  1. I think so as well. I just wish dinosaurs like David Braley would sell his interest in the Lions & leave. Something tells me he has a lot to do with the rancor that has been going on for years between the CFL & it's PA. The CFL needs a new way of thinking from top to bottom.
  2. Hey TrueBlue4ever, since you insist on bringing up how I feel about Ambrosie (& I didn't) then I can retort to your comments. Anyone here who thinks he's done a good job through this whole process of getting a 2020 season in with the botched federal committee hearing asking for up to $130 million, all the missed deadlines & now complete silence by the guy have their heads in the sand. Players hate him. Media is mocking him. More & more fans are turning on him the longer this farce goes on. If & when this season is cancelled then watch the negative reaction unfold & the anger will be focused on him for a lack of leadership & openness.
  3. As far as I'm comcerned, the only thing you guys present as any kind of evidence is second & third hand information on Miller. None of you have actually worked for him to say honestly you know what he's like as a boss. So, it's all hearsay. Miller may own other businesses but he is a football guy first & foremost. It's his passion & what he understands best. He knows the world of pro football, the CFL & its limitations as a league. Looks to me like if he was as bad as some of you make him out to be that Walters & O'Shea would have left long ago yet here they are The Champs along with the scouts in the Football Ops dept. Until he actually does the job as Commissioner none of you have any idea what kind of a guy he'd be & how he'd treat people like the CFLPA.
  4. What bigger issue? What Miller does with his companies has nothing to do with how he runs the Bombers. Same with the Bombers. Do you know how many Team Presidents heve come & gone since their last one in 1990. Some have been Salt Of The Earth guys I'm sure & others have been asshats but they all lost. Miller just won the Grey Cup. Like others have siad, I don't care how he did it. We are the champions. So, there's no "bigger issue" here. More like "no one gives a **** issue".
  5. Employees come & go everyday. Especially if they're unhappy at their job. Doesn't take much for a boss to act like a **** to push someone out. When they leave it's always the boss's fault. Sounds like Miller is a hard ass & a perfectionist & maybe even a bit of a control freak but when it comes to the Bombers, in the seven years Miller, Walters & OS have never left so it could be he has to act differently when he deals with them.
  6. Thank you.
  7. What do you mean by Operations Manager? Depending upon department that could mean a lot of things.
  8. Hey, we've all had bosses that are tough. I was referring to the Bombers & football Ops. Have people in Ops left the Bombers because of Miller directly? I never heard of anyone.
  9. If there is a stupid politician there is Trump. If there is an evil politician it is DeSantis.
  10. Please provide the names of people who quit the Blue Bombers because of Miller.... Noeller? blue_gold84? BigBlue204? JCon? can you guys tell me? I mean, it's obvious I need to learn who they are.
  11. No wonder Leonard Nimoy hated Star Trek for about a decade as these were about the only acting parts he could get. He even wrote a book called "I Am Not Spock". When the franchise hit the cinemas & he started to get paid what he truly was worth then he changed his mind.
  12. Teams that finish last need help. Giving the pick to the Rangers doesn't help anyone.
  13. I'm not a mind reader. I have no idea what he means. He can put a laughing icon up after my comments but I don't care. If he wants to talk in circles or like he knows some kind of inside joke then he can have at 'er.
  14. Saturday morning cartoons. Do they still have that?
  15. I know of Miller's reputation as a hard ass. Thing is, if he was that hard to work for I believe that Walters & O'Shea would have left years ago. Especially that 2014-16 era where the team was struggling. Yet no one quit on Miller.
  16. We drove to Oakland from Calgary 10 years ago to a qb camp for my son. Wow, you do not want to get off the freeway in some areas. It looked like a war zone down there.
  17. You know, in my younger days I was a Somebody. People looked up in the sky & the sight of me flying around the city would put fear in the hearts of those who would do evil. Now that I'm old & retired, nobody cares anymore. I used to wake up every morning with a purpose. Now, I have no purpose. I can't fly anymore & it's become extremely hard to lift a building above my head because my shoulders ache. So, I sit around wondering what to do? What to do?
  18. That is a good one.
  19. LOL. I'm just joking with you...
  20. And here as well. being the resident expert here on everything because you say you are well read, surprised you missed this. https://cflpa.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/CFLPA-FAQ-02-22-2014.pdf
  21. I knew that. I just thought we might have had a bit of a chance in the bubble atmosphere of the NHL being the situation is so weird & the team had 4 months to heal their injuries until the first game back & then BOOM!! Key players gone & lights out. Unfortunate.
  22. Surprised no one called it cheap yet. People need to get a grip.
  23. I absolutely love this! Such a humble man. And so deserving having called games for over 40 years. We can argue here for days as to who the face of the Blue Bombers is. But we damned well know for sure who the voice of the Bombers is. Congratulations, Bob.
  24. Yes, you guys are argiung & complaining over a championship ring that our team won. The first championship in 29 years. It's comical.
