I'm not a worn out fan. I just have absolutrly no confidence in Mike O'Shea being the Head Coach to pull a rabbit out of his hat to get this team into the playoffs. Now, the Bombers have 13 players on the 6 Game IL. We have no idea when some of these players are coming back because O'Shea says discussing injuries are off limits to media & fans. Thing is, how many of these players got hurt at the beginning of the season in the first 2 or 3 games because he let them play without practicing? Or let them sit out vast stretches of training camp or the entire camp itself because he felt that they needed to nursse their injuries along & besides... they're veterans & really don't need to practice. Like self inflicted gunshot wounds. Attitude here or on the team itself?

I've been to Florida as well. It's something to see them gators in the water when looking down on an overpass or cloverleaf. -

I don't believe that this team is capable of doing what you suggest. We won't split with BC. we could split with Sask but we've dominated that team over the past 5 years that I think the pendulum has swung in their direction & they'll dominate us. I can't see this team winning more than 2 or 3 games. This is snowballing out of control but Walters & O'Shea don't seem to be concerned. -

Lineup changes only happen if players get hurt. Sit on their hands & do nothing. -
Johnny Bower may have been in his 50's when he played for the Leafs & won their last Stanley Cup in 1967.

Desperation & begging. That's what it's come down to for Rourke. I don't get it... -

Season is ticking by & with it the playoffs. Now, Woli is injured & it's just another day at the office for the Bombers. No sense of urgency from our team. Next Man Up!! Even if they aren't good enough to play. -
I'd be surprised if they renovate. With the Olympic budget, they'll probably build a new one.

Lol!!! Like O'Shea will tell us, ha ha. Yeah, these contracts for Number 3 receivers are pretty complex. -
The one disadvantage is he's in his 60's.

How long does it take to sign Bailey??? The one player who could help us right away & it looks like the Bombers may not sign him. -
I forgot about Patterson. He played for Cal Murphy. He's seen a real HOF coach at work.

It doesn't work that way. No one is going to tell O'Shea he has to play or sit certain players. He has to do that himself. He either gets it or he doesn't. So, if he doesn't get it then he has to be fired. However, he does need to know that he doesn't have a job for life & that he better start making hard decisions or else.
-
My main concern is that being part of the Mike O'Shea coaching tree is that he'd do things exactly the same way as Mike O'Shea. I'd like to see a new direction taken. I worry that one bad year can become five years, then ten years & we're back to winning a Grey Cup every 25 years.
-
I wouldn't be too impressed as I used to think Pierce would be the heir apparent to Mike O'Shea. Now, I'm having second thoughts thinking that things wouldn't change much under him here. We need a complete change of direction with a new coach. Not someone doing the same things under a different name. I'm of the opinion Jordan Maksymic, the OC in BC would be a great choice for HC. Especially if the Lions win the Grey Cup.

I was laughing in the fourth quarter watching Tre Ford Show running & throwing all over the Ti Cat defense in garbage time. However, just shows you the tools that kid has & how stupid it was for Jarious Jackson to stick with MBT after halftime. I swear, some of these head coaches can't see the forest for the trees even if a tree was one foot in front of them. That's Jarious Jackson. How much of a dumbass does Jackson have to be to stick with MBT after such a dismal season that he's having? I never thought much of him as a qb. I don't think much of him as a Head Coach. The team is 0-7. Give the fans what they want. They haven't had a decent season since 2017. Listen to the fans. Play Ford.

Nah, it seems to annoy just ONE person in particular. At least he keeps telling you that. You're free to say whatever you want as you're not breaking any rules. -

As Tracker said, kicking isn't the problem. The OL is. The Receiver position is. Quarterbacking is. The Linebacking is. Defensive Line is. Returning KO's & punts are. Playing 10 Canadian starters are. Not fielding the best roster giving us a chance to win is. Coaching decisions on & off the field are. And you pick on Castillo? Get real. It's not hard to admit. It's just hard to accept your logic. -
Just this site? Have you checked social media lately??? Most fans don't post here. It's X & Instagram. They do on Facebook but sites like "Winnipeg Blue Bomber Chatter" try to control the message by banning negative comments. All they end up doing is acting like fan boi's. I used to post there but quit. Don't like the constant criticism of fans opinions forcing them to be cheerleaders. This place is as real as any social media platform. Same things are being said.

SpeedFlex27 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
From a text 2 years ago saying goodbye & calling the CFL an "unforseen detour" And he had workouts planned a few days after the Western Final. His bags were already packed. Humble? The guy's ego was three hat sizes too big. Besides, I'm not wishing anything bad for the guy. He's pursuing his dream while getting cut down to size. When he comes back maybe he'll actually appreciate playing in the CFL. -

Rourke will never play here so if there are Bomber fans thinking he's coming then they should get a grip. Same with Lions fans who think that it's fait a compli that he's going there. Rourke's family is in Burlington. He grew up there. Has friends there. If any team could sign Rourke if he came back, it's the Ti Cats. Outside shot, the Argos if they want to get rid of Kelly. -

No kidding. So, he missed twice. **** happens. How many blocks did the OL miss while allowing Collaros to get beat up??? Yet, Osh keeps the band together playing the same tunes every game. -

At least Flutie started a few games for the Bears & was a star in the USFL. He also had incredible cred coming out of Boston College. Rourke is just another non descript college qb. Yet, some on social media thinks he deserves special treatment when he doesn't. Former Ti cat OL Peter Dyakowski was incensed he got cut calling him a "Top 15 qb" which is laughable. Rourke couldn't get out of the CFL fast enough in 2022. To him, playing for the Lions was an unforeseen detour. He was above all of us. Playing up here was beneath him. He felt that he was too good for the CFL. He was destined to be an NFL starter. Well?????
