  1. Woodson????been there dun that,,,no thanx. I like the rest of the acquisitions though. Sounds like Sears is coming back. Walters says there in negotiations and should get it done.
  2. All over him in a BIG way. Wonder if he comes with his own food truck.
  3. I thought we had groomed Brink. Guess that didn't work out too well for Popp. I think Buono is the qb. guru in this league, and Popp, since Calvillo, not so much. Skelton could turn out to be as big a bust for them as Ted White. Skelton hmmmmm wonder if he's any relation to Red.
  4. I have always thought that Kane never really wanted to be here and holding on to him as long as we have, has hurt the team. Trade him and his fat contract. He has underperformed for that kind of dough and a trade would be better for everyone. Having said that, it's not easy to make trades at the best of times. You usually get burnt when other teams know you have a malcontent on the club AND the Jets faithful will definitely want something in return. The other option is to let him languish in the doghouse and be paying a player for no production. Can't see that happening for very much longer. I hope Chevy can find a new home for him. As far as this fan is concerned, see ya Kane.
  5. Heenan off the table????? Did we miss something cuz last I looked, with 10 days to go, he's still an fa. 'All practical intents' mean nothing unless you have a players signature on a contract. Holmes yes, but with regard to Heenan so far, that hasn't happened. The statement from O'Day that Heenan will go till Feb. 10th., doesn't sound like a sure thing he'll be in Regina. We shall soon find out.
  6. Well if your last line is correct don't tell Cvets. He frowns on that kind of thing and it could be called to the attention of the SPCA lol...Look I have my opinIon on the player.. you have yours...AND the knife cuts both ways when players leave an organization...There have been some damned hard knocks levelled at our team by some that have left...I'm sure Cory and all of us will all find our way..
  7. Pickins are getting slimmer..I wonder how far Taman is prepared to go with Heenan??
  8. He re-signed with the Bombers twice - he had 2 opportunities to leave between the time we drafted him and now and did not. Throttle back on the conspiracy theories. I guess you missed the little word IF reports are true. I'm not the one writing the bloody reports. Conspiracy...give me a break.?? It's there for you to read and you take it the way you want. Watson re-upped twice sure, but people change and so do circumstances. His latest comment about 'finally being with a 'winning' organization' (we'll see about that) says a lot. Couldn't make us a winner from the tub so things are going to be dif. We'll see. Well, conspiracy seemed more polite than lunacy, so I went with that one. Because I try to be polite. I realized the usage was incorrect, as a conspiracy requires more than one person. It was meant to be taken more figurative than literal. IF the reports he wanted out of here are true, then the conclusion you can draw is that he wanted out of here. as opposed to putting a big asterix by his name, or spending time thinking about Cory Watson in the tub - to each their own -, or insinuating he's faking/milking injuries, or implying he has a character issue. Putting IF in front of slander does not make it something else. Because, no offence, (insert something incredibly offensive here). See how that (doesn't) works? lots of bafflegab there lol...Look 'IF' is a little word with a big meaning...you use it in your context...I'll use it in mine...Inferring that someone would be a 'lunatic' for expressing their opinion is a tad denigrating ...Slander my aunt fanny...Make that one stand up in court...you lose..Someone said you like to be a little 'catty'...I'll go with that.. lol
  9. ...Who has the 'official' draft order...I'm confused like Mike....What are our pics.???? It's now 2, 11, 15, then nothing in the 3rd. Damn....I thought we were really going to load up. Guess we shouldn't be too greedy but it's been a long time since we could say our cupboards were full. 2, 11 and 15 should net us some excellent talent.
  10. ...Who has the 'official' draft order...I'm confused like Mike....What are our pics.????
  11. ....granted 'joining a winning org.' is a little different...Inserting the word 'finally' gives it a dif. connotation ...According to Pedersen he did say he was 'glad to be joining a winning org.' Guess he wasn't happy here , obviously, if you believe he requested a trade. Putting it a dif .way How long was he unhappy here, if that's the case and did it affect his play. One has to wonder.
  12. He re-signed with the Bombers twice - he had 2 opportunities to leave between the time we drafted him and now and did not. Throttle back on the conspiracy theories.

  13. IF the reports are true and Watson wanted out of here, it'll put a BIG asterisk beside his name for me, regarding his time here in the last little while. Makes me wonder about all the time he spent in the tub. Makes one play and is gonzo for a stretch. If that's the kind of player he is, glad he's with the riders.
  14. They'll be lucky to sign their own fas at present.
  15. Certainly Bomber fans wished Ian all the best but a certain part of them wanted him to remain here. I was one of those.Not a great day for Wild as far as the nfl goes BUT if nothing else shakes out down there...welcome back Ian...
  16. Watson just spent too much time on the sidelines. You could never count on him from game to game, and there was just too much cash tied up in him. Rider fans seemed to like this Bastien kid, although it was just potential they were talking about. I guess we will realize it now, potential that is. I also feel we will not go o line in the first round. Demski maybe??? Guess we'll find out in 12 days. C'mon over Mr. Heenan...like it.
  17. Wright looks like he'll be one to watch come tc. Solid hitter and looks to have a great motor. Looking forward to getting a first hand look at him.
  18. L.A. tried to deal him and we were approached. Don't know if we were that interested in a trade but picking him up on waivers might be an option for us, IF we're that interested. He might/could be an asset in a playoff run.
  19. So Foley is an Argonut once again. Probably doesn't mind the trade, although I don't think he's any better off. Going from the rabid fans in Regina and a lot of rah rah, to back playing in the ghostly silence of the 'Mall' called skydump. He might have preferred making his own choice by waiting till fa but I guess Taman schmoozed him into signing, so he could pull the pin on the trade. Such is the world of football sometimes.
  20. All they need to do is fit him with a banjo and he'll fit right in.
  21. Oh that would be so nice if the talks went completely south and he becomes available. I'm sure a lot of gms are watching this one with interest.
  22. Gonna miss those hard licks he handed out. He sure kept the oppositions offence honest. Some fans were saying he was a 'tweener' and wouldn't last long down there BUT a hard hitting guy like he is should position up somewhere in the nfl. Most likely special teams. Good luck to him and hope he makes lots of coin. IF he doesn't stick, the door is always wide open for him in the Peg.
  23. Totally expected for weeks now. I see Cortez is oc and qbs. coach and Khari has been shifted to receivers coach. Tedford is bringing in all kinds of new people it appears. New blood is always good I guess??
  24. Italics....thought I'd try something dif....And you're right Heenan is very human and a very good canuck o lineman. lol
  25. With regard to Heenan signing here...He works a farm in Sask. and is very family oriented. Moving one province over would be an advantage, other than living in Sask. itself. Seeing as Cal. will most likely not be in the running for an o lineman, we will be certainly a consideration. I think if Heenan doesn't make it in the nfl and Walters can come up with the right cash, I can see Ben being very interested in signing here. We shall see in about 19 days.
