August 8, 201311 yr comment_13162 No I did not....believe what you want it makes no difference to me. I don't post things on hear for laughs or because I am a frustrated fiction writer. Have a nice day.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13163 So you admit that you basically just pulled your last post out of your ass?  oh no. He knows that Barker was speaking in secret code. It's just so obvious.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13164 So if Mack is getting fired, does the board immediatly remove his ability to make moves?
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13165 are you and Higgins secret lovers or something?  Not that there's anything wrong with that.... Nah, just beating the drum. Saw the guy's work first hand here in Calgary. When I see some of the names people are throwing out with no experience, I just shake my head as we have gone down the same road so may times before & we're still lost as a team.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13167 Crap. Hope (if true) that Higgins is the next GM. He brings a lot to the table and is a classy guy to boot.  Part of me wishes the BOD turn the tables on Botchko and turf him instead of Mack though Â
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13169 well here's something.... what is the GM hears the rumours he's being fired and decided to go out in the blaze of sour grapes and starts gutting the roster just for spite? I don't believe he'd do that, but it's the risks you take when you leak **** like that. I think if he did that it would probably prevent him working somewhere else as football is a closed community & word gets around. Plus mack has been a football man his entire working life so why jeopardize a life's work? EVERYBODY has been fired in football. They all get it. Close the door one place & open it somewhere else.

August 8, 201311 yr comment_13172 Hope you're right. He's my first choice.  Even though he's not as "sexy" a choice as some of the others, we really need some stability and experience in the big chair.  Your "misses the sidelines" is a bit of a red flag to me -- I hope he's smart enough to hire an O-minded coach and then focus on finding players, not meddling on the field.  Stability and experience would serve the Bombers so good right now...  I'd like our next GM to be someone who has been a part of the CFL landscape for years. To have the connections to bring in the best coaches. To know the game well enough to know if it is your QB that is the problem, your OL, your coaching, etc. To know my competition and the market well enough to be able to enter into a trade to get guys that can help us, rather than avoiding trades like a dirty word.  Higgins is my #1 choice, and Database is #2 right now. Not that Mike Murphy couldn't be great... but because I'd err on the side of a longtime CFL guy with connections and knowledge from across the league... to replace a longtime NFL guy (Mack) who seemingly didn't foster those relationships.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13173 Side discussion but when can we get a new board? I'd prefer Mark Chipman just buy the team and fire all the BOD
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13175 If Higgins was interested in Ottawa, Regina 2 years ago and WPG 3 years ago, I'd say we can get him.  http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/11/23/exclusive-cfl-director-of-officiating-tom-higgins-wants-to-be-ottawa-teams-gm  http://globalnews.ca/news/1785/tom-higgins-interested-in-roughriders-vacant-gm-position/  http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/story/2010/01/04/sp-cfl-bluebombers-higgins.html?ref=rss  I say also that the timing is right because we have the possible opportunity to trade for a QB and it appears that no one will trade with Mack.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13176 one thing is for certain, the next GM is walking into a hell of a lot better situation than Mack walked into in terms of the roster. Not necessarily. Simpson, Matthews, and Hall are all FA this off season
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13178 Mike Murphy works for the Dolphins who have been one of the biggest importer of talent from CFL.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13179 I guess there's no classy way to stab somebody in the back. so ,yeah, I'm calling it classless. Shame on who's behind this.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13180 My guess is that the board is still divided on Joe Mack, and the member who leaked this news wants him gone. Â It's going to be pretty hard to vote to keep Mack after this.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13181 Muamba as well  does he have any other siblings that can't play for sheeit that we can overpay for just to keep him around?
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13182 does he have any other siblings that can't play for sheeit that we can overpay for just to keep him around? Trade Muamba brothers to Montreal for Edem and a first round pick next draft. The Bombers are in a position where they cannot replace Cauchy without pissing off Henoc.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13185 Trade Muamba brothers to Calgary for Edem and a first round pick next draft. The Bombers are in a position where they cannot replace Cauchy without pissing off Henoc. Â Might be hard to get Edem out of Calgary when he's in Montreal .. ;-)
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13188 And you know that how? The way he left the Stamps. Argos were fined for tampering such that it was.
