the watcher

You and me both

Wow! One of my favorite old movies and I never thought about what a perfect comparison the 2 are.Well done Mark!(slow handclap).

This is as pumped as I've been in a long time for a season opener. A Win would be glorious!

Very Cool!

Yes! Love it.Nice to see Durant rub their noses in it a bit.

A big thanks to everyone for the camp reports and other general info.I rarely check the papers now,I just read Tate's stuff and here.

I tried to hang out on both sites for a while (lurk mostly) but just slowly faded away from OB.I feel a nostalgic remorse at its demise but it's been a long time since I drifted back to check it out.

Very interesting.I just read it on the Bombers site.I hadn't heard anything about this.Could be a real boon for IGF and the Bombers. It could also be an utter disaster,but nothing ventured nothing gained.

I'm generally not that critical of Winnipeg press except for one.Paul the weasel Wiecek.Total dislike.

I'd totally forgot about That! Thanks for the memory jump start.

Stupid Flanders!(had to say it)

Didn't look good.

Something out of nothing by McDuff

Ya Anderson really does look good.

Thanks for the reports everyone . They're much appreciated.

Does anyone know who else is seriously looking for a kicker?

Merry Christmas everyone.May you live as long as you want to and want to as long as you live.

I think Lapo was the best choice at this particular time.Some have posted that he was the "safe" choice as if that was a bad thing.I think he was the safe choice and that is a good thing. There is alot of anger and even worse, apathy about the Bombers.I really think they they absolutely can't blow this year off or the franchise could struggle. Lapo at worst will be competent and may be quite good.Most of the other candidates carry a greater risk and yes perhaps the chance to be spectacular. I've run alot of businesses over the years and I always found there was a time to roll the dice and a time to play safe.

I think in this instance the Bombers can't afford another "swing and a miss".If they have another bad year Icould see attendance falling off dramatically. Sometimes safe and uninspired is better.Lapo is at worst a competent OC.

I wish they had punted MB midseason so we(I) would have a better idea how much was bad coaching and how much was lack of talent.Right now this seems like a deep dark hole we are in.

I agee with this.My question is, who would be the possble candidates for OC be? Who's available now and who might spring loose?

Basically its all speculation including the original story. There are a host of possibilities many of which have been mentioned and many we haven't thought of.I think (speculation again) Wade is VERY worried about the effects of this season on ticket sales.Apathy is settling in concerning the Bombers in Manitoba and personally I think thats worse than anger.If Wade steps on toes either in league or in house to try and correct things, so be it.If he wants an assistant coach who can take over from MOS if we struggle in the 1st 8 games so be it.MB shouldhave been sshipped out when we still had a legitimate shot at correcting the ship.Time to push, and maybe he is pushing.

The Bombers are about to turn it around?Cool!

This D has been improving every week.They simply dominated tonight . I'm impressed to see what a competent backup could accomplish with limited reps.Good job by Walters to go out and get solution to a problem.

So Bhrom has only skipped 1 off the turf, and hasn't been horrendous. Does that qualify as a success?
