    I laughed because that rhymes with Dutch Oven and sometimes I'm 12.
  2. Double Blue is life Argonauts Pull Together That's our Cup you've got

    Not the team that I'd have wanted us to play after an unexpected week 1 win. Too many questions about what this Argo team is for me to have confidence in this one. Can't see past our lines getting beaten enough to change the game too far into the Bomber's favor. Still a football game after a long lapse in football games so who knows... but I picked the Bombers on my betting sheet.

    Wait... they were shooters? Missed that bit. Thanks for allowing the thought experiment to play out. Wasn't here to debate or convince an anti-gunner. I know that never gets past the feelings stage. Peace and love, bro.

    The ones in red or blue bandanas? Defintitely! The gun murder rate would plummet to an irrelevancy!

    I agree. Someone ought to revoke those Chicago gun-permits.

    Those darn Urban Chicago white supremacists!

    Personally I believe that Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa was a perfectly normal American guy until Drumpf's racism radicalized him.

    1) MLS&E has yet to show even a quantum of the commitment to being successful on a CFL field that they have in any of their other properties. I seriously doubt that if I strolled thru their offices that I'd see any indication of their even owning the world's oldest pro football franchise. 2)I hope you're right. But most new Head Coaches have a successful pedigree at the coordinator level first. Desperately hoping this won't be a harsh lesson about The Peter Principle.

    Dang, I wish I still had that T-Shirt...

    3 Downs Larger Field Extra man These are my non-negotiables and I'll treat 'em like The Alamo if necessary.

    We're 2 years removed from a trainwreck of a 4-14 season with almost no holdovers from it. I think it's fair to say that nobody has a clue what the Argos actually are.

    Good guy. I'll always remember the Cup run in '91 and what a (literally) big part of the team he was. Charitable too, his work for Purolator Tackle Hunger has helped tens of thousands in need. RIP Schultzie.

    Not a chance.
  15. bluto replied to JCon's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    Yeah... But the other side of that. Hard to imagine a more poorly coached season than what we had to suffer last season. IDK if Dinwiddie is a top tier or even mid tier head coach... But mere competence will look a quantum leap forward by comparison.

    No mention of the one change the Argos made which will make a bigger positive impact than all of the others combined?
  17. bluto replied to JCon's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    Inevitable really.

    I reckon that God's Own will be in full rebuild mode with a brand new rookie HC so I won't root against your boys, but there's a lot of really good reasons that repeats are rare. And if memory serves, the last few times were with mini-dynasties with all-timer QBs at the helm. I'd be astonished if the BB can manage it.

    I'm (very) good with Chamblin being shown the door... and Dinwiddie is a very promising prospect but I was hoping for someone more ready for Prime Time... prove me wrong Coach Dinwiddie! I guess our homecoming for Osh can wait another couple of seasons.
  20. A small add, since I haven't seen it mentioned, apologies if it has already: Much has been made of Lapolice's tactic of "going against tendency" in the GC which was employed to a very positive effect. I'm not sure anyone went into what might have been if it didn't work. There would have been howls over him going with an approach that wasn't proven and was not what brung ya to the dance. It would have 100% been Lapo's chesnuts in the fire if it had not been successful. I've seen praise for his strategic elan, but none for his guts. Ballsy.

    What can I tell ya? A broken clock is right twice a day...
  22. bluto replied to Zontar's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    No... but that timeline puts it in the Goltz/Hall/Boltus era... so I'd guess it was a pretty dire prophecy. (also we played you back to back that year when you cam to T.O. and swept you so I likely was either rubbing that in or trying to salve your wounded feelings)
  23. Remember that he sat under Ricky Ray's learning tree for 2 seasons. Even keeled was the order of the day.

    Thanks Brother, back at you. ...and you don't know that we can't...
