Yes, by UNANIMOUS decision. 😉

You know. Props to Jake on a long career. A career only spent with Winnipeg. But it’s time to hang ‘em up. Let em go. Just enough. Dude gets prime Doug Brown reps all season. It’s just ridiculous. But props to him for sticking with one team. Maybe out of stupidity on our part the last 2 3 seasons now. 

Hervie must be able to talk some serious **** to convince so many different people he's just what they need.
He's Pinball's evil twin.

I am a long time peruser of your site, I never comment, never even opened an account until tonight. I am a Rider fan, wasn't even going to watch the GC but did because I am a CFL fan. I really want to smugly comment on your team's performance but can't because I too have felt the pain. I do feel compelled to offer an alternative to the narrative I'm seeing expressed. 
 
'The West Final gassed your team.'
I watched the WF, the way the Bombers played, fed off the crowd, like damn, the highest of highs. They came out flat in the GC, with the exception of a few.
My opinion with no skin in the game.

Good point, booch...
The last 3 qb weren't world beaters..

Are we so far gone that VAJ seems like a viable option?? C'mon fellas it's not THAT bad.....

VAJ attitude does not fit here. Dudes toxic like fajardo. Reality time. We host the cup. They ain’t gonna get rid of Zach now if they didn’t last year when we had an in house replacement 

Rather the qb who loses in the grey cup than the one that flames out before that...

I'd say it's a big gamble to move on from him with a GC host year. He's our guy.
Nobody else out there that puts in a better position, IMO
We'd be get used to the idea of one more all in year and then expect a step back for a few years

I’ll be surprised if Zach sees it that way 

Zach has $250,000 guaranteed. Unless he retires, he's back and we are paying him big bucks.

There's not gonna be drastic change when we're hosting the GC. Or at least not the suggested "be okay with a down year" to rebuild. Not gonna happen.
I think they did a partial rebuild in season, but I really think the best advice is what JBR said: Have Zach tell you exactly who and what he wants to surround himself with, and then go buy it. Take whatever penalties you need to, to put the most talent on the field. 
And while I'm not going to whine and stomp and cry about veta getting tossed, I do agree that Thomas and Bighill (among others) need to be, as respectfully as possible, moved into the next phase of their lives. 
I am ******* DEPRESSED today... And I'm gonna need some time away from football breaking my heart again....but come spring, I'll be ready to fly. I'm excited for full season tickets next year and hopefully being in town for both a WF and GC.
No matter what, Let's ****** Go, Blue.... #FortHew #DefendTheFort

Why didn't they bring in Dolegala?  He's won games before including big games like the '23 LDC, and he's surely more qualified to step into that situation than Wilson was.  Who knows, he may have lit up like a Christmas tree knowing this was likely his last chance to revive his professional career.  
 
 

You can take your argos are just so superior **** and GTFO. It was not a smart throw. Guy with collaros experience needs to know not to throw a ball in that situation, especially when his hand is messed up. Good play by the db? Sure but also a ball that shouldn't have been thrown.
Mark my words if the Bombers receivers didn't **** their pants so completely we're not here listening to your ****.

That's football though. You don't make every play, but you gotta make enough at key times. Rookie qb goes in yeah don't expect high percentage passing but if he hits you with a potential score you gotta reel it in.

Wilson should have gone in. This is a no-brainer if your quarterback can't grip the ******* ball. I can't believe this is even up for discussion am I taking crazy pills

Wilson completed the pass to wheatfall, he just dropped it. A little over thrown ( probably correcting for the previous one) but a catch that a pro football player should be making.
I liked the way the kid hung in the pocket like that. Looked poised for a qb so raw.
I agree that most coaches wouldn't make the change. But if he can't grip the ******* ball, what choice is there.
Man, I'm just pissed off.  I just can't believe they played so poorly. It's a long list of **** ups this year

I was just about to say, and I pretense this by saying I have a lot of respect for Mr oshea and am forever appreciative,
But when you say in your post game interview that Zach can't grip the ball 
Then what the **** is he doing playing?!?!?! If he can't GRIP the ball then he can't play.
It's either a lie/embellished or it's just absolute madness. Neither Is good

Agree, Lawler shows up, has a big game, and dissappears 
Schoen you trust in all situations. To get you the first over the middle, to run the screen, to take it over the top.
I didn't see the same Lawler magic this year with those " can you believe that!!" Catches
I saw and heard a lot of " he usually makes that miracle grab" though
Well no, he usually doesnt

Yeah, I agree.  It just frightens me now because, correct me if I'm wrong, Zach hasn't played well in a single one of the grey cups. 
Well enough to win yes, but not well. This year was the "dome, indoors!" And it was his worst showing yet 
Before the gc I saw bighill planning on returning. For a minimum salary as a back up??? 
As much as I hate to say it, there is a lot of fat on this roster to be trimmed. 
 

The franchise is In an interesting position. With this loss, comes a stench. No longer bad luck, no longer flukey, no longer "well get em next year!"
Things can't stay status quo, but with a home town grey cup next year, drastic change isn't coming
