I may be out to lunch here but it seems to me, apart from some ridiculous decisions the last couple of games, our co-ordinators have come out with a decent enough game plan to get us a good lead by the half. Then the opposing co-ordinators, after having a 1/2 to size things up, make adjustments and come out in the second 1/2 and start chopping away at us...but our co-ordinators aren't able to keep up and make counter changes on the fly. Granted it must be harder to make changes on the fly rather than having a half to notice tendencies...but it's something you have to be able to do if you want to be a pro co-ordinator. So...do they just need more time to grow into their rolls? Are they just not adjusting fast enough/at all? Are the players not able to implement the adjustments they make? Any of this making any sense?

That's what I figured...but upon hearing it I couldn't help thinking, if true, they are certainly getting their money's worth

They don't get paid? I fn hope the other job isn't air traffic controller or crossing guard

I'm normally a **** your feelings kinda guy but you should trust yours

I'd add Demski to that list. Gives his all. Still producing even when the entire team isn't. He's earned it.

There wasn't enough endzone to throw it as far as he would have had to to overcome that mismatch and coverage, imo. It was just a bad call all around.

I disagree. CS is drive and intensity personified. He knows the coach's preference for ZC and is aware the only way he gets to continue playing is to perform. I think it plays a part in some of the (poor) decisions he's made. You can wonder about his skills/mechanics and even his judgement but he is not a guy that needs to be "pushed".

I know, as a viewer, all I really tune in for is to see people in the stands having fun. I don't really care if the team wins. Actually I wish they'd spend less time focusing on the game and turn the cameras on the stands. 🙄

On the bright side...for anyone with TCM...they're playing Python's Holy Grail and The Life of Brian back to back Sunday night.

If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with bs

Ha! They don't seem to get that even when they're winning

I heard a rumour about one that hurt his dog by cutting its nails too short...so he went with a new one.

Just rewatching the game and yeah the last replay they showed was the one from ground level...and while it was the best view, imo, it simply doesn't meet the definition of "conclusive". You don't actually see the ball touch the ground/any pebble fly. Obviously my opinion is worth squat.

I literally said out loud to myself..."does that guy come up whining to the refs after every sack?" We're talking about the Bomber's game, right?

You may be right but It would have been nice to get half as many angles on it as they gave the Bonds non-interception instead of one from outside the stadium.

Granted it may have been the right call but there was nothing on replay that supported it. Every angle was either motion blurred, too far away or blocked.

Exactly. There was no clear/incontrovertible evidence on replay that ball touched the ground. None.

Surprised it wasn't called...even more surprised it wasn't challenged

His takes aren't gonna chase any league fans away from the games so they're unlikely to do any harm, expect, perhaps to him. Even bad opinions can lead to positive results.

The game wasn't terrible but the KO return ending really was cuz they missed a clear block in the back that should have nullified it. You hate to see a team fight to come back only to get corn-holed by the refs...I mean unless that team is sask.

1st & 10...Sask gets called for a 15yd misconducted penalty. They move it back 15yds...1st & 10? Also...Suitor on the Lawler catch they challenged..."He catched and secured it"...lol

Perhaps a reminder that at times coaching and management have a bit more insight into a player's abilities than we do...as much as we might hate to admit it...lol Astonishing to think Buck just used him as a battering ram. I wonder if Strev would have come back if Buck was still the OC this year. Gotta be hard to be used like a mule when you know you have some thoroughbred tendencies.
