Don't think that will happen, tone is set. Mike O'Shea expects to make the playoffs and compete for the Grey Cup. Tim 'dear in the headlights' Burke, well, I would dare to say #1 in all time loser coaches for us, even ahead of Kelly and Reinbold, as at least those two took charge. Burke didn't take charge and set us up for failure. I think O'Shea, by years end, will be a front runner for coach of the year. I would tend to agree that Burke was the worst head coach I have ever seen this team employ. Now obviously there's a lot of years I wasn't around to see, but we've had some bad ones in the last 30 years and Burke was as bad or worse than all of them. Never have I seen a team fold at the first sign of adversity like last years team did and that all comes back on the guy who is supposed to lead this team. Actually, it comes back to the smarts of the man who thought Burke was the answer to replace LaPolice. And that includes some of those here who thought the same. Ouch. you really want to start this argument for no reason?

media act like entitled jackasses, news at 11. Just ridiculous how they expect teams to treat them like ******* royalty.

stand out last year, stand out in preseason... but no we'll start the ***** who didn't stand out in preseason at all.

wild not starting = fail.

telling Kelly to get ****** shouldn't be a black mark on a player. You know who else Mike Kelly said had a bad attitude? Doug Brown.

yeah but Calgary had starters on D too and Willy looked like he coulda gone for 400+ yards passing if he played the whole game and his receivers didn't grease up their hands before the game. Calgary wasn't all that impressive against Winnipeg either, defensively at least.

all aboard the Cornish train.

that's because the captain is a dirty double crossing bastard who will kick your ass and leave you to die on a deserted island.

is it wrong that we started buying gibsons finest a lot simply because they're a CFL sponsor? Honestly if I'm buying rye I tend to just go with Crown Royal, it's what I grew up drinking so it just kind of stuck with me.

yeah rum is just bad news all around... we don't get along rum and I

if we're holding last years record against players then we should have had a LOT more new faces this year than we do.

he's better than Kelly so absolutely. Thought the Bellefool man crush is a powerful force.

I just don't see how anyone can spin this as a bad move... It's an entry level position that they created simply because they liked the guy as a guest coach. That to me seems like a smart way to do things. Hey we like what this guy is doing, let's create a spot for him on the staff and see if he grows into more than just a quality control coach.

Braley has ruled the CFL with an iron fist for a long time now.

how do you figure that?

and when you've fired as many coaches as the bombers have recently experienced rock solid coaches don't want to go through that ****. Let's face it the last decade this team has been dragged through all kinds of **** and it's going to take time to repair the reputation.

I said it in the offseason, it's the worst time to move west for the Bombers. Man I woulda loved to stay in the east just one more year. All you gotta worry about then is Ray, in the west it's tougher. But I guess this is all part of the pander to Southern Ontario mentality that the CFL is so fond of.

if nothing else this pre-season made me hopeful that Willy can get the job done. I liked a lot of things that the offense showed, I think they can be decent this year which let's face it is a huge step up from the last 3 or 4 years.

Same old Brink. Send pressure he's not doing anything.

I just don't understand how minor league football leagues don't take hold... Hockey and baseball can both make a go of it why not football?

There was one pass Smith threw in the first half that was just a flat out amazing pass... then there were the ones that landed nowhere near a receiver. Michael Bishop had more accuracy than that.

yeah but what kind of schemes are they running? A veteran like Burris should be able to pick apart a vanilla D no trouble.

Of course, I've been proven wrong before. Henry making those guys look like allstars against Montreal right now. veteran looks good in preseason against god knows what kind of competition... stop the presses.

post calvillo als look to be in trouble.
