From 3downnation: Alouettes talking to potential general managers in case they fire Kavis Reed Posted on November 6, 2018 by Justin Dunk // 0 Comments Montreal Alouettes president Patrick Boivin refused to discuss the status of anyone in the Als football operations department but that hasn’t kept the organization from having conversations with potential general managers. Sources say the Alouettes have spoken to multiple people regarding the GM position while Kavis Reed continues to work in the role – orchestrating two trades at the deadline while re-signing quarterbacks Antonio Pipkin, Vernon Adams and Jeff Mathews recently – and Boivin remains mum on his future

That egregious failure had to be more on Popp than Trestman. You cannot make chicken soup out of chicken feathers.

It's shocking but true.

You may well be right- the next week or two will tell.

Take that news with a pinch of salt.

Welcome to this forum which usually, but not always entertaining. You have our sympathies for living in Alberta.

If the Edmonton Sun has the same degree of credibility and integrity as the Winnipeg Sun and all the other Sun papers, I would not put much stock in this report. Reilly had the same expression as someone who had to clean out a septic tank during the game. Body language is not infallible but its usually pretty darned accurate, and Reilly's looked to express a lot of dissatisfaction.

No real point in further slagging Maas- he is a dead man walking and is probably packing all the while dreading The Phone Call. Can't be fun to be him these days.

Samuel Lenghorn Clemens' non de plume was Mark Twain. He took the name from the calls sounders would make as they threw out measuring weights on lines at the front of Mississippi steamboats to determine channel depth. The channels changed yearly so had to be re-marked every few months.

The trouble with stupid people is that they do not realize that they are stupid. I think Sam Clemens said that.

But if you take that away from Rider fans, what do they have left? Not much.

It doesn't take many cretins to spoil the atmosphere of any gathering, even if its an online forum. When the bashing becomes ugly, the best members will simply check out or just lurk and everyone loses. Then we have another ourbombers.

Yes, but his detractors will always say that he Sukhs.

As infuriating as it is on occasion to see a eastern poor team stumble into the playoffs with a worse record than western teams (and sometimes win the Cup), there is a value to the east-west rivalry tradition. To me, it is part of the character of the CFL and non-negotiable.

Probably at the local Lada dealer.

Whatever kind of goat gonad supplements Lulay was on have worn off and their defence is porous.

Because Collaros has done playing his normal two good games per year and the slugs backing him up are little short of pathetic.

I would have believed that performance if they had done a field amputation on the spot.

Would that not fall under the heading of "unsportsmanlike conduct"?

I really liked how Peter Dyakowski came across in his interview. He might make a great panelist if he can do that while being in the CFLPA.

No matter the outcome, this will be a memorable game for many reasons. Not the least of these is that one team or the other will have bragging rights for six months while the other will be proposing excuses and/or damning their coaching. This is for all the marbles and may even have greater emotional value than the western final the following week.

Why the heck not? Playoff games often come down to the kicking game making the difference and this is really a nothing game to the Bombers although the Eskies are dressing all their starters, at least to start. Might as well give Medlock the day off.

I cannot see Trestman committing himself to another team until his wife's health is resolved, and maybe not even then for awhile. Tate signing in Regina is a "meh"- I guess they need all the sub-par QB's they can find.

I would think that the Eskies and Lions would also be interested.

The game was almost painful to watch, and reached levels of apathy that should not exist.
