If all the Bombers have is a run game with little threat of passes, they are doomed. The past few games have shown conclusively that a one-trick offence can be effectively stopped. Variety is not only the spice of life, it is also the key to winning games.

I think Mike Kelly is the measuring stick on how to judge Bomber executives/management/staff/coaches/players in how they deal with the media and fans.
So far so good.

I'll never understand the entitlement of "WE DESERVE TO KNOW EVERYTHING!" .....No. If keeping things close to the vest is the best course of action, then I trust them to do what's right. If we don't need to know, we don't need to know. 

Anyone know what Gray's injury is? To me he's an upgrade at either guard position. 
Also - broken record time - I've seen enough of Lucky. Not a CFL caliber receiver. He's a returner, period. And the big gadget plays he broke seems like a million years ago. I'd play Bailey and sit Lucky. Not sure who has the man crush on Lucky - Lapo or O'Shea. 

a lot of people thought Buck was done before he even signed here... the thought was always that he was 1 hit away from being finished, and we managed to get a few more seasons out of him (with some injury stints).  But if we can get a few games out of Collaros, I agree that moving down 2 rounds in the draft to bring in a veteran when he's really the only option that seemed to be available, isn't that bad of a move!   

I don't even know that Collaros would be eligible for insurance

I guess I'll continue my planning of the parade!   The saviour is on his way!  

Red Green is in town tonight.... no one better to "tape him up"

I would imagine there’s less than a 1% chance he gets re-signed so I’m not particularly concerned about the potential loss of a first. 

In a complete spin of irony... the trade was actually Collaros FOR the Power 97 balls!  Home Depot is also all out of bubble wrap after Khari Jones & Dave Dickenson made some online purchases!

Speechless.  But what a story it would be if we played the Riders in the playoffs, and he led us to victory!   Would be worth a popcorn stage dive for sure!

People around here never change. 
Seems like the expectations were that we acquire a QB that doesn’t exist.
We got the best QB we possibly could have at a very tolerable price. Literally no harm done by doing this at all. 

This is a gamble I can get behind. We had to. Nichols is not coming back, and Streveler is not a CFL Qb. You cant just throw away a whole season when you can gamble on ZC. Tape him up, give him extra padding in his helmet ,and pray to christ he can do something on offence. People jumping in with their negativity need to pipe down.

Didn't get him for free. It's also going to be really windy on Saturday, so he may get hurt standing on the sidelines. Maybe they can borrow one of the balls from the Power97 race? 

Maybe Burke at DC, but certainly not Head Coach.  He was a good co-ordinator, but as soon as the whole thing was dumped on him, he really struggled.

probably a layover in TO??  Can you stop off and see Pinball and work out a deal for MBT & Walker??

....or at least convince him that Lapo is THE hot commodity for next HC......

If O'Shea wants to go to Toronto then do whatever it takes to bring Khari home.

what harm is there going to be in bringing in a veteran at this point?  We have the cap space, they are 1-4 in their last 5 and still have a chance to host a playoff game.  If you're fine just giving up on the season, well fine, that's you... I think they need to at least try and do something.

future be damned... they need to win now and think about the next few games in front of them.  Plenty of time to worry about next season in the offseason.   They need experience NOW.

He doesn't deserve the Ring of Honour, if that's what you're asking.
