GCn20 got a reaction from The Classic in Free Agency Frenzy
Someone needs to explain to him that it's none of his damn business and he should shut the hell up.

GCn20 got a reaction from Noeller in It's 2017 and the Riders just put _________ on their neg list ...
Pederson also picked them to have 12 wins last year so this is not surprising. In fact, I don't think there has ever been a year where Pederson doesn't predict a great team.
I would like to know in what dream world he sees a comparison between Jones and Bellichek?

Your top end is very good (Carter/Roosevelt) after that it is pretty average. You guys grossly over rate Holley/Collins/Bagg.
I definitely think that as a whole our receiving corps is better. You guys have a couple better players but we have the definitive edge overall.

GCn20 got a reaction from Fred C Dobbs in Bombers Off-Season Transactions
Just to get back to the Stafford signing for a minute, there was a report by Dunk yesterday that has been flying under the radar a bit.
He stated yesterday that the quartet of Adams, Stafford, Dressler and Smith will make a combined 565k this year. That is an average of 142k per receiver in that group. Let's do the math based on believed current contract values....
Dressler - 170k
Smith - 150k
Adams - 170k
Total: 490k
Therefore, if Dunk's 565k number is accurate, we are paying Kenny Stafford 75k this year for his services. If that is correct, I retract my objection to us signing him. He's worth the 75k gamble.

Won't hear about who might be in the supplemental until after the window for declaring for the draft has closed.

For sure...lots of time to solidify our QB position. Who knows...we could end up with Durant/Franklin/Davis yet,

Name them smart guy. I call BS.

According to Taylor Reed himself, he was added to our neg list in May of 2013, and then signed by the Bombers in October of 2013 and finished the year on our PR and was not re-signed by us.
You are right about Stewart, he came to us via Calgary.

Based on your pretty jaded attitude about Mack, I will take that as a victory for my argument. A few posts ago you were suggesting the cream of his crop to be guys like Dorzon or Doneff. Now he has moved up to 'decent" recruiter.

I like Flanders but he was recruited by BC. I guess I should explain that my definition of finding someone is when they haven't played elsewhere in the league first.

Terrence Jeffers Harris continued to be employed in the CFL and no one took a second look at Carr. I'm not sure I understand that. Must be something behind the scenes there because if I were a GM I would have taken a look at Carr at a reduced price. He never lived up to his contract in Edm/Riders....but in his defence he wasn't given much of opportunity either.

Sounds serious to me. I see nothing preposterous in the suggestion. Mack can find IMP talent as well as any scout in the CFL today. He would be a great hire in that role for MTL. Don't let him evaluate NIs, run a roster, negotiate contracts, and have him stick solely to iMP recruiting and you have a heck of a hire.

If Senior is indeed ranked top 30 OT then he will not likely get drafted but will almost definitely get some NFL looks. Every team in the NFL will look at an OT every year...at LEAST one. Pretty sure that Senior...unless there is something about him they really don't like (size/behavior) will be brought into someone's camp.

CFL.ca publishes the pending FA's and to the surprise of no one except Rider fans, James Franklin is not among them. Rider Stronson's already humiliatingly plummeting credibility takes another blow.

GCn20 got a reaction from DR. CFL in Walters' Priorities
Priority one...as has been priority one since Khari got too banged up to be effective...find a top notch CFL franchise QB. Amazing that no one has done that yet. The best we've had and continue to field is mediocre. James Franklin gives Walters a chance to make up for missing the boat on several very good QBs. Will he pursue that as doggedly as he should...probably not...and we will have to build an excellent team to prop up a mediocre QB in Nichols if we want to have any shot at a championship.
How does a team like Ottawa get a championship in 3 short years? Easy sign 2 franchise QBs. How does a team like Calgary manage to stay on top for so long....easy...replace a top notch franchise QB with a top notch franchise QB. How does Edmonton go from **** show to champions in two years....easy...sign Mike Reilly. This isn't rocket science and I am disappointed that the Bombers seem resigned to another year with an average at best QB.

This poll is historically a joke. The questions are leading, or do not provide an option to choose that reflects your opinion. For that reason I believe the poll is a joke.

GCn20 got a reaction from Eternal optimist in The Manny Show - Loffler was a hit
No it makes perfect sense. You just aren't understanding that hard contact football, you know the way it is supposed to be played, is now politically incorrect. We have the mamby pamby media, politicians, and alarmists running around telling us how a beautifully executed text book hit like Loffler's should be eliminated from the game. Mamby pambies.
I have little doubt that even though my opinion is correct from a football purist point of view, that many on here will strongly disagree with me and take issue with it. Why/ Not because they could give 2 figs about Arceneaux's melon....it's because the other night they sat down and watched the media proclaim it as barbarian and then flipped over to Netflix and watched that stupid Will Smith movie about it.
That my friend is a textbook definition of it not being PC.
