Bluto must be conflicted ...
I bet bluto's closet bomber fanness will finally come out now... and especially after we grab Collaros in FA!
-
Potential FAs list
I'm a Chad Simpson fan, but when Ed Tait says we've likely seen his last game as a bomber, He's probably not coming back.... Guess I'd better change my avy.

Potential FAs list
Doesn't Laurent want to try the NFL? Im assuming he does. But I'm fairly out of touch when it comes to CFL news and rumors now a days.. so take that with a grain of salt.

Potential FAs list
Craig Butler would be a great pick up too, as would Ted Laurent... really solidify the NI talent on defence... Doubt any of these guys are available however.
-
Potential FAs list
Tsoumpas. Getting a guy like that would do a hell of a lot of good for the o-line. I think he's one of, if not the top guard in the league.

Burke/Creehan to Argos...Craig Dickenson to Eskimos?
my three main wishes on my wishlist: -Collaros at QB -Dominant lines on both sides of the ball -Khari back with the organization in some form, weather it be HC or OC, doesn't matter. Im one of the few who thinks Khari could be a good HC, as long as he has good Coordinators around him.

Burke/Creehan to Argos...Craig Dickenson to Eskimos?
Creehans a great positional coach IMO. But I don't think he'll be a DC again for a long time. He seems to just hitch his wagon to Burke and follow him around everywhere. I would have preferred to keep Burke on as DC, but if he leaves he leaves. It doesn't bother me to much. Wonder who O'Shea would hire as DC now. Wouldn't mind Kavis Reed. Experianced, I thought the defence in 2010 was pretty darn good.

Head coach - Who do you want and why?
Wouldn't mind O'Shea as HC, but I want Khari back one way or another. If its as OC, I wouldn't mind keeping Marcel on as a consultant.

Head coach - Who do you want and why?
In fairness to Cortez hiring Creehan, Im sure who he really wanted was Burke, so he got the guy who was learning under him hoping he could emulate that success since Burke wasn't available.

Rumour: Danny McManus Potential Assistant GM Candidate
opposite. Rumors Miller wanted Worman, did it happen? rumors Miller wanted Walby... that didn't happen. I wonder why... Rumors are that Walters was pushing back
-
Rumour: Danny McManus Potential Assistant GM Candidate
So basically Walters is the GM and Miller is making all the hirings and decisions ? no. Sure Miller's been butting in, but what makes everybody think that Walters is his whipping boy? Its pretty obvious to me that Walters has been biting back
-
Rumour: Danny McManus Potential Assistant GM Candidate
I think that a few people have been interviewed. That's probably where all the rumors came from. I bet all the rumored candidates who aren't art of an organization were interviewed. The reason we haven't heard of many Head Coaching rumors is simple. All the other candidates are NOT part of the organization, and Walters IS. I think Khari is the guy Walters wants. (which is possibly the main reason Miller will hire him, because Miller probably wants Khari as well.)

Khari Jones - Pros & Cons
Im slowly liking Khari as HC more and more. He just really needs an experienced staff to work with for me to be happy about it.

Burke fired
You can stand by your fact but it doesn't make it right. How can you say a 3-15 team has talent? Sure, at a few positions but overall, not enough. Take Ricky Ray out of the equation, and insert Justin Goltz, or Jason Boltus., you're not getting close to half the same results. Sometimes a great player at a key position makes everybody around them better by association. except that Ricky was out of the equation for 8 games... and while nobody could say that the offence was as good without him, the team wasn't crippled. Hence the Collaros love around here. You know if you had Goltz and Boltus your team would look very bad.
-
Burke fired
I like the idea of Khari here, *IF* he gets experienced Coordinators. Would love Burke as DC, wouldn't mind Kavis either. A guy like Worman as OC would be good too. Have to keep Craig as STC. I wonder If we'll make a push for Glenn if Khari is HC. I would be pretty happy
- Western Semi - Lions @ Riders

What *if* the Blue keep Burke as HC
I don't even want Burke as a DC anymore. This year has completely soured me on the man... If he was brought back as the HC I definitely wouldn't be buying tickets, and I don't even know how many games I would watch on the tube. wouldn't want to waste 3 hours of my day.
-
Will Kyle Walters get fleeced?
I'm not particularly ok with trading our second overall. I'd offer one of our thirds this year, and a conditional next.

Arash Madani: Miller Trying to Force Rick Worman On Walters
while i do agree with you, nothing at this point would surprise me.. im not going to get the torches ready until something concrete is done.. but to be honest, dunigan as GM doesnt scare me as much as it should for some reason.. with walters as AGM, I would easily be on board.. khari as HC... thats scary lol Khari as HC wouldn't be too bad IMO if he had two veteran coordinators. Rick Worman, Craig Dickinson and Kavis Reed would be plenty of experience.
-
Tim Burke show tonight
I think Chris Best would be one of them
-
Why hasn't Tim Burke been fired yet?
I'm seriously hoping it isn't true, but I'm starting to get this feeling they're going to keep him.
-
Kavis Reed as Bombers new Defensive Coordinator?
I wouldn't mind kavis reed as dc at all.
-
Garrett as good as ever
I'm still a pretty big fan of Chad Simpson. I hope he comes back next season, IMO he could be a top back in this league behind a solid O-line and with a good Offensive scheme. Although I have a good feeling about this Fannin. I'm excited to see what he can do next season....

Arash Madani: Miller Trying to Force Rick Worman On Walters
Miller Is definitely starting to activate my spidy senses.

Tom Higgins interested in Bombers GM job
maybe its time to let Miller go and find a CEO that isn't so power hungry? He is just Interim so it wouldn't be that big a blow.
