yeah but according Vega, we are "THE BLUE" bombers....Where's the gold in the name??? That pissed me off when he said that.

are we really arguing about Huffs ability to create a winning team?? lol

There's people on the other Bomber forum thinking the same as me. It's actually very a likely theory on what happened. How does him being taken from our PR make us look bad? Yes he would have to want to go to MTL instead of waiting in WPG where he wasn't going to start, likely be listed as 3rd string for the start of TC. In MTL he has a very real chance of starting next year. And maybe even some game time this year. I don't see how that could be seen as a black mark on WPG. Unless someone just wants any and every excuse to see it that way. But what QB doesn't want a chance to play? And he wasn't going to get that here.

I don't know...that doesn't make sense to me. For two reasons. Huff has a winning season this year, why kick him out for a new coach??? Also, Dave D has pretty much said he is going to be in CGY for a while. And doesn't his wife have something good there as well? I can't see Dave D making a stink about not be a HC and suggesting he would go elsewhere if the move isn't made.

This would be ideal...or maybe another starting Canadian OL.

I've held his hands before....you don't know...you can't prove anything!

Doesn't surprise me. His first interview he said he was wanting to get back into the NFL. I never believed he really wanted to be here.

To quote Eddie Murphy.... What have you done for me lately? and that is the problem with glenn. sure. hes been in the league for 15 years as a starter and backup, hence his numbers but nothing screams out at me as starter material.. backup? Yup. Nichols too seems backup worthy only but he still has a chance to improve.. glenn is on downswing and of course anyone whos a fan of the CFL can attest to glenns lack of interest and fire in the belly coupled with his love of 4th quarter INT or fumbles.. Not to mention his Brock Ralphesque love of contact and rattleability.. He's 28 already and been around the league for several years, just how much improvement do we really expect out of the guy? Considering this seasons statistics only Glenn has a better passer rating too, and considering the absolute **** show that the Riders are that means a lot. Old man Glenn on a massively dysfunctional team is better than Nichols. You are letting your massive bias against Kevin Glenn cloud your judgement here. Glenn has been a legit starter in the CFL many tmes, Nichols has never been able to do that and I don't see it ever happening either. He's played in parts of three seasons, so that's "several"? Having MB as your coordinator is not something that's likely going to lead to a lot of success. And if you hadn't noticed, the Bombers really can't be described as a powerhouse either. And your massive bias FOR Kevin Glenn clouds yours. Not for a while he hasn't. And we're not talking about the Glenn of years gone by because that's completely irrelevant. The only valid comparison is who they are right now and what they might be like moving forward. And as I see it you are talking about two guys who are both backups at this point. And what about Nichols time in Edmonton? They tried to give him starter reps a bunch there and kept moving on to raw rookies in favour of him. People don't like Glenn I get it, he's got his flaws, but he's a pretty good qb when there's no pressure to win where as Nichols is a pretty mediocre back up qb. no they didn't? Nichols lost the starting job due to injury. He beat out Reilly, but busted his leg. And reilly took over. They didn't move on to "raw rookies" at all.

Well I think there's a good chance he's right. There strengths all play against our weaknesses. We're going to be in tough tonight

I laughed the entire time Taman was there because I knew it would come to this. Only one Rider fan I personally knew agreed with me and though he was happy about the grey cup, knew that what Taman was doing was really going to cost them later...Not sure he ever thought it would be 2-13 in cost but I'm sure glad it is!

I get what you're saying Iso. And I think we would have seen Davis had Nichols not been traded for. I know, if Davis was good maybe we wouldn't have had to trade for Nichols. But we gave up nothing to get him and it's better to have experience then none. So I don't think it's a case of him not being good enough to move up the chart. I think it's a matter of experience right now. He doesn't have any. And unfortunately even brohm has shown more then him. So he sits where he sits. Next TC will be the real test for him.

If the board is going to interview Taman for GM, they ought to make sure he can work a calculator as part of the process. They also better reduce the seating to about 10,000 at IGF. Cause ain't no one going to that ****.

I knew it. There was one hit where I swear he hit the ground and was out cold. But popped back really quick and got up. I remember someone helping to make him stable. Too bad, hope he plays it smart and realizes there's more life after football.

Let's keep in mind that 2 years really isn't that long to be developed into a starting centre. Many others have taken longer.

That trade will be huge for cgy come playoff time. I don't know what anyone else thought, but some of those hits Cornish took vs edm sure made him look wobbly..

I don't hate KG, but this doesn't really change MTLs prospects for a playoff spot. Though, with AC calling the plays that may help a lot as himself and KG are the same in getting the ball out quick, don't get hit type of play.

I would guess that if he's asking for a lot he's probably found something worth keeping as a career....Soooo he can be choosy.

Was Cone that bad?

Tried him already lol What are you lol'ing about. You dont think I know that? He was originally brought in the CFL by the Bombers last year. He wasn't bad during the 2014 training camp, actually many here believe he was at par with Lirim, problem is he is carrying a wrong passport. wow...moody much?

I've been hard on Owen most of his career. I honestly think he's been overrated for most of it. Last nights catch though...WOW. What a beauty. Saying that, I still wouldn't want him. Even just to sign him as a free agent. The guy has been making far too many mistakes this year. K well maybe as a free agent signing...but it'd have to be for cheap.

Bucknor plays way too far off the receiver. I don't know if it's because he lacks speed or what but throwing under him is easy as pie. Somehow he still manages to get burned deep too so I really don't think much of him. Not sure why he is even on this team. Surely Walters could have done better by now. He does make a decent play every now and then. But I agree, especially as the field corner, it always seems like he's giving the REC too much respect. Get in their face damn it!!!!!

we have enough guys who have a hard time holding on to the ball when it comes to returns and you want owens? lol ok......

I disagree...he may not have been before, but he's sure turning into one. What makes you say that? Honest question

Well said WWBFanWest

#10 on MTL just sent out a tweet to Henoc telling him (henoc) to get his check book ready. (to buy his number)
