    I wonder if the Bombers might consider bringing back Alex Ross.

    This poll is ridiculous imo. It's set up to give the appearance that every responder is in favor of getting rid of one of Lapo or Nichols. I would wager that the vast majority of Bomber fans would pick neither if it were an option....but then that doesn't advance anyone's agenda does it. Honestly, we have a 6-2 team and we have a select few old men yelling at clouds. Fire a coach or QB of a 6-2 team....smoke some more crack.
  3. Sent shiver down my spine. Reminded me of my wife nagging me. Repeat...repeat....repeat...lol. I HEARD YOU THE FIRST TIME!!! AAAAGH!
  4. Our OL was absolute crap last game.
  5. Two words: Huffer's envelopes
  6. Here is how I see it. You have never picked Calgary to lose EVER. The rest of what you say means nothing because of that fact.
  7. For a short time in 2014 he was marketing a flush toilet he thought he invented. Sadly, he was informed that plumbing has existed since the Roman Empire.
  8. Your cop friend is either the most unprofessional cop around, is a liar, playing you for a fool, or doesn't exist at all.
  9. He wanted to have NFL weight in the CFL.
  10. The big difference between Chapman and all these guys is that the NFL showed zero interest in him before or shortly after his draft and he still never even considered the CFL. He didn`t show up for the Draft camp either. I`m really unsure what made Hamilton think he would play when every indication was that he had zero interest in the CFL.
  11. Bilikudi was a 3rd rounder that we took a flyer on but kinda knew he wasn't real interested but in the 3rd round what the hell. Mulumba might be a more apt comparison.
  12. What a massive fail in the interview process by Hamilton. From day one it was pretty apparent that Chapman had absolutely no interest in the CFL.
  13. I thought we were talking about Lawler? My bad I guess. Honestly did not even noticed Walker was in and the light bulb never went on that he and Lawler were different players, lol
  14. Bob Irving can think what he wants but Walker was deemed to slow for the NFL with a 4.65/40. Lucky has a 4.30/40. Unless Lucky has slowed considerably or Lawler has shave a couple tenths of a second off his 40, there is absolutely no comparison.

    It's not a work ethic problem in BC, it's a talent problem. They have the worst OL and DL in the league by a country mile and both need a serious talent upgrade. Until then they will keep on losing. Football is won in the trenches.
  16. Nope. A ton of women beaters are successfully prosecuted without the cooperation of the victim.
  17. That is true.
  18. Fair enough. Mack was a total goof, no doubt about it. I just think it is classless piling on if this Insider report came from anyone currently with the Bombers. Be professional..Macks been gone for 5 years.
  19. I doubt they would have taken 2nds for Ray. Their ask would likely have been for a starting NAT and more. We were not in a position to part with NAT talent.
  20. At the moment they have evolved into the league's best imo.
  21. I didn't hear anyone questioning that. Just pointing out that Walters/OShea/Lapo had growing pains of their own that we went through. They have morphed into maybe the league's best trio but let's not pretend it was all smooth sailing right from the beginning. As a rookie, Walters had a terrible first year. Drew Willy....need I say more. Since then he has redeemed himself. I just find it disingenuous when INSIDERS from the Bombers (unless it's Lapo) feel the need to take swipes at a GM that is 5 years removed from here. Especially, when they were a part of the brain trust he relied on....and don't give me this crap that Mack just did whatever he wanted on draft day. He never scouted a NAT EVER. He was going off the scouting reports handed to him by one Kyle Walters. If Walters is salty about Mack picking Pencer all those years ago he shouldn't have provided the name with a glowing endorsement.
  22. Noted by who? Walters? At the end of the day Walters supplied him with these gems and if Walters was immune to draft busts we wouldn't know such illustrious names like Ekakitie.
  23. Walters was AGM and head of Canadian recruitment for the Bombers at that time. He wears some of the stink as well and so does Lapo who lobbied hard for Mack to draft Etienne. Contrary to popular belief these decisions are not made in a bubble. Mack didn't pull these names out of his arse. They were supplied to him by the scouts along with recommendations and discussion on where they fit on the draft board. Colossal high pick draft busts didn't end when Mack left....just saying.
  24. Highly doubt it is anyone in a current management/coaching role with the Bombers. They wouldn't throw Buck under the bus like that.
  25. My Dad owned the hotel at Grand Beach for a number of years in the 60's and 70's.
