  1. If we don't start playing much better, these sellouts are going to come to an end. A lot on the line for the Bombers.
  2. He's the Head Coach. Absolutely he has last say.
  3. Let's hope Younger keeps it up & isn't overruled by Osh.
  4. Become President & GM? That would be a monumental task. I think a new title would be needed for Wade. Something like, Team President & Director of Football Operations. I think if Walters did leave that the job of GM would fall to Danny McManus. If not living here in the off season is part of the arrangement. Would that even work? Twelve seasons with no change at GM & Head Coach is an eternity in pro sports. I think something has to give.
  5. I went thru that same injury many years ago & it truly is life altering as the knee joint never, ever fully recovers. It's misery years later when the knee eventually stops functioning. Schoen will keep tweaking it from time to time on the field causing him to miss an unknown amount of games in the future. I was told by someone here recently that today's surgical procedures are so much better than they were when I got injured. True but you can't change how severely that injury damages the joint. Medical science can't change that outcome, unfortuntely. Schoen's injury took place a year ago. By now, arthritis is starting to set in even with better surgical techniques & rehab.
  6. Walter's the guy who put us in this position at qb & receiver & you expect him to fix it?? Our GM is way past his expiry date. He used to be so sharp & had it together. Now? He's like a 2L milk jug that went sour in the fridge. Wow, is this team ever .....
  7. We could be in the qb wilderness for years like Edmonton because of the way Walters & Osh messed up the qb position.
  8. We can't play Streveler if Zach is making nearly $600,000 a year & Streveler $180,000. Bonus for us (ho boy!) is next year Zach has guaranted money- 50%, so $250-$300,000. No team will pick up his contract for that. Lots of strange decisions were made by Walters this past off season but this is a crippler financially.
  9. We're lucky to have BC & Edmonton in our division.
  10. If both aren't under contract, how do you sell the fanbase on new deals. if they're 6-12?
  11. Interim sure but there's no way Walters fires Osh with no new contract himself. Hey Noeller, you want to lose some sleep? If the losses continue both Head Coach & GM don't have new contracts. Both get fired at the end of the season. Or one or both walk. Have a good sleep.
  12. It's a young coach league now. Age & experience are a negative, it seems. Patterson will be 64 in December. if anything, he would be a transition head coach if they failed to land the guy they really wanted.
  13. Actually Bryant could be back next game for all we know so going up tempo with our older veterans makes no sense. Even with just two guys sucking wind, that leaves them tired & missing blocks in the 3rd & 4th quarter.
  14. Our OL are mostly guys in their 30's. Neufeld 36, Bryant 40. Kolo 32. How long do you think they'd last?
  15. I think Schoens already cooked. That knee injury was serious & he reinjured it. That's a setback. I have never seen a receiver get so beat up by his cover guys when he was relatively healthy. He was a human pinietta out there.Schoen will just go back playing the same style & get hurt again missing even more time.
  16. If it was so easy, why hasn't he fixed things earlier? Not only are we playing like it's 2014, our Head Coach is reverting back to his old ways of 2014.
  17. If Osh gets fired, all Walters will do is probably promote Jordan Younger to Head Coach anyway. we need a thorough house cleaning at the top.
  18. Right, In the Old West the reaction would be called Circling The Wagons. If we can tire them out then we can do it to ourselves as well.
  19. That kind of decision making has been common the past few years & really, if things don't improve by September then heads should roll at the end of the season. Walters hasn't signed a new deal & he shouldn't be renewed. A new GM would decide if Osh kept his job.
  20. Hogan said he made a mistake & regretted what he said. We give so many people second chances but yet the mob won't do it for him. If he said he was sorry then why can't people forgive? People make mistakes & a celebrity like Hogan should have known better. If Terry Bollea was sincere about being sorry for his comments & learned a lesson from his comments then I think that would be a good thing. I find a lot of people on social media are selective when it comes to forgiveness.
  21. I could feel this coming this past off season when our GM did virtually nothing. Walters let star players go. He didn't sign even one impact free agent in a year we were hosting a Grey Cup. These wounds are self inflicted. We did it to ourselves. This is probably Yera 2 or 3 of the exodus of star players elsewhere & no replacement signed. I just can't see it getting any better before it gets worse. We know from past experience that this probably won't happen.
  22. It's not going to stop.
  23. That's all you need to know about our receiving corps. Collaros likes to throw the deep ball & stretch out the field. But to whom? Wheatfall has simply disappeared as a deep threat. There's really no one else to catch the ball besides Demski who can do damage deep but he can't do it alone. I can certainly understand why Collaros has struggled. This is what makes me angry as a fan. Most of the damage to the team has been self inflicted by management. A puzzling off season of departures offensively & defensively & no replacements signed.
  24. I'm a Star Trek fan. I like it better than Star Wars. I used to get excited about a ne ST series coming. But 8 episode seasons, season long arches for storylines, waiting up to 2 years for the next season, cancellation of Strange New Worlds which was the only episodic ST series because of a failed merger between Paramount Studios & Skydance Entertainment before th series really had a chance to get going as a series has really caused me to go meh over Starfleet Academy. I may not even watch it. Why do we need a new series set in the 31st Century when it could be in the 23rd just as easily?
  25. Yeah, I just got tired of hearing the insults especially when we're playing so poorly. The backup being unprepared is on the coaching staff & not on Adams. He's playing hard trying to win.
