Wasn't a contradiction at all, for it to be a contradiction i would of also had to have said Calgary is that good, they aren't. We're that bad, right now every team in the league(except Montreal who jsut plain bad right now) would take our defense and spank them like children.
actually Montreal is beginning to show signs of life...

Here comes the Stampede!

You're not finding a replacement GM mid-season so I don't see what difference it makes. If Mack gets fired, it will be Walters or Buchko taking care of that stuff for the balance of the season and neither one will be our GM next season. Pointless.
precisely why Mack didn't want Forde.
regardless... if somehow JE or Muamba (or another key asset's) deals don't happen and Mack is chopped (either early or after the season) the blame game will reach heretofor unheard of volume on the forums.
-
Firing Mack mid-season would be senseless. He gets the rest of the year to turn it around. Playoffs, he keeps his job. Miss the playoffs, loses his job. That simple.
then again... someone has to get to work on extentions (JE, Muamba) and audit the roster before the offseason... do you really want it to be the guy you're going to tie the can to? if you're going to gun someone, you do it at or around labour day so whoever is put in charge (be he a "caretaker" or permanent) can make certain your key assets are in place for next season.

God bless that man. RIP.
and his family.

Mack will be gone before his contract is up (next year). But the pain of his tenure will linger after with his hiring of Burke for 3 seasons, his O-Line that is no better no than it has been (Shannon Boatman is just embarrassing... and he's an import...don't get me started on Morley) and of course his instability under centre and lack of support for same.

i don't think anyone is fast enough to run outside without proper blocking, playcalling to keep defence guessing wrong, or defenders making errors... and Simpson didn't have any of those going for him on his outside attempts against us... Harris and Sheets however did and they beat on us repeatedly.
-
There's gotta be a bylaw somewhere that states that Hamilton and Toronto are required to swap linebackers periodically.
it is a subset of the "Senator Braley gets what Senator Braley wants" bylaw.
-
there was a team meeting this week right? as in: the players took it upon themselves to hold each other accountable and try to sack up for this Friday, right?
seems like a poor time to chuck an insult at them.
-
Love this match-up. Great for both teams, great for the league as a whole. Future vs Future....
looking forward to this!

i) thanks for reading
ii) because i own the blog and have decided to moderate it
-
or you know, just go out on a limb and pick someone from another team ya homer.
that would take the fun (and bragging rights) away from anyone who outlasts me in this pool.
last season only 1 lone Bomber fan got to say that he beat the Argos tailbacks.
-
likely won't pick until Monday when i find out who the Sculler's starting TB will be.

Coach Scott estimates 4-6 weeks for Kackert, but that could be adjusted on either side.
He added that Kackert was "much worse" that Ray.
-
Yet we keep a CB who can't cover. At least issac is a beast against the run and blitzing.
i'll give you blitzing... and hit hits a ton when he's in the clear...
but i think he has a tendency to be light at the POA and part of the reason RBs had been victimizing us is a tendency to arm-tackle.
his stand-in last game (after Jones moved him outside into coverage) shed a block off of a tackle 100 pounds more than him and drilled Buck in the guts... i think that Jones saw that play and made up his mind.
i would be surprised not at all if Orlondo hasn't already contacted BI.

What does the BBB do besides nothing??
they extort money from companies to become members or else they can make them look bad. some people think that they're some sort of do-gooder gov't body that they can sick on a company that doesn't live up to their expectations (fair or not).
-
Nobody wanna question why Toronto would cut their Defensive Captain.......?
i think the reason rhymes with "Mass Shove Her Age"
i don't know though. coach Scott has been very explicit in the past when cutting someone about providing an explanation... we'll see.
so... i guess Shane Horton gets the spot...
-
yup. Beating the Bombers isn't exactly a ringing endorsement. And Toronto is really in tough if they have to now play the rest of the season without their gift from the league at QB.
think Ray was hurt that bad? i thought Kackert's looked worse. neither were taken to the locker room which i took as a promising sign. Ray seemed to be saying that he felt no pain to the trainer who was checking him out...
...even if he's OK though, i'd sit him against BC and play Collaros. that way he gets nearly 3 weeks off (with our bye next week).
-
and the bombers were 10-8 in 2011 and in the grey cup game.... Do you actually have a point or just more blind homerism?
just refuting your weak claims as usual. carry on polishing Mack's accomplishments.
-
funny because that's exactly what the Argos looked like until they got a qb.... or do you mistakenly think the team suddenly got built differently? It's the CFL, if you have a qb you always have a chance, if you don't have a qb you're screwed.
we were 9-9 without a QB in 2010... mind you IIRC, Cleo Lemon had numbers superior to anything Buck ever had. so maybe that shouldn't count...
-
Oh yeah I guess TO gets to be in the top 4 by default. Otherwise, blech.
true... beating the Bombers and TiCats does feel a bit like winning by default. until we beat a good team, the jury is out.
-
you do realize that the BBB is pretty much a scam and has no ower or ability to do a darn thing, right?
-
That's what I don't get about the whole Rob Ford thing I know he is claimed to smoked crack in all but. All I here is that he wants to building facilities around Toronto to get kids off the street but the city left wing city counsel votes him down anytime he tries to get the funding pass. It would seem a lot better use for money than on funding projects like this. Is there more to it Bluto.
yeah... maybe we ought to take it to the general forum tho.

yet another reason to chop Mack prior to the end of the season. let you new guy (or interim) GM have a shot at getting a QB on the cheap that another team would otherwise lose for zilcho.
