What exactly would Mike Oshea, who rarely IF EVER has seemed to come across as someone who isn't a straight shooter, benefit from lying, essentially? I consider Oshea to be a very up front and honest guy and he has yet to prove that otherwise.

I consider Oshea to be a very up front and honest guy and he has yet to prove that otherwise. If you think O'Shea is up-front and honest then I don't know what to tell you. You must be a very trusting individual. He is the 100% opposite of that. Maybe on a personal level he is up-front and honest, I would believe that. But in his dealings with the media? Not even close.

Sure, there requires some reading between the lines but I don't think hes often lying to the media or fans, nope.
August 15, 20177 yr comment_283715 Quote Mike O'Shea is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life. ... Noeller.
August 15, 20177 yr comment_283718 Is MOS changing? Answer - No! He left Nicholls in against Hamilton with 5 minutes to go and the game in the bag. That was a head scratcher. The guy is loyal to his Q.B. to a fault. (i.e. see Drew Willy lol).

Oh I ain't saying MOS is always truthful with the media, but I will tell you this, I'll believe he's telling the truth here and that Lawless is doing what he often does and is passing speculation off as fact. If Lawless says things like "hearing this" or "there is a belief around the CFL" or anything along those lines I'll believe that he has a source on that. He's not totally full of ****, but he does like to pretend that he knows more than he does and apparently people like you just eat it up.
August 15, 20177 yr comment_283726 O'Shea did address that very issue. He said that the outcome of a game is never guaranteed, as we well know, and he questions the benefit of having Davis coming in just to kill the clock, (last game example) They would undoubtedly be handing off the ball. All the QBs spend time running the same plays for the situations they will be up against to get the practice and to see what options each QB sees and takes. It's all captured on film, and discussed further in meetings. O'Shea says they have complete confidence in Davis, for example, and do not see the benefit of game time just filling in to hand off footballs.
August 15, 20177 yr comment_283732 Saw this, confirming O'Shea is still a tough son of a ***** and all around decent dude.

I'm unsure of where Lawless is coming from on this one. I saw the tweets and immediately wondered if this was his opinion or whether he had heard it from a source. I'm still not sure. I don't necessarily believe he is correct, I just don't think MOS' denial is worth much. That's all.

They mentioned this to him on 1290 this afternoon and he says "To be honest I just wanted to get on the plane and those were the last guys we were waiting for." That I believe!

August 16, 20177 yr comment_283873 I don't ever remember Oshea lying to the media. Is he always completely frank? Of course not. If he were, he would be someone that no player would want to play for and his team would have baled on him during the tough times.

August 17, 20177 yr comment_284022 There's something about O'Shea not liking people with excess baggage, he just helps them out...

August 17, 20177 yr comment_284202 I don't believe a word of it, the front four are doing all the work, if they continue to get pressure the rest of the defence just looks better.
