    I remember people saying they were happy to have won right after 2019 - and they didn’t really care if we won the year after. 
     
    Now they’re upset we have gone every year since and have only won once.

    I'm something of a bright-sider myself.
    Getting to 4 Grey Cups is an accomplishment in itself. Winning 2 out of 4 ain't bad either. But winning sure does feel better than losing...
    When people get critical of the Blue it helps to remember they likely suffered through the drought same as the rest of us, and they simply want what is best for the team, the best for winning football games. I'm sure some guys especially fear regression because they don't have another 30 years on this Earth to wait for another championship.
    Expecting an all-star at every position is silly, but wanting/wishing for upgrades, especially from some of our older and less dominant pieces (Kola, Jake) isn't. I get the disappointment.
    We all remember what it's like to be a bottom feeder, none of us want to experience anything close to that again any time soon... hence the creeping concern...
    Thank goodness we have the staff we do... they led us out of the wastes to the promised land, now we are navigating being victims of our own success, but if anyone can do it in today's CFL it's KW and co.
     
    TL:DR: Koombaya, praise the trinity

    Maybe I'm drunk ( I am) but anyone else think the jake Thomas signing is 1000% for character and character alone. Dude knows what it's like to be a blue bomber.
    To me it's interesting that we applaud this organization for having character guys, yet now when we sign character it's upsetting.
    4 grey cups in a row guys. We can have our oshea roster doubts. Let's trust Walter's to do his job.
    If Walter's says Thomas adds value.. I'm behind him
    4 GREY CUPS in a row. 2 plays away from winning 4 straight. Man I get the resentment, I do. But Thomas was signed for a reason. Maybe a reason we don't understand yet. We've been given no reason to over analyze yet.. this ain't previous regimens..
    My first 28 years of life on this earth we didn't win a grey cup. Now we've been there 4x straight and it seems like a good portion of this board is ready to jump ship like it never happened. I get that we need to be critical but let's reserve that until we haven't made a grey cup lol. Seriously. We were in the conversation to be the worst pro franchise in sports. Everyone hold their horses. These guys know what they are doing
    We have people on this website ( and I mean this respectfully) who think they know better than the management who has brought us to where we are now.
    - and to those people who know better. Where are your grey cup rings and why aren't you coaching pro football? It's easy to be critical like friesen when you ain't making the calls..
    To winning a grey cup that dodged us for 29 years... shessh man. Do we not remember where we were just a few years ago?

    JT could be a very good, seasoned vet, behind Lawson. Providing depth on a limited basis. Or, if there are injuries. I would prefer to just move on but the Bombers must believe he has one year left in the tank.

    I’m torn because I don’t really know what any of it looks like and I don’t really know what our approach is going to be short term vs long term.
    I won’t lie and say I’m a huge believer in Zach at this stage of his career and I certainly don’t believe Streveler is a better pure backup than Dru, but I do have hope that Streveler will bring an element to our offense that will help Zach. It’s a lot of moving parts.
    I think if it plays out how I expect it to, I’d want Zach over Dru at this point, but I’m scared that we are going to be in serious trouble at some point if Strevy hasn’t evolved as a passer.

    Yeah, I don't know if im happier with him than Shoen but I'd certainly rather strev than Oliveira...I for one think strev has probably improved his passing immensely over the last few years..

    It would be so much cooler if we could talk in person. Messages sometimes come across as very hostile, and probably are just tongue in cheek- joking tone

    Ok, now I think people are going too hard in the other direction here.
    Last year Brady was absolute crap for the first half of the season and clearly made changes to be the incredible back he was for the last half of 2022 and all of 2023. It is not all the OL and not every back will have close to his success. Augustine had a high average at the end of blow out games. It's not an equal comparison.
