The Day Early Game Day Thread - BC @ WPG
Atomic replied to voodoochylde's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Looks like probably Greaves and Bastien sit. Veltung starts for Moore. Vernon Kearney makes his season debut. -
Model for Scheifele's contract?
-
If we can get him back in September I'm sure they will find a spot for him and he will improve our defence where ever that may be.

"There is nothing Marve can show in practice this week"
Atomic replied to bb1's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
My point is that Marve hasn't really had a chance to go in. Brohm has played parts of two games this season. Marve was hurt for one of them. Maybe you could make an argument that Marve should have gone in eventually against Hamilton but is it that unreasonable that a coach would stick with his backup QB for one game? I think if Brohm starts this week and looks horrible, then it's time to put in Marve. And I bet that's what we'll see unfortunately. -

Atomic replied to bb1's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don't get what everyone is freaking out about. Do people think that Marve isn't actually injured? And that's not the real reason he didn't play? Come on. Marve himself says this was the case, that he only dressed in an "emergency" role. As bad as Brohm was, that's not what they mean by emergency... Marve was only there in case Willy and Brohm both got injured. Now he is back to 100% so we'll see what happens. The thought that O'Shea and Bellefeuille have some kind of grudge against Marve is just absurd. http://bluebombers.com/video/index/id/113531 -

That is some advanced sarcasm

Impossible to say they will never have the fan support. It takes time to build up a fanbase. Look at Tampa Bay, LA, San Jose, Nashville. Put a good team on the ice and the fans will come. In Canada you have three or more generations of hockey fans to draw from. It takes time to build up that kind of support. Frankly I think all the bitching that Canadian hockey fans do about southern expansion is a little embarrassing.

Ken Holland. Four Cups with Detroit (one as asst. GM). His team is also still pretty good with some very good young players. Ya you're right they should have hired Ken Holland. What were they thinking? Lol!!
-
Lol the fact that you guys had to go to Bowman to find someone who rivals Lamoriello's level of success should really say it all. Not many guys out there with a track record like that.
-
The Devils went to the Cup finals in 2012. Really not that long ago. Under Lamoriello, they won the Cup three times and went to the finals five times. But ya, he turned 70 and forgot everything he ever knew about hockey. Jeez. No other modern GM has enjoyed that level of success over such a long period of time.

And?

One of the top GMs in the NHL over the last 2 decades... If I was a Leaf fan I would love this move.

Lol see this is exactly what I'm talking about. First of all I never said Jenner didn't deserve the award, but you're already all fired up to tell me why I'm wrong. Second of all you say "we're all ears" as if you're speaking for more people than just yourself. Nope, even though you believe every rational person in the world shares every viewpoint that you hold, you only get to speak for yourself. Finally, your first paragraph almost killed me. Could you have any more of a martyr complex? I think it's time you took a look in the mirror and examined your real motivations here. You don't have to label everyone a bigot just to feel good about yourself.
-
I think part of the problem is the holier than thou attitude that people like TUP and Fraser here are adopting. This might be shocking but winning an ESPY is not a basic human right. People can disagree with Jenner winning it and not be bigots. Ya, some people probably have some phobic or bigoted motivations for having that opinion, but not everyone is the same way. Some people just think there were more deserving candidates and that's not a bigoted or even intolerant opinion. It's just an opinion.

It's time for the Riders to start sucking ...
Atomic replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
If I wanted to hire a new head coach right now... realistically I have to think Lapo is the only option. No one is going to let you steal their coordinators halfway through a season. Maybe you could convince Benevides, I suppose, but not sure he would be interested considering he stated he wanted the year off from football. That said, I hate mid-season coaching changes. I would give Chamblin the year to figure it out. -
Suggestions for us old timers... and thoughts on long term
Atomic replied to White Out's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yep you're right. Buono, Higgins, and Don Matthews stand out but the rest had no HC experience before being hired. 2014 Hufnagel 2013 Chamblin 2012 Milanovich 2011 Buono 2010 Trestman 2009 Trestman 2008 Hufnagel 2007 Austin 2006 Buono 2005 Maciocia 2004 Clemons 2003 Higgins 2002 Matthews 2001 Buono -

Atomic replied to White Out's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don't know if Walters and O'Shea are the "right guys" but I do know that Mack/Lapo got to a Grey Cup and Berry/Taman got to a Grey Cup and these guys seem to be better at their respective jobs than those guys ever were.... In my opinion, of course. There is a lot of parity in the league right now. If the Bombers get hot at the right time, they could win it all. Why not? I don't know why so many people stand out on the ledge after a loss. It's one game, we're .500. We almost stole one in Calgary... By which I mean, any win in Calgary has to be considered a steal for the Bombers with their history there. I've been a lot more worried about the team than I am right now... They look ok to me.
