    Zero guys in the NFL. Does that say anything about our team/scouting/recruiting? We are 8-2 so our team is good as a whole but we seem to have trouble finding the next all star that is so good they are destined for the NFL. 

    Mike Kelly had like 5 guys from his 2009 team get a look in the NFL in the off-season. Wouldn't put too much stock into it.

    If only there were more threads so this kind of stuff wouldn't get lost in a mega-thread.

    But that would make too much sense. Less diehard fans must be punished for not visiting the disorganized mega-thread daily to sort through the mostly irrelevant **** posts to find relevant news points like TV schedules. If you're not sorting through those threads to find the relevant team news item posted ever 4-6 pages you don't deserve to know when the preseason game are aired.

    I've been an idle lurker for damn near 3 months and I still knew corney retiring happened months ago.. Yogi, you missing it in the posts is on you man.

     

    Also, wtf crawled up your ass?  Every single reply you've made in here has been completely dickish. 

    You're missing the point. It's that a forum should be a hub of team info and open discussion, not a off topic rambling group-chat for a few 55+ oldboys who don't visit any other site. This place has turned into somewhat of a **** hole of a site on a path towards being riderfans. The old boy dies hards with 10000+ posts are already on riderfan levels of toxicity and making this place insular for them is going to be the deathknell.

    I have been dickish, true. But I tried laying out my points and got ridiculed by the old boy die hards, and that's the only way to communicate with them. Also it's fun. I'd love to have a discussion on this, and some posters have. But this place is turning majorly toxic.

    You came into this thread to whine about not knowing about Corney's retirement because this "site" didn't cater to your needs.. This is a community that require people to start and add content. Everyone is encouraged to add content. 

    No one has stopped you from following the team and starting your own threads. 

    Lol, OK gramps. Literally not what's happening but whatever. I honestly have no idea what you're yammering on about.

    And, in what way is that different from a any post in a thread? 

    I mean, do you not follow the team for f'ng months then expect everyone else to do TL;DR thread for you?? 

    Like honestly, internet agrument aside, would you like us to put together some pictures to help explain what everyone in this thread is talking about? Because you're so off the mark I'm starting to feel bad for you.

    It's funny because you're the one whining about MBB not catering to you. 

     

    Here's an idea, why don't you start a thread about Corney retiring?

    Man you're slow. You're missing the point so much, it both hurts my brain and makes me laugh. Neither of the things you've brought up are being discussed by anyone but you.

    The way things are done is just fine. New threads are started when info is worthy of a thread...not everything is. I believe the over-arching threads encourage people to spend more time here, which is a good thing...

    It encourages a few to spend more time here certainly, but it also creates a barrier to discussion entry and encourages just as many if not more to not bother visiting or joining the discussion, which is a bad thing.

    But they have time to wade through 63 insignificant threads? 🙄

    Have you never visited another forum? Each thread would be its own more focused discussion, with multiple posts inside. These 63 posts would instead go into 6 threads... it's a novel concept but I know with a lot of focus and thought you'll understand the idea at hand and be able to thoughtfully add to this discussion.

    You're bringing up news from February and wonder why you missed it?  3 month old news would have been buried by now even if it had it's own thread so the fact that you missed it is on you, not the format of the forum.

    I'm here frequently, but I don't have the time or patience to sift through 40 pages of Noeller and 17to85 bickering about rural Alberta radio airplay of the Tragically Hip to see small news items like this buried on page 167. If it had it's own thread I would be aware. This is the concept we're discussing here.

    This site should be  a hub for Blue Bombers news and discussion, not a disorganized group chat for a small group of "diehards" who don't visit any other sites on the internet.
