  1. And it had nothing to do with him. Reilly was a breakthrough star last year, it's just unfortunate that he was insulated by the absolute turd of a team around him.
  2. The salary cap is almost 5 million, not 500,000. Why is there this constant notion on Bomber message boards that the Bombers can not afford more than one good player? I don't understand. It's all speculation Mike. It's not that we can't afford more than one good player, but we are also paying good money to a chunk of mediocre players too. We'd probably be very surprised to see what some of the players on our team are making. Everyone has their idea of where we are at in terms of cap space. There's not an "idea" of where we are at in terms of cap space right now. Other than bonus money paid this year so far, we have 100% of our cap space.

  4. Rush end? He's a natural safety in Etch's twisted defense. Don't be silly, our safety spot in Etch's defense was firmed up the moment we extended Bryant Turner.
  5. LOL - ok I'll withdraw it... LOL I'm sure their lingerie modeling parties are fantastic, I'm just not going to speculate on them.
  6. Right. "Hits on". I can't throw her under the bus too much now, come on. Use your imagination.
  7. This is a totally random source but hey, here it goes. Henry Burris is going to decide where he'll play next year by the end of the day today. It's either Winnipeg or Ottawa, so in all reality, it's Winnipeg. He's already been told he's being released, just paperwork needs to get sent to the league to make it official. So much for no tampering in the CFL, Winnipeg and Ottawa have already both talked to him? What a shock. The source is the cheerleader that he hits on every time he comes to Winnipeg.
  8. I suppose maybe you could trick Willy into that if he was deaf, dumb and blind. Anyone who is in touch with the CFL knows Burris is going to be our starter this year. You can pitch Willy on his role of being able to have a quicker path to a starting job than in other places, including Saskatchewan but you're not going to trick him into thinking he's being given a serious chance to take our starting job out of camp.
  9. Not even going to comment on how stupid he is because of bitterness, I'm just going to say that if that's what he wanted, that's an absolute mishandling of the situation.
  10. Not suggesting every QB thinks the same, but we didn't lose out on Collaros from a lack of effort or lack of ability to offer a better role than other teams. We lost out on Collaros because our reputation as a franchise is in the shitter. I can't say I blame Collaros, I wouldn't have come here either if I was him. And I wouldn't come here if I was Drew Willy. I'd take the safe bet and follow Khari to BC.
  11. it's really not going to matter and FWIW, I don't think we get Willy.
  12. I just don't understand the logic. Isn't it ironic that we got beat out for Collaros by the team that needed him because the guy working for us couldn't do the job he needs to do for us, for them? as in ... Collaros went to Hamilton because Danny Mac didn't find a prospect worth considering as a starter. And now we're going to count on him to find us a prospect worth considering as a starter.
  13. I'm not even going to pretend I can like this. All I will say is that it must suck for Kyle Walters knowing that he needs to rebuild such a garbage dump and he has to deal with our reputation making it difficult to bring guys in. Unless he actually just didn't go all out for Collaros. In which case, **** right off.
  14. Ticats win. They signed Collaros.
  15. Korey Banks would definitely be a good versatile piece in an Etcheverry defense.
  16. Drew Edwards thinks Winnipeg offered more money than Hamilton.
  17. So you figure it's accurate that he made roughly 100k a start? I don't have any sources to verify anything but logic dictates that Troy Smith probably has a contract in the range of typical backup wages.
  18. Yeah no doubt. Cam Cole? Sorry I'm not buying it.Of course. Mike knows more than the National Post. Why am I not surprised. You are never wrong (in your own mind that is).See aboveI guess this time I did.
  19. Cam cole quoted his 2012 NFL salary it's an error in the article
  20. Smith made $400k last season. Sure he did. Probably time to stop making things up.
  21. I still think we have a shot. He's obviously not opposed to coming here.
  22. Nelson Martin and Gary Etcheverry? Henry Burris? I'm starting to lose interest. And it's not even February.
  23. Ottawa is an incredibly unattractive destination for Collaros.

    Holy moly.
