    The Bombers are my emotionally abusive life partner. I should leave but I can't.

  • Our season was done by Labour Day, even though some chose to live in denial. We've had brief moments of competence, but the team has stunk for two seasons. Gonna take a lot of Febreeze to clear out th

  • Tom Higgins is to head coaches what Marcel Bellefool is to offensive coordinators. The very definition of settling. He won't be terrible but he's never going to put you over the top. 

Well, why are we talking about replacements when it's been announced MOS is coming back???

Did I miss some official announcement? Only thing I heard was Doug Brown and Lawless said he was coming back.

The Bombers are leaking out the info to the media. Too embarrassed to make it official.

And, if true, they ought to be.

Taman and Tillman have a lot of baggage, but Higgins might be a better choice for head coach. Higgins' experience as a possible GM is iffy.

 

Tillman by far would be the best choice, he's been actively recruiting for the Ti-Cats and still doing a great job but his reputation is probably too much for the fans to stomach right now.

Tillman is poison. Groping teenage girls...

Coupl of tweaks will go a long way. No extension for anybody unless we see dramatic improvement next year. Make em all earn an extension in their final year. I'm expecting big things if a quality, CFL-experienced OC shakes loose and we pick em up.

I agree no extensions. If Miller, Walters & O'Shea all stay then they're going to have to produce an absolutely remarkable season in 2016 just to survive. If these guys think the pressure was high this past season just wait till next year when the screws will really be tightened. Right from the end of this season thru next season, I foresee it not being very much fun for them the next 12 months if they all last that long. Glad it's not me. Someone like O'Shea won't even have a free season to relax if he's fired as his contract will have expired but I'm sure he'll find work again in the CFL. 

There's no way this franchise is stupid enough to keep MB around are they? Are they?

They were last year and the year before that. They were stupid enough to keep Mack and Tim Burke around for an extra year and to give PLAP a new contract so he wouldn't be a 'lame duck' coach then fire him 8 games into the next season.

MB will get canned but my concern is that there won't be a really experienced CFL OC available. Having both Benny and Hall come available last season was a total fluke. We couldn't possibly be that lucky on O this time could we? I'm not exactly thrilled at the thought of trying out yet another inexperienced guy at OC...

This is also the reaction I get when I watch any TV show this guy is on ...

If Tillman agreed to plastic surgery, hair-dye and a name change.....

Well, guy did his time. At what point do you let someone move on?  

 

Not saying I would want to be friends with the guy but at least he can do the job. 

 

Walters seems like a nice guy. Probably a cool dude. Fricken terrible GM. 

I dont think tillman is the right hire when youve already pissed off a good chunk of ur fan base, would be a pr nightmare. But winning cures everything I guess

Normally, the thought of Tillman as GM would revulse me, but I have had my moments this year when it didn't seem as insane. Ugh.

Why have most people not figured out that Higgins sucks? The only success he had was largely because of the people before him building decent teams.

He did a pretty good job in Edmonton & Calgary where he was the GM. Stamps were something like 3-15 in 2004 under Matt Dunigan & got them a winning record & a playoff spot the next season when he took over as GM & HC. 

He was a .500 coach and GM in Calgary and when they moved him out they became the dominant team they are now. If you want middling you go Higgins.

That 2004 Stamps team was brutal... As bad as the Bombers are now. If you give Walters our GM now all kinds of chances to prove himself then you should give Higgins the benefit of the doubt as well during the time he was with the Stamps. He had very little to build with when he started.

I do not give Walters any chances. I never have. I wasn't in favour of him getting the job.

I have never been a fan of Higgins, especially when he was the officiating head office.
