Yeah, but it probably wont take much for that cold system to move in early either.

When we first fired Claude Noel, I remember listening to Hustler and Lawless on 1290. Gary said something along the lines of not thinking PM would be the guy to get you to a Cup. That you needed three different guys. The first guy to kind of show you what you have, the second guy to develop your core, and then a "finisher". One of those coaches who comes in hard and takes the team as far as they can go before flaming out, like a Torts or a Boudreau (not necessarily those guys). I honestly think we're passed our window for that to take us any further than we've been. And we wouldn't hire that guy mid-season, you do that in the off season when one of these guys are fired from wherever they've worn at their welcome and you grab on, like if we had gotten Trotz before he went to New York.

There's a lot of shitty parents out there....

I've been on the Toronto train most of the season... ...SO it'll probably be Hamilton.

Darn, you guys be old.

The only opinions from TSN I care about: TSN panel supposedly discussing the West Semi-final: Milt: If the the Riders think they can play like that against Winnipeg next week (and win), they got another thing coming. Matt: You're darn right.

Beat me to it.

Meh. it’s a game played for our entertainment.

Love the chatter though. It's good entertainment and the league needs more of it, imo.

Love it. can’t wait for the games.

We've all been there.

Just like the player awards are based on stats over actual play on the field, Coach of the Year awards are often about the "most improved" team as opposed to the "best" team.

I fully admit to underappreciating him until I saw him out of the line up early this season. I am now a believer.

Let's just say it moved me..... TO A BIGGER HOUSE! Uh oh, I said the quiet part loud and the loud part quiet.

It will be nice to get back to a full season next year. Depending on how much of our team we can keep together.

Conditions were also...less than ideal.

Definitely my bad. I superimposed a TD onto the score in my head. mea culpa.

I definitely did not expect Demski or Alford to win the nominations. Very pleased at their All Star status, however.

You are right that it was not to win the game, but before that score, it was 13-7, so I don't know if I'd say it wasn't in question. It was as time expired, which was the exciting part.

That was my first thought, but it was on Thanksgiving and TrueBlue specified play off performance.

Chris Garrett's 2011 final in what was supposed to be the last game at the old barn. When he out stretched his hand to score the final TD to win the game, we thought it was the perfect send-off.

He’s not wrong.

Yeah, gross.

I absolutely want Streveler for only two games.

No. Strev has more experience in our system and with our players than McGuire. He has more playing time over the last two seasons.
