Wow, you know everything there is to know about the mechanics of football, coaching, schemes AND you're an expert in sports medicine too! With all that knowledge and the obvious demands you must have on your time from CFL and NFL teams desperate for your input, I'm amazed that you can find a moment here and there to post on this forum. Thank you so much...

Last time I checked he was 10-3 this year in the regular season. How, exactly, does this make him a "below-average QB"

And this is why I'm so very thankful that you are NOT Walters

You need to drop the zeros and I think you're just about right

Ya, that's equally laughable. So you're suggesting that this is the case "Please give me a Rider game because they're just sooooo dreamy." Actually, I take that back. It's not equally laughable, it's much more laughable. You would, of course, have some evidence to back this up, or is this another one of those "opinions" that you like to fling around?

Dude, seriously? You actually think that there are refs out there going "Please give me a Bomber game to call cause I want to completely screw them over." Ya, ok then.

Personally, if it takes a review ref more than 60 seconds to come to a decision, then the play was so close that the call on the field should automatically stand. There's either clear evidence or there isn't.

Nice try, but you said that Nichols was no "spring chicken". At 29, clearly he's not old by QB standards, so you were wrong and trying to move the goal posts doesn't change that

If you're not smart enough to realize you're not smart enough: Dunning–Kruger effect

That's why some of us are smart enough not to make silly proclamations. I'd rather watch and see what happens instead of pretending that I have any way of knowing what's going to happen, because just like you, I have no clue.

Well at least there's bacon, and where there's bacon there's hope.

thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Nice call Kreskin. Do you still have any of the President Hillary t-shirts left?

It appears that complaining isn't limited to Winnipegers.

I seem to remember a game this year that they won, but it took them a field goal on the last play of the game in order to do it. Yes they are a good team, but they most certainly are not "unbeatable".

I also remember the 66 blizzard because my parents and all the other adults on our rural road had to clear out a half mile in order to get to the highway. I was too little to help so I just got to play on the drifts!

I remember that our rear wheel drive cruisers kept getting stuck so we had to use some front wheel drive K-Cars to patrol in for a day.

I think you must have played a few too many games without a mask . Chamblin was a terrible DC and an even worse HC. No thank you.

I spit coffee all over my monitor when I read that. Thanks Dee, thanks loads.

Or it might have gone like this: Walters: Mike, what where you thinking? O'Shea: I thought it as the best option at the time. Walters: Well, in hindsight you sure messed that one up Mike. O'Shea: You might be right Kyle, but I have two words for you. "Addison Richards" <pause> Walters: I'll be in my office if you need anything.

It might have gone something like this: Walters: Hey Mike, why did you decide to kick the field goal instead going for the first down? O'Shea: Because I decided that was the better call. Walters: Fine, but remember, if you ever want my advice on a coaching decision, I'm ready to bring my three years as a mediocre CFL special teams coach to bear. O'Shea: Thanks for that Kyle, I'll keep it in mind.

So, with the right players, a coach can have success. And in other news, rain is wet.

No he wouldn't, but as it looked to me, he simply wasn't going to respond because the decision was O'Shea's alone to make and Walters' feelings, one way or the other would be irrelevant and he wasn't going to take the bait. In other words, "the stupid question receives the appropriate answer".

Is it okay if I say "I thought it already had"...?
