy. Everybody says it.

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

Walters admitted it. The Bombers don't renegotiate paycuts with players under contract. So, it's not up to Collaros to ask for less. It's up to Walters. Yet, somehow it's Zach's problem when it's not. Now, he's become an over hill the hill selfish player according to 90% of you here. He's not. Walters put us in this situation giving Zach an extension. And Walters got a new 3 year deal himself. Blame Walters Not Collaros.

How do.you.blow.a 4-1 lead!!!!!

600 k for a guy who played like the 8th best QB in the league last year....

Just got the news that one of our friend's daughter has Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Just 38 years old with a husband & young son who is under 2 who will grow up never knowing his Mother. So, not a Happy New Year. Very sad. Our foundation has been rocked today.
