I've never thought Lapo is the right OC for any offense. This was confirmed by trying to look at something of his on twitter and finding out he has me blocked, so I must have pissed him off during one of his previous stints here.

how many times did Cahoon get drilled on a first down conversion on a crossing route from calvillo. I seem to remember Cahoon catching suicide passes being a big part of that offense

The incumbent is Richie Hall.......

wasn't he our safety his first season here? *edit* and top d player nominee as safety https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/blue-bombers-sign-safety-maurice-leggett-to-contract-extension-1.2864329

So what you're saying is, 8 is more than 7?

You'd appreciate my comment more if you grew up in the 90's playing Oregon Trail. God damn dysentery always gets you. Was a tongue in cheek joke about the computer game

I don't know about that, dysentery left many bodies along the oregon trail.......

this is what Bowman was preparing us for

Winnipeg is now West of Regina? Or did you come to the wrong site?

The part I try not to think about is the JSK still has NFL aspirations and Bighill is only on a one year deal.

Stegall and Doug Brown won 0 cups, guess those guys weren't worth having either, should have looked for a better receiver than shoddy old 85 if we wanted to win

I saw it was Brodbeck and almost didn't read it, so be glad twitter is blocked

did you read the article? The portion of the loan this is referring to is the portion that was supposed to be paid from property tax from development of the old stadium site. Not the portion the Bombers are paying and will continue to pay.

I prefer Winnipeg with the most points for. We've suffered through some anemic offensive outputs. A few years ago 353 points in 18 games, we're already at 199 through 6 this year. Not to take anything away from Calgary, I'm just happy to see a Winnipeg team that can put points on the board.

interesting yes, although in the CFL I don't necessarily want to hear. If it's the NHL/NBA/MLB/NFL then sure, even if it make them look bad, they're getting paid well enough to deal with the publicity stuff. In the CFL I think they deserve a bit more of their privacy. If I get fired from my job, the reason is between me and my company, and I make more than some CFL players. So I'm ok with respecting players privacy.

just personal opinion, I wasn't upset when he left.

stupid penalties outweigh his talent. Good player, but I don't miss him.

apparently my point wasn't clear. He said they have some responsibility not to be because they play football, implying the rest of us don't, which obviously we all should be expected to not be rapists and wife beaters

So I have no responsibility to not be a rapist wife beater? Awesome

the league also said they won't approve any contract if someone else tries to sign him. So he's been blackballed without any due process

It wasn't that long ago many here were complaining about us using taking multiple receivers in this last draft.....

It can be tough to find the middle ground between what's going to be a decent discussion, and what's a waste of time. I do find that almost anytime I open a thread and wonder why does this thread exist, that yes it's opened by BigBlue. On the flip side, I tend to come on to see what's being discussed, and not starting discussion myself. It may come down to visiting habits. I find when I have time to check daily, new small threads tend to be an annoyance because I'm caught up on everything in the big threads. When I can't get on daily and I come on after a week 20 new pages in a big thread can seem daunting and I'd prefer there were more specific threads so I could decide what to get caught up on. With that said, I'll read the content regardless of format. I get liberal with the block button for the people whose thoughts I don't want (and sometimes that ends up in an entire page being redacted. My guess would be the casual readers prefer smaller threads, and the every day guys prefer the big threads.

Maybe I'm a ****, but you put your sons long term health at risk by not deciding his health mattered more than football and picking a treatment option that was better for football than for his health.

Are you implying he might play for another team? If he's healthy enough to play he's way too good to not have a place for him. Or are you implying he won't be healthy enough to play or play like has has in the past?
