There was no way this was going to go off without any hiccups no matter how much planning you put in.

There. I feel better about how visible we've made this now.
still not going to be good enough for some, you realize..

From the radio show they made it seem like Goltz was great in his brief play, Hall played well. Lucas and Markett stood out on defense where everyone else was absolute 100% garbage.
Renaud had a good game as well.
Burke really hated the play of the 2nd unit of lb'ers... anyone know who that was? Sounds like they are gonzo.
Ian Wild i believe at SAM and i thought Brown at WIL?
or was it that new kid.. faulcon?

Here are my thoughts ...
-- I missed the first five minutes because of traffic
-- My hamburger had no toppings because they ran out
-- Desia got a quickname nickname from me. Is. As in Desia Is Dunn. Cut him tomorrow, he was horrendous.
-- The best thing McGee did all day was get hurt.
-- Etienne had a couple nice grabs, as did Carter.
-- Hall was by far the best QB and all this talk about how they took Buck out to protect him makes me sick, it`s pretty obvious teams are just going to gun for him until he gets knocked out.
-- Apparently missing five minutes means you don`t see ANY starters, I think the only first unit guy I noticed on the field was Jovon. Maybe Stewart once or twice.
-- Massey and Kennedy both impressed me as returners, McCree can follow Dunn as far as I`m concerned.
-- Wendell Brown was all over the place but still ... how can I honestly try and say ANY linebacker impressed me.
-- David James looked on. And then off. And then on. And then off. Too inconsistent.
-- Marty Markett probably will not make the team but he needs to stick around on the PR. He will be a very good replacement at CB WHEN the time comes, I just dont think that time is now.
-- Marcus Hyde is FAST. JT Gilmore is HUGE. Like both of these guys on the line.
That`s about all I remember for now. Oh yeah. Doug Brown sucks as a radio personality. Maybe he should go commentate a funeral, seems better suited for his personality.
thanks for this. I agree with most of it from what i heard on radio.. though didn't now our starters were out for the majority of the game.. alot of people are "woe is me, our starters got whoomped on" but if they weren't in then it was bench vs bench..
What did you think of Parker or was he in the starter category and thusly not played much? Kinda thought Dunn wasn't anything special. wonder if he is gone before next game..
-
Oh yeah and as good as my actual SEATS are, holy **** is the environment around me AWFUL. I think my section is being sponsored by the River Ridge Nursing Home. The most excitement I saw from other fans was a dude shaking his cane at the field. For real.
West side sucks. Why am I here.
that ain't good. being surrounded by geriatrics never ends well at a football game..

Yeah, I'm kinda glad I had the hockey game on the TV (no volume...) so at least there was something worth following....

If they ever legalize weed, I'm buying stock in Frito Lay.

That and zigzags.

Hoping the Hamilton game shows more, but yeeeeeesh that wasn't pretty. Don't blame Doug...that's gotta be tough to sit through, and I'd suggest it's even harder given how close to the game he still is.
yea that was a debacle. I'm not sure even I can spin this positive... Carter with first pro catches (sorta) Hall looked good, returns were solid.. otherwise.. a whole lot of blech.
-
Carter with at least one catch, and this little house in Olds popped huge for it
Haven't heard boo from Etienne, but the offense has been all kinds of bad......Jade with one catch I believe and Carter with two.
-
id be there if i could have. I had tickets in the 227 area code.. had to end up giving them to the wife and my sister.. (sob!)
-
not s great start fer buck. hit twice, sacked once. poor throws..
-
it's funny how draconian some people here can get in regards to weed.. the law is terribly outdated, often considered in the same breath as prohibition.. it's nowhere near as dangerous as cocaine, heroin, meth, ecstasy, acid or even mushrooms.. driving high, while dangerous, is no dangerous then driving tired or under the influence of cough medicine.. definitely a bad idea but nowhere near as stupid as driving drunk.
seeing as it's a fine and maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe community service, I highly doubt this would be he cause of his termination or trade... the lack of being transparent to the team on the other hand.. I Hope that he has his reasons and does what he needs to do to make it right..

Lapo chose Crowton, not Mack. Mack apparently told him to hire an OC but not who to hire. According to Lapo, he ran into Crowton at a coaches conference and they started talking about the CFL and then Mack was brought in after Lapo and Crowton started talking about the opening for OC in Winnipeg.
huh. well then, colour me corrected.
-
You can't just cut an NHL'er and be done with him like you can in the CFL.
well to be honest, ya you could.. but it would be dumb.. just like in this instance, it would be dumb. if your conduct is deemed damaging to the teams image, you can be released by either sports teams I'm pretty sure. the players association may go to bat for the players but its still a stipulation im pretty sure.

GMs usually let their coaches pick their assistants because they have to work with them. It also explains why former fired head coaches end up as assistants coaching teams that fired them before.
yea thats a good point too.. I imagine that the coaches do have almost final say in the matter when it comes to assistants.. though i thought it was macks call on OC lapo's last season here.. but that would be the exception not the norm.
-
That's funny. I posted there this morning to address something and I referred to our site as "that other forum" without the censor. I wonder if Colin thinks I tried to type in the name.
I've been told by a few people that there are rumblings over there that we planted that Access_Blue guy to stir **** up. I can't see why we'd want (or need) to do that.
thats hilarious.. That guy is such a clown shoe. I can't believe his posting styles, he seems to think hes suddenly the football guru over there and yet his info went from decent to shockingly bad.. I hope he gets canned there quick and never finds his way here..
-
We will see, I guess.
yea very true.. I mean, the bombers in the past have made some brash move my supporting people with less then stellar reps (abu-mechrek and Sellers come to mind) while allowing others to try and crack the roster (ontarrio smith) so I think unless burke is going to make a statement, this shouldn't be an issue..
would I be shocked if it went the other way? No, Burkes trying to put his stamp on the team and set an example of zero tolerance..
-
That was Lapo luring Tim Burke & Burke luring Dickenson.
Yea but Mack has to agree to both, no? Lapo could have told him he wanted Mike Kelly back and wouldn't have.. also, Macks the one who pitches the offer and lands em..So technically Mack's the fisherman to lapo/burkes lures..
-
Wasn't Cox replaced at halfback by Dix?
Just saying.
and I believe there were more then a few pun related jokes at that point as well..
-
I think the main issue here is not so much that he got caught, especially given the amount and how much of the general population smokes, but moreso that he didn't tell the team on his own what happened.
and I agree.. Hef will need to explain himself and apologize to his team mates and the team i'm sure.. even if he uses the "its not my bag baby!" defense..
I think he will and he will be in blue n gold this season..
-
He may have issues getting back into Canada... if convicted.
your missing the point though iso. its not a felony.

makes me think its a fine and a "dont do it again!" scenario..
-
Is it a bit misleading to say he was busted when he was just given a ticket? Since he had such a small amount he'll likely have to pay a small fine and that will be it. It's a misdemeanor so it won't effect his entry into Canada.
exactly.. its peanuts.. small potatoes. if he has to, his lawyer can get him across but really shouldn't even come to that..
-
I seem to remember a goalie in this town who did not report a DUI for two months. This will blow over (no pun intended)
haha yea thats the first thing that popped up in my mind as well.. If noel of all coaches can get past it.. I cant imagine burke not doing the same unless he uses this as his big pointy stick..
-
Fly high, Bombers.
pft. I bet you cant count on both hands how many ticats blaze as well..
-
yeah Burke sounds pretty disappointed. The biggest thing to me is that Hefney didn't disclose this arrest to the team. Did he honestly think that the Bombers wouldn't find out?
that, is a bad thing yes.. Id be rid of Hefney for that before the actual weed incident.. gotta be upfront and honest.

faaaar too early to predict that but if poblah doesn't pick up his pace, he could end up backing up for sure.
