Don't disagree but unfortunately it appears that Lapo will be back for 2020. 

for all the people who are just ******* lunatics over the course of a season and can't handle the roller coaster that every single season will always be (!!!) I really hope this is a reminder to just chill the **** out and enjoy the ride. 

Did You Know
It was possible to lose 3 quality O-Linemen at the start of a season and still bring home the prize? ...thanks to being prepared.
Kyle, and crew. Thanks for being prepared.

Yeah, Clements wasn't a running qb where he'd pick up 80 yards a game but he could scramble around in the backfield, move the pocket, evade the rush, make tacklers miss, extend the play & find an open receiver. 

Anyone find it crazy that Calgary only has 8 cups in their history? It feels like they've been dominant for nearly 2 decades

The fact that MOS has managed four straight seasons of double digit wins in a ruthless West Division without a star QB says a lot about the team and culture he has built here.  You can feel the difference in attitude and approach all over the place.  There is always an urgency to win the next play, but they aren't looking past that or stuck in bullshit pissing contests like some of the players/units on Hamilton and Sask are.

**** this. There wasn't 30 years of ineptitude. We had several great years in there even if we didn't win the ultimate trophy. The craziness and bitching about everything is what happens when you have a "fan" base filled with so many crazy people. 

I’m not a big Nichols fan but the way the defense played in all three playoff games and what Streveler added in his role it think your average Nichols type of performance would have been more than enough to win the cup with him.  Certainly Collaros is the better of the two quarterbacks though. 

Great bump. I've been letting everyone enjoy the week, but make no mistake I have a bag of **** You's for this place that is very very heavy and I'm gonna unload it soon... 

There's a Palm Tree inside Polo Park, isn't there?

That's how I saw it. At the very least, there wasn't enough solid evidence to overturn the call.

Yeah, that was a catch by Bailey. The ball never moved when he hit the ground. 

He'd be a great choice for Saskatchewan with Jim Daley as Assistant HC.

Hey Reinebold signed witht he Bombers as a head coach from a special teams Coach. That worked wonderfully. I know I was full of wonder on how that all happened. On the other hand MOS also jumped from STC to HC. But he stepped in not rode in on a motorcycle. 

Maybe he's showing some post-Grey Cup respect!

IMHO, we need to sign MOS.   Far and away most important, more so than any one player, as much as I love them.    Long term stability at the top is what builds dynasties.   I want the Bombers to be a dynasty, not just a flash.     I'm a long term season ticket holder (since 1970), and I've seen the high's and lows over decades .   What I've seen for the last number of years is a competitive team that players want to come to.  Credit to Wade Miller, Kyle Walters and MOS for that.  When you build the right culture, the victories will come.

You have to assume that Arbuckle wouldn't command Masoli money. He may not even command Nichols money. I like both Streveler and McGuire as long term prospects, but Arbuckle is clearly the best option when combining salary, age and potential. Especially if Streveler wants to come back with the understanding that he will fill a similar role to what he had in the playoffs. 

I agree he may be asking for a little too much. In my opinion Collaros would be the best option with Strev and McGuire.

Solid no thank you on sitting duck old man Nichols.
Half of the reason our offense was successful in the final few games was Collaroses ability to evade pressure in the pocket. Nichols can't do that to save his life.

Collaros!!!!!!

Hope some of the newcomers in the secondary stick around. Loved what Taylor, Jones, Maston showed down the stretch. Really like wolitarsky, and hopefully we can keep our oline strong. 
Our QB situation will be the most intriguing to watch though. Personally I'd like to move on from Nichols. Great guy but I don't think he could have won us those playoff games.  Collaros was exactly what this offense needed, an accurate deep ball passer who's not afraid to throw it up and let a guy make a play. The only time Nichols would throw it deep is if the guy was wide open and that simply won't get it done in November. Gotta find a way to keep streveler around, he's a warrior and I still think he had starting QB potential. 
 
Will be interesting

Yes, this now has to rank up there as one of the best trades in Bomber history...special kudos to Kyle Walters
