sweep the leg

Why does it seem far-fetched to you. He did have a number of work-outs with NFL teams. He doesn't have the size to play Linebacker in the NFL. How much experience does he have at other positions? Special teams.

Things usually work out for us, so this will probably happen.

CJOB tweeted we offered $750k over two years. How much higher would you have gone?

Whatever you say Spuds...

Based on what?

I have full confidence that we'll find a way to not get this done.

Exactly. Make them regret taking Glenn instead of a good Canadian from the Stamps in the expansion draft.

A guy on TEP just pointed out that the CFL congress start on Feb. 4...in Ottawa. Isn't Burris a player rep?

Credibility = gone. +/- might just be the worst stat in all of sports. Every stat has it's purpose, but +/- is certainly low on the list of stats I would use to judge the usefulness of a hockey player.

that. Lalji said that wasn't true. The only place I read that we offered more money was Drew Edwards, & it seemed like he was just giving an opinion that he thought we would.

That seems to be the opinion of a lot of people around here. We have to get used to the idea of potentially having several good players on our team at the same time.

As per Wiecek on twitter Burris' agent says they've received multiple offers and will decide early next week. He also said the Bombers have been very aggressive.

Geroy went for an import receiver with man boobs, cut in training camp by the Lions, and a 3rd rounder. Banks is probably worth a 4th or 5th rounder. If we think Poblah is worth the same or less, it's a good trade for us. Clearly BC sees something in Poblah, otherwise they would have just taken a pick, which would cost them much less. If this draft is as bad as most make it out to be, a pick last year was more valuable than it would be this year. I think Banks has more to offer us than Simon gave the Riders.

Korey Banks was on H & L this afternoon and said Burris would be a Bomber. Lawless asked if him if that was just a guess or if he knew something the rest of us didn't, and he said it was "much more than a guess". He also said he doesn't sign the contracts, but would put money on Burris becoming a Bomber. Apparently they're good friends, so it seems as though they've been talking...

I appreciate the hours you must have put into those rants, but you should have noticed that we were disagreeing, not agreeing, on how our problems are b/c of the fans. It's odd, with all the research you apparently do, that you didn't notice that.

You seem like a fun guy.

Seems like a steep price, doesn't it?

My erection would be so large I'd pass out if we sign Burris & Muamba today.

Willy wears the crown he's the king around town. Dancing glancing Willy drives them silly with his star shooter shimmy shuffle down.

No kidding. No other fanbase has been forced to endure the brutality we've seen over the last two+ decades. Other fanbases don't have as much to complain about as we do. Again, we're not hiring the right people if they let fan complaints dictate personnel moves. Get somebody with a good plan and a set of balls who can make a plan & stick to it & maybe the fans will have less to complain about.

Of the two vet dbs we've talked about, I'd much rather have Banks.

Somebody on the Riders site said the same thing.

Bomber fans have demonstrated time and time again that they do not have the patience required to develop a new qb. Right, it's the fans' fault... You saying that this team hasn't made knee jerk reactions because fans in the city are growing restless? It's still not the fans' fault. You don't deserve to be a GM if you make personnel decisions based on popularity polls.

As Bomber fans to the end, we should stand back to back so we can save money on bullets.

Sweet Jesus would things suck if we miss out on Burris too.
