At last- something to cheer for, even id it's a tiny thing.

In a (barely)related story, the voice actress of Marge Simpson died today.

Thanks for the clarification about the Walters-O'Shea relationship/power structure. If Walters is unable to replace his head coach that he is in overt conflict with and who has been serving his personal agenda ather than the wellfare of the team, that would exonerate Walters but places him in a very untenable position. I thought of Miller as a hard-nosed results-oriented person but from this report, that does not seem to be the case. That has to change or we will be repeating this discussion next year.

Jake Thomas????

Thr off-season changes looked hopeful on paper, apart from Fly leaving for a massive pay raise,but it hasn't turned out that way at all. I think Nyquist is in tonight. No, he is not.

And here we go again.

I think Arniel is down to desperate measures. Everything he (and other coaches before him) has not worked and unless something improves and soon, the playoffs will disappear over the horizon.

What's to lose?

Maybe he can play drawback.

With the O-line he had, he was fortunate to get back to the line of scrimmage.

The video highlights were not great cinematically, but a) he is built like a refridgerator b) he has explosive power and c) those offensive linemen he was up against were trash.

This signing ought to silence fans who said the team was too old.

If O'Shea didn't think of him first, it ain't gonna happen. Besides, if 2026 unfolds as likely, Khari would be a prime candidate to replace him.

Reported that Elgersma is working out today for SF 49ers

As crappy as this was, Younger had a pathetic D-line and linebackers, so I think he ought to be given a mulligan for 2025. What self-respecting OC would want to come to the Bombers with O'Shea's favouritism and mule-headedness undercutting the decisions?

Goodbye Eli?

It's a passive-aggrressive way of responding to forced change to show who's really in change/

Disasterous status for both seasons.

Perhaps so, but the fates of Thomas and Kolankowski are inextricably entwined with the fate of the 2026 Bombers and fan confidence, not to mention game attendance, so it is stil a live grenade.

The success rates in the US penal system are very low. The longer people are incarcerated, the more their sense of social connection, like skills and integration detreiorate and more "normal" becomes warped. In Sweden, Norway and Holland, they are closing jails as a result of emphasizing rehabilitiation rather than punishment. It takes a shift in the justice system but it pays off in financial as well as societal ways.

I suggest that Kolankowski is an even biggesr liabiity. Thomas just gives up yardage., but Kolankowski gives up free runs at our QBs.

That would depend on your definition of justice. I have had some experience with the American penal/justice system and can tell you that there is very little attempt at rehabilitation- only incarceration in an often brutal system. Their recidivism rate is the highest of any western industiralized country despite having the longest incarceration rates. Most American jails are privately owned and run and rehab programs are detriments to the bottom line- profits. The longer someone is in jail, the greater the likelihood they will re-offend.
