    The guy was a lawyer in Chicago for a few years before jumping into coaching at the NFL level. Very, very sharp guy. The guy knows football. He would have made an excellent CFL HC. It's too bad he never came back. Had he come back, I think he would have had a similar career to John Hufnagel with the Stamps.

    Their case manager/boss is Mike Kelly, and all of their targets are "handled internally".   When someone needs to be liquidated, it's a "non-issue".

    We probably missed the boat on this.  I feel like the could have been a deal to be had earlier... 😂
    Walters: How about we swap your 1st overall pick for Damian Jackson, straight up.
    Jones: Not a chance!
    Walters: Do you know how many different positions you could convert him to?
    Jones:  
    Jones: You got yourself a deal!

    He was basically an OL that could catch. And it was damned glorious.

    Unless you are in your early 20's or under, you should remember the greatest fullback in Bomber history...

    Ni idea why you'd take offense to what I say but it seems you need a Snickers way more than me. Hufnagel & Barnes had a helluva season in 81. They truly were one of the gretest tandems to ever play. Why all the angst?
    Like I said, the CFL was so abuzz about their play that they were given a nickname J.J. Barnagel by someone in the media & the name stuck.. Think that would happen if they stunk? It's not always the qbs fault when they lose. The Rider defense wasn't up to par so they gave up a lot of points. With the Bomber tandem, Clements played 75% of the time with Huff coming in for the other 25%. In saskatchewan, Hufnagel played 60% of the time & Joe Barnes about 40%.  So you can't even compare the two tandems. In Saskatchewan, both guys played a lot & played well.

    lol people do that? Im kind of stunned that people actually go that far. Doesn’t seem like that many people have been banned from the out side. Maybe it’s just the perspective. Though maybe it makes more sense if it’s one complete nut off the meds again. 
     
    I probably don’t notice bannings because it doesn’t seem to happen frivolously and threads get cleaned up pretty quick when they do go south. 
     
    Either way I appreciate all the work done by every one who keeps the wheels moving around here.

    Ritchie was just such a breath of fresh air after the reinbold years. That group definitely should have won a cup.

    Check this clip out. They thought a direct hit to a QBs head was a perfectly clean hit.
    Side note: I miss running onto the field after a Bombers win.

    I think in this new era a fullback is a lot of times irrelevant anyways. Sixth lineman for max protection, extra slot (6 pack) or an H back (Heavy receiver , blocker tight end in backfield type) is the way teams are utilizing that extra backfield spot.
