I asked who would you cut in order to keep Lalama and your response was Chad Rempel. What am I not understanding about you cutting our starting long snapper in order to keep a backup LB?

I assume they will suspend him prior to the WSF. They likely haven't had to do anything so far, since he was one-gamed for game 18. But if you won't change your role when asked, I consider that "quiting". I do too (think he quit), but you said he was "canned" so I was looking for clarification. He's listed as being on the IR and to add to the confusion one report says his role was changed and another says his position was changed. One of the biggest lies in pro sports is that you don't lose your position due to injury. That may very well have happened here too but I just don't know. I do know the timing of this sucks.

Rios didnt played well there. Maston only played there last games, I think. Another stupid move by MOS. MOS sure isn't saying much about this.

And how can anyone try and put a decision made by a player on the coach? Gaitor feels he's bigger than the team, decided not to accept a different role, and chose to be a clown and bail on the team. That's on him and him alone. No single player is ever bigger than the team. Just curious but does it make sense that Gaitor just quit the team for no reason other than a role/position change? I mean, sure, it's possible, but it doesn't pass the smell test to me. I'd sure like to have been a fly on the wall and heard both sides of that conversation. But in the CFL the coach is the supreme commander and whatever he says goes. We have only heard O'Shea's side of it and he is being extremely terse with the one-word answers. I hope one day we get to hear Gaitor's side of the story. I mean, he was, after all, a Blue Bomber player. I think he's deserves better from us than immediate condemnation. Then and only then might I make a determination as to whether or not he made a selfish decision.
November 10, 20195 yr comment_440868 Condemning the man before he's had a chance to defend himself? I agree.

It's unprofessional, disrespectful, and childish. That's a solid jerkstore move. What exactly is there to defend, anyway? I'm condemning what he did - and that alone.
November 12, 20195 yr comment_442489 Gaitor was getting paid a pittance really. I am thinking he wanted to go back to SAM and hope he could parlez that into a more lucrative extension this offseason. When that went off the table he decided to stay home with his new fiance and try to force his release. Maybe he has designs on the XFL?
November 12, 20195 yr comment_442492 O'Shea is the wrong guy to that you are putting yourself above the rest of the team to. As said earlier "Fit in, or **** off".

His initial contract was very team-friendly but he had signed an extension in January. I haven't seen anything reported about the numbers of his new deal. His initial deal had a low base (60k) so maybe there were bonuses that he didn't think he'd get with the role change and decided it wasn't worth coming back.
November 12, 20195 yr Author comment_442514 i think I remember seeing something promoted along those lines. Gaitor aid was it?

November 12, 20195 yr comment_442630 I wouldn't be surprised if the Bombers are in meetings today and doing a walk-through on the field. In the past the team has held practices early in the week that they haven't announced to the media.
