Ftr my original post meant to say "lids" not kids.... Now edited. I don't want anyone thinking I'm THAT kind of crazy... (Just the regular kind that you already know about...)

Cuthbert is the best hockey and CFL PBP of all time, without question.

My two favourite lids right now, both from The Bombers Store, are a royal blue snapback and a white/blue "courderoy" bucket hat. I'm 44 and never considered there was anything wrong with the snapback.... But it is also possible that I am WILDLY out of touch... Ha ha.

I don't know Derek at all (we have several mutual friends in the industry) but he is meant to be a national broadcaster for the CFL. He will be the best CFL national PBP in a very long time.... I say that as a broadcaster and a fan of broadcasting.

Definitely not, but Cuthbert is still the best ever. Borderline unwatchable is way too far. I don't love Nielson and Smith is a pro but is well past his due date. I think DT should be the next one called up to the bigs, and likely replace Smith. The analysts are varying levels, but Matty and Lapo are very good, Forde is solid and Suitor...... Ehhhhhhhhh..... It's all well more than serviceable and far from borderline unwatchable. Also, Gord Miller was a fantastic PBP and I wish he was still on the CFL beat. For my money, I like him better on football than hockey.

Yes.

All the ones mentioned... Chungh, Goossen, Couture and Desjarlais.... Were not coming back. They had non football reasons for leaving so there wasn't much you could do there

**** sakes that DL.... We need an airlift this weekend.

Someone on this board (JBR??) said recently (paraphrasing here) "this team isn't good enough anymore to come out and half ass it and still find a way to win. They're all sitting around waiting for someone else to make the play" Woogie agrees with you... And, based on this piece anyhow, I'm led to believe the locker room isn't blind to the issues...

When we had that 2nd and 1, and didn't take the chance to drop back and do something with it... Instead just smashing it into th pile yet again..... I was so disappointed. Seemed like the perfect opportunity, but maybe that's why they didn't? Too obvious?

You gotta just be loving life right now.... This is your heaven.

I just don't want to go back to being anything but the top of the mountain... I am not ready to go back to 2004.... 2013...... 😭

I don't want to join the negativity but we have, objectively, looked like BY FAR the worst team in the league so far...

You misunderstand... In this quasi analogy, Osh is Dave The Bear.... And whatever comes next after this extended period of winning is the next Daley....

So much this. After the last however many years, where we could get 2 or 3 yards every time almost automatic... These last two games have been shocking to watch. Barely getting a yard or less. It's hard to watch.

I'm just saying, after living through that, it feels like we're headed the same way, albeit with having seen a bit more extended winning period than we did back then.... And it feels like we're on our way to Jim Daley Pt 2...

I was right there with you to see what happened after 2001......

It just really ******* sucks this is happening with next year's GC at home. **** **** ****...

So to further the conversation about O'Shea.... From what we know about him (and honestly I think anyone who's had a personal interaction with him will tell you he's a good dude who loves talking to fans and loves talking about the CFL... But we really don't know anything about the professional version of MOS) do people think he'd take things lightly if he were "Sat down and told what's what..." ? Legitimately a sincere question. Because I could see that room coming to blows if the convo went down the way some of you seem to think it would. I suspect it's more a situation of Wade saying "what's wrong and how can I help turn this around? What do you need?" Rather than anything antagonistic. But that's just me guessing... Legitimately curious though.

I'm willing to give the conditions some of the blame for not finishing things after the delay. But hey both teams had to play in it last night. Sincere question that I almost done want to ask.... If not Osh then who? And don't be Booch and say "doesn't matter... Anyone!!!" because that's ridiculous nonsense. If not Osh coaching then who?

Fair all the way around...

I don't think Ottawa is a very good team so this is kinda scary....

Isn't Neufeld a natural RT that was converted to G, or am I misremembering....

I just hope everyone has fun....
