  1. Tough to judge him when his franchise QB has gone down early in both his seasons at the helm. At least now we have a competent back-up. Gotta give him next year for sure...

     

    You remember that Willy did play in 17 games last year right?  I'm not on the fire Oshea bandwagon (yet) but we can't use that excuse for last year as Willy did not go down early.  This year, certainly we can.

  2. Except of course for the fact that... the organization has changed quite a lot in the last couple years.. Miller,Walters... these guys weren't the guys who hired and fired 2 coaches after extending them. Eventually, you need to stop looking in to the past and start living in the now or looking to the future. What a different president and GM did 5 years ago, is not the same thing they would do now. Stability is important to this team and we haven't had that in forever. Extend Oshea and can MB and move on. 

     

    That's really a useless argument at this point because they haven't had the chance to yet!  They've only hired 1 HC so far.

  3. It would be very unwise/risky financially to extend Oshea.  Especially since we haven't shown enough if any improvement over last season.  Certainly not record wise obviously/  That would be repeating the mistakes of the past.

    If we extend Oshea, before our team shows "REAL" improvement.  (IE: wins) then he hasn't earned an extension!  At all!  Bring him back next year but no extension for anything past 2016 until he proves his worth.

    Brohm has been in pro leagues for what 8 years? This is LH's 2nd year. He deserves a break because he's still wet behind the ears and there's still a good chance he gets it together.

    Not to mention the fact this city gave Westwood a break for pretty much of the 2000s and losing the 2001 Grey Cup. He was freaking awful from 2001 to when he was forced out.

     

     

    All hail Mad Doug Berry for that!  Even though Kelly brought him back the next year.  Only as a punter mind you.  Troy was a good punter.

  5. Side note about Grey Cup Week: I'm a fan of the announcement that the 3 "Manitoban" craft brewers will be the official beer outside of the game itself, to which Labatt has exclusive rights. But all the socials and different events will feature Fort Garry, Half Pints and Farmery, which is only partly Manitoban. As a big craft beer junkie, this is fantastic news.

    Just had a couple Farmery's last night.  Very good beer.

  6. I'll be watching the Jets game on TV, so our season tickets will be empty.

    I have tickets to both.  Can't even give my Bomber tickets away. (literally)

    Never thought I'd be choosing to go to a Jets preseason game over a Bomber stretch run game but that's how put off I and many others are with our team. 

     

    The bombers just keep taking my money and I'm just that stupid, naïve, whatever to keep giving it to them.  Probably not after this year though.

    Step 1 to future bomber success!  Stop hiring Rookie Head Coaches and GM's.  The last time we hired a good experienced HC was Big ol Dave Ritchie.  Loved that guy.

  7.  

    Didnt MOS admit the team looked unprepared for the first 31 minutes of the game?  Who's responsible for that?  I dont know about practice.  But if the players are unprepared who's ass should be on the line for that?

     

    The players didn't show up...by their own admission...for the game. That is most definitely on them. It's gut check time in that dressing room. The leaders need to lead, and everyone needs to show up looking a lot less like they spent the night before in a Montreal strip club.

     

     

    IMO it was "gut check" time when Drew went down.  And we've failed since that check.

  8. Guelph wants Walters to be their athletic director.

     

    That's probably a job that he'd really consider.  How could he not?  Here's his two options, stay in wpg where he is under pretty big pressure and could get fired after a terrible season..(just look how often we clean house) or go to his CIS college and be the athletic director and probably have that job until he's ready to retire.  Worth considering

  9.  

     

    It can't be that hard to find a receiver from the NFL cuts.

    You'd think so, wouldn't you?

    The waggle really tends to make some receivers have a problem with coming here. Coupled with our inability to bring quality guys down here.. But cant blame too many players for taking a pass if weve showed them our QB play and OC's highlight picture. Cant be a reel, not enough to make one lol..

    I am kinda shocked Danny Mac cant find a few gems tho. Figured as a QB he would have an eye for talented enough guys to catch passes here..

     

     

    I'd say disappointed in Danny Mac.  Nothing should really shock us with this organization anymore.

  10. Moore was awesome last Satruday before he got hurt. Darvin Adams has to be told that if he doesn't show up on every play,he's gonzo and maybe Denmark is just tired of carrying the whole receiving corps on his back. Adams looked really, really good in that one game,and I thought we had found a receiver who would be our other deep threat.

    Only Denmark has never carried our receiving core on his back. 

  11. As dissapointed as I am in the performance of the team, you'd usually like to give a staff 3 years before cleaning the slate.  But we need to be showing improvement, not getting blown out.  I'd rather not see a house cleaning, but if we do I sure as S**t hope that we don't hire another Rookie HC.
