  1. If Letang and Dupuis have healthy careers, this is a different team... but they didn't. Crosby's contract started it but Rutherford is destroying whats left of this team though... Neal for Hornqvist... salary dump the guy who had the best chemistry with Malkin... Ever since then they've been trying to replace that... now they are stuck with Perron and Kessel, still up against the cap.
  2. Seems to be a lot like Loffler... probably between 9th and 15th - once you remove the NFL guys, maybe 3-4 of them - then he would probably have gone in 1st round, not second overall though In 2015, I would say he either goes 5th overall to BC or drops into the second round.
  3. After Chamblin tanked, no one wants a disgruntled coach... of course, still not too sure why he did...
  4. You are right. I hate baseball. Do three quarters of those teams have any realistic chance to ever win the World Series? It remains to be seen if the Riders are the new Evil Empire. I doubt it but time will tell. We will never be the evil empire, because evil is not in us. Full credit to Rhodes and Hervey for not standing in the way of Jones. Very classy way to handle the situation. Same can't be said for the media and some of the fans, but upper Eskimo management has handled it the way its been handled many times in this league, with class. Why stand in the way... after Sask went after Jones, it was pretty clear that Edmonton would have to get rid of Hervey at some point to keep Jones... Hervey probably just bought himself three or four more years as GM
  5. Trade Buff at the deadline for a 1st round and a prospect... then sign him on July 1st
  6. Bob Dyce is a pretty good personnel guy... I believe he was the one who pushed for Labatte Forget Craig Smith...
  7. HaHA Bo Levi Mitchell ✔ @BoLeviMitchell Leave it to Rider fans to talk trash after a 3-15 season. Please stop. It's pathetic.
  8. I'll say it again... how does Edmonton give up a 2nd round to land Laurent and Bombers continually offer our 1st for Poblah and then Waggoner... What was the harm in just offering our 2nd and seeing what happened - I bet no one else would have bid
  9. Wouldn't Jim Popp and the Als be close for that award, what with his 4 stints as HC? Buono...
  10. I think the Bombers will be interested in him, either as an offensive assistant under LaPo or as ST coach. WHy not re hire a string of old Head coaches that the Bombers have fired. Lapolice as OC Mike Kelly as Receivers coach Dyce as STC Doug Berry as QBC Jim Daley as the guy who gets Wade Miller Coffee and stuff Or just Dyce...
  11. Okay, so wait... LaPo is a bum because he had Dave Ritchie, Khari Jones, Milt, Chuck, Arland Bruce and Sellers but Pierce is a damn good QB because he had Buono, Simon, Clermont, Joe Smith, Paris Jackson
  12. In 02 he had a gun slinger at qb and Stegall and Bruce in the slot, that put teams in a bind defensively and all Khari had to do was pick one of them to heave it up to. So sign a slotback to replace Moore... WIlly is a gunslinger and Denmark is our other SB. We have a Roberts/Sellers type duo in Cotton/Marshall... And don't forget that one of Jones' targets was Jamie Stoddard... we are way ahead of the curve there, probably four stoddards on the roster already! So wait you compared can't stay healthy and proven nothing Cotton to one of the all time best Bomber (and arguably CFL) running backs and compared any of the receivers on the roster to the greatest receiver in league history... never mind that Bruce himself was better than most of the receivers playing in the CFL right now. That's not even getting into how good Mike Sellers was. I know 2002 was a long time ago, but that offense was ******* stacked. I'm not saying we have the same level of talent... but the makeup of the offence is similar. As I recall, the 2002 offence was pretty much those four guys and that's it... 2003 Bobby Gordon replaced Bruce (?).

  14. Okay, this is pretty funny... Paul Friesen ✔ @friesensunmedia I asked LaPolice if his stable of QBs is good enough. Wouldn't give a direct answer. Says he has to evaluate. #Bombers. jim bender ✔ @bendersun @friesensunmedia He has to check the film first.
  15. Would really like to see Dyce back as ST Coordinator...
  16. Oshea and Lapo's shirts are the most exciting thing to happen this off-season. Seriously.
  17. I don't mind this... maybe Khari will end up as QB coach
  18. No one's fooled at all... Semin is awful. That being said, I would have been totally fine with Stempniak on the third line with Burmi/Ehlers instead of Thorburn.
  19. LOL. I wonder if Picard is open to become an assistant to Wylie.. This is actually a pretty good idea...
  20. You don't actually have to repeat what I just pointed out ha.
