A bunch of us had gotten together and rented a cabin for the weekend. The game was such a f****** disaster it literally ruined the weekend. Everyone was in a bad mood after and some people even left early and went home that night lol. I was at the game. Sitting in the end zone. I just stopped paying attention after half time. And left mid way through the 3rd to wonder around while trying to not puke. Just absolutely horrid. Bomberfan85 and Bubba Zanetti 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 That TSN interview was useless, we already knew that the Coach was called to clean up the situation. I would be interested in knowing the details if one of the other players stabbed Matthews, if he had a bad attitude, lazy work ethic etc..... The only positive that I can see of this situation is that receiver is a position that a guy can come in from the NFL and be productive right away.

If he had great talent, who knows what could have happened. Maybe he was a bad head coach. I don't know. But when you have a great QB and lots of talent you can make even a bad coach look decent. (Heh, even I could have coached the Gretzky-led Edmonton Oilers to multiple Stanley Cups) Yeah but it's not a chick and egg argument, you can evaluate a head coach based on what the talent level of a team is. We've seen lots of coaches for this team without any talent whatsoever do more than Tim Burke did. Burke was a loser as a head coach and thus his team played like losers. Take Mike Kelly for example, he wasn't any screaming hell of a head coach and his rosters were pretty lacklustre too, but he got more out of his players than Burke ever did. Lapo had essentially the same roster and got way more than Burke did. Burke was a bad head coach whether he had talent or not. Worst one I've seen on this team and I've seen some bad ones. Worse than Jim Daley, worse than Jeff Reinbold... Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way too much gloom in here, time for a GOOD bomber fan moment... my then-girlfriend (now wife) and I went to the 2011 GC in Vancouver, ended up going to the Riderville pavilion for Grey Cup festivities because some people said it was good (which, in fairness it was). Upon entering the pavilion, they gave you these green beads to wear, and she just straight up refused them lol. "Oh, I don't do green" ~ actual quote.
