sweep the leg

I believe you'd get your ass kicked saying something like that, man.

KBF, have you been playing on your "Jump to Conclusions" mat?
 

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....

I'd love to see him come in and throw for 400 yards and 5 tds. As was already said, the ensuing **** storm would be fantastic to watch.

Duane Forde actually laughed today on H & L when Lawless suggested that trade.

I think you're looking too hard for reasons to complain about Burke. He's the coach, so of course he's going to have to comment on his players. He's rough around the edges, but I don't know if anything he's said is going too far.
 
Your being an Elliott fan is, IMO, why you're still worked up about that comment.

No, I don't think Sorensen is losing his job. Parenteau being able to play centre means we don't have to dress Kowalczuk anymore. Pencer can play instead.

He had a diving pass knockdown in the 3rd quarter against Dressler.

340 yards of offense & 20 points allowed. Our defense was the reason we were still in the BC game at the end. Elliott shouldn't get the "almost" win for having a below average game with more int's that td's and below 50% passing.

I agree he made the wrong choice, I just wanted to point out I don't think any of them are all that good. I've said many times I'm not a big believer in Elliott, but we should have made somebody beat him out first. I really wanted to see a qb competition between two of Porter, McPherson, Brink, Elliott, or Reilly.
 
I'm with you that he's not wrapping himself in glory as a HC, but IMO you're doing too much to absolve Mack of his responsibility for this mess. It's on him more than just a bad choice in coaches.

I agree... pretty dickheaded comment

According to Toth, the gave some thought to starting Goltz as well. That's really good news to me b/c it means Pierce wasn't even in the discussion.

Absolutely. Goltz had to face by far the best two defenses our team has played so far this season.

Not mentioned in this analysis is their appearance. Goltz is too "man pretty", so I give the edge to Buck's manlier handsomeness.

Goltz did it against better teams too.

This is what I've been seeing lately whenever Iso posts:
 

Not terribly surprising, but Goltz is upset.

Justin Goltz says he feels betrayed and team has mismanaged QB position. #Bombers

Yes, Max Hall should be next in line. Under no circumstances should Pierce ever start a game for this team again.
 
Mgmt already made themselves look foolish naming Pierce as our starter going into the season. Doubling down on the error by keeping him as our starter is much worse than handing the team over to unproven guys. I'd rather run with guys who we don't know much about than somebody we know well enough to be sure he isn't the answer.

Good decision.
 
I just wish we had a competition in camp between young qb's (some combo of Brink, Elliott, Goltz, Hall, etc.) for the starting job, with Pierce pencilled in as the #2 right from the start.

Pierce: Hey Lulay, your wife is a lesbian
 
Pierce: Hey Lulay, she's a dyke. I know, I know...
 
Pierce: She's a lesbian, a lesbian, a lesbian....

Don't tell me you don't get the Slapshot reference.

Hopefully Glotz to Jay Detain is the next great passing combo for the Bombers.
