Show me on the doll where Mike O’Shea hurt you. 

Bombers signed defensive tackle Kenneth Randall today. He was cut in training camp in 2022. Interesting that they would bring him back.

There is no long in the tooth in Bomberland we may just go straight to dentures...😆😉

Not worth a 1st and a conditional 3rd round pick. Will be closer to Hayes than to Stastny. At least people will stop crying for a trade, so that's a positive.

Nope has done jack **** for their pp,no where near adding Stastny. More like when we added Hayes..soft player, cap hit my ass, brutal trade imo....hope I'm wrong.

Yuck. 
 

Yeah fits Bettman 's vision of another add to get National American TV as well,can't blame em ,it's all about the bucks.

4 more years!

I, for one, have no problems with how O'Day GMs the Riders. 

Miller made 95k last year. 
He did get more, but not nearly enough. Walker was seldom off the field as well. I think Lawson is going to break out in a big way this year 

I wasn’t arguing it’s a bad deal. I was making a point that people get worked up about these high numbers but they really have no idea just how many guys on our team are making those kind of dollars (way more than they think)

Bombers have signed this guy, according to the CFL transactions page:

I can't think of a single instance where a championship calibre team reset the market for any position. There is a reason for that, it's a desperation move. If BO wants to reset the market it will almost certainly have to be on a crap team. If the Bombers pay a RB 200k I would be shocked and quite disappointed frankly.

Carey is a good back likely, has decent wear left, but he’s gonna be 32 this year. He probably gets a contract, but I doubt he goes into camp as a no1 or gets much money. 
 It was talked about with Dru but not with Brady. The cfl is pretty set on starting RBs right now. It might really hurt Brady’s draw in free agency. The best shot he has is if some team decides to flip ratio despite having a really good back. Toronto maybe?

Awww man, one of our better players on D, back in the day.

Barriere looks to be the spittin' image of V.A., pocket passer with good mobility and a good arm, not much for rolling out or throwing on the run though, he likes to be planted.  He has the talent but whether he can learn to adjust his game or read the field at all remains to be seen, it only took V.A. 6 years to establish himself as a starter.
 

Longtime Stamps Left tackle Bruce Covernton passed away two days ago in his sleep. Apparently, he had a massive heart attack. He was only 57 years of age.
I knew Bruce as he coached with me at Centennial High School in 2008 here in Calgary.
Covernton was born in Morris, MB. After Covernton played HS football in Winnipeg, he attended Weber State & then was drafted by the Stamps in 1992. He played LT for them from 1992-98. Covernton was named the CFL's Western Division ROTY. Covernton was a CFL West Division All Star in 1993 & 94. He was named an All Canadian at Left Tackle in 1994. He was a two time Grey Cup Champion in 1992 & 98.
Upon retiring, Bruce took up permanent residence here. He was an entrepreneur & was active in local charities in Calgary. He founded a company that imported coffee from Columbia. Then Covernton bought a personnel staffing company & it was very successful. He was quite a character & will be missed.

You probably missed a whole episode of Matlock typing that all up, you old fart
 
(just kidding)

If Dalton wants to “reset the market” he can leave too. 
 
 

When you say “people” are you talking about me? 
 
If so, then you are disregarding the fact I said that I don’t blame him for wanting to get paid, that he is a great player, and would love to have him back. 
 
However, a giant RB contract doesn’t make sense for our team IMO. He can go reset the market somewhere else. That is essentially “I want free agent money” talk in the CFL. Certainly for a RB. But this has been explained many times now. 
You’re talking about the best WR in the league who has led the league in receiving  TDs  basically since he stepped on the field. We aren’t talking “really good”. We are talking all time level good. 
 
I know you want to make what I am saying into something more dramatic. I don’t value Oliveira as much as Schoen for the reasons that have been mentioned many many times about the position he plays. That is what it boils down to.  
The same way I would have loved to have Desjarlais back - but not at that price. Good for him, moving on. 

 
 

yes end of discussion. 
 
I was leading the Brady for MOP parade before most people were but ain't no way a running back like him is worth re-setting the market. 

Yup, that's what got me into the "pfft, he can walk " camp.
Shades of this chucklefuck.
