Tracker Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 He called a spade a spade,and his feelings are probably not a surprise to anyone in the locker room. Unless Hervey is completely witless, he has likely warned the players and coaches repeatedly and there will be a bloodbath at the end of the season.

braddman19 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 So would Rottier be an upgrade for us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 So would Rottier be an upgrade for us? IMO it wouldn't hurt to take a look. Doesn't sound like it would take much to pry him out of Edmonton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

braddman19 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Curious on this though, if the end-game is to get Rottier off of his team, Hervey sure did a shitty job of trying to hide his feelings. Here, I would like to trade you Rottier, but I warn you, he plays like garbage, smells funny, and likes to do needle-work...... so I would like your very best offer.

Well, either he's an emotional fool or has some secret plan to make Rottier play better by absolutely sewering him in the media. I know which option I'd choose.

Mr Dee Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Rottier 'n Denmark? There's something familiar about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Perfect Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Rottier hey? Sure, lets just trade crap, for more crap. Has anyone actually paid attention to the Edmonton line, and Rottier in particular this year? It isn't pretty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Well, they had an American playing the other guard position and I don't know which one did worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you realize no one is trading a starting OL from a winning team at this point in the season. Sometimes a change of scenery can make a world of difference.

Jacquie Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 And there's more: @PaulWiecek: Eskimos close their locker room to media for rest of the season. That was the problem with Ed Hervey's team -- not secretive enough. I can't see the league allowing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMs get two, manybe three head coaches to scapegoat before they walk the plank themselves. Maybe Greg Marshall redux? Some mules respond well to a carrot, others to a stick- some need a very big stick. Hervey has gone all-in with his comments. It will be interesting to see what comes of this.

rebusrankin Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Side tangent, is Simeon Rottier worth a look? Haven't paid attention to him specifically. I know Edmonton's line has been poor over all. Thought ODonnell was unimpressive at tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
