Respectfully, they're sending a message that they have no respect for proper process and no clue how to be professional and handle things in an appropriate fashion.

I'd sell you my late eighties #63 but I'd worry that Chris Walby would get hit by lightning or be carried away by a tornado or something.

Well. It's not nudity. Just messed up

I was inspired to create this thread after reading the Rider version started by danno over at Riderfans:

Mack got us a first-round pick for an injured QB with very limited upside.  That was a nice piece of work.

You ought to just be able to trade your 70s Brock in to get an 80s Clements.

If they brought in Daley as ST coach, Paopao as offensive line coach and Maciocia as AGM you might have to rename the Bombers the "Sharknados".

The day we hire Eric Tillman is the day I become the newest Ottawa Redblacks fan.

So if you've got an incompetent boss, you should just shut your mouth and let your team keep on sucking?

man what a useless organization - why did they give Hawkins an extension when they knew they'd be firing him?  Classless. 

You don't know why?  Because we have the highest proportion of panicky-idiot knee-jerk fans in the league, that's why.

The only reason to fire a GM midseason is to stop a guy going crazy gutting a team to desperately try and turn things around. I don't see Mack doing that so there is absolutely no reason to do a mid season firing that will accomplish precisely nothing. 

Really, why are you guys ragging on the Winnipeg Sun?
 
I can think of a number of reasons the Winnipeg Sun could be a valuable asset to the Winnipeg Football Club if they would just work with them ...

who gives a **** what they say honestly? It'll all be stock answers that don't tell anyone anything. They'd both give  support to the people below them, they'd both give the message about working hard to improve... and you think not getting these bland generic meaningless statements actually means anything? **** the media for crying about not getting their useless sound bites. I'm more interested in what actions are taken, forget what anyone actually says. 

78/91, 1095 Yards, 7 TD's
 
There are no words. Sure glad we can all agree Buck Pierce is the biggest problem with this team.

As Requested

In the late stages of a close game, your coaching staff has to have some attention to detail......
 
Wanted to concede safety, but didn't get the call out to the field
Burned 2nd timeout, on something that wasn't going to be overturned
Poor time management on last series, lost probably two plays
Didn't have the short yardage team (Joseph) ready
End up with horrible deep handoff from shotgun
 
Fail.

I hope the first play of the game is a fake handoff with the Goltz keeping on a bootleg and it fools everyone

Well I just got a chance to watch that game and here's an example of why the coach isn't always the problem... 2nd down and 7, Goltz throws to Simpson short of the first down, Simpson tries to run all the way outside despite the Argos having enough bodies to string it out... he winds up 2 or 3 yards short when there were plenty of opportunities to man up, take the hit and go forward and wind up at least close enough where gambling on 3rd down is an option if not getting the first down yourself. Result is a 2 and out. There was another play where Simpson took the handoff, the play was obviously designed to be inside but the o-line got owned on the play so he bounced outside which was a smart call, but again rather than manning up and cutting up for a short gain he tried to run outside and got caught for a loss of yards. 
 
It's not all the play calls, there's a lot of plays being left on the field because the players aren't executing very well.

Roll Up The Rim To Wynne.

You know fraser, you are sure getting yourself worked up & underwear tied up in knots over a guy who is never coming here. Glenn's not leaving Calgary. Not with the way Tate is. Now go out & enjoy the summer. Maybe go play a round of golf, sit out on the deck with a cool one. Maybe go for a nice summer drive somewhere. Like chill, man.  Your worst fears ain't happening.
