I think the real burning question here is whether or not Casey Printers will be signed by the Bombers.
-
This is a non-story in my opinion. Generally the people that don't re-new are those likely more influenced by things like a terrible season, or alternatively, were more likely to buy season tickets for the first year of a stadium.

I think its pretty clear that its Dr Jaffery13. Not sure how much more clear it could be. We're clearly in talks for a doctor.

I don't hate the comments, honestly. Confidence? Good. Desire to be multiple? Crucial. Definitely concerned what he means by no playbook, but I don't buy that anyways. Maybe its not physically copied out page by page. More concerned by how he intends to implement the scheme.

Two things I don't like: This town's media. And the "WE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW!!!!!!!!" group. Contrary to popular belief, buying a ticket or being a taxpayer does not mean you are a key decision maker on Blue Bomber events. They are required to give us some information, but that is it. If Miller keeps this up, I will be very impressed. It's about time someone let the media know they either need to write fairly or learn to deal with the consequences.

Aside from the PEDs what specifically don't you like about him? He was bad just not very good at linebacker. When he finally got an opportunity he couldn't make a name for himself (and was then replaced a year later). Played primarily as a special teamer throughout his career, so maybe the Bombers keep him around for that, with the opportunity for him to develop if he still can. Jeff Fisher loved guys that could play special teams.

Followed McRath's career with the Titans. Didn't like him then, still don't like him now. Also got suspended for 'roids. Will be interesting to see how he converts to the CFL game.

Pass Interference Calls…Challenges Ahead?
Captain Blue replied to Mr Dee's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Holding for sure, why not review whether a receiver was offside in his waggle too? Where does it end? Are we going to give coaches 20 challenge flags per game because there are a lot of calls get missed or are questionable in the course of a game. Hell why even have referees on the field? After every play let someone in Toronto watch a replay and call a penalty if there is one and review everything. Just say no to reviews. Go back to letting the onfield officials do it all and if they're wrong they're wrong. It will balance itself out over the course of a season. I'm agree with this train of thought. The slippery slope effect may present itself where eventually we take out the real time human element from the game. Some may call that traditional type thinking, not keeping up with the times of available technology. I call it boring where the game will have ultimately have no flow to it. I'd rather have the calls be right. Each team gets 2 challenges a game, the fear-mongering of too many reviews is overblown. -
Pass Interference Calls…Challenges Ahead?

I love this idea. -
Bob Wylie to be new O-Line coach - Confirmed
Captain Blue replied to Mr. Perfect's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
And again, obviously both. -

Captain Blue replied to Mr. Perfect's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yes!!!! -
Are you pleading for the Bob Wylie thingy or just remembering the words at the end of your first date? Obviously both.

Feel like he took an extreme viewpoint that wasn't necessary.

Chiu would be interesting. Definitely fit as an O'Shea hire. I'd be down with it.
-
A "no doubt starter" for Glenn? Screw that. Man I am going to be ticked if we pay that.

Great Bombers article from Gary Lawless today
Captain Blue replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
See, I don't think the problem many have (at least not me) is that he has to be either positive or negative about the team. As the lead columnist for the Freep, I do however expect him to be educated. Before the Unknown Poster gets all in a knot and shouts "But it's just his opinion!" I would like to point out that opinions can be both stupid and/or wrong. That's my problem with Lawless. If you are going to praise or criticize the Bombers or Jets, do it with both logic and evidence. There are plenty of reasonable arguments to be made off that. -

What an utterly useless, stupid post. This has as much insight as a Lawless article. No wonder you like him. -

Captain Blue replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Meh, Lawless has a point, but as usual in the rare instances he actually knows what he's talking about, still manages to throw enough crap in it that the effect diminishes. -
Guy looks solid. Found another tall, American receiver.

7am WBB FC Announcement -- Buck Pierce New RBs Coach
Captain Blue replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
What's the over/under on when fans start demanding Buck to come out of retirement and become our starting QB again? Week 1. Average fan still thinks he's really good. -
7am WBB FC Announcement -- Buck Pierce New RBs Coach
Captain Blue replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Can we start a pool on how long it takes for someone to call into CJOB and say that O'Shea should be fired and replaced with Pierce? "Hi Bob, long time listener, first time caller...just wondering..." I am setting the over/under at Week 9. -
7am WBB FC Announcement -- Buck Pierce New RBs Coach
Captain Blue replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I hate Lawless with a burning passion. He hides behind his "I'm a columnist" line for everything. I'm not really sure how much he actually knows anything about the Bombers, or if he just purposely trolls since that seems to be the way of print journalism nowadays. -

Captain Blue replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I can report that Friesen doesn't have a clue about anything. Sources say. -

Good for him. Interesting to see if it leads to something bigger later.
