As the Wade Miller regime carries on, the #Bombers president keeps pushing to bring Rick Worman onto the football staff. #CFL

Rick Worman is on staff at a NCAA school. Sources: Wade Miller pushing Kyle Walters hire him to #Bombers staff. Walters pushing back. #CFL

Finished last in the league in 3 of 4 seasons (counting this season).

false.

No kidding lol 1 out of 3 seasons and it was his first

The CFL requires teams to have a certified athletic therapist. Fisher has no certification. Couture is a certified AT, registered massage therapist, that teaches at the massage therapy college, certified strength and conditioning and certified personal trainer. He may very well be the most qualified guy in the CFL. He would be a huge loss if Miller wants to mess into that area too.

It helps Miller's other business, Elite.

 

Its the Bomber way. 

Fisher coming back would be MASSIVE for the organization. Doug Brown has sworn up and down that the day Fish left to do his own thing, is the day the organization started the downhill slide post-Ritchie....

 

Gimme a break. They are buddies and DB works out in his gym for free.

 

Fish hasn't worked in a professional team setting in 10 years -- and in that field, being current matters. 

 

Don't believe all tire-pumping you read. Its friends helping friends.

Couldn't hurt to add more help in the strength/training/athletic therapy departments.

 

Keep the guys healthy, keep the guys in good shape.  

Just another cause for concern?

Where did it say he was leaving? Nowhere.

false.

 

Last in 2010

 

Tied for last in 2012.

 

Probably last this year.

 

 

There are no ties in the final standing because they have something called tiebreakers.

LOL - Is there ever a post from you that doesn't pour out negative energy?

Not sure he would want being told how to do his job? So you swallow it like some or go elsewhere as an option.

 

Just thought this was worth mentioning ...

 

For all this talk about how bad our team is and if we're really right for assuming the staff is the issue, all that discussion as to whether the problem is the staff or the players ...

 

There are now three players on other rosters in the CFL who were originally on our negotiation list but refused to play for this franchise because of apprehension due to the current staff that is in place.

 

DE Eric Norwood on Hamilton, good rotational guy in his first CFL season. Very Kenny Mainor-esque.

 

WR Jeff Fuller on Calgary, I'm sure we'd love to have a 6'4" receiver going across the middle like this guy has so far

 

DE Aaron Maybin on Toronto, waited almost two years for this guy to show an interest in the CFL and then when he finally did, he said "sure, but not in Winnipeg" and now the former first round NFL pick is in Toronto

 

So where would these guys get the news about Winnipeg being so bad?  Most of the guys that come up readily admit they know nothing about the CFL or Canada until they get here.  Is some agent poisoning the well?  When they come to Canada, they pretty much are at the end of their professional ropes as their NFL dreams are either dead or on hold, and so it would be a case of Beggars can't be choosers, I would think.

 

I guess news get out.... probably agents. Maybe we don't pay well compared to other teams? Who knows?

Its been a while. Can you blame me after the last 4-5 years? 

Source on all the guys not wanting to play for us? I mean I do believe just curious.

 

From the Scratching Post:

 

Norwood was on Winnipeg's negotiation list last year, but was removed when he showed no interest in Manitoba: not because of the weather but because of the Blue Bombers' organizational missteps, which he learned of from former teammates who'd played there.

 

Unfortunately it doesn't say when he was removed, who these former teammates were or when they played here.

I am positive Couture is the best most qualified guy in the league...so leave him to do it.

For a moderator, you could stand to show a bit of maturity. Kids? Come on. More like 20 year Bomber season ticket holder.

Who are referring to? Walters? Couture? Both?

Okay, so not a kid, but ignorant as one.....

 

 

Okay Homer Simpson -- you sure your last name isn't Miller?

 

Go Blue and just take my damn money!!!

If you are big name player it would be a lot easier once you are established to get some endorsement money on the side than Vancouver, Toronto or Montreal.

But really, it's only been 2+ years since the wheels have started to come off and…..you're already got a spotlight on the new guy…and it sounds more personal to me.

Who ever is being told who is being hired in their area....particularly when a GM has not been hired to run football ops? That makes no sense to me.

LaPo saved his butt by winning one game and going to the Cup after an extended bad streak. Following a 4-14 season.not sure the wheels were on there?

I disagree -- granted, hindsight is 20/20, but you would have to say things went south during Lyle's last year and the carpet bomb he left us with.

 

Then the Board went the "safe" route by hiring a GM we knew wouldn't embarrass the team -- too bad he was largely ineffective. 

 

SO thats since 2008-9. A long time!

Bauer left when it became evident that the new chairman Watchorn wanted to meddle and get the BoD involved in day to day football. He saw it coming and said this does not work. Was he right or wrong?

LaPo saved his butt by winning one game and going to the Cup after an extended bad streak. Following a 4-14 season.not sure the wheels were on there?

In a season where we were 4-14 but easily could have won 3 or 4 more games, then finishing 1st and the EDF and you don't consider some sort of semblance of a football team?

I do.

So now close counts in football? As people have stated the record is the record is the record....ain't horses shoes, atom bombs, ballroom dancing, hand grenades or turd fights....close doesn't cut it.
