My suspicion is there are board members who prefered to not fire Mack till the end of the season .So you leak the info to make it public and force the rest of the boards hand.Poorly handled? A little underhanded? Yup! But what is done is done and this was inevitable to all but the blind.. Lets move on and hope we finaly roll the GM dice correctly.

Very true.We really are missing those amazing talents who made you stand up and yell.There are still lots of those dominating talents in the CFL, just not on the BB.If I was on the board of directors this thread would scare the hell out of me.Some of the most dedicated BB fans now sounding rather apathetic. This team cannot afford to turn fans off and lose them at the turnstiles.

BIG no to Tillman on his record, both football, moral, and legal.As far as cutting Mac midseason it could happen if it is obvious he is gone anyways. Having a lame duck GM benifits no one.We need to have someone really on the ball for the expansion draft which I believe happens immediately after the Greycup.I don't see that being Mac if he knows he is getting cut or a new GM within days of a hire.Bad or rushed decisions at that time could devastate us.just as a rushed decision on a rehire now (Tillman) could.One of the alternatives would be to insert Walters as a interm GM.As far as Lawless I heard multple suggestions including ODay, the assistant GM from BC and Walters himself.I have thought since the beginning 2and6 or 2 and 8 and the axe falls.There are alot of peoples jobs riding on Mr Goltz's shoulders.

Thanks and good luck to all responsible for this. Incidently I found it through a stampeder site (thank you Google)
