I remember Hervey when he was with the Eskimos and spoke with him at a football camp my son was attending. He said he doesn't look at any players smaller than 6 foot or something unless their off the charts. Expect the Tigercats to get bigger.

LB weathering storms all thru the game. Wow. If we can get LB going in a consistent way to support CH, look out. Help me understand why Burns isn't called for slashing on KC's breakaway?

Knowing we have player cap issues, Jets have any interest for Tyson Barrie?

Had the making for a good news story that we will never know if it would have turned out that way.

Neither.

Annually, Nurse is paid about 6 million dollars too much in terms of his contributions.

No. It's a team game. CF didn't beat us. Mtl's team did. CF contributed for sure but wasn't the primary reason. Yes CF is a professional football QB but he grades out as average at best supported by stats. That's not whining.

Like on a lot of different topics I’m noticing, another example where you and I have a much different perspective, and in this particular case, of what it looks like when someone destroys another. Not even a complete dominant game, a few key plays that would suggest the word destroy is incorrectly used. CF is a perfect example that when he is playing at his best level he’s just managing the game not dominating.

Too general in how you use the word whole. For some BB posters here (not all) it’s not low tolerance for other team fans, it’s low tolerance for absurd trolling and/or sometimes lacking skill in how they present their ‘thoughts’. That low tolerance is applied to anyone here BB fan or not. We all are located along this spectrum somewhere.

Means nothing to you cuz you’re on the wrong end of it. Anyways, thanks for stopping by.

12-4

So basically O'Day wants a yes man for the HC position. Cool. That will turn out well. I smell another 3 year extension coming.

To me he's a poser. Get someone in there that will get their hands dirty and do the work.

Or another way of putting it: You must be new here, let me show you around.

Welcome to being a lifelong Winnipeg Jet Fan.

The bigger issue here is it exemplifies once again the current climate we find ourselves in. Back in the day this kind of behaviour was quickly, immediately and swiftly condoned and put back under the rock where it belonged. Nowadays, posturing and blithering absurdness is a strategy to get likes and grift money off/build a coalition of people who share similar approaches of what presenting other viewpoints looks like.

We've been shutout 5 of the last 6 periods of hockey. Time to turn the tap on full and chase Skinner from the crease please and thank you.

Like I said CD was the least of their worries. And I'm not even defending CD. He did and said many head scratching things but this goes beyond a head coach matter.

Not possible cuz O'Day must have pictures on someone to have received an extension for failing miserably, but the Riders needed to kick O'Day to the curb, demolish the whole system and build new. Craig Dickenson was the least of their worries. Yuk.

When I read your posts, I'm getting a more fulsome understanding of where your threshold is when it comes to actions/words come with consequences.

Would prefer he stay in the Broadcast booth, I really like him there but if he is considered just based on my observations on Lapo over the years please: Call plays to win not call plays to not lose. Be more open to adjusting when needed based on other people's feedback. In fact, just be more open to feedback. You don't have all the answers. Have a team of trusted advisors that can help you with your blind spots. We all have them, recognize that.

Following my normal pattern on the football threads, I’ll keep true to my well researched analysis of any non Jet non Blue Bomber teams and remind everyone, regardless of the w/l records and where they maybe trending, Oilers suck and will always suck. Fact.

Must win simply because a hardcore Jet fan living in Oiler land said so and doesn't want to come into the office the next day and face a barrage of shots if we are unsuccessful.

Je ne sais pas as the French would say.

For what it's worth and it's worth could be in question considering the track record of this organization. Excerpt taken from a story from Matt Carlson Hockey News: 'Davidson confirmed law enforcement was not involved and Perry's actions were not criminal. Yet the NHL's youngest GM choked up and seemed to be fighting back tears. Davidson did say, however, that whatever Perry did "certainly didn't mesh with the background we received. "To be honest, I think over the last 24 hours, what’s gone on has been very disturbing and I feel like I’m wearing it," he added. "I’m carrying that. It’s just tough to see." Refutes Rumors But in a rebuke to unfounded rumors on social media, Davidson was clear. "This does not involve any players or their families," he said. "And anything that suggests otherwise, or anyone that suggests otherwise, is wildly inaccurate and frankly it’s disgusting."
