Posted June 21, 201312 yr comment_5796 Herb Zurkowsky @HerbZurkowsky11h I'm told be a very reliable source the #Als have cut Quinton Porter. That means rookie Tanner Marsh has made the team.
June 21, 201312 yr comment_5808 No point in bringing Porter in, we might as well sign McPherson if we are going to do that...
June 21, 201312 yr comment_5811 If our choice (Not that it would be) was between Brink and Porter, I'd be at the airport to pick Brink up. Porter is useless.
June 21, 201312 yr comment_5812 Montreal Gazette's Herb Zurkowsky tweeted that Porter asked for his release a week ago when it became clear he wouldn't be the backup to AC. Guess Hawkins said no. Gave him one last shot yesterday.
June 21, 201312 yr comment_5813 If Porter were going to be the answer, he would've been the answer already. Pass.
June 22, 201312 yr Author comment_5814 Porter asked for his release because there are so many other teams out there wanting him as well?
June 22, 201312 yr comment_5815 Career CFL backup. Seemed happy to carry the clipboard. Being #2 more important than being #1. Nope.
June 22, 201312 yr comment_5818 I'm guessing he'll retire. Sounded like he was leaning that way before Montreal signed him anyways.

June 22, 201312 yr comment_5832 Adding yet another QB that wont help you isnt a plan, its' just Spin the Wheel of QBs Mack has been playing for awhile now.
June 22, 201312 yr comment_5842 no rush to bring him in just yet... there's at least a few weeks till your regulars are injured and unable to play.
June 22, 201312 yr Author comment_5845 no rush to bring him in just yet... there's at least a few weeks till your regulars are injured and unable to play. Boy I hope Toronto goes back to their natural position of sucking the hind *** this year...
June 22, 201312 yr comment_5851 Boy I hope Toronto goes back to their natural position of sucking the hind *** this year... our natural position is having the most Grey Cup Championships and the best record by far in the Grey Cup game. and as for hoping for us to fall on hard times goes: yeah... hard times will find us eventually... but as long as Jim, Scott, Chris and Ricky are here... we'll take our chances, thanks.

It's embarrassing when people refer to athletes by their first names like they're friends.
June 22, 201312 yr comment_5862 Jim Barker is probably the furthest thing on earth to an athlete but your point is well taken. As for the topic at hand, Porter when first signed was the worst backup QB in the entire league and there is no chance in all hell that he ends up here. Brink is actually better than he is and I would argue even Levi Brown is better. I loved it when Porter came in at QB against us because he's a turnover waiting to happen. The real interesting guy here is Seth Williams who I thought was the best player in the Montreal secondary last year. I know we aren't bringing him in but a man can dream...
June 22, 201312 yr comment_5870 It's embarrassing when people refer to athletes by their first names like they're friends. Huh? Why is saying just their first names mean he's friends with them? We know who he refers to.
June 23, 201312 yr comment_5896 The funny thing is Winnipeg could have easily had Jim, Scott, Chris and maybe Ricky, but we chose Joe, Paul, and Buck instead

Easy to attract the top coaches when you're willing to pay for them.
June 23, 201312 yr comment_5902 Only if you believe that the Bombers would have ponied up the money to pay Milanovich and Jones.... Easy to attract the top coaches when you're willing to pay for them. Barker was emphatic during his interview with the Bombers that his plan was to bring Milanovich. Probably would have been cheaper than paying for all the ex-coaches and current coach. Are the Bombers still paying LaPo? Milanovich wanted to coach for Barker. Just saying... I feel that have the Board of Directors and their tunnel vision is preventing this club from succeeding. They are the ones who pull the strings and select the puppets. Hopefully one day this team will be purchased by a local investor and dismantle the old boys club and allow it to be the successful franchise it once was.
