  1. God that guy just seemed like he'd be eternal. At least his legacy will be.
  2. We will always have his epic special teams tackle in the 2019 grey cup.
  3. There are always value signings later in free agency. I bet we see some of them but mostly new faces stepping in.
  4. any improvement for this team was always going to have to come from the scouting department. Age and cost meant losses were inevitable. Young players coming in is always what was needed and that won't be known until the season starts. Given the history of them finding guys who can play though, I will be optimistic.
  5. Worse passport, less well rounded player... not comparable at all. Another year of high hopes in riderville, another year of disappointment.
  6. Much appreciation for yoshi and all he did... but he's dead to us now.
  7. BC desperately wants to be the Bombers.
  8. As it was, as it is and as it ever shall be. Amen.
  9. Janarion Grant has always been a late signing. Until such time as he is gone that's a non-story.
  10. Writing was on the wall when he didn't play the Grey cup. Maybe even sooner to be honest.
  11. Yeah I only started watching the last 5 minutes because I saw the score was tied a d it only reaffirmed my belief that CFL rules are vastly superior. That ending and ot drrraaaagggggeeeeedddddd on and made what could have been a super exciting dramatic finish seem like a chore.
  12. disgusting right? there's the players on the field making the play and celebrating that they've won the super bowl... but quick! cut to taylor swift! I got nothing against that whole sideshow other that not caring about it at all, but come on, that moment is about the players not the celebrities watching.
  13. I love hall and every thing he has done for this organization, and I think he was great at making adjustments.... but if his patented prevent defense goes away and never comes back I won't cry at all.
  14. Front 7 was always going to come down to the scouting department doing their jobs and finding some fresh bodies who can play.
  15. I thought Betts retired before the west final... otherwise surely he would have played in that game
  16. But doesn't that just show how self absorbed these guys are? Bombers gotta get like 70 bodies in camp, that takes more effort than hand holding players they're planning on moving on from.
  17. Always a fan of his. Tough to see some hard feelings but can't keep everyone over 30.
  18. you're one obtuse person... best kept secret doesn't mean he was intentionally held back. Just means that in my opinion (which is what IMO means...) is that the guy if given an opportunity could produce very well. And that's based on the few showings he has had. So yes I would rather a player who has shown glimpses over guys who can't play because they're hurt. This idea you have that the coaches make no mistakes is awful. Our coaches regularly dress players who don't take 1 single snap in a game. They waste roster spaces all the time.
  19. BOLO IMO was the bes5 kept secret in the league. That guy can play and was a shame that with everybody hurt he didn't get used in the Grey cup.
  20. Fact is that bighill is barely fast enough these days when 100%. Dinged at all his play drops off a cliff. Should have been out 100%. And schoen wasn't practicing at all... another should have been outm and Bailey was clearly hurt, should have been sat. But really with the receivers you want to play one dinged guy fine, but you can't do 3.
