Thanks Coach! It’s a labour of love and I’m so glad you’re enjoying them.

All respect to you. When I'm your age I'll 100% feel the same way about how they do it then. Being almost forty now, though I'm crushed Bob is retiring, I do enjoy DT's take on things. In his interview with Ed Tait he said he gets that not everyone's a numbers person so he'll try to make things interesting and accessible. He did an interview with Hustler today too that was great. He said he spent 2 hours reviewing how Mike O'Shea manages coin flips, which he will no doubt share with Osh and will continue to offer helpful findings to the club. He mentioned a couple of interesting tidbits that I found enriched my appreciation of the team: 1) Greg Ellingson draws the most PI's of any receiver in the CFL and, 2) Collaros is the least sacked QB under pressure. Just my two cents. He said that? Nice! DT's on the forum!! Woohooo. This is super cool. Gotta get you on my Bombers podcast man!!!

Hi All, This episode features an interview with Bombers DB and West Final hero Nick Taylor! So excited he agreed to be on the pod. You'll really enjoy him. Our first ever player guest talks about his journey from college basketball, to NFL, to becoming a key member of the Back2Back Champ's #Darkside Defence. Listen as he gets you inside the locker room to share FIFO really means and how the way of O'Shea completely changed how he prepared for games, and how the 2019 defence came together so quickly. Nick also shares his favourite 90's music, preferred travel destinations, and more! -Shoutout to #bombersuperfan Lefty Carol and CFL Cartoonist Gary McDaniel Google: http://bit.ly/3mOpMb3 Podbean: http://bit.ly/3oZiGTG Apple: http://apple.co/3ayNHW7 Spotify: http://spoti.fi/3BESm4V As always, I appreciate any feedback, positive or constructive!

Heavy ball though

Omfg can you even imagine????!!!! These no way. Or IS there? 🤣🤣🤣

FWIW the posting on CORUS’ website for Bob’s job has been taken down. And it was only put out on Feb. 11. Could mean many things, including the fact that they’ve given it to Taylor.

Sorry resigned

Plot thickens: Murray McCormack interviewed Taylor in the Regina Leader Post today. Taylor indicated he re-signed to focus on sports betting, which is his passion. Re the CJOB job, he said, “I should look into that.”

All respect I think you’re missing the forest for the trees here. I highly doubt he means HE accomplished it all by himself. I think what he’s saying is that with the Grey Cups he’s deserving of a big contract. Like anyone would.

Yessssss I’ve been looking for this forever. Thank you!!!

Gotcha. I hear ya. I just think the cfl needs all the eyeballs on it they can get.

Yeah he’s awesome. And you can stop listening right after to avoid my ranting about NFL OT rules and the entertaining nature of Jones signing Arceneaux & Bowman. Ridiculous but headline worthy at least!

Thx coach. Really appreciate the feedback and you tuning in.

I took your feedback to heart. Let me know what you think of the new format. Thanks! Zach

Ouch!!! That’ll be me in a few years, with my ailing knee. Totally worth it. Feel better!

Have both too. Paul Friesen, who did Against All Odds, said he only did it bc he had time in the pandemic. No plans to do a follow-up. I do expect another Grey Cup book from the store though. Re the lack of Grey Cup video, I asked Carol at the store about his in 2019. Apparently it isn’t cost effective bc they’d have to pay TSN for the right to use the video. I’m still not entirely sure why they can’t just work something out though. They could even only make it available for download and ppl would buy it.

Hey Coach 1 Hey Coach17, thank so much for your detailed, honest feedback. That's exactly what helps me polish the product for, as you say, a wider audience. I think I've maybe received too much feedback from family & friends! I know many ppl I've heard from like my personal ramblings (admittedly, many fam and friends) so I think I'll put that at the end if I think it needs to be there, but I'll think carefully about it. I love your comment about making them shorter, more intense episodes and going right to the advertised subject matter. Still, I'm SHOCKED you're not interested in my personal life LOLOLOL. Thanks so much and keep it coming! Zach

The Bombers approached me as they were really needing depth at Canadian running back but my 38 year-old bones are too creaky these days.
