I loved Dave Richie for his crusty bluntness but as he aged, he fell into the trap of identifying with his older players probably due to discomfort with his own aging. Given time, he might have worked through it, but the axe fell.

And its all gooder Inglish.

But the "e" is silent.

I do think O'Shea deserves a new contract but for two years more- one good year out of three does not inspire confidence, and the gaffes of the past two years are still too fresh in my memory.

Having lots of money didn't help Ray Kroc or Robin Williams.

Wonder what took them so long.

Probably during the pre-camp physicals.

I'm betting on the Riders grabbing him in the off-season. Actually, they will probably sign him today or tomorrow but announce it much later.

By the way- what is it with all the receivers in the Eastern Conference being badasses this year?

There have been some shocking upsets this year in the CFL, so don't think its a gimme. The Als have expelled Carter in a sort of team bowel movement, so that will be a great improvement right there and may inspire a victory.

Carter kvetched his way out of the NFL and is probably close to doing the same in the CFL. Giant talent, giant ego, minuscule common sense.

Sounds like the plan!

Like that, yes.

I am expecting Gurley to play and give us the threat that has been missing for so long.

Conversely, there is no video recording to prove that his butt was not down, either, so the default decision is that the ref who saw the play and called it made the correct call.

It was consolation prize.

Gaydosh looked to be the next Doug Brown but he has never even come close to that.

Whatever they get fined ought to come off their cap. That will help make the point.

Its like poker- you put your money on the table and you take your chances. You have to look at the big picture.

Since it seems that Richards is not going to contribute to the team as a tall possession receiver, it falls to Gurley.

Truth be told, Lions, Esks and the Bombers are so close despite differing strengths and weaknesses that you could throw a blanket over all three at the same time.

All in good fun, but Matt Nichols is going to have to really shell out to feed Stanley Bryant.

If anyone wants an eye-opener as to alternative approaches to drug usage, research how Switzerland and Portugal deal with things like that.

Even a blind squirrel will find the odd nut and its way too soon to anoint Jones as the stubblejumper messiah.

People do realize that now we have a Macho man and a Gurley man on our roster, right?
