Actually Parades was 1 tc.
True. He was here for the 2011 Training camp, the year after Palardy set the franchise record for field goal percentage with 26/30 for 86.7%. Tough to cut a guy like that in favour of a completely raw rookie, though it would have been nice to keep Paredes on the practice roster... many teams use a PR spot on a kicker. Oh well... ancient history at this point.

I can't imagine what person, in any walk of life, anywhere, would prefer to have a terrible team over a brand new stadium.
Would you rather be a millionaire or have cancer?

22/26 for 85% FG percentage this season in the CIS. Also 39 punts for 40.8 yard avg.

It said in the paper that Miles is an FA after this season, for what its worth.
Its too bad he got injured at training camp because it kinda derailed his season. I remember standing with Buchko at training camp and I asked him if he was excited about any player in particular and he mentioned Wallace Miles. Maybe he was on to something.

We barely have 3 serviceable NI starters, let alone 7. If we have a shot at Harris, we need to take it and get him here.

Salary cap is the same for everyone. Including the salary floor.
There's ways around it

Gold on gold looks great. Very flashy. Nobody can touch our golden boys.

Ya, but if someone took Andy Fantuz 2nd overall, you can't take him 3rd overall, similar to what happened with Westerman. You have an exponentially better chance of getting the player you want the higher you are in the draft order.
Agreed but no sense having a 2nd pick if the guy picking doesn't do it right. We need a GM who will make good decisions.
Maybe it's just me, but I hope the Bombers aren't taking a "We don't know what we're doing so it doesn't matter when we pick" attitude...

Who says Muamba is a lock for coming back....
Maybe we can trade Biks rights to Toronto for Collaros.
What! These two statements don't go together. The fact that Muamba isn't a lock to come back is exactly why I WOULDN'T trade Bilukidi's rights.

Etienne in for Foster this week....
"Burke said the rest of his team was present and accounted for in Toronto on Wednesday afternoon. And that included receiver Jade Etienne, who wasn't expected to play this week but was spotted on the ground Wednesday and is now expected to replace non-import Akeem Foster in tonight's lineup."

This is unexpected, sure would be nice to get him up here

The Bomber roster is not overly deep on talent right now, so the Blue and Gold should be able to protect most of their key pieces leading up to the Dec. 16 dispersal of talent.Helping matters are the 25 potential free agents who are currently lined up to test the waters, although that could change if the Bombers are able to get some of them to re-sign.The Redblacks will be wary to take free agents from teams since there’s a chance those players will simply re-sign elsewhere after the middle of February. There are a few potential free agents that might be worth taking a chance on, however, and the Bombers figure into that picture.
25! Crazy times.

And now he's a superstar down at the cracker factory

Foster is going to be a free agent. I have no problem with giving him extended play time to see if it is worth re-signing him. Now we know it's not worth it and can avoid a big blunder.

An impact like Elliott made? Are you saying the newbie HC will want his own guy?
I don't follow, on the Elliott comment. And yes obviously a new HC will want his own guy, and the wavering fan base is hungry for a new QB as well.
What are you trying to say?

...and was out of shape and didn't start training in earnest until mid May. Hold on to your hats folks, very few people have seen what he's capable of when he's in shape. And when you do, you won't even remember how to spell collaros - or care. Yes the O-line needs work, but Burke, if he stays, needs to be a leader without question. He is the most, "Maybe..., if..., we might possibly..., I think..., I hope..., we really should..., it was weird stuff... milquetoast of a coach I've ever heard. There is light at the end of this tunnel and it's not an oncoming train.Worth pointing out re: Hall, he is also coming off a year out of football as a player.
Sounds exciting but I just don't know if he's ever going to get a chance to show it. Time may be running out.
How is time running out?
There's only 2 games left and we may have a new coach and GM next year and we will almost certainly be bringing in a QB. If Max Hall wants to make an impact, he has to do it now.

Which would you rather have?
