And Dave Ritchie shed a single tear...

Crowton's deal's up Buchko resigned, not fired (no money needed) Burke is still technically around, so not being paid to do nothing Lapo's deal is up Mack might be still getting money going into next year, but other than that........??

totally...

Hootie Ray J is the ****...love that guy. Y'know what my biggest concern would be with Khari as HC?? My memory of him is the king of this town. He was a GREAT quarterback until we ****** up his career with a terrible OL that got him killed out there after too many hits. My biggest fear is tarnishing his legacy if he comes in here and just bombs as an HC. You know how quickly the idiots around here like to tar and feather a guy and run him outta town. It was painful enough the first time...I don't wanna go through it again.

Too bad there couldn't be some other role for him, but he made his bed by firing Berry and bringing in the Kelly **** show. And to top it off, has said publicly that he'd do it all over again. Sorry...you had your chance...

again, stated many times, we were at the cap...it just wasn't being spent WELL...

a lot of what I read in those Sun rag pieces is laughable...

It has been noted SEVERAL times that we were a "cap team", as was everyone else in the league...

I'm not as angry about the coaching as some, but one thing I do know: All this talk about the roster being SO bad, and Burke had nothing to work with.....bullshit. Mack brought the roster leaps and bounds from where Kelly left it. By no means were we a GREAT team, but it's not like Burke had absolutely nothing there. I'm not gonna throw Mack under the bus for this one.

there's so much rampant speculation going on. I'm not gonna get all freaked out over what may or may not happen, 'cause it's all just unnecessary stress. When everything goes down, which will be shortly after the GC, then I'm gonna get all freaked out, one way or the other (ha ha)...

Gary Lawless tweets that the Free Press can confirm Dave Dickenson is not interested in the Bombers HC gig at all (...I assume he called to check...) So no real big surprise there, but still a shame.

Agreed that it's always shitty to see a nice guy lose his job, but in this case, it had to happen. Still not sure how I feel about this "keeping Burke as DC" stuff, unless everyone really does buy in. I'd rather have a completely uninhibited GM come in and hire a completely uninhibited HC to hire his own coordinators. If, after all that, they decide Burke is the best guy, then by all means, I'm in...

Miller was one of the smartest guys on the team while he was here. I'm not sure if he's going to be a great hire or not, but you can't discount his intelligence and willingness to win. Those are real good traits to have in a Pres/CEO...

I haven't heard a single person on this site overly excited about Khari as HC.....not sure where Bluto's getting that from. I think the best I've seen so far is "Well, it might not be the WORST idea..."

Mo Price? Vincent Price?

...so there's a rumour that Burke might be staying on, and taking a demotion to DC, and that's why he hasn't been let go yet. Is there any way this would actually work? What qualified HC would want to come into a situation where he's saddled with a DC that he didn't pick? It's just a rumour, but since there's so little to talk about right now, I figured a "What If...??" thread might give us something to bullshit about...

I get the feeling you're a fan of change for the sake of change.

All sarcasm aside, I think this is a solid move and hope that Wade can move this franchise in the right direction with the same tenacity and work ethic he did for Pinnacle and his other ventures. Congrats WM!

I think enough time has passed that Burris isn't Enemy #1 anymore. Stamps winning on Rider soil would really chap their asses and I'd love nothing more.

Argos vs Stamps: "The Rematch in Regina".

Going back to that earlier note about Wiecek and QBs: If we can have both Collaros and Glenn next year, we are laughin'...

Interesting notes from Penton in the Sun prior to this game, saying he talked to Khari, and something is obviously up 'cause he never stopped giggling the entire interview. Also said the CFL brass at this game all fully believe that Miller/Walters are taking over the football ops dept and will just hire a new coach. All can't believe no move has been made on Burke yet. Also, Go Stanps Go.....ABS.

I actually kind of wanna see it, just because I wanna see 17to85 go full *****, which would mean buying a Stamps jersey, and preferably Nik Lewis or a throwback Burris or something......I just wanna see that.

Woulda had a shot at MOD if he'd have got by Cox...ah well...

I'd pay him whatever he wants, as a part time job, to come slap the ***** outta some ******* on the OL. Give him the wiffle bat left over from that old OL coach...
