    Welcome aboard. And don't take anyone or anything here seriously.
  2. Who do you replace him with? Gary Crowton. Sweet Jesus, no. Now you've ruined my afternoon nap.

    On 1290 radio this afternoon, it was stated that Etchverry was a mentor to O'Shea and O'Shea said that he tried to get Etcheverry to change certain things about the defence but Etchverry was resistant to changes unless ordered to make them, and that was the point of separation between them. As far as a replacement, Claybrooks and others may be promising but it seems to me that an experienced DC like Richie Hall or Mike Benevides would be better choices- particularly Hall if he becomes available.
  4. The information has been provided for Bomber fans….how you choose to assess it is up to you. At least bearpants got it right. The "Ho hum" was in response to the pronouncements about drafting good NI's and beating the bushes for good Import players- pretty cliche. The blog does reinforce my sense of O'Shea's character and I still think he's the best man for the job, providing he learns as he goes.

    Its never a pleasant thing to wish for and have someone fired but this was necessary- like pulling a rotten tooth. I do feel for Etch- this was both obviously coming and it couldn't have been fun for Etch to wait by the phone knowing what it would bring. But its done and time to move on.
  6. Another merit badge for Walters. We need all the good starting NIs we can get.
  7. He'll be back. Not much of a market for skinny white guys in the NFL, even if they have famous names. He will be appreciated here, like Darren Flutie.
  8. It seems that the longer we wait, the higher the probablility that the usual suspects in the Bomber coaching ranks will return, and I see that as bad news. Yes, we have a nucleus of decent Canadian players, but the coaching is still suspect and the NIs overall are sub-par. O'Shea's epitaph might read "He stood by his men". (with due respects to Tammy Swinette).
  9. Hasn't this been beaten to death? We need at least two new starting O-linemen, a solid middle linebacker, an at least two dominating D-linemen, and we need at least two import receivers who scare the opposition d-backs.
  10. Come now. Don't drag religion into this.

    It's right after a " D-noch" and just before a " F-noch".
  12. And the Sisco Kid was on old oater hero along with his sidekick Pancho. But you need a Wayback machine for that reference.
  13. I can't imagine any scenario where Kuale isn't released this afternoon. Fixed that for you.
  14. Heck, can't anyone here be resentful and spite-filled about this?
  15. Not "the Sisco Kid"?

    Leading to the two-stage hangover: Stage one- you're afraid you're going to die Stage two- you're afraid you won't
  17. Oh, fecal matter.
  18. kinda keeps this fussing and cussing over a game in perspective, doesn't it? L'chaim!
  19. Welcome back!

    You love me the most...even though I hate you with every fiber of my being. You can't help it. Man love. If you guys want to get a room, I think most here would be willing to chip in for that to help you requite your affections. WOOHOO FREE HOTEL ROOM! Do we get to order room service too? And how about throwing in some spa time? Nope. You can rub each other the right way.

  22. Regardless of how Banks got along with Etcheverry and his methods, dumping on a whole team and city is very poor form. Banks should also consider the possibility that he was simply not good enough.
  23. Nah. Look how well it worked when they had two head coaches on the field at the same time a few years ago. Are you referring to the time they then fired said two head coaches, and replaced them with an interim head coach, who also happened to be the boss of the GM? I'm referring to when Greg Marshall was "head coach" and the previous head coach (insert name here), who was in some sort of administrative position was prowling the sidelines sympathizing with the players about how bad things were and how poorly they were being treated.
