The guy is a fkn troll because he was cut... Wonder what he would have said on twitter when we were all saying he was the weak link on the OL I don't disagree, but it does make a point a lot of us have been saying and getting ridiculed for. O'Shea doesn't hold his players accountable for what they do on the football field.I'm no longer in the O'Shea fan club, but what kind of penalty can he impose on a player when that player knows there is no one to step in if he is turfed?

Marcel Bellefeuille - When does he get axed
I think it's both. We lack talent, but then you look at the play calling on offence and special teams and wonder wtf is going on. MOS also needs to start making tough decisions. Pull that QB when he's not playing well. At least pull him in the 4th quarter if he hasn't done anything all day. And Walters...seriously dude. Chevron Walker!?!?? Wtf were you thinking!?!!??!!! Chevon Walker was as useful in carying the ball as a shopping cart. If thats the best we can do, we are in next year country already. Walker and Marshall didn't get a lot of help from either the playcalling or the O-line, though.

Kudos to Doug Brown
Two games ago, I would have agreed with you, but the team has deteriorated to the point where nothing short of radical surgery will help. O'Shea will not make changes and he cannot assess talent to save his life. Even the special teams which were supposed to be his forte have been consistently poor until two games ago, and not so hot today.

Bombers Blown Out by 0 & 9 Team ... Oh well, yawn
The D is not 'folding' they are getting scorched in second half's because the opposition is making adjustments (when they aren't taking stupid undisciplined penalties). These are deeper rooted problems than just running out of gas. It has to be disheartening to a proud player who is giving his all on defence and who knows the game is winnable if only the fourletterwording offense could play even half-decent. I don't wonder at the frustration penalties. The offense gave them a 10 nothing lead to run with. The TD was a gift, but after that, the O went MIA and abandoned the team. .

Morley's play does not detract from him having a valid opinion, but in this case, I disagree with him. We got a good player right now who might be a good homebrew linebacker for years to come.

Etechvery was a worse DC than Bellefeuille is an OC, and it still took two freakin' months for O'Shea to can him. Why would we think that Bellefeuille is on the gangplank? O'Shea is not a bad guy but his command decisions are staggeringly bad.

You have a wonder unfolding right in front of you, so quickly that this precious time will speed by you before you know it. Between watching this miracle and huffing and puffing about sports, there is no contest. Enjoy her all you can.

I am no longer sure that the team believes it can win any more, and that extends right into the coaching ranks, and perhaps even to the GM. 's ability to find the right players to fill the obvious holes.- Kudos to Doug Brown
Damn. Now I have to slay a goat,and read its entrails in order to hunt you down and silence you forever. We Illuminati do not brook intruders.- Bombers Blown Out by 0 & 9 Team ... Oh well, yawn
I've lived through some crappy Bomber regimes and kept the faith that things would improve the next year if not the current one, even though the teams were embarrassing. Maybe I am getting old and cynical or have seen the same scenarios replayed too ofter, but this is as pessimistic as I have ever been. O'Shea's pigheaded stubborness dooms this team to running joke status until he and his subordinates are gone. O'Shea's list of failings should be no surprise to anyone who has watched the team for the past couple of years, listened to the radio coverage or read this forum. There may be hope for Walters but not if he lets this travesty continue to the end of the season. I could accept it if he cleans house (except for Hall) the day after the last game of the season, and I'm pretty sure that game will not be a playoff game.- Kudos to Doug Brown
It was in a distant galaxy long, long ago....- Kudos to Doug Brown
Up until two weeks ago, I was willing to give O'Shea some slack and let him finish the year to show us he deserves to remain the head coach, but he has passed the point of no return. He needs to be fired along with Bellefeuille and whoever the special teams coach is. O'Shea absolutely cannot asses talent and cannot adapt to the game or exploit the other team's weaknesses. The only choce really, is whether to sack O'Shea now or wait until after the next debacle following the Banjo Bowl.- Kudos to Doug Brown
We can't pretend any longer- hiring O'Shea was a colossal mistake, particularly in his choces of underlings and inability to assess player talent in quarterbacks- Kudos to Doug Brown
"Why so many penalties?"- answer: loss of focus "Will there be consequnces?" a: I'm not going to get into that "Will there be a new starting quarterback next week?" a: not going to get into that "What happened in the game?" a: we were doing fine until the penalties. Consider that turd polished. Complete waste of airtime.- [MERGED] Low Down, Rock Bottom (Stone Cold Stunned?)
I think what they meant to say is that the coaches will never quit, no matter how bad they are.- Bombers at Sask. - (Never Mind)
Here's a jolt of reality: the Bombers have had more blowouts this year than wins, and since going 7and 1 last year, we are 5 and 17.- Bombers at Sask. - (Never Mind)
And they are making it look respectable in garbage time even though they were never really in it from the beginning. The silver lining is that they didn't get embarrassed, although chances are that could happen next week... I disagree with you. This game was a disgrace, from start to finish. The score was close at times, but we were never in the game.- Bombers at Sask. - (Never Mind)
Masochists,we are.- Bombers at Sask. - (Never Mind)
Bad Omen Department: On 1290 radio, both Walby and Westwood expect the Blue to lose by at least 20 points. God, I hope not. Losing to the worst team would be bad enough, but getting trounced would be a season low, maybe a decade low for the Bombers. Even Vegas oddsmakers favour the Riders by four points.- Bombers at Sask. - (Never Mind)
A little while ago, I listened to Chevon Walker being interviewed on 'OB. According to his responses to questions, I would judge him to a touch smarter than the average houseplant. Not a good sign, and reminiscent of a Mack Herron interview I heard waaaay back.- Henoc Muamba Released by Colts!
We would have to get Wally really, really really drunk for that one. I would volunteer to buy the booze. - Season Starts After Labour Day
