tenure shouldnt trump talent....nor should passport if you have no ratio issues....weak

not shocked in the least...predictable and sad....hopefully as the game progresses our mighty HC will see that starting 10 Canadians...1 of whom shouldnt be even dressed and the other 2 should only sub in will make us a weaker club over all. Thomas and gauthier as "starters" is basically a joke and pretty sad that's the best we could come up with knowing since start of camp that we needed a MLB and a DT ....Well 2 Dt's Hope to god this just a paper thing and we see mostly all import dline and front 7 work....but I think we gonna have to witness game after game of avaerage to inadequate play from some parts before Osh smartens up...and again...No Nationlized American used...like really?.... at least we have Adams..Fox and Woods on the roster....there is one plus...and like the defensive backfield and whom we rostered.....but after all that went on in camp...what we saw...and what potential we have...this is a semi fail...as expected

100 percent.....if the timing was switched, and Osh had Lapo's tenure...Lapo had Osh....be a different story...That being said lapo would have had to put in place quality co-ordinators to make things work and let go of the micro managing...Osh had next to no success when he had to hire crap co-ordinators....wasn't until quality ones were in place that the ball started rolling...I will always say a HC is only as good as the staff around him, as they are the guys who create the system the team plays within...HC obvioulsy can have some say and over rule things, but then thats the slippery slope you get on...and trouble brews In all honesty if a HC has the right support...they will be succesful unless they are just a complete moron and dictator who wants to control everything...

Lapo didn't get the rope Osh did...and had misfortune of working under piss poor management who didn't know how to create yet alone build a sustained winner and organization Osh got that luxury and was damn lucky as his tenure in about the same amount of time was horrible...and had multiple bone headed moments Any coach with half a brain...and given the time can create a winner if given the tools and the upper management Our success and sustained ability to maintain comes from above...facts...it's up to the HC whoever he is here to foster it

I agree...they should give him a segment every telecast...I'd even go as far as a weekly or monthly show with content like that

they should do more segments like that

ok u guys got me! haha I will admit that I have seen Mariah Carey more than a few times as I knew one of her drummers when I was living in San Fran area...so got free tickets all the time hahaha.....don't judge me

I dont think any commentator has actually educated a viewing fan in ages on TSN...Dunnigan actually when doing color will say things that will make the average fan go hmmm...interesting....even little snippets would be fine saying and showing how when a team sends a certain guy into motion....that the QB as well as the secondary recievig targets will recognize who moves with that guy tipping off coverage , and then where to attack, or modify their route/read.., or when guys in waggle/motion forward jam the breaks on...and reset....looking like they are out of sync...even a few commentators have said..."oh....Bombers...or whomever almost went off side there"....when in fact its designed to again get defense to undisguise what they are doing... so many little things that are not even talked about, lf explained would really give a viewer, and fan a better understanding of whats going on

yup...we used to employ a Canadian who essentially had no impact in any play...often was rarely even covered, and was never integral to anything we did as an offence....my how times have changed for the better If Edm had a compatent short yardage guy lsat yr they likley would have had 2..3 more wins alone due to some of the circus stuff we saw where they just looked like they were wanting to give a game away. The 2 games vs the Riders I believe would have been wins if i am remembering the bafoonery correctly

I know random things hahaha....def not a fan

Celine is all messed up with some disease last I heard

not greatest in backfield either with blocks nope yup...nailed it Loss of Pushoff Rhymes and Hatcher...who was by far their best reciever, is a lot to overcome for the VAJ...Hollins flourished moreso from those guys being in the lineup....he doesnt have that now I look at our unit...U try and take away Lawler...One of Schoen or Demski gonna scalp you....or remove Scoen...Lawler will have a hey day....Plus both those guys as well have proven track record for us of being critical 2nd down conversion guys....and we havnt even touched on dependeable Woli also in the mix, and fact BO and Strev will be runing it down yer yapholes....wearing you down....no team in the West has 3 top end guys like that who also double as conversion guys...and a horse and a bull in the backfield on top of it

Harris...tho BLM hurts himself trying to help him up....Masoli with all the luck he's had trips over the both of them...breaking something....and Cries of "we are snake bit again" squeel outta Saskatchewan as Patterson is a poor mans version of Shiltz.....but with minimal passing skills, and Dole Bannana out in B.C shows he's more than a capable back-up and spot starter, and Fine lands somewhere else as a 3rd string, on a playoff bound team.....The Mace era starting out splendidly in the process with les wins than Dickyboi produced in last 2 seasons....hjow's that??

big time....like his body type here as well....

I'd take Titus Walll before any of them actually...see what he has to offer in our system...still so young too

he the clear cut defacto starter there?...

I would have took him over Edwards Cooper there....and they had since cut him anyway and ate his bonus...makes them better than what they had at HB...I think....not sure who that even is...but not a peice to put them over the top

that too lol....for whom I not sure but still important

I can answer that ala MOS...."we wanted to have a good look and liked how they practiced...hard....Number 79 always brought ou the water bottles too...his teamates liked that" which is funny as when he was a player was one the bigger jackalopes playing....almost prickish...still was smug tho lol

hahaha......too bad tho they werent able to play...being all healed...But I hear you....He is a lying sac-o lol

oh I know...I wanna see his BS answer....or if he gets all crotchety....I assume both hahaha

should be changed to "the Blue Bomber Weekly" and have players..management...coaches all participate...we can get wjhat OSH says in his daily pressers....

in a recent interview this year when asked about the dl guys brought in partway thru camp that OSH said... "you can never have enough ends on your roster" the question should then be asked "well based on that, why did you have 2 guys sit on PR nad not dress last yr, when we only had 2 legit ones playing" see how he spins that?....follow it up with the "Al Couture would not allow a player to play at less than 100%" can you comment as to why you dressed 4 guys who were unable to perform when you had healthy options?....See how he spins that

he should say..".you kept player x over player y...what was the deciding factor" , "besides he practices hard because they all should or not be here...correct?"....and if he gives the typical smug non anwer....tell him to bite it...that would be moocho entertaiing and worthy of listening to

that show is a joke now....media scrums as well with him have basically become a joke....this veil of secrecy...non answers...smug comments....no need.....like asked who returner is....said yup...we know....but we not saying....no point in that, and not hard for a team to find out if it made a lick of difference.....Obviously they are unsure now that Smith got hurt...as nobody left in camp showed anything....and in practice it's not where u find one either
