With Mateas going to the Redblacks, looks like Walters will get his guy.wait...what? It doesn't start till 7?Correct, but the Redblacks beat reporter said Ottawa is taking Mateas. oh ok...thought I had the time wrong...I'm still at work! Don't start the draft yet!!!

While this is true. Taman's MO is to build a powerhouse at any cost, and then rebuild. That's not what I want. Especially because we just had Taman do it...and if you don't win it all...it's even worse, as we all know. I want a huff or a Pop or a Buono. Someone who is going to build a powerhouse that stays that way for years. I'd trade that for a GC win at home 100%. While the jury is still out on the Riders this season and Taman's legacy there, bomber fans have seen this all before which is why it's so funny.

Some rider fans think taman is going to make an offer to Walters for #2 that would include hus....but considering he's currently exploring the nfl...why would anyone risk that?- Cory Watson traded again
This is just another step in the direction the riders where bound to go once they signed Taman.- Bombers sign Jamall Westerman
I don't mind that. But I think Bucknor is better than JFG. But I guess it also depends on....would the INT rec make a bigger impact than the INT db.- Bombers sign Jamall Westerman
Is it June yet?- Bombers sign Jamall Westerman
This is awesome!!!- Sign Willy!
Hey Mike, what about all your long-drawn out speeches about how it's not cool to post in here to prove when you were right? I guess it's different when you do it. Gotcha. You really make me laugh sometimes. Those are Walters' words not Mike's Yes, I know, but he's doing it and bolding it to prove he was right. Nit pick all you want, it's clear what he's doing. I don't know about Mike. But I WAS right. When this whole kerfuffle started, I said it would be resolved before TC and that everyone who was panicking was overreacting. So.....HA!- Brandon Banks Tweets
what was he tweeting?- Whats left on the shopping list
We need to go shopping at Sears.- Around the CFL Offseason Discussion
Meh, just a player saying exactly what the fans want to hear.- New guys - High hopes? Low hopes?
I would rather have a guy that can do both, you know...like most of the other GMs. Yeah, I'm not sure having 25% of your starting lineup really strong and 75% kinda meh is a formula for success. Every GM we've had has demonstrated some positives and some negatives. What with them being human and all... Pff lame humans.- Bombers add Jordan Reaves to neg list
Or maybe we draft two receivers that we value more and just cut him loose. PR and TC spots are not infinite. If the Bombers feel that he is too long term a project and have other bodies they feel can contribute at his position then they would cut him loose. Without knowing how the rest of the offseason unfolds, how he does in mini-camp (yes there is the distinct possibility that he looks incompetent there), and who else we may need PR spots for, I am at a loss as to how anyone can pencil him in as a PR guarantee. He will have to beat the odds to get a PR spot imo. They would be making a mistake to cut him this year IMO. It's not often you find an CND with his size playing a skill position. Even if he is useless at first, keeping him on as a project is almost guaranteed.- CFL proposed rule changes for 2015
Yep if it's an uncontested offensive game it's not exciting. One of the things that makes football great is one side winning those individual physical battles. A receiver making a great catch with e DB all over his back. Now we'll see some minor contact drawing a flag and teams will move 20 yards up field for doing nothing. It's a tough physical game, why are we pussifying it like this? This is the rule: It will allow a defensive player to contact a receiver that is in front of him within five yards of the line of scrimmage, but it will not allow either player to create or initiate contact that impedes or redirects an opponent beyond five yards. There is nothing there that will prevent D players from making plays on the ball or getting position on O players. Not all plays in the past have had D players restricting the movements of O players. That was still illegal contact. Battles for the ball will still be viewed as who has a chance to get the ball. It does not automatically mean interference calls on either side. Let's slow down a bit before the panic sets in. It will not be the flag fest nor the offensive wild spree that is being portrayed. The players know how to play football…they will adapt. I believe you are giving CFL refs way too much credit. Guaranteed the first time a Defensive player jumps up to get a ball and contacts an offensive player while doing so...PI on the D.- Bombers add Jordan Reaves to neg list
excited for this guy. Hoping he shows well and can grab a spot on the roster! 6'5 Cnd Rec would be nice to have around.- Around the CFL Offseason Discussion
Mentioned this on Twitter once or twice in February, but the longer we wait, the more I think he may just have been offered a shot at mini camp or may have been released by now in favor of someone they liked better.- #AskOShea
I told you, Kuale was cut already- #AskOShea
Someone asked what he thought of Volnys comments after he was cut and showed a picture of an article with a headline - Volny on O'shea - "he is a terrible coach" I can't find the article. And that's the first I've heard of him saying anything like this. Anyone have any idea about it? Is it a fake? Also...he never answered my damn questions!!!- CFL proposed rule changes for 2015
The designated import spot has now been replaced by the "wildlife" spot where teams will be allowed to roster either a bear, deer or moose. I would like to see a Moose lined up at DT... good luck stopping that... until they implement the "designated Ford F150 for O-line" rule... then it might be close... Ha, ford F150 tryin to stop a moose? We're better off lining up Will ford against it.- Bombers draft & FA camp prep
It might also be fairly easy to draw him back here after his first contract is up on another team. That's actually why I think we should draft someone else. Let Demski go through his growing pains/development into a pro on another team. Try to get him back here after.- Assimilation (We Are Borg?)
To be so unapologetically ignorant about the steps taken in building this country isn't much better. Ignorant because I refuse to be a guilt-ridden white liberal and apologize for wanting to bring indians into modernity ? Where do we begin to talk to someone about the actual issues, when they start saying things like this and label people who don't agree with their opinion in such an aggressive way. Why is it that everyone who disagrees with you is A) white, B)Guilt Ridden C) Liberal....? Honest question. You are ignorant...I'm not going to explain to you why (cause i'm not your teacher)...but now that you know you are, please act like an adult and find out why. Educate yourself. Also should be noted....using the term "indian" in reference to Native americans is often seen as offensive and....wait of it.....ignorant. - Cory Watson traded again
