"If the players keep making the same mistakes over and over again, you're not coaching them well enough" Hey Tim Burke, are you listening?

He's doing a Q&A right now.

I think it was closer to when he said "Grey Cup". I missed the end of what he said, but I thought he had said something else. Thanks.

O'Shea just got a round of applause when he said "this is not a rebuild"

O'Shea is putting on a good face, but you know he's hearing these questions that guys are asking and he's like ...

Some of these reporters here are seriously dumb. "What say will you have in the starting QB?" Derp.

And now O'Shea says he likes the fact that Miller is involved. Hmm.

You can pretty much guarantee Creehan will not be on the staff based on what O'Shea said he's looking for in his assistants.

da fuq is with this stream. Not working?

And it's also a lot more than drawing plays on a whiteboard and barking formations into a headset, which is apparently the only things guys like Cortez and Burke are good at.

You loved the George Cortez hire, so I'm okay with your opinion. Compare their coaching resumes before making the jump to HC and you would see why. Far as I can see O'shea was hired because ... 1. He was a good player on good teams. 2 . He coached something. You're right. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that he is regarded as one of the best on-field leaders in the history of the CFL. That aint coaching and you know it. I don't really think you know what a head coach does.

If Cortez has an opportunity to be a HC in the CFL or elsewhere or even leave to go be an OC somewhere else in the league, the Riders can't hold him. All assistants have an out clause after the season to go to other teams in the CFL or elsewhere. How productive would it be for the Riders to not allow Cortez to pursue other opportunities & they have a disgruntled coach on their hands? Saskatchewan doesn't have a choice no matter what. It's not a case of them "not allowing" him or him exercising an out clause. He's not under contract to them. He's free to do what he wants.

Good for Collaros. He can explore NFL options all he wants, we may have to go after him in FA but the reality is he's very likely going to be in the CFL next year.

Congrats to Henoc, only Bomber to make the squad. Let's hope he wants to get mentored by a fellow Canadian all-star MLB.

thank you. It's a family tribute piece, so I guess I'll take that as a compliment even though I probably shouldn't.

Wait, that's our Mike that asked that? ....I feel so....let down. Which one are you, the one with the backwards cap or the stupid glasses? stupid glasses. Sigh...I feel sad now. there I changed it. I look slightly (SLIGHTLY) less douchebaggy now.

When he interviewed in Saskatchewan, he was interested in Orlondo Steinauer, Marcus Brady and Jason Maas. Right now? Today? No idea. I'm going to pick a dark horse for our staff though ... I won't be surprised if Jordan Younger retires and we hire him as a DB coach.

The part I like best is that O'Shea is held in such high regard that we passed on the experienced candidate (Cortez) and the media is STILL saying it's a great move.

Now that you've changed your avatar, does this mean the circus has officially left Winniepg? I think the past two days have been very important for Winnipeg's football future. I'm very happy.

Either way, Collaros is going to be a Bomber. But if Collaros goes Scott over Danny V then it happens quicker.

Been pretty much confirmed that O'Shea is being announced today. Heard multiple reports saying that is the ONLY thing they're announcing.

He's already here
