It was a heck of a run but when the lemon is out of juice it's out of juice.

bone dry my friend...it's basically dust..

Horrid coaching.  Plain terrible decision making.

Quote from: kkc60 on July 27, 2025, 12:56:41 AMi know you have and i appreciate your time here but repeatedly telling people they're wrong when the results are happening right in front of our eyes and offering absolutely no constructive input is just a waste of your time and others. You don't want to see negativity, then don't expose yourself to it.

As for Thomas and what people have said, again, get over it. The Bombers are putting him in over his head. On top of that, youre ignoring context. He's playing extremely poorly and he's in the second highest professional football league in the world. there are expectations for play and he doesn't meet them athletically, which takes him out of the race to begin with. It's honestly crazy to see guys like Oakman, M. Johnson, Ceresna, Mustafa Johnson, etc playing the same position and being told to be content with Thomas
I am here to state my opinion,  we all are
You often get upset if I challenge you
I am fine with criticim
Just because I don't agree with the majority doesn't mean I'm  wrong
The negativity on here peaked just before we went to 5 cups, I wasn't wrong then and took all kinds of heat for supporting Hall, MOS , our D and management
I call it like I see it
Thomas is a good depth cdn rotational player at the end of his career
If you believe I'm wasting your time, don't respond to me
I offer plenty constructive input
You comparisons to Thomas are not even close to fair, needs to be compared  to older cdn dt depth guys

And you know what? That's okay. It sucks. Bad timing with the Grey Cup. But it's been a heck of a ride since 2019.

I'm not sure how much of this is solvable this year but it's safe to say we'll look really different next year.

Enjoy all your favorites from the run. We'll be back.

Quote from: The Zipp on July 27, 2025, 12:40:50 AMthose are off season changes - we swung and missed in the off season and this is what we have.  changes are needed but not sure it's possible to the degree you are suggesting.

There are couch sitters we can get, excpet at OT.  We can get the rest with trades near the deadline.  EDM & OTT will be shedding assets.

Remember, we're sitting on gobs of SMS space.

Nice play Devon Adams! Looks like a world class sprinter compared to the others we have in there at DT!

i've given you actual responses and you reply with absolutely no point besides "no". It's because you challenge any negativity because you can't handle nuance. and we went to five straight cups and lost the last three because we got too cocky and folded like cheap chairs when any sort of adversity came up (before you challenge me, look at what Rasheed Bailey said before GC 2023).

You just proved most posters points at the end there. Thomas is a fine guy to get Kornelson or even maybe Adamson reps. But he's a starter and plays a ton of reps

I'm not going to doomsday this. Too many people did that last year.

Zach clearly hurt. Stanley is out. Brady hasn't gotten going. There are reasons to believe we can get it figured out before the playoffs.
My wife is amazing!
