How short is Nichols leash?

oh **** off....Dinwiddie came in and won vs Calgary in 2009, Joey Elliot was outstanding when he first came in for Buck in 2011 (until he got hurt, too...) It really hasn't been that long.... My apologizes, forgot the Dinwiddie game and Elliot's one good game versus Hamilton in 2012 (followed by an OK one versus B.C. and stinkers versus the Riders (2) and Calgary).

I worry about attending the Grey Cup this year and having to decide between rooting for Jones or Austin.

Given that the last time, Winnipeg had a young QB come in and surprise was Troy Copp in 1998, I think we are due.

Would love to know what Veltung's injury is.

This is what really worries me

I don't get Gordon over Veltung or to be honest taking Collins off for Turner. The return of Peach/Turner seems to be the 2015 version of Kuale. MOS's blind loyalty is going to get him fired.

Did you know the NDP just got caught in BC paying canvassers different wages? English speaker 17 and hour, Punjabi 13 and hour. I think it will be a close election and as of now the NDP will win (which scares me). I think most people don't research issues though and really look into things. An example, it sounds nice to say tax the wealthy (cause people think thats not them) or help the middle class. However who is the wealthy and the middle class? Do you know that the median income for a two parent family is $84,000 but for a single parent its $40,000? Yet, I know lots of two parent families makes more than that who whine about helping families and yeah it's not the ones makes $40,000 or under they are worried about.

How do you sit Veltung unless he is hurt?

Screw Smith getting his game together against us. I hope he throws multiple pick 6's both games with some lost fumbles for good measure.

If J-Homo is in for Adams, Scott for Cotton, who is coming off for Moore? Better not be Veltung.

You know what bar had like the dirtiest bathrooms in the city? The Albert.

Dude, I had just repressed that memory. Was that the one where he threw a pick in the endzone instead of running the called play, where we at least had a fg chance?

Here's to a successful Friday.

Great point on Walters. Look at Toronto: Gurley, Hazelton, Elliot and Spencer have all looked good at receiver this year. Cummings has played well on the DL for them.

Hire from the TSN panel, Matty as the OC with help from Milt and Jocko.

I was at that Rocky Butler game, we had 8 sacks.

I'd bring in Troy Smith and cut Brohm. What is the point of keeping a guy that has proven he can't get it done? Wow, he was good in High school. So was Tim Couch. Don't want him either.

Well if Marve gets us a hit, Davis another hit and we keep going this could work.

You know what the benefit of firing Marcel is, you don't have to watched him run the same system that failed in Montreal, Hamilton and last year. You don't ruin another QB. Pat Tracey can go too.

What was the excuse for the same issues he had in Hamilton in 2008 and Montreal in 2007. 3 new OL this year too.

I'd take Troy Smith over Brohm. Smith has passed for a TD and doesn't get his team's butt kicked. 70-19 this year with Brohm in. It was 69-10 in his two starts in Buffalo. See the pattern.

On pace for 59 sacks now. That's down from 71. But 3 new pieces on the OL nets you 2/3 of a sack less a game? If our protections are the same as other teams, why are we so bad? Is the talent that bad? The coaching?

Being hopeful, any chance we can establish a strong run game with Marshall and Scott? Running the ball seems the one area Marcel has had success in.

Rich, great post, any way to give more than one like?
