First time in 29 years where the off season is a not a time to be bemoaning a missed Grey Cup- how sweet it is.

 

Figured we can park all Blue Bomber going ons for this off-season here in this thread.

 

Starting with this:

 

 

 

Let's get this guy Locked up for the foreseeable future...

He might be the only guy left, at this point....

Wow...call me shocked..but happy

Must be more going on there behind the scenes then being let known..hopefully a good guy like Khari doesn't suffer cause of it.

If I was a betting man..Step right up Mr Chris Jones...he will be dumped in 3 games

Who would take the gm job with unsure ownership and a coach who isn't your guy. Montreal gonna come down to Popp Tillman or Taman for sure or some dude nobody has heard of.

Even GBill and Chip would want their own coach.

As long as they had someone to explain their rightness to, I'm sure they'd make it work!

He should be able to get a stack of high end night club napkins...

How is it that the Bombers have done virtually nothing so far and I am loving this off season so far.

I think it’s more a matter them working but they just haven’t announced anything major, as opposed to lying on the couch in fur coats and a drunken stupor.  

Bombers won the last game of the season while most other organizations had three plus weeks to get the gears turning on their off-seasons.  With the vast majority of the other coaching positions filled, I’m confident we get our front office sorted and then the player signing announcements will be flying out of the PR office.

Now that toronto is locked up with a coach,I think an extension announcement is very very soon for o'shea

Rigmaiden staying is fantastic news. I think Montreal is more of a mess than the league is letting on. I get that anyone coming in now won't get to pick their HC, but Khari did a good job last year and would likely be high on most lists for HC openings. I don't think his presence is scaring folks away. Much more likely would be the ownership issue.

I was initially worried about Osh leaving but after Toronto looked like they were sticking with Chamblin it hasn't been on my radar. Really shocked to see them fire Chamblin for someone not named O'Shea. No idea what to expect with Dinwiddie in Toronto.

This is great news but have to wonder why he interviewed at all. He knew the ownership situation going in.

Flattered that the dumbest guy on this forum thinks I’m GM material.

I've applied and interviewed for jobs just to look at what an opportunity may be, and I think it is good to stay interview ready.

There is value just going through the process.

Not looking good for the Als....  it will look bad on them going back to the guys that they sent home already...

No worries.  I'll slow down so you can keep up.

Thank you. Free tickets for you when I’m running the Als.

I was told that you have to mark sarcastic posts within emojis... Seems that some members need instructions for everything...

Well, in my defense, as the dumbest guy on this forum, just managing to form semi-coherent sentences is pushing the red line on my tach...
