2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
I said that Edwards has the money to build both facilities (practice & stadium) but wants the City to pay for it. As much as the Stamps need a new stadium, they need a practice facility even worse. Go take your meds.

I think Hamilton fans want McManus. No way I'd let that team take both. **** them. We're not here to build Hamilton up. Wade Miller better put his foot down.

I just shudder seeing 33,000 empty seats for every home game next season. They might as well just pull the plug on the team & let it die.

The Stamps organizations have no facilities or equipment for their players. It's a damned embarassment for a city of 1.6 million. Why anyone would want to play here is beyond me. During training camp in May when smoke from forest fires were causing issues with safe air quality, the Stamps had no indoor facility to shift practice to. They had no choice but to cancel practices. Multi billionaire owner Edwards won't build an indoor practice facility for his team unless the City pays. Multi billionaire owner Murray Edwards could buy a tract of land & build a stadium if he wanted but City has to pay. He said no.

You don't play for the chance to get to the Championship game. You play to win it. BIG difference. Well, good for you....

Based on the two stories I've read, Calgary (no surprise) is just a **** hole to play in.

If we lost Buck I can say it's a safe bet that he won't come here. He'll follow Campbell to Edmonton. Why would he? We have an old & fading Collaros who seems to shut down in Grey Cups. Our most experienced backup in Streveler is currently injured & can't throw a pass over 5 yards with any accuracy. He could never flourish in a Maksymic offense. It looks like Bombers have no plans to bring in any of the free agent qbs that will be available in February. so it'll be status quo. Maksymic has Tre Ford in Edmonton if they sign him, MBT or Adams should they decide to sign him. Edmonton may be on the rise & we are getting old.

I don't know about Edmonton as I don't live there.

What a dynasty means to me
The one word that needs to be permanently banned from this forum should be the word, DYNASTY. I don't ever want to hear that word again when it comes to this era of the Bombers from 2019 to 2024. Begone, not to be spoken of again.

Twenty five to 30 cms forecast for Calgary tonight & tomorrow to go along with the close to 20 cms we already have. Is summer over?

Yep, nothing changes & no one in the media has the ..... to ask Osh or Walters about it. I wish Jack Matheson, John Robertson, Bob Picken & Doc Blanchard were around. There'd be a different tune being sung in the media if they were. They'd be asking all the questions that we'd want answers to. As I felt. Then maybe some of the posters just blaming Collaros for all our troubles should lay off.

Brandon, I somehow missed your quote about some kind of change is needed. My response?? Some sort of change? SMH. What kind of change? Nothing will change until Mike takes it upon himself & leaves. He's the winningest coach in Bomber history. Do you really think he'll suddenly look inward & say that he blew it & needs to change or do things differently? That will never happen. What we see is what we'll get. Tommy, please step into a time machine & come back as the 1984 version of yourself.

A lot of it is coaching & roster management. In other words, our HC.

Why are posters here giving that a thumbs up??? That's brutal if we lose Buck, Goveia & McManus.

2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
I kept waiting for our experiened recivers to really step up once Schoen & Lawler were out this year & it never happened. i was dumbfounded with the lack of production throwing the ball the first half of the year. Lawler once he came back had a couple of great games but never dominated, I'm thinking his arm isn't at 100% yet. Wolitarsky is the forgotten man at the best of times. Then he got hurt. Demski had a very quiet thousand yard season. It was like he was on cruise control. He got a thousand yards but really didn't do much. It was exciting to watch the development of Onterria Wilson into a thousand yard receiver but he wasn't dominant either. He has another year to go on his rookie deal. Let's hope next season he can blossom. The injury situation really had an impact on Collaros' numbers. It didn't help that we played a useless receiver in Josh Johnson for most of the season.

Sheahan 3 steps while most punters use two. As he 3 steps he also adjusts his body to sidewind it. That all takes valuable time as there's a lot of wasted motion. I don't know what exactly they want from Sheajhan. Ball placement? Distance? Hang time? Ability to flip the field? He gives us none of that. Worst punter in the CFL. There are far better ones out there. Just have to find one which shouldn't be too difficult.

In fajardo's defense, there are qbs who go their whole career without getting to or winning a championship. Dieter Brock being among them. You forgot another sleeper who was hurt most of last season..... Taylor Powell. He'd be #2 behind Davis Alexander on my "Get List" if I was Kyle Walters.

Why are we worrying about Trevor Harris for? Maybe if he played for us, his "vanilla" would have prevented us from going to the Grey Cup.

Most irksome moment of GC 2024- Why did they Stray from Brady?

Whose fault is that? Mine? Booch? Johnny Abonny? Mike? Anyone else??? As I said, it is what it is. I'd love it if Walters says enough is enough with some players here & made him release them.

We need to spend money & rebuild the defense. Especially along the Front 7. We need two impactful Defensive Tackles who are not only run stoppers but can pressure from the interior of the line. A new MLB. And we have to sign Ford. A priority!!!

He's a player on the roster who sticks out like a sore thumb yet gets regular rotations on the DL. So, they play him, He does nothing & again we can't criticize? He's become a piniatta over here because he should have retired two years ago. I really don't like criticizing the guy all the time but it is what it is.
