Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 1m Tim Burke says Justin Goltz is questionable this week (ankle) and Pierce "remains injured." "You may see Max Hall this week." #Bombers

When it wasn't someone recruited from within? Can't think of any examples. Can you name one?

So you'll have a guy working as an assistant GM or whatever he currently does, while also running our team. That will fly with his current employer I'm sure.

I think you're joking because I'd rather just fold the team than hire him. But just in case you're not, no he is not available, he's the head coach at University of Montreal.

Once again, the thing you don't seem to be understanding is that there's no one out there who will be hired as a GM mid-season. You can't just poach someone's assistant GM in October. Likewise, you're not pulling someone off an NFL team or a college team around that time. The only option would be promoting Kyle Walters and I don't see how having some neophyte GM who certainly WON'T be the real GM next season is any better than having Mack remain in the post until the end of the season.

Already done. He stayed pretty healthy throughout college, at least no long term injuries. Missed a game here and there but threw over 350 passes for 3 straight seasons.

No coincidence that the Riders look great and are also almost completely untouched by injury. Let's see how they fare after losing a couple starters to injury like everyone else has.

There is risk in his injury history and the fact that he may be completely useless without Hufnagel, Dickenson, and the Stampeder offence in general. But on the other hand, there is plenty of risk in just going with a guy like Goltz as well. Tough call. The injury history really scares me but the potential upside is huge. It would have to be the right price, I guess.

Yeah I like smoked meat too. Smoked salmon in particular is very good but very smelly. I assume this is what you are talking about.

Sure we should be starting the process of maybe looking for a new GM, but you don't tell the media that while the other guy is still under contract. That's just stupid.

I feel like that's just going down the same road we've already travelled with Buck.

It was awesome!

The problem is the fans. Need to cheer harder!

We're just getting our struggles out of the way early. It will be smooth sailing from here on out.

Unless all the refs hate him and make calls against us because he is our coach/GM.

You're not finding a replacement GM mid-season so I don't see what difference it makes. If Mack gets fired, it will be Walters or Buchko taking care of that stuff for the balance of the season and neither one will be our GM next season. Pointless.

Firing Mack mid-season would be senseless. He gets the rest of the year to turn it around. Playoffs, he keeps his job. Miss the playoffs, loses his job. That simple.

That settles it. The man is brilliant.

Teams don't go to the back of the line because the picks happen simultaneously according to the bids. Meaning we didn't take Poblah before Edmonton took Laurent, the picks happened at the same time.

This guy sounds great

This is how they lined up for the rest of the Toronto game after Sears got injured. Markett looked ok at HB, I thought.

Oh Jesus go back to OB

What was wrong with the comment? I think "No." would have been worse.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming1m Tim Burke asked; Does Justin Goltz have an opportunity to win the #Bombers' starting QB job this week? Burke: "Maybe." And that's it.

Goltz could use a strong performance from Simpson
