"If you’re nervous,” Buono said. “So am I.”

Things seem to have actually degenerated since then.

 

Yup. The bell may toll for thee this time Wally.

Wow what happened to all the Wally lovers who wanted him as the next Bomber GM and spare no expense to get him.?

 

Wally Buono as Bomber GM would be an instant, immediate upgrade over anything we've had since, well, I don't know. A healthy Dave Ritchie?

 

When you hire Wally, you also hire a very good pipeline to talent (Roy Shivers?).

 

And while he may cut guys a little TOO early, at least he doesn't get taken to the woodshed too often or get held over a barrel by prima-donnas.  

 

Ask the other GM's in the league if they respect Wally as a GM. Then ask what they think of Joe Mack.

Wally won't overpay for players that is and always been one of his strengths. If you overpay for even one player you drive up the expectations for all the players. You need to hold to a pay schedule and not let or get emotional about the "business" of football.

and yet people screamed bloody murder when our last GM showed a similar attitude....

This quote was interesting to me as well, said by Dante Marsh:

 

 

 

“Winnipeg gets a hell of an upgrade. We get a guy who has potential, but potential is a coach-killer.”

Potential.  In this case, being Poblah I would imagine.
