I figued about 250k Yr one...with some playtime extra's as a possibility.....So good on him....he's put in the time and work, now lets see if it can be realized in a whole new situation....I think may be a shaky first yr tho....guess we will see

I am depressed now since we missed out on Fine. Curse you, O'Day.

Way more money than I was expecting. Good for Dru. Then again... "Brown will earn $290,000 in hard money in 2024" isn't $300K+ 

Guess who's going to latch on hard to the 290 base for 2024...

Spot on, as usual. 
Not too far off. 

Someone is angry.....someone thought they did ok.

I can’t stand the term “reset the market”. It’s a capped market, all that does is take away from another area (or from another angle, one’s own teammates) 
I’d rather see a balanced roster than a reset market star alongside a bunch of jobbers. 
We lived through that in the 90s and 2000’s, paying 2-3 skill players and nobody else. 

I hope he hasn't offered much more. Maybe a bit more, but anything more than 170k and his price exceeds his worth imo.
I just hate when a player tries to pressure the team through the media. Never liked it. It's a bad look and really doesn't do much for them in the end.

If Dalton wants to “reset the market” he can leave too. 
 
 

I 100% support players getting all they can - you notice no one is saying anything negative about Dalton.
But trying to do any negotiating in the media never works out well for the player. He made a bit of a mistake there, I think. 

😁

Yup, that's what got me into the "pfft, he can walk " camp.
Shades of this chucklefuck.

And yeah, just to touch on something earlier - the people who are mad at Brady are nuts.
Do you guys go to your jobs and work for less money voluntarily? Of course the guy wants to maximize his earnings. Just like literally the entire world. Get over it.

Schoen has not posted a Kane like money tweet...and this is a passing league. Add to it that we can replace BO with a cheaper option with a combo couple of American Rbs that we can swap in and out to keep opposing defenses guessing like Calgary does with Carey and Logan and we can be a better offensive team. Replacing Schoen would be a hell of alot harder. It's what makes the Bombers better or at least as good that matters.

😁

The thing people need to remember about a Canadian running back is that they are so few and far between that committing to one as a ratio breaker means you also have to invest the capital in a capable backup as well.
Johnny Augustine made 90k last year, probably close to the going rate unless you find a good rookie. Is there a team that is going to invest 300k into a RB1/2? If there is, I hope it’s not us.
(obviously you could flip your ratio or dress more than the required amount of Canadians but there’s a cost to that as well)

I love the eye rolling emoji. Definitely not going to stop using it.
😂

My dad (who we lost last year) always said "That's the thing about Father Time, he is undefeated."
...and also, those aren't grey hairs in my beard... they're f*****g blond, ok??

Seems I'm the butt of the jokes here by a couple of real losers.... ERRRRRR...... posters because of my age but so be it, I guess. What else is new, anyway???
I've read the posts here & the howls of laughter aimed at me. Made by the same people who always seem to claim that racism, bigotry & discrimination are evil & must be stamped out once & for all.  However, when it comes to ageism well, that's okay. It's always Open Season on me for that. So then, the word that jumps out at me for some of you (not all) is hypocrite.
Yes, they say, Let's minimize someone's comments (like mine) when we disagree with them by saying their opinion is unimportant because we think they're too old & should get lost. Their opinions don't count as much as others because of their advanced age. Meanwhile, they'll jump on the next thread defending the rights of free speech passionately. Is it because they actually feel that way or perhaps just want to fit in here & not stick out themselves?? Just be part of the crowd. I wonder sometimes. 
Some of us have been members together for a couple of decades. Here & at the old Our Bomber site. If we have then we've known each other for 20 years. Unless you were 16 when you started then some of you are pushing 45-50 years of age or older now. You're already looked upon as old & unimportant from a twenty something's perspective. You just haven't experienced it yet but it's coming. 
You cling to your last vestages of youth while your belly starts expanding, you have more than one chin, your belt around your waist needs loosening, your pants ride higher & the grey hair is springing more visibly everyday. Not only on what's left of your receding hairline but on your face as well. Some of you who thought you were James Bond in the bedroom just a few short years ago now need a little blue pill to perform & "be a man" when it comes to satisfying your lover, wife or girlfriend.  
So, if you've been around here as long as I have or longer then you're no spring chicken either. From the posts I used to read on the political threads that were thankfully discontinued it's pretty clear that some of you laughing at me learned to yell at clouds at an early age.
I just know that time stops for no one. As some of you will find out sooner than you think. The harsh reality is some of you "youngsters" won't make it to my age as cancers. other sicknesses, afflictions & accidents might pick you off prematurely. We don't know when our number will be called & our time is up.
Getting old is really a privelidge. It's not a right as some of us could die tomorrow. From a deathbed perspective, the 38 year old about to die would probably wish he or she could live to be 68. 
Just know that mocking me about my age isn't going to change my mind about how I see things when it comes to the Blue Bombers, Jets, the world of sports or just the world in general. I won't be run off by a few intellectual pipsqueaks that we have here who seem to have it in for me. One thing is certain. You'll always know my opinion & where I stand. There'll be no beige for me. 
I've always had a strong opinion. I can be stubborn. I've taken as good as I've got over the years. Sometimes it was deserved & sometimes not. The truth is you'll always know where I stand on any subject that I comment on.
I'm not the same person I was 20 years ago. I think I've mellowed & actually will try to discuss any subject with anyone now without being insulting unless I'm insulted first. Twenty years ago, I was more impatient & willing to argue my point aggressively & I wasn't very nice at times. I have my regrets for being a prick at times back then. I feel I'm no longer like that. I try to show respect & listen to the other POV. 
Now, for all you hypocrites out there & you know who you are... 
Have a nice day!!!!!
 
The greatest fools are the ones 
that hold fast to facts when truth is gone.
Still the need to be right 
consumes the workings of sound minds.
No longer do the crowds align
those masses forced to harmonize.
The end result is fractured thought
when sanity is subtly bought.
By dogma's bent in bubbles realm
the saddest jokers are at the helm.
With agendas forlorn from hope
when madness is more than a trope.
Instead, reality bends it's knee
with the idiots flocking to the decrees.
Truth is absent at the end
when verity is then condemned. 

Y'all forget how that cartoon ends?

They should change the uniforms to pink to go along with the Princess tag!
 
*I'll show myself out*
 

I'm 3 years and a ******* cardigan away from this. 

Like SNL and the 5 timers club lol...

Why is it that with some posters, when I read their diatribes it comes through in Abe Simpson's voice?
