2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
I know a lot of people like Bailey for his emotions and energy. But he just comes off as performative and almost insincere to me. And always has. I will say it's a bit frustrating that he wasn't picked up by the Bombers, but at the same time I could see how his energy may not have always worked. That speech to the kids just amplified the self importance that seems to ooze from him. It's weird cause I usually like that type of energy in a player/person....but with him it just comes off a corny more often than not.

2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season Thread
I don't think he's safe from criticism. But if anyone thinks MOS job is on the line this year they're bananas. Not a chance in hell they move on from the coach with the most wins in franchise history the year they host the cup. Say what you want about him but that's just not going to happen. Yeah Farhan they dont need permission from BC to speak to a coach who is no longer employed.

All things considered...
It really should...solid regular seasons mixed with an all time one. 2 grey cups in 3 years. That's pretty solid imo.

2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
I 100% believe that's the end goal of this current run. Which is both great and worrisome lol. Worrisome because it's obvious some guys shouldn't be kept but also....who says goodbye in 2026...from players/coaches/management etc.

Most irksome moment of GC 2024- Why did they Stray from Brady?
I desperately want Bighill to retire and become a coach. I don't want him on any other team (not because of his play sadly, but he's been absolutely awesome in the community in WPG. Especially around youth sports) and I don't want him playing on the bombers. Hopefully he realizes the $$ just isn't there and that coaching is his best way to stay around the sport.

With all due respect. There's no way anyone but the coaches know if WJ deserves a raise or not. Did he perform above expectations given his role? No one on here knows the answer to that. It's obvious he wasn't being used as a traditionally DE. So we can't use traditional stats to say whether or not he played above his expectations.

I can't fault him. I bet he may end up regretting saying that to the media cause I'm sure it'll be spinned...but I like that he said it. Hopefully it's another wake up call for everyone that changes need to be made.

Kyrie was surprisingly fine I thought. We he's on, he's one of the best LBs in the league. He had that one moment where he slipped up...but in the end he's teammates bailed him out.

250k is fine...re-do the other parts of that contract so he's looking at 420/450k. Try to get him to be back on a team friendly deal as the big contract has not worked out.

3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.
yeah it's a bit of both.

3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.
I agree. we were a whiffed block and a half step from winning 4 in a row. Glad we agree.
-
3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.
of course. There always is. But I don't want to hear "we were a finger tip away from losing" when the same holds true for winning. It's a dumb point to make either way.

And we were a blocked FG & half a step away from winning 4 in a row. Let that sink in too

It really isn't. Feeding him the ball up the middle is sure. But you have to design your offense around your best players. Brady was an after thought today and it's happened too many times this year.

I'm not sure lapo is an upgrade. But buck is stale...at least with the talent we currently have

111th Grey Cup- Argos vs Bombers GDT
Ummm...I'd argue that yes, you sure as **** can. If not hand offs, screens flats etc. At what point did TO consistently stop that guy in all 3 games played?
-
111th Grey Cup- Argos vs Bombers GDT
I watched Stegall get force fed the ball when he was on **** teams. Coaching and play calls matter. Yes players failed today too. But if you're not forcing it to your mvp...especially when he was playing the way he was today...thats the coaches fault.

111th Grey Cup- Argos vs Bombers GDT
That's why this was so frustrating from an offensive viewpoint....we went and did exactly what didn't work the last time we played them and then ******* stuck with it....
