Buchko, Mack Afraid To Answer The Bell?
it doesn't imply that at all. and even if it did (it doesn't) that doesn't excuse Mack from ducking every bit of adversity HIS team encounters (and there has been plenty of it... and i can't recall him owning up even once).

Ottawa Will Have A Better Qb Than Us
you guys have seen a coach or manager get fired and a replacement named within a day or two during a season before, right? do you reckon that the new guy wasn't contacted until the former coach/manager was canned? you are aware that organizations recruit their next guy ahead of firing a current one, right?

Berry may be an OC or HC soon... he may not want to leave where he is.

i'd rather have Burris/Lefevour or a duo of Reilly/Nichols going forward than Goltz/Hall.

it is a strategy that has worked very well for some teams.

or alternatively... you aren't understanding that you can hire your man on the sly (either officially or not) and announce him later... but in the meantime you pursue your best interests under his arms-length supervision. but you're right... perhaps playing by the rules and complaining that you can't hire anybody and creating excuses for why you can't succeed while everyone else can is the way to go.

Ottawa Will Have A Better Qb Than Us
i believe that if Ottawa drafts a QB from a team, that team will be able to protect an additional 2 imports and non-imports. so in some ways... a team with lots of assets to protect would actually benefit from exposing a QB to them... provided of course that they were secure at QB otherwise.

To me, this is where a GM of a team that needs to get better at QB should have someone out there scouting the heck out of all of the Tate, Nicholls, Willys, Collaros, Harris, Portis, types and any other backup with promise. I've got nothing against Goltz, but imo, you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket unless you know that basket is of GC quality. Desjardins will draft a QB. They likely won't draft 2 as that would allow 2 teams to protect extra players... but drafting 1 only takes a couple of players (two addtional imports and non-imports) from just that 1 team off of the board. The other Redblacks QBs will likely come via free agency. This is also why waiting until the end of the season to fire a GM in this of all years could be a grave error. This is a rare opportunity to have teams that do not want to surrender an asset for nothing trade away a prized asset. (as well as having the man in place now who can secure the team's NI future by extending Muamba and JE).

because he is Mack's superior. and if Mack gets canned... Garth will be the guy to pink-slip him. obvs.- Random Video Thread

i) i do find that difficult to believe... ii) way to like your own post.- Opposing Qb Totals The Last 3 Games...
i haven't forgotten them: we were 12-16 with him... your point?- Opposing Qb Totals The Last 3 Games...
nahhhh... haven't you heard? the only thing this team lacks is a good QB.- Good To Be Back!
you could suggest it... but it won't fly. Rich and Mike have done their level best to take the high-road. (and you just know that this level of discussion about MBB wouldn't be tolerated over there).- Good To Be Back!
when would you do that? when you come to the Argos/Stumps game? Rogers Centre security won't mind you killing off an Argo fan... as long as you do it quietly without standing up.- Good To Be Back!
srsly? maybe he's just working for MBB undercover...- Good To Be Back!
bolded part 1: for some posters here who know better, that comment will likely have made them chuckle. funny stories there. bolded part 2: nailed it. it was always about the community... not the site. and most of the posters who defined that site's community are here (many of them exclusively).- Ticats @ Riders

oh. well Marcel Desjardins would have absolutely no reason whatsoever to employ subterfuge and misdirection so i guess that matter is closed...- So What's The Problem?
good thread idea. get on that!- Stamps @ Bombers -- Gdt -- Game Day: We All Play
yet another reason to chop Mack prior to the end of the season. let you new guy (or interim) GM have a shot at getting a QB on the cheap that another team would otherwise lose for zilcho.- Stamps @ Bombers -- Gdt -- Game Day: We All Play

precisely why Mack didn't want Forde. regardless... if somehow JE or Muamba (or another key asset's) deals don't happen and Mack is chopped (either early or after the season) the blame game will reach heretofor unheard of volume on the forums. - Buchko, Mack Afraid To Answer The Bell?
