The Woodsman, on top of a fabulous taste/flavour, has a ******* guy with a fishing rod in a canoe on the box.....A FISHING ROD IN A CANOE!!!

o.k...who is the best choice and why? Someone who hasn't failed here twice already for obvious reasons. Lapo has been stuck on TSN for the last few years, that says something to me about how in demand the guy is. Yeah he's the most experienced candidate out there... but that isn't exactly much to hang your hat on. Actually if you watch the interview you will hear that he said there are reasons why he stayed with TSN and turned down potential offers. Not to mention it's been reported/confirmed Oshea talked to him about the OC job when he first started but lapo said he wasn't interested at that time. Probably the payout from his last stint outweighed that of an OC Actually, I just read about this, this morning: MOS says he called Lapo when he first got the job, but never offered him a job...just called to "talk about football"....

that Village Woodsman has overtaken the Grizzly Paw Rutting Elk Red as my favourite beer right now. Had been a close contest between Grizzly Paw Grumpy Bear and Rutting Elk Red, but I love everything about the Woodsman, from the packaging to the actual flavour of the beer. It's like chewing on tree needles, and I love it.....

Lapo deserved to fall, but not till the end of the season. The concern was over how in-demand Burke was at the time (seen as the next Sure Thing HC candidate, at that time) and that we might lose him if we didn't promote him quickly. Lapo had dug his own grave, tho...

And it'd look GREAT on 'em....wipe that smug ******* smirk off Burris's face. I'm sure he figures he can be a Playing OC and run everything just fine.

o.k...who is the best choice and why? I've never claimed to be smart enough to know that....but I am concerned about Lapo, based on precedent, and I think that's justified.

Interview or confirmed hire? Twitter said RBs expect him to be gone to Edmonton. Also, Dinwiddie going to Calgary to work under DD...

If Walters pulled that off, I'd go down to IGF and take him out for some beers. Saw him at the Grey Cup gala and let me tell you - he doesn't need "some" - one or two is probably enough. Love that guy though. He's awesome. We talked a bit with MOS at TD MB and that guy can smack 'em back. Hell of a nice guy...but I wouldn't want to be responsible for his bar tab

This is going to be the most fun off season in awhile. Where's my popcorn eating emoticon........?

I'll say it again... how does Edmonton give up a 2nd round to land Laurent and Bombers continually offer our 1st for Poblah and then Waggoner... What was the harm in just offering our 2nd and seeing what happened - I bet no one else would have bid Completely false. Has been stated already that Bombers had to offer the 1st to get Waggoner. And comparing him to Poblah (who, btw, was considered a blue chip prospect at the time) is ridiculous at this point...

Lol! Byfuglien for Nikitin, straight up, I might do for ya....but if you want Eberle, you're gonna have to throw in a Little or something.

Was great when he FIRST came to Winnipeg....but he took some wicked shots early on that might've done him in. But if you recall the first several games as a Bomber in 2010...he was outstanding.

I like Lapo the person (I think that's what a lot of people are caught up in -- they like Lapo the person and ignore the slate of coaching evidence) and I'm happy he's involved in the organization. i'm always a fan of good PEOPLE being involved. Do I think Lapo is the best choice for OC right now? Absolutely not. Am I going to give him a chance to prove himself....again.....? Of course....I'm in favour of anyone who can try and keep Drew Willy upright.

Lol! Milt Stegall - Greatest Receiver Of All Time......Khari Jones -- One of WBB greatest QBs of all time.......Charles Roberts -- One of CFL greatest RBs of all time....Arland Bruce -- One of CFL greatest receivers of all time.......... Yeaaaahhhhh.....maybe they helpes.....a little.....

In 02 he had a gun slinger at qb and Stegall and Bruce in the slot, that put teams in a bind defensively and all Khari had to do was pick one of them to heave it up to. So sign a slotback to replace Moore... WIlly is a gunslinger and Denmark is our other SB. We have a Roberts/Sellers type duo in Cotton/Marshall... And don't forget that one of Jones' targets was Jamie Stoddard... we are way ahead of the curve there, probably four stoddards on the roster already! Lolololololol........ohhhhh my......

I'm still kinda hopeful Buck might be that guy one day...

I have no confidence that Lapo can put together a quality offense without Milt Stegall, Charles Roberts, Mike Sellers, Arland Bruce, etc.....

I'm gonna root for him because I like the guy, but man...you don't get back together with your ex...never mind twice. There's a reason you broke up in the first place.

Sigh......I like Lapo, as a person, but I really don't believe this is the best choice that could be made. It's more than a little concerning.....

I love Bell in AB because they're one of the least offensive of all the pirates, they ate my MTS contract when I moved out here, and have solid coverage when I'm home in Winnipeg, at the cottage at Victoria Beach and even when I'm visiting folks back in Pinawa. But, again, if I was back in Manitoba, I'd have an MTS contract in a heartbeat.....

Star Trek and Star Wars.......aren't they the same thing?

One of the things I miss most about Manitoba is MTS. One day I will have an MTS contract again, and it'll be glorious. The only reason I'd ever go to Rogers is to get free NHL Centre Ice, but even then....do you really wanna support the most evil of empires??

Sure as hell shouldn't be Lulay, as one suggested. Harris, maybe...but even then, I'm not sold on him, based on the second half of the season.

awesome news...extended through 2018. He's only going to get better, and likely starts at C in 2016.
