Should never have went to that party at Mike Duffy's house.... yeah you have a few drinks and then find out 20 years later you have a daughter in Peru. La Paz Smith....A homely girl, but good hands.
-
Taman says that although Smith is a "good kid" there is the possibility he could be released. He also says the event that precipitated the suspension happened in Ottawa.
-
Garcia hitting the field is more absurd than the number of times Michael Bishop or Buck returned to action?....no. It's his age that's in question, not his competence. If he can't cut it in practice; he doesn't play.

Is Kent Austin the most "hated" coach in the league?
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
This fan never hates an opposing coach unless my team gets beaten by him and he acts like a ****** in victory. ...At this time, there is no hate for Austin from me. Ask other coaches and his own team's fans and you will get a different answer. -
Argos at Als / Leos at Stampeders

He looks like he's trying to decide if he sat in a pie or not Thinkin the Don just made boob-boom in his strides and hasn't realized it yet. -
Time For The Als To Hire Barresi As OC

Remind you of someone else ... someone a little closer to home? -
Hamilton Spectator Sports Page Headline for August 1: FITZ causes FITS

I think the Cats are susceptible to the long ball and predict a big game from Kelly. ...would be knocked out, to see Fitz more active in the O.

Telling Bryant Turner comment ...
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree. First impulse is to say JJ, but at least he did his job some of the time. Burke was an apathetic quasi-nice guy who lacked energy and commitment to his team...a Cancer doesn't have to actively subvert , it can be more subtle, like a coach who doesn't trust or lead his charges. -
Stop with the East/West imbalance already. Way too much conversation revolving around an imaginary geographic line that separates two divisions. Unfortunately these groups are not equal in number and features one team which moves back and forth over the line with regularity. All that matters is our division...whichever one it is this year.

Which Coach gets an early paid Vacation?
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Only 25K for Geroy's glorification @ BCP? Plenty of no shows in the stands at McMaster... I've seen more people lined up at a Tim Horton's This is not good. -
What a nightmare he was. Regardless of whether the Bombers signed Cauchy to attract Henoc or because he was the best they could find...another example of what a horribly run organization we were.
-
Why would they? How many current players/coaches/management knew or played for the man (Suber, Watson, Pierce)? I sure don't mean to belittle his memory, but I would think we, the fans, remember him more fondly than most current members of the organization...and that's a damn shame.

15 carries for 19 yards
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to Arnold_Palmer's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I'm OK with platooning the running backs....using a Cotton blend -
Hal Sigurdson was an exceptional football writer and Sports Editor at the Freep from the mid 70s until around 1990. His writing style was more homespun and folksy than Matheson's. I used to hate Jack Matheson for being hugely biased toward the home side and being overly critical during lean times. In hindsight, I think it was because he truly bled blue and gold...Caring too much about the Blue Bombers is something you sure can't say about too many Winnipeg broadcasters/journalists today.

Hajrullahu Vs. Renaud
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Although, you might be surprised who could come out of the woodwork if you need him. In his final season with the Bombers, Joe Poplawski assumed the placekicking chores. Trevor Kennerd missed 8 games in 1986 and Cal Murphy lost confidence in Paul Osbaldiston. Poplawski connected on 8 out of 10 field goals.

Hajrullahu Vs. Renaud
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You saw what happened when one of two goes down to injury. A disadvantage of having only one kicker is, who plays in his place if he is hurt. -
Quick Whit is just horrible. He should apply the same nicker to himself...only use Dim or Nit on the front end of Wit.

Lawless Goes Rogue
Pete Catan's Ghost replied to Pete Catan's Ghost's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Hustler does play the straight man to GL's train wreck broadcast style well. Sort of MacLean/Cherry without Don's nationalistic likability. -
I know Lawless is a baffling commentator and master confabulator, but he's really dropping them today. This is the first time I've listened to the 1290 pre-game show this year, so prior to this I didn't have a handle on how truly nuts GL has become. Regarding him seeing Chris Walby getting ready for today's game, Lawless says: "There's something unsettling about watching the mammoth hanging out here"...Huh? Unsettling? Was he naked? When comparing the coaching styles of Osh and Chris Jones, GL goes on a tirade about how Jones considers the media to be "something he would scrape off the bottom of his shoe" he says Jones "is bad for the CFL". I guess Gary has never had the opportunity to interview Don Matthews. If he thinks Jones is rough, the Don would have made him weep. So now I can't change the station...just waiting for Gary's next beauty...Great stuff.
