Two sources have just told me offensive co-ordinator Rick Worman has been fired by the #Als, barely more than a week into training camp.

Weird if true. Must have done something really dumb or ticked Popp off.

Madani tweeted he was drinking during meetings.

That would be major-league dumb.

What was his beverage of choice? Not that it matters!

 

Maybe time to recall Maggy Kelly from purgatory!!!???

Beer.

Ryan Dinwiddie named offensive coordinator

Wow.

Ryan Dinwiddie named offensive coordinator

 

got a feeling that Berry will come back as consultant to the Als

This should be a gong show. Why do I have a feeling it won't be.

They hire a head coach the GM didn't want, and then they fire their OC before the first preseason game. 

 

Does anyone like anything going on in Montreal right now?

For the last time, it's Telly Savalas, not Kelly Savalas.  You make 0 sense.

Fired for having a beer?  What are the Als coaching,little kids? It was a bad decision but a firing one?

Would you get fired for drinking at work?

I'd be fired every day. 

Definition of a workaholic...'a guy who drinks on the job' Guess Worman forgot to put that on his resume. Looks good on ya Popp. Finally some other team is grabbing the bozo spotlight.

Nope. CFO takes me to kings head for power lunches. Not much happens in the afternoon following it.

to be fair, popp wasn't consulted on the higgins hiring and higgins hired worman.

Maybe. But I find it strange that a guy with a good reputation as a coach would suddenly start drinking in front of his players. It just doesn't make sense. I know Rick Worman personally. I talked to him a few months ago. It just seems so out of character & so sad for the man. 

 

What's so wrong with having a few pops when you have a meeting with Jim Popp?  I'd be confused too.

Id be somewhat surprised if he was fired for having one beer one time.  Has to be more than that.  But lets be honest - some places dont mind a couple of drinks at lunch but most do.  I used to work for a place where it was okay to get a hummer in the bathroom.  Doesnt meant thats the norm.

For an organization that is supposed to be a model franchise and what not they sure seem to have a lot of weird **** go down there.  

I sense a crossover!!

I would like to know the context of this as it seems like overkill to be fired over consumption of a single beer unless he had a serious drinking problem.  Did the club make beer available in the clubhouse or did he bring it in himself???....If they came off practice and it was hot or muggy and the guy doesn't drink pop but was reeeal thirsty...

I sense Jim Popp is also on "rubber legs"....

I think we need to remember that it was Madani who made the remark about Worman being fired for sipping a beer and remember all of the comments made here about how Madani penchant for dramatics.

I'm told that Rick Worman was really tough to work with. The QBs had a tough time with him. #Alouettes #CFL

GM Jim Popp on Rick Worman's firing: "There's been numerous things on and off the field." #Alouettes #CFL
