Not much of a point in it either anymore since the haters have already dug in and those that believe him will continue to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He served a suspension and fined for a nasty headshot. Is that the type of player we call outstanding? That to me is the opposite of outstanding and negates anything positive he does on the field. So play as dirty as you like, but be extra careful what you ingest! Yes, the hypocrisy is stunning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khari easily did more to exceeed expectations especially being put in such a shitty situation taking over just before the regular season.

If he did, it would be following a very common script: a premier athlete who is aging but fears losing that competitive edge and everything that comes with it, turns to PEDs to extend or enhance his/her career.

Noeller Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 I personally think it's ****** that they want to give Van Zeyl the MOOL just because he's never won it before and maybe deserved it in years past.

17to85 Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 i didn't need to be told by anyone that Bryant has been head and shoulders above anyone else on the Bombers OL.

JCon Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) Steinauer is rookie HC. Yes, the TiCats were expected to do well, with Masoli as their QB, but they exceeded even that. They set a new team record. They went unbeaten at home. KJ is great story, bravo, but Orlondo is was the best coach this year. The TiCats went 15-3. Over the past 20 years only the Stamps (x2) and Montreal (x1) have won 15 games in a year. Edited November 8, 2019 by JCon sweep the leg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And khari got dumped in there with no prep time. That is a hell of an accomplishment and easily in my.mind more impressive than a guy leading an already good team to a good record.

If you want to award the best coach, a lot of time it's the guy with the best record. The reason why I and many think the best coach is often the "most improved" is because if you go from bad to good, it's easy to lay the reason on the coach. It shows the coach was able to get the best out of what showed in the past to be a mediocre roster. If the GM had brought in a bunch of talent in that off-season, you could argue the coach instantly found a way to develop chemistry in a roster with a lot of new guys. For your best record=best coach perspective, often you can see that a great roster will give you a great record. If that turns out to be true, then it doesn't have much to do with coaching, as is the case for Steinauer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
