A person who didn't get to live out his dreams as a professional athlete. I'm sure that this is the first time that sort of thing has ever happened...

If you want people who are prepared to think, people who are prepared to take risks, disagreements are going to happen, guaranteed. A team that does not have disagreements (sometimes even profound ones) means one of the following is the case: 1- A team full of "yes men". 2- A team where no one gives a flying fig. 3- A team that doesn't actually do anything. I don't see any of these things applying to the Bombers. If occasional disagreements impact on relationship, it says way more about the quality of the leader than anything else.

What you say is true, at least in theory, and I know my theory (I have a masters degree in leadership) but it is also narrow in viewpoint and not always that practical in the real world where things are more often run off competition, fear and envy ... continuous major disagreements amongst senior managers lead to same very dysfunctional things (especially striving), the opposite of organizational health and then they have to be repaired ... thats the difference between academics (and seminar boosts) and solving key organizational problems between very powerful senior managers

I have 20+ years experience in leadership, and people seem to think I'm pretty good at what I do (but, hey, what do they know). I stand by what I said. Good teams will sometimes have disagreements. Good leaders work through the issues and make the team better. When I look at the trio at the top of the Bombers org chart, I see three guys who are smart enough and secure enough that they can disagree without making it personal or without stepping all over each other.

June 12, 20178 yr comment_267842 I hope apodaca is PR bound. But maybe they have eyes one some one even better. I like frederick, but he is redundant with randle. With fogg, smalley, roc and mo coming back we arent exactly hard up. I could see frederick getting a call from another team.

O'Shea didn't mention that possibility in his interview today, it might come later but it's not on the agenda right now. None of the reporters seemed to think it was important to ask why Apodaca was cut. As for Frederick, sounds like he wasn't contributing to ST. Starting to pick up a buzz about Alexander.

I'm gonna lose all kinds of sleep that Michael Oshea hasn't used your diagnostics and superbly refined skill to become a leader. Please post more about leadership. Your explanations are enlightenment to the unwashed.

I havent gotten to watch it yet. That would make sense. This is not a team where you can dog it on STs. Kinda drives me nuts. Nearly every single player in the CFL could be a lifer in the NFL if they committed to playing hard and smart 100% of the time on teams.

June 13, 20178 yr comment_267859 Nobody knows about leadership better than I do. Ask anyone, they will all tell you that Cody J Thonpson *puts index finger up* is the best on leadership.
June 13, 20178 yr comment_267861 Im just glad this organization is at the level in which we can cut starters from last year because of the high level of completion instead of dumpster diving for other teams cuts. The good teams in this league have to make tough decisions on players and sometimes that means moving a long from a good football player.
