Mike Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 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? We aren't paying Buchko. And as of right now, we're not paying Burke to sit on his ass either.

Logan007 Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 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 Bravo sir. You have just won the internetz for today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 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 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Buchko have 3 years left on his deal ? Did he receive a one time buyout ? At the time he resigned, he had essentially 18 months left on his deal and he took a severance package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacquie Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 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. braddman19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iso_55 Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 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.

Mr Dee Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Here's your answer iso_ Did Buchko take a buy-out?…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 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........??

iso_55 Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Pretty safe to assume Mack will still be getting paid next year & so will Burke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
