The future looks bright Jets fans ...
gbill2004 replied to IC Khari's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Yep, he does have value at forward. But I doubt he'd want to play there long-term. -

If it's any indicator, Buff played 21 minutes in game 3 and Myers played 26 minutes. -
No offence but that discriminates against quite a few of us who are anti-twitterites. Don't worry, I'm not offended

Buff is a massive liability. He'll get one goal but cost the Jets two. He needs to go. Jets are much better without him. Buff getting suspended was best thing to happen to the Jets; Buff doesn't get suspended, Jets don't make the playoffs. -
Lots of video on the Bombers Twitter account.

Bombers cut Brett Carter when they signed Goodrich. I wonder if he gets an invite to TC now? -

No he wouldn't have started this year, but he was considered equivalent to a first round draft pick. -
Bombers' Mini-Camp Roster Revealed as Training Kicks Off in Sunny Florida By: Paul Wiecek BRADENTON, FL. - Winnipeg Rifles receiver Kurt Goodrich lasted all of one practice at IMG Academy on Sunday before abruptly telling Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea he was quitting the team. "He came to me after the first practice and he just said his heart wasn't in it anymore," O'Shea said Sunday following the conclusion of Day 1 of the Bombers' annual spring mini-camp. "It happens... He just said he wasn't going to be with us anymore," said O'Shea. "I just patted him on the shoulder and appreciated his honesty." Asked if Goodrich looked outclassed Sunday morning, O'Shea said he saw quite the opposite. "He looks good. He looked like he got open." Goodrich was one of four Canadian receivers the Bombers brought to mini-camp and he was among 52 players on the field - as well as one current and one former star on the sidelines - as the Bombers kicked off their annual three-day mini-camp under a blazing hot Florida sun Sunday morning. The mini-camp roster, which the team had kept a closely guarded secret until Sunday morning, includes six quarterbacks, three running backs, 15 receivers, three offensive linemen, five defensive linemen, six linebackers and 14 defensive backs. O'Shea singled out a couple of players for praise after Sunday's two sessions, naming linebacker TraShaun Nixon (New Mexico State) and defensive back Johnny Adams (Michigan State) as players that stood out for him. "What really stood out for me (about Adams) was he was stealing reps from everybody he could," said O'Shea. "He showed up at corner... and then he's at halfback and then he's across the field stealing reps from somebody else. And the guy had two interceptions. "He was just out there making plays and making the most of his opportunity...." http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/bombers/Bombers-mini-camp-roster-revealed-as-training-kicks-off-in-sunny-Florida-300590731.html?device=mobile

But will they want him then? Serious questions on his character now and whether he could be trusted if he decided he wanted to play again. -

Comparing rec league sports to pro sports hey??....Alright.... I was replying to Bigblueteammates question, that was since deleted. The question was related to "playing sports". If the initial question/post wasn't deleted, you'd see I'm not comparing rec/high school sports to pro sports. Interesting how you deleted my previous post explaining my response yet you left yours here... -

gbill2004 replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I've played organized sports, and I get it when your heart isn't in it anymore. It's just strange that 2 months ago, his lifelong "dream came true" by signing with the Bombers. And two months later he's done with football. Sounds like a confused young man. -

Interesting. Good thing he left then. No need for a bad attitude pretty boy who's not prepared to put in the work. Did he expect to be annointed the number one WR on the first day of camp? -

This does make taking Demski at 2 a little more possible, but I still think Walters goes OL with the first pick. -

Wow. This is a huge surprise. Is he having some personal issues?? Came out of nowhere...he was pumped when he signed with the Bombers a couple months ago. Brett Carter getting a call from Walters today? -

@DarrinBauming: Winnipegger and @WinnipegRifles product Kurt Goodrich told Mike O'Shea this morning "his heart wasn't in it," and has left camp. #Bombers @BobIrvingCJOB: Kurt Goodrich leaves bomber mini camp saying he doesn't want to play football anymore @PentonKirk: #Bombers receiver Kurt Goodrich calls it a career after one practice today in Florida, saying his heart's not in it. -
Also interesting to see Morley starting at RG and Jace Daniels starting at RT. Maybe waiting to see how draft goes before releasing Morley, assuming we take and sign an OL in the first round. Looks like the plan is to have an all import defensive line. Looks like a full competition at MLB. Lots of competition on the DL and we might be relying on a new guy to start at WR. I've heard Tim Cronk is a good reliable long snapper.
