I wasn't inconsolable. I was spitting mad watching from my rec room in Calgary. Followed by moments of numbness, disbelief & shock. It was a Cal Murphy initiative. He wanted to change the look of the team.

I thought that 1988 & 90 defense hit hard but the 2021 version just flows to the ball & is much more physical.

Yes. GREAT post!!

One angry Argo fan in social media was wondering what MBT we'd see now? Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde?? This is a prime example why players like Arbuckle should never assume that coaches they previously played for will have their backs on another team. He probably feels that Dinwiddie stabbed him in the back.

No kidding. What's the point? Would the ones saying they were right be happier if they were wrong? MOS came into his own as a HC in 2016 & 17. I was wrong & I'm glad I was. I would defend Mike as a hill to die on, now. Yeah, I wanted him gone but we were geting hammered in 14 & 15. Do the fans that hated Matt Nicholls going to admit that it was Matt Nichols who turned things around for us at qb? It just seems pointless. Just enjoy the fact that we will probably repeat as GC champs. We hope.

A third round pick? That, makes no sense if you're an Argos fan. I know a few longterm Argo fans on social media that aren't happy.

Yeah but a CFL GM doesn't say that kind of thing publicly. They don't diss another struggling team. He was feeling cocky & arrogant. Karma took a few years but it finally got him.

I just remember Dressler getting killed on the play & wondering WTH was LaPo doing?? Now they're wondering the same in Ottawa.

Burnham is a class act & loyal to the Lions. I can't fault that. Walker OTOH is a player for hire like Muamba.

LaPo used to run that fly sweep to Weston Dressler at least a couple of times a game. The guy got lit up more than once & we lost him to injuries because of it. He wasn't fast enough. Our OL wasn't good enough & LaPo was too stubborn to stop. With Buck, we don't see that play as often & Rasheed Bailey's a bigger body who (hopefully) can take the pounding.

Merveilleux.

I always expected them to win at home back then. Lots of times we'd pile on 40 & 50 points on teams. We fed on the Riders & Stamps.

I know. Absolutely agree.

I thought you might have known him. What a putz Wilson is. I can't stand him. It's not that he's a Stamps homer (which he is) but such an arrogant prick on the air. I was so angry that I nearly called in but didn't. I knew he'd just mock me on air which he does after someone calls in. He'd start trashing me after I hung up. He's a rat. We'll kill them second time round. Imagine if we go 13-1 & meet them in the Grey Cup?

Saturday's game was vintage LaPo. Putting both his qbs into situations where they couldn't win. Inexplicable play calls. Little or no support from the bench. Duck Hodges is not a short yardage qb. So, why even put him in that situation? Evans should be doing short yardage. Evans looks like he could be a pretty good qb if he is developed properly. At times, he was flailing away on the field like a drowning man crying for help. Instead of throwing him a life preserver, LaPo threw him a rock.

Let them disrespect us, Mike. We have them right where we want them.

Leopards can't change their spots.

Can we send a Christmas card to the soon to be former Ottawa GM for taking LaPo away???

Only YOU would be arguing about an injury the day after a 45-0 beatdown & clinched 1st place for the first time since 1972.

Bottom line is we've been on both sides of major beatdowns. I'd rather be the hammer than the nail.

Well, I have a better one for you. I was listening to the Stampeders post game show on 770 CHQR here in YYC as one of my friend's likes to phone in. He didn't tonight. During the show, the host Jock Wilson started claiming the league has to investigate the Bombers & "The Canadian Mafia". He says the Bombers have had the best schedule the past 3 seasons & that they are "lined up pefectly" to finish the season with no short weeks between games like every other team has to do. He says it's been this way the past 3 seasons & the Canadian Mafia has an unfair influence over the league so they allow the Bombers to get away with it. He says thye CFL loves the Bombers so they always get the best schedule. Just so much **** from a guy who on the air who always sounds like the biggest ******* in the room. Noeller, do you know Wilson? Milt's loving the Bombers domination this year.

Who was the emergency third string qb for the Lions? I agree with Duane Forde that the 2 qbs on the roster is stupid. They have to go back to 3. What if Reilly had been injured because he had to play?? Just really a short sighted decision on the CFL's part.

The JFK assasination & The Beatles break up.

Yes, feel the saame way. I also don't expect other fanbases to like us either. But don't show a yellow streak here when outted.
