Anyhow, as much of a Willy fan as I am (and I hope he goes to Toronto and becomes an elite QB) this makes us a better team, and that's all that matters! just not when he plays us. Its a very good situation for him. I hope he doesnt come back to haunt us.

September 12, 20168 yr comment_222789 What gets me excited is we'll probably get the third or fourth pick in the CFL Draft next spring along with wherever we finish. That is awesome. Edited September 12, 20168 yr by iso_55

September 12, 20168 yr comment_222792 How can a veteran GM like Popp mishandle the salary cap so badly?
September 12, 20168 yr comment_222794 I think the Bombers are strong on Defence, but could really benefit from another offensive weapon.

A guy who played NCAA FCS & has been in front of the media since high school. If he can't handle a few reporters & media personalities in Winnipeg then he has issues. Yeah I don't buy that.
September 12, 20168 yr comment_222799 Coaching staff really must be high on Davis and Bennett, as KG could easily be gone/retire this offseason

Gives us an experienced backup and a guy who can show Davis and Bennett how you walk back to the sideline with dignity no matter how much you just screwed up. You just can't put a price on that.

September 12, 20168 yr comment_222809 Walters better get Nichols on an extension the day the season is over. Chances are he'd be loyal to us, but if he walks to another team this could be a blow up of epic proportions lol
September 12, 20168 yr comment_222812 willy will be the starter for Toronto soon enough. Great deal for him.
September 12, 20168 yr Author comment_222813 Here is the quote from Walters re: Willy and the media: “Now, I anticipate Drew going to Toronto and getting under Scott and it almost being like a breath of fresh air for him to be, truth be told, away from this media market and the scrutiny he was under. He took it pretty good in the media negatively and it might be good for him and his family to be in a market where he isn’t under the microscope like he was here.”

Walters knows this is a huge gamble that could backfire on him so he is trying to make it sound like he did it for Drew. Everyone in the Peg is drunk on this winning streak and have thrown caution to the wind. Reality is gonna bite hard!
September 12, 20168 yr comment_222823 It doesn't hurt to add a player of Heath's calibre when you consider some of the QBs we'll be facing as we head into the playoffs. I agree with the others who say the next move will be for a receiver.
September 12, 20168 yr comment_222824 man that quote is a long way from "he can't handle the media"....
