Hey there, time traveller!

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have called a major press conference for Friday at 10 a.m. where they’ll announce Joe Mack as their new vice-president of football operations.
Mack, the former Blue Bomber player personnel director from 1984-87, is in Winnipeg and is expected to be unveiled to the city.
Mack exited the CFL to work in the NFL, with the Atlanta Falcons, Washington Redskins (’89-’94; including 1991 Super Bowl champions) then as the assistant GM of the expansion Carolina Panthers (’94-’97) and the Cleveland Browns director of football operations (’98-01).
The skinny: Mack has extensive background in personnel and is a winner, having won with the Bombers and Redskins. Also has knowledge on building franchises from the ground up, working with the Panthers in their infancy and having been assigned by former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue to help with the restart of the Browns.
