Can we please set up a crowd funder page so Pivotman can get a smart phone with a spellchecker that actually works? LOL!

Just reading the Halifax blog and one of the posters indicated that the Eagles were interested in Tourigny but couldn't afford him? Anyone know anything about this?

It was a poster who would have liked for the Eagles to have got him, no indication that the Eagles were even pursuing him. And I highly doubt they were.

I do not read the post CB Post everyday, so I may stand to be corrected. It has been 2 weeks now since the Eagles have been eliminated from the playoffs, and just over 4 weeks to the draft. The Eagles are the biggest sports draw in Cape Breton, and their GM's contract is supposedly expired. Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't there be more reporting questions asked on this topic?

cape Breton Post does a shitty job covering the Eagles. There was an article in the Halifax Herald last week and in the article they said that Dumont's contract is not up until the end of May. In any event, a decision should be made pretty soon.

That would involve the reporters there having to do some actual reporting work and ask some tough questions. The Cape Breton business community frowns upon that so the Post doesn't even seem to bother. You can hire an 8yr old and get the same game writeups. They all follow the same pattern and end up with the same cliche'd quotes from the 1 player or coach they get access to after games. I know many who just stopped reading and are not missing anything but the obituaries...

I was of the opinion based on something I read that Dumont had signed a new contract to again be the GM/Head Coach but according to what I read on here this is NOT the case ??

2 days since the Bowers news broke.
CB Post had an article out, that was literally 10 minutes of researching telling people the following:
Bowers is back in the draft.
He was selected 4th overall and never reported.
Dumont was adamant about not trading him.
3rd straight year a 1st wouldnt report.
Eagles pick 9th and 13th in the draft.
Dumont couldn't be reached for comment on Tuesday.
So while our GM heads toward the end of his deal and huge decisions are being made(by who???) the people expected to pay for season tickets can't even get a fucking off season quote from a coach, manager, or member of the ownership group about things like the recent seasons downfall, plans for the future, status of the GM, etc.
All this in an age where the people interested in the team are craving any and all info and are able and willing to absorb it on any platform. Podcast. Newspaper. Twitter. Facebook. You name it. What does CB Eagles personnel give to its fans:
Absolutely nothing.
What a joke this franchise is. Absolute slap in the face to treat fans like this as there's no excuse for it.

Well, there is no comparison.
