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.

November 1, 20159 yr comment_165189 I know a former football person who had a conversation with Bob Irving. Irving says that the three amigos will be back as well.

November 1, 20159 yr comment_165192 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.

November 1, 20159 yr comment_165214 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165221 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165240 There's no way this franchise is stupid enough to keep MB around are they? Are they?
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165241 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165242 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...

Oh ya yikes, nevermind ... This is also the reaction I get when I watch any TV show this guy is on ...

Walters seems like a nice guy. Probably a cool dude. Fricken terrible GM.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165252 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
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165275 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165284 I'd rather have a newbie than Marcel. We know Marcel is terrible. At least the newbie offers hope.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165327 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165329 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165333 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165338 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.
November 1, 20159 yr comment_165341 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.
