Reality is you can go 4-0 and still miss the playoffs. Or you can go 0-4 and make them. The point I was making, is games 1 through 4 (I'd argue even up to 7 or 8 ) dont make or break seasons. BC winning or losing game 1 will not be a large factor in how the season turns out for either team.
Fair point. But those point could determine where you play your first playoff game

Meh, the first 4 games of the season are basically pre season. CFL is such a long road....1st game mean absolutely nothing in the grand scheme.
Go 0-4 miss the playoffs by 2 points and come back and say that.

I don't see what an unproven Head Coach and a journey man DC screams instant success for, either.
Instant? Maybe not.
But maybe.

You also have a mostly new coaching staff.
I'm not sure that's got much to do with anything. ClayBrooks and Stubler are not rookies. I'm not keen on Jarious Jackson, but I'll give him 1 more year with a solid offence to see what he can do

Defence and depth are massive question marks for you guys this year. Reminds me a lot of the 2018 Eskimos. I think you will finish anywhere from 2nd to 4th in the West. I do like your team more than the Riders or Eskimos right now.
They are massive question marks about depth everywhere for every team in May

DE, DT, S, C, SB, CB.
That's not " a lot". Centre is a competition with the 2 incumbents from last year. Don't agree with DT. We need a proven DT.
Training camp will plug what few holes are there. Extremely please with the new coaching staff and who Hervey has brought in.

Yeah that roster is far from impressive. But if anyone can make it work, it's Mike Reilly. Lots of holes though.
Where?

Not banned that I am aware of?
Must be over. Thought I noticed a banned tag under your name recently

The mods and their handpicked half a dozen internet tuff guys, bully every member over there into submission. Support their views or face the ban hammer. I have never seen such disrespect and abuse of a forum by it's own moderators in any forum...anywhere. CRF is just completely blinded by the traffic it creates. Doesn't care that most of his forum members lost loyalty to his forum. Somebody will start a rival Rider forum someday and will take a ton of his active members with them to get away form the likes of Rider Stronson, BSD, VoR, and the other bullies. When they all leave the clique will eat it's own.
When I was a member there a couple years ago, they would constantly try goad me into banning offences that violated their own code of conduct....and it was the mods doing it.
It's only a handful. There are many who are good to chat with. The ones yelling troll every chance they get are to be avoided.
How long is your ban for? 😋

Well, I hear that Lapo is steaming mad. He plans to sulk and deep six the Bomber O, this season, out of spite. . He is also going to forgo personal grooming and wear Green and White on the sidelines in protest. Paul plans to frequent Lyle E. Style's bookstore, and post regularly on RF, to get out his side of the story.
I know all this...because unlike Rider fan information....my sources are impeccable.Speaking of Lyle, whatever became of that strange miscreant?
-
In any event Jones leaving has made a bit of a mess of things. Left Sask in a bit of a lurch and subsequently the Riders are causing grief amongst other teams by wanting their coaches. No good.
Find a coach Riders and leave other teams alone at this point in time.
-
So the Bombers said no to the Riders on LaPolice, and according to RFs LaPo is pissed because the Bombers held him back.
The Riders just interviewed Dickenson. What if they tell him no?

On February 4, 2010, the Blue Bombers hired Paul LaPolice as head coach. He was OC in Saskatchewan then. That was fine. But it's unacceptable to the Wade Miller-led Winnipeg regime to have LaPolice interview for another
#CFL head coaching job in January? The month prior? How?Was LaPolice contract with the Riders up end of 2009? Any link to that?
As I explained to the Rider folks, training camp started in June in ’10. It starts 2.5 weeks earlier this year as the schedule moved up. If that's the case the equivalent closing window on coaching hires would be last week.

You forgot to mention he also broke the Kent Austin leaving story, if you ask him even 10 years later, he'll still tell you all about it.
Does anyone know who he is?

Do we have proof that Stronson isn't Farhan's nom de plumme?
Lol. Well Stronson seems to have a pretty good handle on exactly what Lapo is feeling. Or so he says.

Screw Farhan, he still thinks there is a chance that Bighill will be a Lion this year.
Farhan is a good guy.

The reality is that it's just too late in the game, despite what people say, to let OC's go and replace them. The REDBLACKS and the Bombers have nothing against their people advancing, not do they have anything against the Riders, they just have to look out for their own team's well being.They have a FA game plan to deploy soon and a fan base to answer to.

They are a testy bunch over there right now. Understandably so I guess.

Understood.
No, was referring to Pederson.
I know you're not a Mark Washington fan. Anything I should know about Robin Ross, Randy Melvin?
HAM just hired them.
They are good football guys. I like Ross. Washington has no clue. Just when he figures out the Lions can't play zone and are a man to man D he sends them back into zone and we get steamrolled Frustrating.

My point being that when people are in the grip of an addiction, they are often devious, dishonest and manipulative. Those who dry out and overhaul their lives as per the 12 steps are the ones who flourish, but those who simply abstinent (often by being compelled) are the ones who struggle and often fall down again because they have not done the work on themselves.
Got it. Thx
