    Jesse reacted to WBBFanWest in Migration (To the General Forum)   
    Funner fact.  First Nations folks did not immigrate here because the definition of immigration is: "the international movement of people into a destination country of which they are not natives or where they do not possess citizenship in order to settle or reside there."  There was no nation or country to immigrate to because that concept did not yet exist, therefore, they migrated.  That's why it is inaccurate to say that they are immigrants too.

    You are absolutely right.  I was just going to edit my post, but instead I'll just leave it there as a monument to my boneheadedness.

    I made an obviously tounge-in-cheek joke about the people of Regina.  While the internet is now apparently a battle to the death, you could just shrug your shoulders and move on.

    People complain that the Bombers don't develop their own quarterbacks.
    People complain when the Bombers think they may have developed a backup quarterback.
    Conclusion: Wiecek just likes to complain.
    Promoting Davis is no doubt a risk, but the whole point of letting the third QB develop is so he can work his way up the depth chart. At some point every team at QB or any other position makes the decision to promote players up the depth chart. This isn't unusual. 
    Clearly the Bombers feel he's ready for the job. Or maybe they just feel that he's better than the soon-to-be 38 year old Kevin Glenn (and that doesn't seem unreasonable, either). I don't know. I'm not particularly a Dom Davis fan, but I don't think this is far and away a terrible decision.  Maybe it blows up in their face but then we can argue that for any other position too. This just happens to be the QB spot, which of course is going to draw the most attention.

    I don't see how you can refer to it as a "real game of football in OT" if I team can score a TD and win. If both sides got a drive, then it would be a real game simulation.

    I tend to agree that by signing Davis first, they gave a pretty clear signal as to their thoughts moving forward.  You don't sign a Kevin Glenn to be your 3rd stringer.  You sign someone you want to develop for that slot.  It looks like Davis will be the #2 moving forward.  Personally, I'm not too concerned moving forward because we know what Glenn brings to the table and given his age, I'm not convinced that we'd be any better with him at the helm over Davis should Nichols go down, and yes, I realize that we haven't seen much of Davis.

    I have a suspicion that money was only part of reason both sides put a pin in it for now.  Rather the Bombers didn't want to make any claims they might not keep regarding Glenn's spot on the depth chart.  Everyone is assuming Glenn would be the back up but there have been signs for a while that this team is looking for Davis to take a step forward.  Even last year Glenn sat in the #3 spot long after the "learning the playbook" justification had any merit left.  Davis was the first QB that got signed this offseason.  I'm not going to read anything more into that than the obvious - there is no doubt that the Bombers want Davis here.
    So maybe the conversation went like this: The Bombers told Glenn they want him but he might be 3rd on the depth chart and he might have to take a very incentive laden contract as a result; Glenn said cool beans Kyle but I'm 745 years old and this could be my last contract and I don't wanna go out like that, you get me homeslice?; Walters says yo Kevs, there is only love in my heart for you, no disrespect at all, just always wanna be keepin it 100 with you, ya dig?; and Kevin digs so they hug it out and promise to keep digits at the ready both knowing that the next time they see each other it will be from opposite sides* of the field.
     
     
    *Unless Glenn signs with an eastern team of course, cause those stadiums were drawn up on the back of an IHOP place mat.

    Man, Delvin Breaux's biography is crazy. He broke three vertebrae in high school, his college still honored his scholarship, he was kind of a player-coach in college for awhile, then he went to play in the super low minors (the Louisiana Bayou Vipers of the Gridiron Developmental Football League?) and onward to the AFL and Hamilton and today the NFL. Nice story.
