    Some interesting stuff here including that BC offered a 3 year deal starting at 250 and escalating, but at the last minute when it seemed like something couldn't get done, Wade stepped in and shut that **** down.... Kingpin strikes again....

     

     

    Good on Wade. He likes wins and full stadiums and stepped up when needed.

    Also, 250K in Vancouver doesn't get you nearly as much as 230K in Winnipeg given the cost of living - and I'm sure Brady will have sponsorship opportunities in the city as well to bridge that gap a bit.

    Ya curious to see what Ouellette is getting. BO is definitely worth 15% more for passport alone.

    Just because it hasn't been mentioned yet, I think it's also noteworthy what BO provides in pass protection. Whether he's in to block the whole time, or chips the end/edge rusher then sneaks out for a check down in the flats, Brady is the best in pass protection too which is a criminally under-appreciated part of the game as it relates to the position.

    And let's not forget that the dude is a ******* complete back. Running, receiving, blocking. No guarantees a cheap American is proficient in all of that right off the hop. 

    Dude was the legit MOP in the league last year. Bringing him back is not a bad thing at all.

    Of course I make my most recent post and see this mentioning his blocking lol.

  3. IF it comes down to losing Schoen to keep Brady, I am 110% okay with that.

    Ignoring being from Winnipeg - We're talking about the best player at his position AND counting as a National, AND handling the ball typically 15-20 times a game, occasionally sometimes more.

    As the weather turns, running the ball gets increasingly important, while Schoen, is at a position where we already have great talent, is usually the easiest position to find new, American talent, and only handles the ball a few times a game.

    Don't get me wrong - I love Schoen. He's a gritty SOB and among the best at his position too...but given the above, if forced to choose (and hopefully we don't have to), I'm keeping Brady every day of the week and twice on Sundays. It's not particularly close for me whatsoever.

  4. 1. Brady. He's a monster, and frankly, he's as good now as Andrew Harris ever was. May he play his entire career in blue and gold, and an absolute gem off the field too.

    2. Grant. What a breath of fresh air. The life he pumps into this team is unreal.

    3. Schoen. Solid grabs and YAC tonight.

    HH - The team. There were some bowling shoe ugly moments in this game tonight and we could have folded any time - but, like a great boxing fight, we did just enough to stay in it, and when it came time for the championship rounds, the champions prevailed.
