Bombers Off-Season Transactions
The Bombers suck, have always sucked, are cheap and every decision they make is wrong. On the other hand Walters and OShea are geniuses and we are more than likely to win the cup this year. There, I've covered every conceivable base in order to win the day. Let the love flow.....lmao

No kidding. I want an investigation done by the league. I believe Jones may be behind it.

When was the last time Calgary went through our trash heap for NAT players? Me likey.

I don't even mind the alligator arms that much....but the timing of those interceptions couldn't have been worse. Just awful in the clutch last year. Worst case scenario type of awful.

It's obviously tongue and cheek based on reality. He's joking...but it's not as far out to lunch as you make it seem. Jones is a weirdo when it comes to moving guys out of position.

Bring him to what...a party? Sure he'd be the guy for that. Football? No thank you.

Grew a bad pair of alligator arms and stone hands last year.

I like Laing but he is a big ticket item. I would look at someone maybe a little less flashy to team up with Thomas.

You'll notice the main detractors are the Jonestown crew....and it's definitely deflection. I just love how every time Jones appears to do something right he just turns around and makes another head scratching move. Chad Owens??

12-6...bah..that was the rebuild prediction. This year he likely goes 14-4 or 15-3. Probably calls them unstoppable.

Two words for your revisionist Rider history....Justin Capicciotti.

LOL...the list of FA's that Chris Jones signs then doesn't utilize correctly and then tosses away is getting to be pretty long and illustrious. They were going NAT at DE last year if I recall correctly. How'd that work out. No one has a worse track record in FA than Jones. Best thing that could happen to the RIders is if he stopped signing FA's.

Bombers extend Sukh Chungh through 2018
It is my understanding that Sukh Chungh loves it here so much that he took a deep discount to extend here. #Riderfanlogic

This might be the best signing we make this week.

Someone needs to explain to him that it's none of his damn business and he should shut the hell up.

Ultra shocked...since he has come out and said on a couple of occasions he only has interest in the Stamps or retirement.

I'm not disputing that his value is higher than the Als offer. All I'm saying is that he has little leverage or ability to do anything about it. All he can do is carve out the best deal he can or demand a trade and take the chance the Als don't stonewall him for 2 years.

I hope so!!

What you are forgetting is that the Als hold the exclusive rights on him for 2 years from the time he first rejects their offer. This is not a Westerman or FA situation. This is a draft pick/exclusive rights situation and that gives Montreal the leverage. Please tell me what Foucault has proven in the CFL....nothing that I am aware of. He is in the same boat as the Gaydosh's and Greenwood;s etc that came back after failed NFL stints.

The reason first rounders sign initial contracts in that price range isn't a reflection of how good a player they are, it is a reflection on the fact that one team has exclusive rights to them. SHOULD Foucault get more...sure. Should JSJ have gotten more last year, or Sukh gotten more out of his rookie deal etc. etc., of course they should have. They just simply aren't in a bargaining position and therefore that is what the entry level price of a first rounder is. Not saying this isn't on the low end....just that it's not so outrageously low that there would be any grounds for anyone to do anything about it. It would be nearly impossible for the CFLPA or anyone else to prove bad faith in the negotiations. The offer is in line with first round salaries. Like it or not, Foucault has proven absolutely nothing in this league.

Most first rounders sign in the 80-90k range Mike....not sure why this surprises you? Josiah St. John held out for a good portion of the season so that he could get 100k a year over 3 years. It may be perceived as low for Foucault and by fans, but there is little the CFLPA could do about this offer really. They can't say it's unfair because it may be low but not unreasonably so. It's up to Foucault to make them blink....demand a trade...get an agent....make some noise.

You may be right. He predicts Grey Cup nearly every year.

Pederson also picked them to have 12 wins last year so this is not surprising. In fact, I don't think there has ever been a year where Pederson doesn't predict a great team. I would like to know in what dream world he sees a comparison between Jones and Bellichek?
