bearpants reacted to Mike in Winnipeg Outdoor Heritage Classic game could be postponed
Either way, the reality is that the Jets will win the battle in the public court if they go toe to toe with the Bombers. The Bombers could be doing this for ALL of the right reasons, but people won't care.

bearpants reacted to mbrg in [Blue Bomber Talk] Early thoughts on 2015 CFL Draft
It is my preference to formulate strongly-held opinions with as little real information as possible, including who the Bombers ABSOLUTELY WITHOUT EXCEPTION MUST DRAFT AT NUMBER TWO OR THEY ARE RUINING THE FRANCHISE!!! (trademark pending), and will vehemently shout down anyone who offers an opinion contrary to mine, so if you don't mind, your so-called "knowlege" has no place here.
Harumph.

bearpants got a reaction from Fred C Dobbs in If you were the GM...
I feel like getting Zach Anderson back in a Ritchie Hall defense (assuming he signs) will be like adding a dominant D-lineman in FA... He has potential to be one of the best DTs in the league...

bearpants reacted to mbrg in [Blue Bomber Talk] Grading, Analysing, and Re-Drafting the 2011 CFL Draft
Certainly an interesting read, and I liked the format he used for grades. Although based on the grade definitions he gave I think Volny and Ettiene are 2's rather than 1's, but that's largely inconsequential.
One thing I think is inaccurate is the assertion that Volny doesn't play much special teams, drawn from the fact that he has only 5 ST tackles in his career. There are 6 different special teams units. Only 2 of those 6 commonly involve tackling. Although I don't watch for Volny every time special teams steps on the field, I know he is a fixture on the front line of our kickoff returns, and am fairly certain he is on the field for all punt returns as well.
And I would be curious to know the source of his assertion that Mack drafted Ettiene at the behest of LaPolice. I don't dispute it, but if it's just something that's been out there for a while, I must have missed it.

Former teammates Willy and Picard are now here. The plot does thicken.
Anyone know a Winnipeg girl who's willing to flirt with Heenan online for the next 2 months?

bearpants got a reaction from MOBomberFan in Ian Wild has NFL contract in hand
I don't think anyone is suggesting he's completely irreplaceable... just that he's a very good player and we would prefer to see him in blue and gold... best of luck to him in the NFL...

Richie Hall doesn't get the respect he deserves. Never has, never will.
Only reason he was let go was because Chamblin had to save face somehow.

bearpants reacted to Mike in Mike Benevides Fired
Can we just call a spade a spade and admit this really just boils down to your trademark impatience? It's the holiday season so news is going to be at a standstill and if the media reports are accurate, we've already met with Claybrooks, Benevides, Hall and possibly Barron Miles. Hell, we were meeting with candidates before we even made the firing official.
It's not as if it's as simple as interviewing the guy to find out if he's interested. This is just an educated guess, but I would imagine O'Shea wants to know what a potential candidate would plan to run scheme-wise, how he assesses our current defensive personnel, how he feels about our ratio flexibility, how he views the free agent pool, how he assessed last year's defense, what his thoughts are as far as assistants go, what his practices would be like, how he likes to handle players, how he is on the whiteboard and the list goes on. Then after they compile all of that information, they have to go back and see if it fits with the current mantra within our staff.
You can't learn all that from bumping into a guy on a road trip.
