Bailey 'could' return BUT I think we'll only re-sign him at a bargain basement price....He deserves to be paid .....Could we squeeze him in ???would be tough...Now if Zack would shave a bit of his contract like Kelly in T.O. did, we might get it done......should/could we expect it.....probably not....Kind of leaves Bailey hanging in the breeze..I feel for the guy especially knowing how much he loves his team mates and the City.....tough call...very tough

........I'd say Faj will be quite skeletal waiting for a reply....but keep the dream alive is his motto lol -
I can remember vividly the clash between Bud and James and it was mostly over Gerry's going to the Leafs during hockey season...Bud did not want one of his star players getting nic'd in another sport ...especially when they were in the Cup years, hence the disagreement ....I don't know that it was ever bitter, because James was always given the green light to go to the Leafs....but not with Grant's blessing....The contract squabbles I know nothing about, but there were always players who thought they were worth more then.....much like today

I've sat with veterans in the legion many times, and I assure you they would take a lot lighter stance on my comments about a 'football player'/ navy seal and his short tenure here, than you are...I do not kid about the military service of any veteran .....get that straight....As a football player , I think he's fair game in the public venue....Your crusade for the guy is wonderful but I'm sorry, I'm not going to retract or apologize for my comments and my 'lighten up' statement still stands.... AND as a side note ....quoting a guy like 'lyinguy' who called us a bunch of 'aholes' doesn't get you any points around here

Get serious...As a kid of a second world war vet, who put his life on the line for this country , I take umbridge with the insult....I realize what sacrifices are made by these men....I could call you out on the 'assholes' comment but that would just be feeding your bullshit....AND for cripes sake lighten up....I'm sure the seal would see some levity in my comments ...unlike you who is obviously against any levity on this board
-
yup....BOLO is a loss ....He wasn't getting the game time he needed to advance so off he goes....Should have made a deal for him and obtained Mason Bennett ....coulda/ shoulda....counts for nothing and gm's have their own agenda that most don't vary too much from
-
AND now it looks like Hardrick will finish his career on an abysmal o line....and has gone full circle
-
News on Kongbo is slim to none.....I hope we move on him soon....Could be he's headed south again
-
That's a double gut punch hearing both Ploen and Gerry have passed...Ol timers taking a hit hearing their hometown heros are gone.....James was something else in his day....all around athlete ....football, hockey and baseball.....Condolences to his family
-
kinda throws cold water on that when Walters says he won't be back....Might have a totally different plan
-
Miller will have his work cut out for him...BUT if anyone can get it done he can....Hansen when he was healthy was one of the best ....he will be replaced....Haven't heard anything on Bailey or BOLO.....Castillo is close and should be back ....Grey is interesting ....thought he'd be re-signed by now or picked up by someone...Lot's of fa's still out there
-
Ken Ploen and Bud Grant will always be synonymous for me growing up....They built the Bombers into one of the geatest teams that Winnipeg has ever seen....I will always remember the Cup wins, and the successful seasons Kenny quarterbacked us to, in the sixties...He was a class act and one of the greatest ever to grace Wpg. with his football acumen and his off field demeanour.....A part of this city's football lore that won't be forgotten R.I.P Kenny and condolences to his family

Ah yes the 13th man......What a great turn of events that I still luv today.....Can still see Lapo losing it in the booth ....He got the hell out of there after that faux pas of all time in the CFL
-
I agree with that move
-
was he really the same after the injury he had last year.....????...He never really seemed to get untracked for us in 23' BUT the argo's must have seen something??
-
I agree with that move.....The kinda move we shoulda/coulda made with the lemonater last year, that worked out well for the Als.

The standard of education down south is ...let's say wanting...I don't now how some of those guys coming out of college, would make it any other way in the working world, besides football....It's bewildering to know that some of them who can't even spell 'is' , have to look for a life after professional sport in some capacity...and if you're not a star making big bucks, that's scary -
Man o man....If Walker thought he was going to go to some kind of nirvana in Cal., after playing in that stadium a few times , he just had some kind of rude awakening....Add Prukop to the qb. stable and it was 'I'm outta here'.......

Cruickshank looks promising....speedy and elusive little bugger
