  1. Elias two turns in two months. Thought only The Big Show did that.
  2. Still think the cap ain't going up? At that price it has to.
  3. What was the point of Nia Jax being in the men's Rumble? Funny how Strowman jumped in the ring the moment she was tossed out by Rey. And the Rowan thing? Another why moment as well. He's just a brutal wrestler. Fans neither like or respect him. He did suck the life out of that match.
  4. large doesn't necessarily mean most expensive. It would be interesting to know what these teams paid their staffs in comparison to others. I can't see Montreal as a "Go To" destination for coaches.
  5. Then why did he sign Jones to such a huge contract & allowed him to have 15-20 assistants? As well as the illegal pre-practice roster players? That is a contradiction.
  6. Reynolds had to know spending wildly whether on players or coaches would cause a problem with teams like Montreal, BC & Toronto who don't have the $$$$ to spend like the Riders & also are owners who don't like spending when losing gobs of money. I bet that's where this cap came from. I can see Braley leading the way as he is a famous cheap skate grinding that Lions into the ground. Like he did in Toronto where they've never recovered. The team should be stripped from the guy but that won't happen.
  7. I believe his stock has risen substantially seeing his record of the past 3 seasons. He would have to be closer to one of the highest paid head coaches in a new contract. He'd be a sought after HC if he left after this season. I think a new contract will reflect that.
  8. Makes sense to me. Why do I have a feeling that this cap on coaches & management may only last a season or two?? There'll be a lot of pushback to either increase the cap substantially from teams or to scrap it all together. Teams can thank the Riders for abusing everything. What did the have, close to 20 coaches last year & a huge scouting staff all the while Jones was the highest paid coach-exec in the CFL? He made sure that he was numero uno that's for sure.
  9. I have read somewhere that LaPo is the highest paid coordinator in the CFL.
  10. I think this shows how fans have misunderstood the cap on coaches & scouts as well as the slippery slope Maas is on with the fanbase in Edmonton. A prolonged losing streak next season probably will mean his job.
  11. Some Esks fans are upset. One guy on twitter blamed Maas & called him "a dolt head coach".
  12. Charlie Sheppard is another punter who should be on the list if he isn't.
  13. Dressler can be replaced. Age & injuries have caught up to him. Short term, he can put together a string of 4 or 5 games where he can be dominant but he can't play an entire season which hurts us more than helps us. There are some very good veteran receivers that could come here & be more productive. I think the Bombers should look at upgrading the slot position where he plays.
  14. The Pacific Division absolutely stunk with the Connor McDavid Curse. He could be traded to Tampa Bay & they'd start to lose.
  15. Why would any goalie want to play in this game when his teammates just don't care if they look bad or not?
  16. Do you actually think that is funny? If it was supposed to be that's lame.
  17. Jonas was the last of the straight head kickers for the Bombers. Walt McKee was the first "soccer style' kicker the Bombers had. He took over the PK job from Jonas in 1972.
  18. Quarterback Chris Vargas dressed for 23 games as a Bomber in 1997-98. His career Bomber stats are 415 pass attempts & 213 completions for 2,798 yards & 16 touchdowns with a completion percentage of 51.8% & 22 interceptions. His best year was 1997 when he threw for 2,618 yards & 15 touchdowns.
  19. Jim Ausley had 4 GC wins in 4 tries & was part of the greatest era in Blue Bomber history. Murphy had success as well as GM but nothing like that.
  20. Swift Current is isolated in SW Saskatchewan unlike Steinbach. There's no NHL team an hour away either.
  21. Yeah, typical Riderfans. Criticize the Bombers saying it's just an excuse then use the reverse logic on theirs.
  22. Those 2 communities are much too small to support a WHL team. The team would set up shop elsewhere outside the province.
  23. Walt McKee, Bernie Ruoff & Don Jonas. Check out his kicking stats in 1971. I think he led the league in passing & scoring that year.
