The next cup is in Winnipeg so they won't be burning anything to the ground yet.

We win that cup with the exact same lineup except vernon adams as QB

Disappointment of third straight loss in title game will linger longer for Bombers

10) There’s been a lot of buzz this week that Pierce could be on his way to B.C. as the Lions next head coach. Rick Campbell has one more year on his deal as GM and head coach, but the belief is the Lions want a change. The next in line for Lions GM would likely be assistant GM Ryan Rigmaiden, who is a huge fan of Pierce. Ed Hervey is expected to be named the next GM in Edmonton and Campbell would be a good fit there. That leaves a vacancy for GM in Hamilton, which would be appealing, I imagine, to both Bomber assistant GMs, Danny McManus and Ted Goveia.

Ed hervey should be paying half his gm pay check to mike reilly forever

Osh saying that collaros never would have gone back in if it wasnt the grey cup makes zero sense

 

[bustamente]

O'Shea is a very good coach but does and says things that are head scratchers. I don't know if it's an agenda of his and he wants to be proven right but there are players on this team that should not be on this team let alone starting.

He said the same thing about Bighill and Schoen last year.

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

Grey Cup being here be damned, it's time to clean house from the GM on down. Chris Jones, come on down. Third time will be a charm, I would bet on it.

 

[FlyerNutter]

Really good interview with Collaros. Parts of it anyway.

Admitted he couldn’t grip the ball, or throw properly.

Was happy to see the media question O’Shea, and Collaros about Buck’s play calling. That POS can go work for another team frankly.

Asinine play calling all game long. Wish they questioned Youngers incredibly passive 3man rush, but we are likely going to be in for another year seeing that trash.

 

[voyageur]

When I saw the Jonas brothers were doing the half time show I changed the channels. Looks like I missed the best part of the game though

 

[bustamente]

I'll shed no tear if Buck is shown the door, but O'Shea needs to be held accountable for his game day roster next year. 2 Grey Cups doesn't give him carte blanche any more you don't need to dress more Canadians than you need to and use you DA better

Solid 2000 people at the grey cup 'fan rally' guess tanenbaum couldnt afford the parade permit

 

[bustamente]

Everyone seems to think the Bombers will run bad the same team for next but I have my doubts. I expect some changes both on the field and coaching ranks not massive but still changes.

LOL. Toronto fans better embrace the Argos because it will be a LONG time before any other Toronto team will win a championship.

^Apparently we were short a man for Arbuckle's passing TD, and commenters noted that's why we took the unsportsmanlike penalty (went overboard trying to do an intentional offside) and time out at the same time. Coaching mess.

This is unacceptable at the professional level, let alone in the championship game.

If I had to guess, was it possibly caused by the injury to Kramdi and then they tried to swap Alexander and I forget who the other guy was who they moved to safety?

Nick Taylor went to safety

 

[Heldig]

Badly outcoached.

Collaros bad. Stupid to put him back in when he could not hold the ball. It was close at the time. Go Brady and jet sweeps and Qb options the rest of the game.

Didnt stick with the guys that got you there (bully ball).

 

[bustamente]

Some rumours going around before the Grey Cup had Buck Pierce possibly going to BC as HC, that position is now open

 

[Heldig]

Sign Tre Ford to play on the same team as his all star twin brother. It has been a long time since we had an ultra mobile Qb.

Trying to think who the last one was...? I can't think of a mobile starter in like 'ever' - maybe reggie slack?

 

[bustamente]

Tyrell Ford is going to get another look see in the NFL
