People talk about hiring an experienced coach... but what i'd like to honestly know is... which ones are out there? Higgins? No Thanks... Benevides? Is he really any better than MOS? That's about it, Guys under 65 at least... I don't see any legit experienced coaches being available... It's funny really cuz Milo ain't coming, C Jones ain't coming, Austin ain't coming, Huff ain't coming... Who are these experienced coaches people think exist? Honestly, If i'm a team who fires a coach in the off-season... I'm not talking to experienced coaches, I'm talking to Steinhauer and Noel Thorpe first.

Richards is somewhat of a project... Harty hasn't done much for Ottawa and Durant might have 2 or 3 catches all season, The only guy who looks pretty good is Demski and even then it depends on which Game you are watching, 1 game he shows up, makes one or 2 catches, next he's invisible.

Ottawa Toronto time... This is where you see if Ottawa is legit or if they are just pretenders still... Think they aren't as good as the record says they are.

Was a good game but looked like Calgary was taking it easy in the first half, even in to the 2nd half.. Part of me believes the Stamps were just playing around with the Riders, not taking them overly serious. Good game but... Lots of iffy penalties again, the one penalty on the Calgary DL for roughing the passer was a joke and a few plays later, Sask scored. Got the feeling the refs were trying to help out SASK at times.... But, it is what it is really. Stamps are a way better team tho and it showed last night, Sask would make it close and then Calgary would come back and score right away. As for Smith, I don't see it really, I see a guy who is still looking to run first, i see a guy who can't read a D , i see a guy who makes wrong decisions, I see a guy with a weak arm, someone said it looks like any one of his passes could be picked off and thats pretty much what i see when he throws too. Sask is odd tho, Messam getting 8 yards a carry damn near yet they want Smith to throw all the time, Makes no sense really.

Think it was Casey Creehan that talked to him.

Why do I feel Simmons is gonna suck tho. Lots of hype for the guy.

I'd take wild in a second and maybe use more 3 4 d. Randle Simmons Bass Wild

Wild could be the safety tho.

Give Hamilton the cup now.

Yeah Brandon banks !!!

It's nice to see the Esks being pummeled

21 3 ticats. Just dominating

Uh we are 3-5 when did it leave?IT never has or NEVER WILL... BOD members come and go, Presidents come and go, GM's come and go, coaches come and go, players come and go but the CIRCUS will never EVER fully leave because people like yourself WON'T LET IT.Case in point, in a topic that has nothing to do with the bombers or anything of that sort... Fire MOS, bring in Higgins... ALL THIS CRAP really... it's a joke. A huge joke. Fans like you are part of the problem really. Yeah that true I hired these clowns you got me there. You don't really get it do you? The people running the team ain't the clowns...

Im under the impression that Ticket sales will pick up after labour day... Get back to this in a month and see how it's doing really.

Man, some of you guys and your agendas... What a surprise tho, a topic about Tom Higgins being fired has people wanting him to replace MOS.. Ridiculous.. The circus has moved on to Montreal, why do some of you try so hard to bring it back here?

Well, not saying people are right or wrong but so far... it's 3 vs 1 here. I mean, really... DR CFL, if you are even a Doctor, When most people seem to recall one thing and only one guy recalls something else... I dunno, just saying but... that one guy is probably wrong. Don't care about right or wrongs tho but facts are important, you seem to like to ignore facts from time to time, but really... whatever. Like you said, Think what you like.

Nah, the leafs aren't winning any time soon and that got rid of that brutal contract, yeah they retain money but still... gives them way more flexibility moving forward. Not a leafs fan at all, hate them actually.. but trading Kessel was a smart move for them. Also, I don't think Phil will ever be what you call "buff", don't think he has that body type, but his cardio might improve lots.

I think... 2 names just say it all and how those situations were handled... Michael Sam John Bowman Think the answer to why Higgins was fired lies somewhere in between there. Plus, Dunno about anyone else but have definitely heard news on twitter from Herb Z for a long time about problems in that Als locker room... It's the coaches job to deal with those problems, to run that room, quite apparent Higgins lost it.

Source? Dude has an agenda. The source is in his head.

Nope move MOS back to special teams coach with Higgins experience we are a better team.Take the blinders off. Pretty sure you got some blinders on yourself... what part of losing his locker room don't you understand? The reason Higgins was fired is probably because that locker room was in shambles since day 1 of this season and it's how Higgins handled the situation that made it worse... Now maybe his hands were tied with a couple things, the Michael Same thing, maybe that came from above, who knows but regardless it's the coaches job to defuse that situation, instead it ignited and basically blew up in his face. Dude lost the locker room, One thing i can pretty much guarantee is MOS is nowhere near close to losing his. This idea that hiring Tom Higgins would make us better is ridiculous. The guys average at best... Plus, has MOS actually lost to Higgins yet as a coach? Pretty sure we are undefeated against Montreal in head to head battles with MOS and Higgins as coaches.

You got a source on that one? Cuz I did hear he interviewed here but instead of him taking a pass, it was the bombers passing on him.

Bob Whetenhall isn't the reason for "success" in Montreal, Jim Popp is.. to a lesser extent, Anthony Calvillo and a weak ass east division for years was another reason. I don't like when Owners get involved, all i know if i OWNED a team, i wouldn't get involved in football related decisions, that's for sure.. that's not really my job.. I hire a GM to do that for me.. I mean really, What's the point in having a GM if your owner is the defacto GM anyway.

Not exactly. You do realize Popp wasn't the guy that hired Higgins in the first place tho right? Not exactly what you last little sentence implies at all. Regardless tho, Locker Room issues are the end of a coach, regardless of how they happened or if it had to do with Sam or Bowman or whoever, the second you have locker room issues and Montreal has this entire season, as a coach, It's only a matter of time. You are supposed to run that locker room, sounds like the players were. What that means is the inmates are running the asylum. Only a matter of time really... Whetenhall makes the decisions not Popp, you misunderstood. Ahhh so instead of letting your GM do his job, you do it for him? Yeah for sure, Owners who get involved are awesome for sure.

Guys a bum, some of those qb antics last night were just ridiculous, Bowman was just the icing on the cake Popp needed to deep six him. Yup. No thanks, the guy lost his locker room, he's supposed to be the guy in charge but it was pretty apparent that the players were running the asylum. No thanks to coaches like that. Higgins can go back to the CFL office really, just keep him away from Winnipeg.
