I'm with you on this from a fan perspective. I'm also not sure how I should feel on what Chevy said here: 'He noted the Jets have given up some draft picks in the past few years and are “paying a little bit of a price for that right now.” I do though agree with what Chevy said here: “But if you're a true fan of any team, the ups and the downs and the celebrations and the heartbreaks are all part of fandom.”

I know but why? Different direction, what does that even mean?

Speaking of that I heard McKenna currently makes approx $700,000 dollars playing for Penn State.

When SC hits wide left, the last photo here should go up on the jumbotron. Lol.

Yup not even close. Imagine him with an dominating Oline? When he's in the zone, everyone else around him becomes better.

Gross if that's true.

I’m assuming it’s been posted here but does anyone know the factual story of why he isn’t with TSN anymore? Budget cuts, other?

Plus BO saves puppies. Puppies. Okay i’ll let the adults get back to talking even though we all should know BO is, to date, THE best all around best RB in the league hands down.

Yes but we don’t use that word, it’s reserved for the Riders and others as appropriate. For us we use terms like ‘needs improvement’ and such.

We have an elite core so I’m hoping it’s an ongoing re-tool to get us back to the top 1/3 of the league and not a complete rebuild where you never know how long it will be when it pays off e.g the Sharks

A big thank you to the mods for continuing to keep this site humming along. It’s our great escape and its importance can’t be underestimated. Win or lose we are lifetime Jet and Bomber hardcore fans. No second favorites. ps Riders suck

Well time to go 41-1-0.

Bédard not being chosen maybe due to his health makes sense but 55 who is a first line dominator in the best league in the world makes me think someone’s personal opinion is trumping logic.

No one is giving up that I see, maybe the fair weather fans, but I think it’s a reasonable expectation that our team has high expectations every year and using this year as an example, if things aren’t working, what’s happening to correct the situation?

I agree there’s not much more he can demonstrate that he belongs in this elite group. I’m wondering now is it have to do with certain people perspectives on his non physical attributes?

Yikes. Who takes the lions share of blame here? Players, coaches, GM? Or all share equal blame? Are they throwing in the white towel on the season? So many questions very few answers. Oh right to buffer our frustration, we are feel fortunate we have a NHL team, bring down any high expectations we have of this team while continuing to hand over our money on swag and such. I forgot. Happy New Year!

Thanks Debbie, you should be a motivational speaker.

Maybe all these contracts are good for the CFL that attract more talent needing to raise the salary cap that bring more bums to the seats that increase swag sales that attract more corporate support etc etc? I’m in a festive mood.

I didn’t read the article. Is Chevy fed up as well? If so what’s he going to do about it other than say it’s within them to correct this? How long does he wait to see if they correct this before making changes or does he remain status quo and trot out his previous accomplishments? How high is his expectations at this point of the current season?

Again for all the Jake hater accusers, we love what JT has brought to this club, players and coaches love him, but it's also selfish with struggles of self awareness on the part of JT and MOS to even remotely think that trotting out JT puts us in the best position for team success. Player over team, not good.

Sports wise, my biggest irritant with him was how he straight armed us fans. Sorry that’s not how a team representing a province works. It was just the oddest and most bizarre thing to do.

Man it’s sometimes suffocating being a lifetime loyal Jet fan. 2027 is our year!

What was NN thinking? Did he forget which side of the blue line he needed to be on? Pretty much sums up our season so far.

Yup it will be a half a dozen one percenters sitting in their boxes with a few of their other one percenter ‘friends’ sitting in their luxury boxes in an empty arena while us minions sit at home yelling at the tv that we can hardly afford. Thanks for coming to my motivational speech.
