"we just don’t want to spend that much time with assholes" - Mike O'Shea 

I think Streveler can be that guy. 
 

I think we make Collaros a decent offer. Not over the top, saving room for the OL, D and a good increase for Streveler.
Whatever verbal deal Collaros may have had with TO, may have changed after winning the lat 4 games without getting his bell rung and going into offseason with the GC win.
 
If not, I think we roll with Strevy and McGuire. McGuire look promising, but so does just about every other backup we've ever had. Strevy keeps learning and improves passing game, he could be very very good. It may be his time.
 
 I've watched new QBs like Evans, Adams etc run around, escape pressure and chuck the ball downfield for a big gain or TD. Unfortunately that doesn't happen when Nichols get's pressure. 
I like Nichols and I appreciate his contribution to the team so far. Emotions aside I think it's time to move on.

I don't see Walters doing that. What he (and others) have built so far with this organization seems based on integrity

The reputation of collusion and not making deals in good faith.
Hard enough to make trades. You don't make it easier ******* a team around.

What this season has proved is you can win if you spend you money on something other than QB. Put the money in the lines and have a QB that does not turn the ball over and you win a lot of games.

I've decided that I now like the trade for Collaros.  I'm giving this one a thumbs up! 

Maybe you can try growing a pair?

My Game Day,
Do not Shave , put on old lightning bolt logo T. (to be worn under Jersey later)
Pre-game - do not use  "Game Time" beer glass. Use any pre-game beer glass ( Draught beer from kegerator)
Game time: Put on Royal Blue Jersey, switch to 20oz "Game-Time" beer glass.
I have two identical "Game-Time" beer glasses. I may have mixed them up a few times during the season - my bad. I have been using the right one the past 3 weeks.

Watching the Calgary game at home with the family and, at one point, my daughter gets disgusted with the Bombers and takes off her jersey.  She folds it.  Sits it down on an end table in the living room, goes to cool off then comes back to watch the game.  We go on to win.  That jersey has sat .. untouched .. on a table in my living room the last two weeks.  My daughter intends to leave it there until after we win the Grey Cup on Sunday.

Here's something to note...
 
Every game that I've attended at McMahon where I have had at least 3 40 Creek's... the bombers have won.
Every game where I've attended at McMahon where I was "cautious" and had less.... we lost.
 
MULTIPLE 40 Creek's on sunday it is!!!!

I feel they are in our way and will get dealt with.
They have some pouty fucks like Banks on that team, so the implosion/meltdown factor in a game like this is high. 

Why is it we feel the need to single out a player for ineffectiveness when we really don’t know what that player was required to do?
Especially when our Defence played so well and held the other team to 13 points..and no TDs.
That sounds like a Team Defence to me..with everybody contributing.
13 points - no TDs

Stamps and rider fans are dumping their tickets. I’ve already got half a dozen texts from stamps and rider fans begging me to buy their tickets. But I’m going to enjoy it at home in front of the fireplace a nd drinking my booze.

What's truly impressive about Strev's running is doing it with Northern Skunk's head jammed that far up there....

Nichols is a good QB..cerebral and efficient but not other wordly. On a good team with a nice compliment of weapons he is excellent and a guy who will win you more than you lose, but he is what he is...won't become anything more now and isn't a guy who will consistently out a team on his back and carry/will/inspire them to win by himself. He may make the odd spectacular play but it will be rare and it's not in his DNA
Strev is a different beast at this time...smart and young/inexperienced and learning the game...He is fire and determination and a outright beast who can..and has taken a game in his hands and just powered his way to succeed at any cost, its more so one dimensional to this point, but is leaps and bounds better than when he first got here...he can and has done he spectacular and sticking with him over the longterm will do it over and over and he WILL start doing it in the air...for all the detractors out there he is not just a runner....he's just been more of a runner while here than a passer, and thats due to his limited experience as a starting qb at any level.
The special thing with Strev is the team already has his respect and see's his commitment to the team and what he will do...and they will go through a wall for him, on both sides of the ball because they see him doing it on every play..and that is huge..he has that unique ability to raise the level of play of everyone..defense included and players have already said as much. 

Collaros throws have more zip on them. He throws a better medium and a better deep ball. He's way more mobile than Nichols. There's no way Nichols even throws the ball to Adams in the last season game, let alone gets it there accurately. Collaros doesn't rely on the Harris dump pass anywhere near as often as Nichols does which makes defences have to cover everyone. Collaros did it against Calgary twice, one of which was a playoff game. Nichols mostly played against the bottom 3 teams in the league. 
Stats aren't going to tell the story because both QB's played in the PLAP offence. 
 

I think adding "future considerations" also means negotiating in good faith and it doesn't always strictly follow obvious rules, in this case whether the Bombers sign Collaros before or after the F.A. door opens, if they want to maintain good relations with Pinball they will have to pay for Zach's full agreed upon value and won't try to cheat him on a technicality.  As business deals go, Walters definitely owes Pinball one, he saved their butts.
