You would be wrong. I have driven in heavy traffic in Winnipeg and it's a joke compared to Calgary and I am sure Toronto is even worse than that. Winnipeg is still a small city and even if you're in bumper to bumper traffic you don't have the distance to travel. the GTA is a ******* huge area with a huge population and you think Winnipeg traffic is going to compare to that in any way shape or form? Come on now.

Time for the CFL to step up and slap Jones on the pecker again.

but that's Burris though isn't it? All smiles and jokes as long as the panel is hanging off his nuts but the second anyone says anything bad about him he's got the pouty lip going full on and he's whining about being disrespected.

Yeah a lot of people knew that there was a Burris tantrum incoming after Ottawa signed Harris, here he is being the predictable whiny ***** that he is.

Doug Brown has very specific things he likes from a football team. If he doesn't see them he tells people about it, if he sees them then he's happy.

Yeah they want to win and to win you gotta beat the best teams so doesn't really matter when you play them. I think they're all tough matchups once you move to eliminations anyway so send a message beating the Germans and go from there.

but it is an analogy that falls flat. If you were comparing officers to coaches then yes I'd buy it. When a team stops listening to a coach that coach is finished, but players and other players, those fences get mended quickly when the performance is there. QB might be a leader on the field but he's still just one of a dozen players on the field.

Oh that's easy to get back. Make plays and that comes back right away. The hard part is for Willy to regain confidence in the team cause that's the biggest problem with him right now. He doesn't trust them to help him out. But that's something else that can come back I think. Given the good things that have happened the last 2 games it brings up everyones confidence level. A rising tide floats all ships.

no don't worry, you making a mistake is nothing new or exciting to warrant that so I wouldn't worry.

Yeah why not Messam

Really isn't a surprise, the mens athletes have been lacking compared to the ladies in summer sports for a long time.

Oh I hope he does. Henry Burris you are a whiny *****.

If Willy was still playing no one would be concerned with the teams cap situation so why are we getting so many panties in a bunch now? The cap savings ain't significant enough at this point in the season to sabotage depth at the most important position on the team. This is a discussion to re-visit in the offseason not in the middle of the season while the team is competing for a playoff spot.

and yet you say we could bring in people with even more limited success to replace him, so your only argument is that he makes too much money.... which is just stupidity. There isn't a cap crunch on the team for the year so why in gods name do we cut the guy? This has gone beyond football decisions for you and it appears you are simply looking to make an example of a guy. how DARE he lose some games for this team.

well imagine that.....

Who have done even less than Willy. Come on man, He was obviously gun shy about the pressure he was facing but it's not like Willy was seen as a poor backup when he was behind Durant, in fact he was seen as a pretty solid back up and has show good play as a starter, and some questionable play, but let's not pretend that all of a sudden he's a worthless player, especially considering all the issues this bomber team has had.

He's got one win as a starter in Grey Cups and he is probably lucky that game was played inside rather than outside. All the regular season accolades he's had and only one cup? That's not good. That's only a broken arm difference than noted choker Kevin Glenn. Burris might be talented but he's a *****. always has been, always will be.

No, this has nothing to do with any kind of attachment to a player, this is all about knowing how lack of qb depth has screwed this team over before. Seriously we've had "great youngsters" before who failed when thrown into the fire why take that risk? Things are close in the CFL this year why in gods name would we willingly remove the depth at a position just because of salary? That's a conversation for the offseason. In the mean time let's not fall into the trap of thinking we only need one quarterback. It's not your money why are you so concerned about saving a bit of it?

******* Winnipeg.... we've been absolutely raped in very recent history because we've had no depth at the quarterback position but now all of you are ready to take away that depth to save a few bucks. Never change Bomber fans, never change. Willy being here at a big salary has no impact on the roster right now and likely won't going forward so why would we willingly sacrifice that depth which chances are we're going to need again before the season is over? Not like Nichols has been clean throughout all these games, he's taken some shots and will take even more.

You know what, I honestly think that there wasn't much difference between the actual offense in both Hamilton games, the reason one was a close game and one was a blow out to me comes down to a couple things. Firstly the defense was better in this second one. They got themselves off the field quicker and obviously didn't give up as many yards or points and the other factor is that the special teams won their battle by even more and the field position in that game was heavily tilted. Field position in the CFL is such a big thing and the Bombers had great field position all night this past week.

I would say a more accurate way to say it is that the best players don't need everyone else to talk about how great they are. Burris is such a suck it's not even funny. A huge phony as well. The second something is hard or doesn't go well it's not his fault but when things are going well he's more than happy to take all the credit. I don't care if he is a better player than what we have here I never wanted that tool on the Bombers.

Some people define success in championships and in that category Burris is a choker.

Henry Burris is still the whiniest ***** in the league.

says who? red zone has always been referred to like 25 or even 20 yards out.

Man considering that Nichols has a lengthy injury history, and serious injuries to boot do we really want to bank on the guy staying healthy? Unless there's some kind of huge cap crunch you keep your depth at the position because we've seen what happens without depth at qb far too often in this city.
