  1. OSEG wants to save money having Dinwiddie wearing 5 or 6 hats & doing everything badly. The old sayinmg, "You get what you pay for" is sure coming to true for the RedBlacks & their fans. OSEG cheaped out & got the shitty team they deserve. Unfortunately, they have killed their fanbase as well. Heads need to roll & not just players.
  2. Popp's a consultant. Who knows what power he has? He's likely to be Team President next year. Dinwiddie needs one or two of his hats taken away. You want to manage then you can't coach or vice versa. He made the same mistake Dunigan made in Calgary. He was the QB Coach, OC & HC. He was also GM & head of Scoutinf. he faikled miserably. When the new owners took over inj 2005, Dunigan was immediately fired. Dinwiddie has just as many hats. No one can be successful in a situation like this.
  3. Unforunately, people make horribly bad decisions. You play with fire & get burned. Before anyone comes at me saying my comments are callous & uncaring. That I don't know anything about addictions, I come from a family of addicts & alcoholics. I never became an addict or alcoholic myself, but my father & son were alcoholics & it has been a nightmare all of my life. I couldn't help may Dad when he was alive as I was just a kid. I couldn't help my son because he has totally cut me off from contact. It's like I relived my entire childhood thru my son's addictions which was a terrible experience. I have heard he has gone to rehab & is a recovering alcoholic. Has a good full time job. Married. But we don't talk anymore.
  4. They can't rush Collaros back with a concussion. For one, the effects may take months to go away & he may decide to retire. Second, he goes out early & gets another concussion. Then the Bombers & CFL open themselves up to a lawsuit. Collaros isn't stupid. He won't go out & play if his head isn't right yet.
  5. I wouldn't put Collaros missing more games every year all down to injury his advancing age or injury progression. Blame Walters & Osh for allowing the OL to deteriorate every year by continuing to play players who really have no business being on the field or letting good young linemen get away. Pat Neufeld & Stanley Bryant have no business being on the field & should have been replaced three years ago. They let Liam Dobson, JeMarcus Hardrick & Michael Couture leave in free agency. Their replacements have been hit & miss at best. The Walters draft record the past 5 years for new OL isn't very good. You have to wonder who'll be leaving this off season the way Mutt & Jeff run things. They pay Collaros $550,000 & then cheap out or let old men who should be in a football home for seniors play as long as they want & fans wonder why Collaros & Brown keep getting hurt.
  6. Why would anyone pay NHL ticket money to watch that?
  7. What the hell kind of conversation is this?? https://media.tenor.com/GgIF5VYZArkAAAAM/what-are-you-talking-about-huh.gif
  8. Who cares about the Raptors?
  9. It would have been interesting if Captain Pike & crew had run ins with the Klingons, (more of) the Gorn, Romulans, Andoria, the Tellerites, etc. They certainly got away from any of that. Instead we got 4 Vulcans, a musical, characters from Dr M'Benga's daughter book & the muppets.. I'd turn on the newest episode & be instantly disappointed... JFC. We needed more Trek sci fi & didn't get it.
  10. I think most coaches would want to. He probably wonders if he could be as successful as some of the gujys he coached & played against. I think iot would bother him if he never tried. He needs to just stay the you know what out of Ottawa.
  11. To me, the rule changes were made to make it easier for a CFL field to fit into soccer stadiums where 2 teams can share the facility. It's easier to fit a CFL field into these stadiums. I'm thinking Halifax & QC.
  12. What an up & down season for SNW. Last episode sucked. Just one more left & 7 for the entire series. How hard is it to give us 10 quality episodes??
  13. The CFL's next Head Coach???
  14. I could draw Hawkman when I was a pre-teen.
  15. Grant went 7-9 in 1963 & finished fourth in the West out of the playoffs. The bottom fell out of the team in 64 finishing 1-14-1 & dead last in the CFL. They retooled in 65 & went 11-5 & got to the Grey Cup & lost. Grant's last kick at the can for Grey Cups.
  16. At least we don't draft dead guys... Yet.
  17. It's time to call it a career. Of course, Osh hired him as he's clueless when it comes to offensive football. I honestly believe our head coach would have trouble putting together a playbook for 11 year old pee wees.
  18. The day that McDavid leaves the Oilers then that city will be on the same destination level by free agents as Winnipeg.
  19. Oh yeah, Nik would be so happy to return here. "Hey, I would be!!", said Patrick Laine.
  20. Didn't work out for him very well in 1965. The Grey Cup that year was nicknamed, "The Wind Bowl" due to sustained winds of 70 kph gusting to almost 90. Pinned deep in their end 3 times against the wind, Grant elected to concede 3 safeties or 6 points. That was the margin of defeat in a 22-16 loss to the Ti Cats. It should be noted that in that era, conceding a safety meant the conceding team would retain possession at the 35 yard line. For Grant, it was a way to get better field position rather than punt short into the wind & risk giving up a touchdown. Ed Ulmer really struggled as Bomber punter that day. I believe that at least one of his punts went backwards in that gale & was recovered by Hamilton BEHIND the LOS for a loss. That rule was changed a number of years later. Today, after conceding two points the team doing so has to kick off. No, 1965... The Lions played the Ti Cats in 64. The Lions won their very first Grey Cup that season by a score of 34-24.
  21. He's still more useful than Jake "I'm On An Island. For Godsake Send For Help" Thomas. Not that Osh sets the bar that high on this team, anyway.
  22. I am totally ******* underwhelmed. Our scouting is absolute ****.
  23. Did Zach suffer a concussion? The season is a marathon & not a sprint. Especially games 12-18. You can bet the Argos are in the same boat. Chad Kelly took a beating & had a noticeable limp after their last game.
  24. I like their receivers a lot. Especially that young Canadian just coming into his own. We should make a complete trade. Dinwiddie might listen.
