Yyyyyyyikes. I flipped to curling after the 4th one. You know it's an ugly one when I'd rather watch Brad Gushue do anything...

All I know is that there's a lot more going on behind the scenes than we know about. I get that the wins aren't there yet, but it seems like the road is being paved. I think there were just WAY more potholes than anyone ever knew.

Getting it taken to em so far. Pace of play, aided by penalty, decidedly in Nash favour.

I maintain that this team isn't viewed any better today than it was 2 years ago as nothing has changed. No one who is a quality coach employed now will come here if they are already a coordinator somewhere else. Why would they? So, it'll be a position coach who wants the promotion. But probably an unproven rookie OC who was a position coach. So, don't expect Jason Maas to come here. Don't expect Marcus Brady. Or George Cortez.They won't be coming. It's the culture. It's just what they do. It's The Bomber Way. And you're welcome to maintain that, but the fact is you're wrong.

Because, as has been stated multiple times, the reputation is changing. Regardless of what you Rabble Rabble types say, players and coaches are wanting to come there. Westerman came because he said it's being run like an NFL organization. The wins might not be there, but the culture is changing and wins should hopefully follow.

Burris can choke on a bag of dicks. **** that guy. All happy and smiles when things are going well, and as soon as they're not, he is the first to start pointing fingers and whine about everything. The amount of hype that guy gets absolutely sickens me.

Unfortunately, Etchefeuille was all that was available at that time.....

We know that Stubler and Steinauer were his first two choices, but he couldn't get them to come to Winnipeg. Stubler was close, at one point, but eventually chose Calgary, which you can't blame him for. This team had a REAL bad reputation, but nice to see that players and coaches are seeing the change, even if fans don't know anything...

And that's just wrong....gross.

We aren't discussing whether or not he would be a good DC. Just whether or not it would be unrealistic to expect him to know how to Design a Defense along with another DC (Etch), which is what your original statement was. That it would be unrealistic to assume so. I'm simply stating that since he's already shown he can take on field experience and transfer that to a playbook via Special teams. It isn't unrealistic that he could also do that for a Defense. Whether or not it would work out is another discussion all together. If he were a former DC at any level then I'd agree with you. As he wasn't I don't. So only DC's can recognize or design defensive schemes then? I'm betting that lots of defensive position coaches can, to various degrees do it, and I'm willing to bet that some players can too. I know this because there is no "magic" that happens once someone is named defensive coordinator. They are not suddenly able to do things that they couldn't do before, it's just that they are now being paid and given the responsibility for doing it. So does O'shea have a background that might allow him to help a DC put together a defensive package? Of course he does. Arguing that he doesn't is just plain silly. Would O'Shea be really good at doing it? Maybe, maybe not. Sure that's how it works. Once someone has enough experience points they level up and gain new skills that they don't have access to before. *finger snaps*

Every. F***ing. Time........

ssssssiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhhhhhhhh....................

started 2-2, won 12 straight, then lost the final 2 games, including the final game of the season to Calgary, which let them into the playoffs and..............well, we don't need to go there.......

... And that OL.....

Ha ha ha ha ha ha. It's okay... I'm at least one or the other...

Cluck Cluck cluck.fyp.

The media just loves that QB-turned-Rec story and will be all over that when voting.

Ha ha yeah, that's the thing...i picked a good one, trust me. She's all in. Easily more of a craft beer nerd than me. Eventually she wants a bar in the basement (and it would be HER bar) so she can have all that stuff up on display. She's definitely not the snotty ***** that wants fashionable **** up around the house, that's for sure...

Have not the CC beer gardens been fails in the past?All the festival events are a near sellout right now. Guaranteed money at this point and the game will be the bonus gravy...

Westerman is gonna get the Royal screw job on his Canadian....

The gf and I have been doing that kind of collecting and decorating our house with a lot of it. She loves collecting growlers from different places and other signage. 17to85 says we're immature and the house looks like a frat but we enjoy it! *waves at dave*

Ya luckily it'll be the first two hours on the Friday so she should be alright....

You did give the snort of derision the first time this came up last fall

They really and truly did. I'd have suggested you but wasn't sure you'd be allowed to go......
