August 8, 201311 yr comment_13190 Actually yes Tomorrow's paper: In an effort to save his job and fix the QB position, Joe Mack has signed QB Mrs. Muamba to a three-year, $300,000 a year contract. "We're hopeful that with Buck Pierce's guidance and Gary Crowton's dynamic scheming that she will flourish in our system," said Mack.

August 8, 201311 yr comment_13194 Ken Wiebe @WiebeSunSports21m “@BobIrvingCJOB: Firing of mack no surprise--come to think of it neither is the clumsy handling of it” couldn't have said it better myself
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13197 So, does this mean Walters will actually get a chance to try to turn things around, or maybe Burke get's a bigger say in things?
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13198 The way this BOD leak is exploding on Twitter, I think old Garth should just legally change his name to Botchko.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13200 Why do we even have a CEO if the board has the power of veto on every decision he makes?
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13201 What it boils down to is this ... Whether it was meant to be or not, Mack is going to get fired and it's only a matter of time now. This leak is absolute horseshit and it makes our front office look even more bush league than normal.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13202 I would have waited but am ok with the decision. Dislike how poorly this has been handled. Sad when you realize your team is run like a clown show. Would like to see the safe, reliable Tom Higgins hired.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13203 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. But it's not really that, it's the next move that might be in the works. Nobody saying he's going to sabotage anything, but as of today...he owes the Bombers nothing of value that he has knowledge of.

Would like to see the safe, reliable Tom Higgins hired. Higgins isn't known for making trades or any type of bold player moves, which this team desperately needs.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13209 The way this BOD leak is exploding on Twitter, I think old Garth should just legally change his name to Botchko. Why is Buchko being blamed for this ? He wasn't the leak, it was a member of the B.O.D that opened their mouth to Lawless. Garth did his job, he wants Mack fired, but needed approval from the board.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13210 Apparently the only one going through proper channels in this whole fiasco IS Buchko and he's being eviscerated here. Lots of misplaced anger 'round these parts.

August 8, 201311 yr comment_13214 Mike already posted the Blue Bomber board's photo. Here's the search committee appointed to find the next GM.

August 8, 201311 yr comment_13217 Asper should have never been allowed back on the board. BTW there's only 12 names there.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13218 How are they supposed to fire the leak if no one knows who it is? One little rat boy flaps his gums to Lawless and the Bombers make an even bigger gong show out of this. Im all for removing the rat but there really isn't any way of identifying him unless Lawless give up his source and that aint gonna happen. As for the new GM......Im all for McEvoy. 18 years with the Lions, and Wallys right hand man. Hes learned from one of the best, is Canadian, and knows the CFL and the role. IMO there really isn't any other option that would offer as much stability and experience.

Half of them are morons and the other half are corrupt. Plus two kickers.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13223 Good point. Yes, I suppose. Though why is Botch making these calls before reportedly going on vaca? "Hey, Board of Guys Who Can't Keep a Secret, I recommend we fire our GM...but not til net week as I have to take my kid to 6 Flags."
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13224 Friesen suggesting on Twitter that the leak is Buchko himself, to take the heat off of him. Good Lord Paul....

"Hey, Board of Guys Who Can't Keep a Secret, I recommend we fire our GM...but not til net week as I have to take my kid to 6 Flags." The Board has a scheduled meeting next week, don't think that Buchko's vacation has anything to do with it, but flame on. Friesen suggesting on Twitter that the leak is Buchko himself, to take the heat off of him. Good Lord Paul.... Should we really expect anything less from Friesen.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13227 Friesen suggesting on Twitter that the leak is Buchko himself, to take the heat off of him. Good Lord Paul.... sounds like someone is jealous of not getting leaked-to.
August 8, 201311 yr comment_13228 The Board has a scheduled meeting next week, don't think that Buchko's vacation has anything to do with it, but flame on. Should we really expect anything less from Friesen. Exactly. Given the Board has a history of stuff like this, why not hold off on telling someone your recommendation?
