  • I just don't believe that a rookie GM and a rookie CEO led by a broken board of directors is what this team needs right now... or ever.

  • I saw it posted somewhere by someone else that summed it up best. Any potential GM that wanted to keep Burke as head coach was a poor choice for GM anyway. 

  • OK, I'm not sure, exactly, if this is where posters are getting answers to their questions, but it seems just as reliable.   http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~ssanty/cgi-bin/eightball.cgi

We aren't paying Buchko.

 

And as of right now, we're not paying Burke to sit on his ass either.

 

Didn't Buchko have 3 years left on his deal ?

Did he receive a one time buyout ?

Want to know about Higgins... Then ask Miller and Higgins about it. Curious to hear Miller tap dance around an interview he had with Higgins. So there is one of two people who are your source.

I think what you've just posted here (interview Miller and Higgins) is exactly what the poster wanted you to provide a link to.

What interview would that have been?

The source is you, not Higgins and Miller, you're the one supplying this "interview info."

In the Calgary Herald today, a story said that the Winnipeg Free Press yesterday confirmed that Dave Dickenson is not interested in the Blue Bomber head coach position.

At the time he resigned, he had essentially 18 months left on his deal and he took a severance package

 

 

 

Yeah, I knew I'd get that response. My answer is that I can't see things being any worse under private ownership for the Bombers than the way it is now. How many people are we paying to sit on their asses now? Four?? This is F Troop calibre stupid the way things are being run now. Fans don't trust the process. Judging by the way Miller answers media questions & his  body language it's apparent to me that he doesn't trust the local media. Perhaps just a small group of people in his inner circle.

 

... one

 

Buchko and Burke is at least two, no?

How do you know we are not paying Buchko?

In the Calgary Herald today, a story said that the Winnipeg Free Press yesterday confirmed that Dave Dickenson is not interested in the Blue Bomber head coach position.

But as someone else said what else is he going to say at this time. Asking Dickenson as the Stamps are preparing for the Western Final was idiotic.

Yes, Jacquie. The response was curt & to the point. I don't remember exactly what Dave said but he didn't sound very happy he was asked.

During the presser, it sounded like a mutual thing.  Later in the week, there was an article that he resigned.

That sounds dumb.  Why would someone not be happy to be offered a promotion?

There was LaPo until season end. Then there's Crowton & Burke... I don't know if Buchko took a buyout or not. Even so, he still was paid out. Can't be just one.

I would think Crowtons deal expires this year anyway. Don't assistants usually get 2 year deals? 

Crowton probably to the end of the year. I haven't heard or read anything to suggest that its just Burke we're on the hook for. Or that Buchko took a buy out.  If it was just Burke that would be great but i kind of doubt it. I would need to see a link confirming all that before I believe it.

Here's your answer iso_

Did Buchko take a buy-out?….MostLikely.gif

Crowton's deal's up

Buchko resigned, not fired (no money needed)

Burke is still technically around, so not being paid to do nothing

Lapo's deal is up

 

Mack might be still getting money going into next year, but other than that........??

Yes, Jacquie. The response was curt & to the point. I don't remember exactly what Dave said but he didn't sound very happy he was asked.

Because he's trying to prepare for the Western Finals and doesn't want any distractions.

Pretty safe to assume Mack will still be getting paid next year & so will Burke.
