Start worrying... http://www.freep.com/article/20140103/NEWS06/301030076/H1N1-flu-university-of-michigan-deaths-hsoitalizations-vaccine Three adults have died, according to a health system spokeswoman. An infant from central Michigan also has died from H1N1, according to the Michigan Department of Community Health. “These deaths are among previously healthy individuals. This is not the group that the public usually thinks about as being susceptible to serious illness with influenza,” said Dr. Matt Davis, chief medical executive for the state health department and a U-M professor of pediatrics and communicable diseases and of internal medicine.

Stubler New Stamps Defensive Coordinator
Hey you're putting in the effort to defend an indefensible position, you can try and back track and say it's not bitterness over the guy thumbing his nose at the Bombers but it's not flying with anyone cause we all know your reactions better than that.Welp since this has clearly reached the "i know you are but what am i" stage of bomber forum "discussions" im just gonna leave it as is.. Happy New Years guys and heres to Marcels offenses shredding calgarys defense in 2014 Yes, the Shotgun Draw will leave that Stamps D stymied for days. You DID watch the grey cup, right? Cuz it pretty much did. I'm confused. Neither Stubler, not the Stampeders, were in the Grey Cup. I think he's referring to the Western semi, when the shotgun draw did defeat Stubler's D.

Miles or Marshall...
Brendan Taman said exactly that on H & L. I don't know when exactly, but it was either just before or just after the Grey Cup.

Miles or Marshall...
It's horribly bitter. My Grandpa was on a Lancaster in WWII so I felt compelled to try one. It was a mistake...

Rate the Bombers Offensive Line
IMO January is a very good LT. I'd only take Fulton, Bryant, & Bourke ahead of him, and Burke is mostly b/c he's NI. Boatmen & Douglas need to go. Jones is already much better than both of them and he was only here for around a month. I think Jones has the potential to be a very good tackle. Unless one of our young NI's really stand out, I wouldn't mind him starting at RT next season.

Miles for DC & Marshall for DL coach.

Waiver draft transactions
What were you hoping for in a waiver draft you probably didn't know existed before today?

Kyle Walters Expansion Draft Presser
I liked the question, "Have you ever been part of a situation like this before?" It wouldn't have taken much research to discover there hasn't been an expansion draft since Walters became involved in player personnel.

Waaaaaah. Witty banter like this is what makes this site so enjoyable.

Cortez and Lapo both say no to BC
Tell Chapdelaine they were just fooling around and of course they want him back as their OC.

Winnipeg To Host 2016 Heritage Classic
Being +5 wouldn't cause many problems. It's not like they'll be relying on natural ice out there.

BIg rumor concerning DC position
Yesterday's man? I don't think so. Not even close. Fourth job in five years. Has to be said. So what? He was promoted out of the DC job in Toronto, and left the Esks by his own decision. It's not like he's getting fired each time for fielding incompetent defenses.

Taman and extensions
i'd agree with that... ...if the CFL had a salary cap. however, it does not. Exactly. I hate that they can spend more than us & it helps them win, but there's nothing wrong with going over the luxury tax threshold if you can afford it. I'd prefer the CFL to have a hard cap than the current system. The only league with a hard cap is the NCAA. Unless the penalty is forfeiting games, it's not a "hard cap" IMO. So what do the NHL & NFL have? As I understand it, the NHL disallows any contract that would put a team over the cap, so there's no need for a penalty.

Collaros to wait for free agency?
I'd cheer for a cloned Hitler if he could win us a Grey Cup.

Stubler was released by the Lions today. http://blogs.theprovince.com/2013/12/07/lions-dump-rich-stubler/

BIg rumor concerning DC position
I definitely prefer an agressive D over what Stubler does, but he's had success with it so you really can't complain about it too much. I'd be happy if he does come here. His D in Toronto was one of the best I've seen since I started watching the CFL.

BIg rumor concerning DC position
That was after the playoff loss (link). Regardless after giving it some thought this is a pretty solid hire for O'Shea. Stubler has a proven track record (one that has more success than failure) and one that has a lot of experience in this league (valuable considering how young this whole staff is). While O'Shea is a huge wild card, I would argue he can't possibly be any worse than Burke and so this makes it 2/2 in upgrades at the coaching staff spots right now in my opinion. The vets on that BC defence really like their scapegoats. Last year it was all Cauchy Muamba's fault. Apparently this year they're picking Stubler to blame their early exit on.

Collaros to wait for free agency?
I would have no issues with Burris as our starting qb next season. If we go with Collaros and he doesn't pan out I would harm myself. I honestly don't think I could handle another disappointment from this team.

Potential FAs list
Nobody? Other than Pasztor's agent and Pencer's tattoo artist. Why is Pencer's tatoo artist laughing?

Coordinator Candidates?
Why do you say that? Not even as a position coach? I don't know that he'd be my first choice at OC, but I certainly wouldn't object to having him in a different role on the coaching staff, like receivers coach for example.
-
Coordinator Candidates?
Lawless said Washington & Miles are the names he's heard at DC, and KJ as OC. He gave another name for OC but I don't remember who.
