    Jimmy Pop reacted to 17to85 in Expectations for 2014   
    After watching the team roll over and die at the first sign of adversity last season I just want to see a team that battles hard from start to finish week in and week out.

    Barely a mention for one of the All time great RB's... As expected I guess with the festivities in MtL.

    Add this name to the list of unannounced recruits by the #Bombers: DE Stafford Gatling (6'4", 250) formerly of Ohio U and the NY Jets. #CFL
     
    Think it was the same day they cut Boatman.

    Jimmy Pop reacted to Mike in Buck Pierce set to announce retirement today   
    I would assume that with his fiancée living here and his business interests being here, he'll become a full time Winnipegger if he's not already.
     
    I know I often ragged on the guy for what he did here as a player, but I definitely always wanted to cheer for him. I'm glad he's leaving the playing field on his own terms and I honestly wish nothing but the best for him. Definitely a class act human being. He held his wedding social last weekend and I've never seen a host be so gracious towards all the guests he had. He made a point of shaking every hand possible towards the end of the night. I kind of expected him to just socialize with his close circle of friends that night, but he went out of his way to make sure every single person there knew he appreciated them being there to support him. Classy guy all the way.

    Jimmy Pop reacted to Mike in Edwards Announces Retirement   
    2007 - 2nd in the league in receiving yards and touchdowns
    2008 - missed 3 games, still went over 1000 yards and only finished 13th because it was one of the craziest passing years in recent memory
    2009 - down year ... the forgotten year
    2010 - 2nd in the league in receiving yards and touchdowns (1300+ yards)
    2011 - 7th in the league in receiving yards, 3rd in touchdowns
    2012 - 8th in the league in receiving yards
     
    8th in the league or better in an 8 team league does NOT equate to a "perfect 3rd option"
     
    Edwards was an elite receiver. One of the league's best for a period of 6-7 years. And considering who he had tossing him the rock for the majority of the time, it's even more impressive.

    I'm getting kind of tired of these Bomber greats retiring without a Cup. The phrase "Would have been nice if we could have won one for..." is something I'm entirely sick of hearing.

    I hope we are not so desperate for linebackers that we are looking at a rapidly aging player who was only barely good enough last year.

    Jimmy Pop got a reaction from Blue-urns in Arland Bruce, classy as always   
    Not sure where you read anything about "HUGELY" ignorant.... I think my post was clear that IMO (only an opinion, for the record) there aren't definable degrees of ignorance here.
     
    Look at the CFL's comment on this: announce that both players have been fined. They didn't say one was worse, or that the penalty for one was more severe... because really that doesn't matter.
     
    Both comments are offensive, and that's that.

    Such criticism of management should not be tolerated.  Mr. Price should also be traded to Winnipeg immediately.

    You're right.  There is no difference between judging people on their character, personality, judgement and poor management/writing and judging people based solely on elements of their humanity that they don't control like gender, race and sexuality.

    Honestly, I'm surprised the Riders are ever required by the league to play on the road.

    Wasn't long ago people we're labelling Scheifele a bust, saying he'd never amount to much.
    Time will tell if Etienne haters are proved wrong as well. But at only 24, no one can say definitively either way.

    No.. I think the fans will be willing to go through the growing pains with Qbs that are showing glimpses of being something great while being inconsistent. 
     
    The fans are not going to sit through another season, with the same performance from the same QBs we had last year.

    I'm not freaking out about missing on Burris. I'm freaking out because it's obvious that we are not in any way, shape or form a desirable destination for players who have a choice. And that's a problem.

    Even in that 2 team league I can't see either team winning. All they'd hand out at the end of the year is those colourful participation ribbons kids get for science fairs.

    17 is discrediting Burris way to much. Signing Burris would instantly give us our best qb since 2007.
