NotoriousBIG Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Danny Mac? Hope there isn't an open bar in the new Bomber offices. Kidding aside, that was a nausea-inducing article, basically confirming that convenience hires continue to rule the day in WPG. Good luck Khari. You are going to need it.

NotoriousBIG Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Is Danny McManus an alcoholic? NO! I did NOT say or imply that. Just that, well.... am I the only guy who used to see the old school players in the bars after games? Damon Allen was another piece of work. Guy sure liked to "socialize."

Mike Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 What would be wrong with McManus? He's the head US scout for a team that has found some solid US talent and he's got great credibility amongst big players in CFL circles Blue-urns, B-F-F-C and blitzmore 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the head US scout for a team that has found some solid US talent and he's got great credibility amongst big players in CFL circles Nothing wrong with Danny M -- he'll be fine -- the problem is towards the end of the piece where they talk about how "tight" KJ is with Miller, yadda yadda. Just seems so... business as usual in Bomberland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Perfect Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 I get the impression that based on the comments by the ....ahem....regulars lets call them, that unless this team gets Wally Buono, Marv Levy or Pat Bowlan, that they will just ***** and complain about whoever is hired.

Why isn't the GM hiring these people? These are the questions that are continuing to worry me. I guess this and other things are going to prove that Miller really is the GM and Walters or whomever will only have the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 This makes no sense? Who is the GM? Why isn't the GM hiring these people? Walters is the GM. Miller just needs to finish his pretend 'exhaustive search' before he names Walters GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotoriousBIG Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 This makes no sense? Who is the GM? Why isn't the GM hiring these people? According to the article, the GM is Walters as per Miller, and the coach (KJ) has already been chosen by Miller, presumably in discussions with his interim/soon to be GM. A flawless system of checks and balances. Is Sam Katz involved somewhere too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR. CFL Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Perhaps he just wait until it looks like his exhaustive search is complete, then name Walters and then all the other hires he is deciding Walters will make. The optics of this all smells....I guess if you are in the big chair you don't care about the optics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you seriously suggesting that there's been an "secret interview process" being conducted that neither the Freep, Sun, or CJOB know about?

DR. CFL Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Well if the exhaustive search is now completed.....he must be out of breath. Who exactly do you think he exhausted himself on?
