Like I had said, nothing here. They made a decision to cut him. Should we question every cut they make & ask why? Chances are, they'll bring in a fourth qb later. They have their 3 qbs & seem happy with them.

Could be. But like I said teams signs free agents so does it really matter? Teams have to keep the qbs they develop. Other than Mitchell, Durant (until Jones showed up) &Lulay, qbs go where the most money or best deal is.

Surely some of you don't think there's a conspiracy here, really? Players get cut.

I guess it doesn't matter who recruits who, it's who ends up starting where.

Neither have about 50% of the teams.

Funny how I remember so many posters that thought Reilly was overrated when he signed with the Eskimos. That he'd never amount to much with Edmonton. Why can't we just be satisfied that the Bombers seems to be on the upswing? That Nichols gives us the best chance to win.

What do you want from Nichols? He got us into the playoffs last year & played very well. The "We Can Do Better" Crowd. Always something to complain about. Never satisfied.

Only O'Shea & LaPo know the score here. Not us. Not going to argue over this.

If Davis does improve & shows he can play then LeFevour will be gone next season & they'll bring in qbs they feel they can develop as the #3.

Look at the Bomber qb'ng situation. Nichols is 30-31 years of age who just signed a big long term deal. He's not going anywhere for awhile unless he totally craps the bed like Willy did. LeFevour must be late 20's & may be just a stop gap answer as I don't think he unseats Nichols anytime soon. He was signed as the veteran qb behind Nichols which may only be for this season. Then there's Dom Davis who is getting into his late 20's. He's the development qb who may take the #2 spot or settle in again at #3. The Bombers really don't need a raw rookie qb to develop right now. They have their 3 qbs. The question is who will be #2? That's why Apodaca was cut.

Again a coach sees potential & then allows it to develop. If he doesn't then a player is cut.

As rookies, yeah. Both had strong arms. Brock was totally clueless about the CFL (probably like Apodaca was) when he first came up here. Knew nothing about it. Both struggled like every other rookie qb in their first training camp with the different rules, wider field, bigger end zones, 3 downs compared to 4, one more man on O & D as well as motion. But that's the point. Had Riley not seen something in Brock, even with his struggles we'd not be talking about a HOF career. Sometimes even just a series in an exhibition game can catch a coaches eye & in turn make a career. I guess O'Shea didn't see any potential in Apodaca. That was my point.

When Dieter Brock came to the Bombers in 1974, that's all he had was a rocket arm. Bud Riley saw something in him he liked. I guess Mike O'Shea didn't see the same potential in Apodaca.

I bought a 32 inch Sharp tv from Best Buy 2 years ago. So far no problems. Nice picture.

Having an offensive line that blocks helped a lot as well.

Instead of sparring, we should have a discussion either here or on PM's about our memories. We look to be from the same generation. Don Jonas lived 2 blocks from my house. He used to go to the Riverview C.C to do some throwing. Used to see him driving around the neighbourhood with his family in his huge Chrysler station wagon with orange & green Florida plates.

So, WBBFanWest, since you liked that I deleted a post, why don't you join in here & tell us your Blue Bomber memories? I'd be interested to know how long you've been a fan & the things you remember. Especially when you think somehow I'm a Stamps fan but not a Bomber fan.

Yes, just an opinion. For discussion purposes only.

At the same time, wrestling fans in North America didn't care. Yet fans in Japan knew who the WWE wrestlers were. Like I said, if it wasn't for the hard core wrestling fans here, I'd not know who Kenny Omega & other ROH & NJPW were.

Different eras.

I still say that in pro wrestling until you make it big in WWE you're not really big. There are millions of fans worldwide who don't watch the other promotions.

Football fans in the US don't know our CFL stars. Neither do fans in Europe & China like they know NFL stars. The NFL is the Big Time. The CFL isn't. Lots of wrestling fans don't watch TNA, ROH & New Japan. They only watch the WWE. I know there are rumours that Omega will be coming over to WWE at some time in the future. If he does, he'll probably be a huge star. At his age, it should be sooner rather than later. If it wasn't for some of you guys here, I'd never have heard of Kenny Omega.

Okada/Omega can't be the modern equivalent as not enough people have seen them wrestle. Whereas millions saw Flair & Steamboat in the 80's & 90's have some huge matches. I know some of you guys may hate to read this but the WWE is the true Big Time & until they go there just like AJ Styles did, they won't get their due. Styles is a huge star now thanks to the WWE. Much,much bigger than he was in TNA & New Japan.

This better not be another Voyager... All the wait for really a bad series.
