Peoples fascination with 4 string qbs is borderline stupidity in this town. Seriously i liked Yantz but lets not pretend he was some cant miss QB... If he was... Somebody else would have given him a chance. I mean... Alex Brink and Joey Elliot and countless other failed one point bomber qb saviours were all given chances after being with the bombers... Yantz wasnt. What does that tell you. Your agenda witb MOS is showing once again. Its ironic your pic is that of a monkey seeing as they like to throw their **** around also.

As someone who has worked in a leadership spot nearly my entire adult life I can tell you that people can disagree sharply and it can be completely healthy and beneficial to their relationship and success. You are describing how 5 year olds might react, not professionals. You will need better than this kind of crap if you hope to re-inforce and sell your anti-MOS agenda.

Jpan85 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Posted June 12, 2017 I have also heard Walters say that it can get heated when everyone is in the room discussing what moves they make not just between Walters and O'Shea.

MOS seems very narrow minded tunnel visioned to me .... if you are not next up to bat in his mind you are excluded from his plans .... see Bryan Bennett & U of M QB Yantz a couple years back ... many promises were made to Yantz but he never got to play a single down (and like Apodaca he had the best arm in camp) ... he was better than some of the Cdn QBs we see around the CFL this year. Both Yantz and Apodaca were never given a chance and MOS never planned to give them a chance .... this is a major character flaw with MOS Where is Yantz now? Given how hard it is to find QBs if he was anywhere near the talent your are proclaiming he'd have had endless chances to make rosters. GCn20, SPuDS, Dr. Blue and 2 others 5

Mark F Posted June 12, 2017 Report Posted June 12, 2017 Disagreement is fine. Strong disagreement is fine. Making decisions when angry is not fine. Let's hope they don't do that. Anyway, I suspect we're making something out of nothing. The Classic, SPuDS and GCJenks 3

Unless you're privy to what takes place behind closed doors, you can't make statements based on conjecture and pass them off as fact. Strong personalities will disagree on things and argue about them. I don't think that's necessarily detrimental or unhealthy permitted the parties do so respectfully, which I think is the case with the WFC at this point in time. SPuDS and blitzmore 2

From Walters answer it sounded more like his role is to supply the coaches with the personnel and step back, not argue about who gets to stay or go. Walters is focused on balancing the SMS which is probably something that O'Shea doesn't give a rat's ass about. Thus the head-butting. The Classic 1

I know what i saw of him in practice (he was very good with a great arm).... I am guessing there was no special character flaw in the man or that he was just too green to be a worthwhile project .... it is most likely that MOS just has no interest in Apo and any reason given for his departure will be self justification and NOT good football reasons

Not a shocker based on what you've posted in this thread. Your rationale is flawed and you seem to have a very obvious, negative bias against O'Shea. What was done in 2014 or 2015 is irrelevant at this point, anyway. And seriously, what would you like him to do about Hall now? Edited June 12, 2017 by blue_gold_84 SPuDS and Goalie 2
Rod Black Posted June 12, 2017 Report Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) Mike O'Shea also takes into consideration the players compass. Is this team member going to help the squads focus or hurt it? We already know that the coach whacks guys that are jerks, tardy, don't attend physio and other responsibilities. Maybe the behind scenes behaviors is how we got some surprising cuts. As an example kuale was a ****, and there have been others. Edited June 12, 2017 by Rod Black

Goalie Posted June 12, 2017 Report Posted June 12, 2017 Yup. Was just gonna say... Maybe the bombers have 3 qbs on the roster who are better. No worries tho another 4th stringer will come in and be declared the saviour. blitzmore, SPuDS and The Classic 3
