    The Alouettes’ 48-13 destruction of the Bombers proved if there was any lingering doubt about the former’s vulnerability, it was premature at best. Meanwhile, it was a stark reminder of just how bad the Bombers, now 7-10 in a wildly uneven season, can be on any given Sunday.
    And that doesn’t just include the offence — or the players, either.
    Because no sooner had the stinkage settled than Winnipeg rookie head coach Mike Kelly decided it would be the perfect time to remind all those fans he’s alienated during his rocky tenure why they’re not buying tickets anymore — and proceed to tear into Hall of Fame broadcaster Bob Irving on CJOB’s post-game show.
    Kelly was apparently angered by the attempts of Irving and colour man Mitch Zalnasky to explain why the Bombers could be so flat and ineffective. Perhaps they were looking ahead to the Nov. 8 regular-season finale death-match with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
    “I’m tellin’ ya, we were focused in on this game and that’s the only thing we were focused in on,” Kelly snapped. “It’s just media bullshit talking about anything else.”
    When Irving mildly protested, “it just didn’t look like you were focused, I’m not saying you weren’t focused,” a peeved Kelly spat: “Don’t tell me we were or were not focused. This team came out and played. Period.”
    Then Kelly hung up. Irving was speechless.
    Talk about getting your panties in a ball.
    Irving called Kelly’s tirade “juvenile” and “rude” and perhaps the worst interview he’s had in almost four decades on the air.

    I got tired of buying new jerseys too.   My current jersey is a #6 with no name on the back.   
     
    Why #6?
     
    An all time great Bomber and it happens to be my seat number, so it also helps me remember where I need to go

    Suggesting a woman shouldn't take certain jobs because "boys will be boys" is in fact a s****y take.  These incidents are not limited to "testosterone filled locker rooms", they happen in all work places, unfortunately. Would you advise your daughter to not take an office job or work at McDonalds because it can happen there too?
     
    Yup, I have multiple family members who are or have been guards at federal penitentiaries - it's not a safe, healthy environment regardless of who/what you are.

    First of all you can expect more from men- no one here said they expect less. And sometimes those choices are the wrong ones.

    I get your point. Because I struggle with it while raising my kids too. I come from a **** around and find out environment that included lots of violence. So I'm aware of the world we live in vs the world we want. 
    "I'd like to vote, but that's not the world we live in"
    "I'd like to be free but that's not the world we live in."
    Etc etc. basically what I'm trying to say is, eventually we need to make the world the way we want it to be. If everyone is stuck waiting for something to change. Nothing ever will.
    The world has plenty of con men. It'll be fine without him.

    Maybe instead of cautioning your daughter to limit herself because of what men might do, you could champion her right to take a job and tell men that they should keep their hands/comments to themselves.  Your comment smacks of "look at the way she was dressed, she was asking for it".  Don't teach girls to be careful, teach boys that that stuff is not ok.
    That's nothing more than a pathetic excuse.
    Pro tip:  when you're in a hole, stop digging.

    Kudos to you and the others taking this sensible position, as opposed to the "don't put yourself in a vulnerable position" nonsense.

    And, so instead of expecting more out of men, we make young women bend? F*** that. It is a horrible take because it says that men can't control themselves when the reality is that they make their own choices. 
    Even worse. Tell your daughter she can't live her life because we make excuses for pathetic men.

    yeah it's quite frankly offensive to everyone. Women just have to put up with being harassed and sorry men, you're just animals with no self control. 
     
    No the reason some men act like this is because they've never faced consequences for it. It's not OK to be a shitty person and the sooner crap like "well boys will be boys" goes away the better off the entirety of society will be.

    So we just accept that's how the world is that's that?? **** that ****. Long overdue for change and this is how it starts. You punish the assholes who maintain the status quo and teach them what's acceptable, regardless of testosterone or estrogen.
