  1. Good luck. Dude bleeds blue n gold still so hope he does well. I think he has a legit chance to make it. He wants it that's for sure.
  2. More like signing bonus. I think on July 1st of every year Ladd will get most of his money. So let's just say it's 5 million. He'd probably get 4 on July 1st. I think that's how his deal works
  3. Andrew Harris
  4. 5.5 is my guess. His fancy stats suggest he's better than people give him credit for.
  5. I have no issues with who they picked so far. I was honestly expecting it to be mostly WHA and 1980s and that's fine with me.
  6. Why no Domi? Cuz he had a 16 year career and only 2 years plus 9 games were spent in Winnipeg. He's a leaf alumni not a Jet. Eddie O? Besides working for NBC and probably covering other games that night.... what is he remembered for? His little speech I guess... he did put up some good numbers but it's pretty obvious that outside of Teemu Teppo and Essensa and King they are pretty much sticking to honoring the WHA and 80s years. The 90 years? Not so much. Can't blame them cuz the 90s is when they left. You also can't assume that Hawerchuk didn't ask some of these guys. Maybe he did and they said no thanks. Anyone wondering why Tkachuk isn't playing tho.... man... lol. You see gary lawless recently? Well Keith could pass as his twin. Morbidly obese is a nice way of putting things
  7. And it will be 6 or 7 years. No bridge deal.
  8. I'm not old enough to remember but I've heard the name Mario Marois mentioned quite a bit in my lifetime. Parents and hockey coaches mentioned that name lots. Guess it's kind of a catchy name.
  9. Trouba will sign but it won't be until last minute. That's how his agent works. Wheeler was on 1290 on Friday and was asked about Trouba. Said Jacob was at his house for a BBQ when the draft lottery was on. Said when it was figured out the Jets had a guaranteed top 3 pick Trouba was pretty excited about it. This notion trouba wants out is pure horse crap spewed by a Toronto based media who just don't get it. This is the same Toronto based media who thought Stamkos signing with the leafs was a guarantee
  10. Mike ford is 64 years old. Played 2 seasons with the Jets in the WCHL and parts of 4 seasons with the Jets in the WHA. Drafted by the red wings... 8th round 1972 draft. Not awful WHA numbers tho. Not sure who he is tho. That's just a quick Google search.
  11. Women have won all medals so far
  12. Is Monahan Goudreau ristolainen Ceci on the way out of Calgary Buffalo and Ottawa?
  13. Baseless speculation from a week ago
  14. I don't think it's like that at all, I actually think theres 1 group who wants to get rid of willy so badly that they really don't have any clue what they are talking about and would be the first to be complaining when Nichols gets hurt or struggles and we are forced to play Davis. Then theres the other group, who tend to see the big picture a bit more, who perhaps aren't fooled by what Nichols is doing because they have seen it before, and realize that despite what a couple people say, Willy will see the field again and we will need Willy eventually. Perhaps sitting right now is best for him, he's obviously got some mental hurdles to figure out, but... gonna need him eventually to come in and when he does, cuz it is a when he does, not an if, it's when cuz Nichols is not this saviour that some people are making him out to be, Then we will see what happens. Nobody is pretending that Drew Willy is the man, or some god, everyone to a man or woman, has agreed that he has struggled this year BIG TIME. I see nobody on here saying he hasn't. I actually think, i'll take that line there and change a name up.... They're so convinced that Nichols is the man, and of his 2 games of hype and ignore the rest of his career that they want to get rid of Willy because they ignore the flaws in Nichols. This isn't about Drew Willy vs Matt Nichols.. it never has been, never will be, anyone who thinks it is... they are out to lunch. Stop making it about Nichols vs Willy.. It's not, Pretty sure most people here are bomber fans, i say most cuz i read comments about wanting to get rid of Willy and think, well, maybe not all people are fans... because the bottom line is in the CFL, you need 2 QB's.... despite what some say, we have 2 good enough QB's right now in Willy and Nichols... Nichols and Willy, whatever.... No freaking way you get rid of Willy cuz Nichols has had 2 good games, just like No way you'd get rid of Nichols if Willy does the same when he's back starting. What's frustrating to read? People basically hoping Willy fails...That's frustrating to read. Cuz Bottom line, if you want a player to fail, I'm not sure how much of a fan you are in the first place.... Like i said, I'm pretty sure most people are bomber fans, and as bomber fans, don't we all jsut want the team to win? Does it matter if it's Nichols or Willy who is the QB? It shouldn't, but apparently to some, it does matter.
  15. I like McDuffie but I think you should be able to find a returner who can contribute a bit more on O or D. McDuffie is ok on O but... he's nothing special and never will be. Surely you could find a guy who can return kicks and punts and can contribute a bit more on either O or D. I like McDuffie but if I'm the bombers I'm certainly trying to find a guy who can replace him.
  16. Luck? Maybe if you win a game on a 50 yard fg with no time left. That's luck. But winning by a score of 37 to 11? Yeah that's not luck.... that's an ass wooping. Bombers were the better team vs Hamilton and have been both times they played them this year. If anything I'd say Hamilton is kind of lucky cuz while 37 11 is an ass wooping.... it could have been way more. We beat them earlier 28 24... luck? Nope. Should have been another ass wooping. Wonder if Ottawa fans right now think they were lucky to beat edmonton tonight cuz hey... Reilly threw a pick that lead to the winning Ottawa fg. Probably not tho.... because bottom line... they won. That's all that matters Not sure why you'd say this game was luck... I mean we won by 26 points... no luck required. Why can't you just be happy we won the game? Cuz man winning by 26 and saying we were lucky makes me think you be trolling people bro
  17. And that's the end of Reilly and his 300 yard streak. Bombers in 3rd place in the west. Whaaaaatttt
  18. I thought the red zone was the 20 yard line
  19. And not everyone wants to play in these games either.
  20. Eddie and Tie weren't really that big of players here. Eddie works for NBC hockey. No Housley and the others who are coaching couldn't play cuz their teams probably play that night. In the big picture that game is meaningless. I mean it's cool and all but it's meaningless. The Nashville game... Ducks....Rangers etc games are more important than a heritage old timers hockey game This game only really means something to the fans. And obviously some players but you aren't gonna skip your day job to come play a meaningless old timers game. Bottom line is. ... not everyone can participate in this game
  21. If you think about it they are paying respect to their WHA and early 80s days. Yeah Teemu Teppo and Essensa are there but really it's about the WHA and the 80s. It's an ok roster for sure. It's not as star studded as the oilers roster but the bottom line is.... no roster was as star studded as that roster. Domi had a cup of coffee here. Housley is coaching. So Is Arniel Carlyle and McLean. Eddie O ? Sure but he also works for NBC doesn't he? The reality is.... because they left for 20 years really.... our history really doesn't consist of that many players. No ryan Smyth who just recently retired for the Jets. Zhamnov and Tkachuk I bet were never options. I bet Khabibulin wasn't either. They have their 90s star with Teemu pretty much. I think a guy like Rick Tabarachi or Tim Chevelday would have received a call as goalies but maybe they feel goalie bob is enough
  22. Jerseys Look Good, Jets heritage classic roster looks like it's gonna get it's ass handed to them tho.
  23. Ticats were to busy changing in to their pajamas by the end of the game.
  24. I think you'd have to give it to the 18000 or so fans who stuck around for 2.5 hours really during the delay. I think those people definitely deserve some huge props... 18000 or so but.. on TV, it sounded like way more. a very loud 18,000. Probably a very drunk and very full 18,000 but still... i'd imagine the bathrooms got quite the workout last night... But as for the on field stuff 1. Special Teams - I can't really single anyone out in particular, D Jones maybe? Kyle Knox? What speed on that guy.. WOW... but the unit as a whole were very very good 2. Fogg- Dude is cousins with Brandon Banks, and seems to be almost as dangerous as Banks is on returns 3. Thomas "No Pickles or " Mayo. - Who expected that? Kid with the funky hair had himself a game.
  25. Lol. Wouldn't care. The 20 month old went to sleep at 1030, she watched about 20 minutes of the game with me lol and then went up to bed with her mother lol.
