  1. Garrett didn't really impress me much yesterday.  He went the wrong way a few times and didn't look like he knew what he was doing.  I also don't think he survived contact with the ground on that TD and TSN didn't seem to have the balls to show the replay from any angle that would have proved it.

  2. The absolute funniest part to me, is that the GM we fired was rumoured to be close to acquiring Collaros and now everyone is simultaneously jumping on the "we must get Collaros" bandwagon all the while still continually crapping on that GM nonstop. 

     

    The funniest part to me is that he once again failed to get the QB he was after.  Coffee is for closers, and Mack didn't close when it really mattered.  Joe Mack is the Shelley Levene of general managers....

  3. Pencer at RT and Kowalchuk at guard seems to make more sense but who knows with these "braintrust".

     

    If Pencer goes to tackle and gets hurt half way through, then who backs him up?  I don't know, just asking the question.  I do agree that I'd like to see him at tackle.  I think if Swiston hadn't gotten hurt we'd have seen at least one of them starting this week at tackle, something I've wanted to see all year.

    From today's freep...

    "You have to be consistent in the draft," said Burke. "You've got to say to yourself there's certain positions that it's easier to find Canadian players at. Offensive line is an example, so you just have to keep drafting every year at those positions and not try to draft a fullback or something like that.

    "When you draft a lot of offensive linemen, you're not only drafting for your starters, you're drafting for your backups so that when that starter goes down you have a legitimately good backup. We haven't done that."

    Wow, Burke slagging Mack again...   I wonder if anyone other than Mack actually had valid input into the draft.

     

     

    People had input .. whether or not it was listened to is another matter entirely.

     

     

    I questioned why we didn't draft any o-linemen this year.  I was told there weren't any worth drafting.

    I disagree that firing Burke won't change anything. Maybe not in the short term but getting a new head man in here for next year will do all kinds of good, especially when he brings in a new coaching staff. 

     

    Burke preaches about jobs being on the line but never actually benches anyone when they play like crap, that's a big part of what leads to a losing culture. 

     

    If they can get Dickenson out of Calgary, I'd have Burke's office packed up while he was on the sidelines of the November 2nd game and have everything waiting by his car in the parking lot.

     

    I'd give Dickenson a blank cheque and ask him to write in whatever number it took to get him here. 

     

     

    LOL.  Yeah in the CFL you can do that all right....Dickenson would write in a number, then Walters and Miller would look at it, say "We'll be right back" and you'd hear a door slam followed by squealing tire sounds al a the Simpsons.
