sweep the leg

Good point. Wylie, Hall, & MB had all never seen a CFL game before being hired by the Bombers.

As I said earlier, Burris didn't have multiple shoulder injuries.

Dig out the qbs threads from last offseason if you want to call people out for hindsight.

Burris didn't have multiple shoulder injuries. Also, we did try to get Burris. Of course he didn't. He is the most durable quarterback perhaps ever to play in the CFL. Hey we could have used a guy like that. And yes we tried to get Burris. Until he got offered more money, then we gave up. Great. Now Ottawa won as many games this year as we have the last 2 combined but I'm sure glad the Bombers saved that money on Burris. Really helps me sleep at night. I agree about Burris. He was my first pick at the time too. Not sure his situation is comparable to Ray though, which was the point being made in response to your "learning from our mistakes" comment.

Any franchise without an offensive minded President is doomed to failure.

Reasons his offense was terrible: 1. Joey Elliot 2. Alex Brink 3. Steven Jyles (was actually moderately effective for only time in his career under Lapo) 4. Broken down Buck Pierce This team has already fired Lapo twice because the offense wasn't good enough, I'd rather not give him a third try. It's most likely a moo point anyways. I can't see him coming here even if we wanted him.

it's dishonest to suggest that Khari is just a mini Bellefool. It's also dishonest to suggest he's done anything as a coach that warrants giving him this job. I'll be pretty disappointed if he's the best we can do.

Yes, the reason is that he's turned down oc jobs waiting for a hc gig. Or at least that what rumours have suggested.

Why do you say that? What title would we have to give him to get him out of Toronto?

Dallas & Nashville are the only two "non-traditional" markets Bettman moved into that have seen success. Arizona, Atlanta, & on a lesser scale Carolina, have been train wrecks. Columbus has been ok, but are still in the bottom third in attendance. Colorado & Minnesota have been successful, although even Colorado's attendance has been down lately.

He's wrong to think this isn't a story, but I get why he'd try to play it down. IMO it's more of a funny/embarassing story than anything of real importance though.

With Collaros, Hamilton is the best in the East by far. I'd put Ottawa 2nd though.

Hamilton's backup qbs weren't very good. Ottawa's qb depth is terrible, but they were lucky enough not to need it.

I'd take Ryan Smith from that list. That's about it though.

Theo Fleury isn't gay. He was sexually assaulted by a pedophile. How can't you know there's a difference?

His team is going to miss the playoffs this year.

The under 23 team at the World Cup will be made of Canadian & US players. So Connor McDavid, for example, can't play for team Canada. In the Olympics, there are a few countries with loose Nationality restrictions that let Canadians playing in their national leagues play for the national team. This way Gordie Johnson from Moose Jaw can be German for a few weeks every four years.

Why not? Lets tighten the foil hats and suppose Miller would only hire a gm who agrees to keep O'Shea.

Except there will be also be Canadians on another team. *I realize there are always Canadians on other teams (Germany), but these Canadians will be good.

Good point. The setup of this tournament is nonsense.

They can cite climate change all they like but that's just out and out lying. They're trying to protect their own interests nothing more. I hate when climate change is used as a political tool. Call it what it is, don't want competition for the American oil production. I'm not sure if that's it. I think they're just buckling under to environmentalists.

Im not a journalist. I did read the article. Link was included in the tweet. Do you need me to wipe your ass for you too? The quip at the bottom of your post suggested you hadn't.

Assuming Crosby turns it around and has a Crosby-like season, I'd pick him again. If he has the terrible season he's on pace for, I'd give it to Toews. Less pressure and a chip on his shoulder might be good for him.
