Pete Catan's Ghost

You mean a hybrid like....say....Flanders?

If anything, I see a gentle nudge from management for Hall to retire with a replacement coming from within. He is too respected by management to be canned. Before anyone says that an internal coach taking the leap to Richie's position is crazy talk, remember how many of us thought that Bob Wylie would be irreplaceable. Of course, if we can juggle the ratio (see Demski) and replace Hurl with a moderately competent import, then Richie's future looks a lot brighter

Would love to see Neuf get a little redemption today.

Cryders keep on trotting out this "rebuild" language, like it is an acceptable and necessary move on their part. Who's to say that they wouldn't have reached the unremarkable level they currently sit at, by making less drastic change than they have over the past few years. Just because you choose to gut a team of its existing players doesn't mean that management shouldn't be held accountable for wins and losses. Once they have to pay market value for next year's QB, you will see many of the other more costly pieces on their roster not being resigned. Looking forward to seeing who won't be back from the current roster if they have to fork out for Franklin, Collaros, Lulay, etc

Not to mention that a pretty penny will have to be paid for a higher priced QB than they currently are spending on that position....or else roll with the Banks’ and Glenns’ of the world.

Replace the name Jack Kennedy with Charles Roberts:

He's not the brightest button on the blouse.

The hit on Adams looked much worse from the stands than when I got home to watch via PVR. It was more that Darvin was going full clip into the defender and was stopped very suddenly with a shoulder to shoulder. The defender was not running at him with a full head of steam.....But of course, a fluke injury can happen anytime (see Mo). Also when he was leaving the field, he was not supporting his left arm. No way anyone with a fracture/dislocation is going to trot off without favouring or supporting the limb with the other arm, or at least holding it close to his body (depending on the type of injury).

Today would be a good time to get some unexpectedly good play from Normand.

According to Tait, Flanders has been 6 gamed. https://www.bluebombers.com/2017/10/13/game-preview-bc-vs-wpg/

Pretty big ulcer...about 5' 10"?

It may be warm out today, but don't fool yourself; this is October football. Our two headed rushing attack is about to kick it up for the playoff push.

I will take your thoughtful plan for twin plaques;....cut a bum-size hole in one....paint them bile green....attach them together with bailing wire ....and use them as a turlet seat for my Uncle Jebediah's outhouse.

Malveaux was always a real Sharpie.

I think this is what Dee was trying to convey with the initial post.

Nice research Arnie

Is this a shot? Some of my best work has been accomplished in this shape.

It's impossible to keep track of all the rotations that take place during a game. In a fantasy world, I would be able to see the percentage of non special team snaps each player takes, and which position they play when they do. Briggs and Neuf immediately come to mind.

Good god man..... I’m a ghost. it’s what I do.

I saw Hill at Duckworth today...working the room. Looks like he could still strap them on.

Toth asked Tait on 1290 this AM, whether Thorpe had contacted the team about a return. Ed's response - "If he did call, I'm sure it was to Walters and not Osh". They both agreed that coach would not be quick to welcome Thorpe back.

If he's not under contract for next year, and since there will be little other competition for him at the current rate, he either takes a haircut or moves on to life after football. Maybe they meet in an area of mutual agreement, where Bombers sign him to a Fantuz-like, coaches contract. The thinking being, that they can activate him on a player's contract if needed due to injury? To me, the BB hold all the cards on this one.
