Brandon Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I don't remember the player, but it's not very surprising. The gong show of Ocho and Sam were ridiculous and could of easily been avoided. I wonder how much is on Popp and how much is on the owners....

holoman Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I rememebr the player but only because when he got cut last year he sent a tweet saying "when it rains it pours.. The cfl website spelled my name wrong in the transactions page" or something to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 This is sad. Sounds like a decent guy and a potentially good player in this league. The odds of Popp surviving this mess are dropping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Also sounds from the tweets from Hef that the ALS league and players association are not helping him recover from career ending injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Jim Popp is an ******* and Wettenhall is a slimy POS, file this under things we already new. Not so easy when you can't hide behind Calvillo is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 So do they sacrifice Calvillo and make him HC next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted November 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 Actually Herb Z was just tweeting that anyone asking about AC as HC eill have to wait. Said he's gonna be but not for a couple years at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 I was sure that AC was going to be the HC next year. Totally fits the Als' mode of making moves that are more splashy than sensible. And those good Als teams were way more than just Calvillo. Sure, he made the whole thing go but they were stacked at every position, especially during the Trestman years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbbfan Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 I wonder why if he was actually good, he didnt get another look else where. Not surprised the als are a gong show behind the scenes. I wonder if he was black listed for the leak and if he actually did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Popp apparently didn't show up for the meetings teams traditionally have with each player on locker cleanout day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearpants Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 So Madani is reporting that both Macoicia and Sunderland are front-runners?... I get that they can both be candidates but technically there can only be one front runner... Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If two guys are neck and neck and running way out in front of the pack, they are frontrunners. Edited November 7, 2016 by gcn11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Does anyone know what Popp said to the players that apparently pissed them all off earlier in the season? Westwood alluded to it on the radio this morning. Popp really should of hired someone else to coach this season and focused on being the GM.... it would of saved his job.
