  1. Maybe Dickenson should threaten his STC Killam for his boneheaded decisions to go for two points on at least 2 different occasions that failed & the botched fake FG attempt. A guy one row up from me was yelling, "Fake, fake. It's a fake!" I asked him how he knew & he said that the regular holder didn't come outwith the FG unit. The backup qb Tommy Stevens did. If a fan coukd see that & knew it was a fake then so did the RedBlacks. Plus it was about third & three. Not a third & one. The Stamps had 6 points left on the field because of dumb playcalling. Enough to have won this game Maybe Killam should be fired. Those were his decisions. Dickenson has to look in the mirror first before passing out blame.
  2. I agree last year was the time to get rid of him but the coaches cap... which has hindered teams from making needed changes. Hopefully, this off season that is done away with. However, with our league leadership in place, I won't hold my breath. However, no one can deny that injuries have been a huge blow to the Riders & is playing a part in the way they're playing.
  3. Not to stick up for Dickenson, but how well would O'Shea coach if we lost Collaros for the year with a broken leg? If we lost 4 out of our starting 5 OL? Had a new set of receivers save for one. Let's say, Rasheed Bailey as the other starting receivers were out with injuries? What if all we had was Dru Brown to lead the way? How good would Osh be as a coach? Like the 5-13 HC in 2014 or the 15-3 HC last season? The IQ of a HC rises & falls with the level of talent he has on the team around him. The injury bug has decimated the Riders. I have no sympathy for the Riders but still, that has had a huge effect on that team.
  4. The Lions are built to win the Western final INDOORS. A fast track with weather not the issue. We're built to grind it out on the ground with Oliveira when it's minus 15 on a frozen field & to wear down other teams with our physicality as well. We need to win the West & have the WF at home to go to the Grey Cup.
  5. Very sour news but what did everyone expect from the guy. Lemon's always been a selfish, Me First player. he'll never change. Montreal lost Weineke & Lewis to free agency before the ownership change. They obviously had extra money lying around that other teams didn't. As far as Usher goes, maybe he comes here with all the veterans around him & he changes his style of play because there'd be hell to pay in the locker room with Bighill, Alexander Jefferson & Jeffcoat as well as others not very happy if he didn't. If we sign him & that's a big IF, we have to give the guy a chance.
  6. I thought the last one was about who we thought the best goalie was. If it's just about not winning a Stanley Cup then I'll choose Mike Palmateer.
  7. 1. Mike Gartner 2, Josh Morrisey 3.Mike Palmateer.
  8. The Lions sure are a cocky bunch for a team that hasn't won anything yet?? I found myself pulling for the Riders which is like inhaling ammonia in a plastic bag. Killam wouldn't last very long as a HC. At least, I don't think he would. All he's known is the Stampeder Way of doing things for nearly 20 years. He's only coached under Huff & Dickenson. Every team has a different culture & maybe the way the Stamps are doing things now isn't as good as it used to be.
  9. You can't discount the Lions. That front 7 & receiving corps is outstanding. The Top 3 are in a league of their own.
  10. What are your thoughts on the DL, in particular, Ricky Walker? Is he the real deal? Should they play Miles Fox as well in the rotation? I'm thinking Jake Thomas career is seriously winding down but he's Canadian so that plays into him getting playing time.
  11. Last year, Dan Clarke was a warrior. The best damned OL to ever put on a Rider jersey. Now, with all the injuries the OL has had this season, the Riders don't bring him back. That's an odd one to figure out. Logan Bandy has taken his Center spot. Can't the former world's best OL, the biggest impact player to ever play the game not play Guard? Me thinks that cheeky ass speech he made at the CFL Awards where he mocked the sacks his line gave up & killing Fajardo rubbed team officials the wrong way. "No quarterback was killed in the making of this speech". Ouch. Kind of a dickish thing to say about your OL teammates in a major speech at the CFL Awards. I'm sure Dickenson, O'Day & Fajardo were laughing. Not. Some people just don't have a sense of humour, I guess..
  12. Lol, I forgot about that little detail. Maybe you're right but I just don't think we bring him in. He'll want too much money.
  13. That's the football player Schoen talking. The player whose helmet you have to hide on the bench so he can't go out on the field & hurt himself even more. It's not what he thinks but the medical staff whose opinions really count. I'm glad we're on a bye this coming week.
  14. The Lions will pay & we won't. That's how I see it. If it's any team, it'll be the Lions. Actually, AFAIAC, Lemon can go suck on one.
  15. Bombers to Lemon: "Come play for us. We'll try to make it work financially for both of us ." Lemon to Bombers: Show me the money or I'll go play for the worst team in the CFL. I don't care if I make the playoffs. I don't care if I win a Grey Cup. I just want to get paid!!!" Bombers to Lemon: "See ya."
  16. Cornelius looks pissed off & fed up.
  17. Do you need some gin?
  18. Willie with the block.
  19. That's what I was saying last week.
  20. What if Eli is worse? As in not ready for Prime Time yet??? It's not like Dobson is lighting it up.
  21. Prukop gets to **** up twice & won't get cut. Pigrome fails to get a yard on one attempt & he gets cut. WTH???
  22. Where's his scary clown mask??
