August 3, 20159 yr comment_139061 Word in Riderville is one of the players will pour a bottle of liquid ex lax into Chamblin's pre-game coffee prior to next game, as his parting gift. Well, that's one way to get Chamblin to "go". Or run him out of town....
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139096 @LeeJonesCTV: Riders GM Brendan Taman "I have not asked for permission to fire Chamblin. He is our coach going forward" #Riders @HomeOfTheFans: Taman says that he and the board support Corey Chamblin going forward. He's going on with business as usual. #riders #cfl @HomeOfTheFans: Taman says he fully expects Chamblin to be here for the year. #riders #cfl

Lawless did say that if the BOD didn't approve Taman firing Chamblin now, it means a full housecleaning will take place at the end of the season, meaning both Chamblin and Taman are gone.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139105 Lawless says he stands behind his report into the inner thoughts and desires of Brendan Taman, even though Taman himself says the opposite himself. Too bad he can't stand in front of his report so no one can see it anymore.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139106 @garylawless: I respect what Brendan Taman has said today. That being said, I stand behind my report. 100 per cent.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139111 To be fair and I'm not a lawless fan but did ppl expect Taman to come out and say Chamblin is done. The riders bye week is soon. Let's see what happens then. I have a feeling gary may be right in the long run.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139116 fwiw, chamblin shouldn't lose his job because of the injury bug. No he should lose it because of the piss poor defence he's running. The Riders had 0 wins and the #1 offense heading into last week.

August 3, 20159 yr comment_139123 Lol what do you expect Taman to say? I asked for permission to fire Chamblin but the board said no so I guess he stays? Come on. Pretty obvious what's going on here... Taman and Chamblin are both gone after the season.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139124 To be fair and I'm not a lawless fan but did ppl expect Taman to come out and say Chamblin is done. The riders bye week is soon. Let's see what happens then. I have a feeling gary may be right in the long run. This thing is, if Gary was 100% wrong, there wouldn't have been any meetings or pressers. Most likely scenario, Taman asked permission to fire Chamblin, BOD said no, Taman addresses media and says Chamblin is there for the year,. For the Year is the key wording.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139130 Wonder what they both make. Taman and CC have contracts through 2017. That has to be a good chunk of change. I know the Riders have cash but still.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139132 Wonder what they both make. Taman and CC have contracts through 2017. That has to be a good chunk of change. I know the Riders have cash but still.Well, Bombers pay their GM and HC near the bottom of the CFL pay scale, but I believe Walters makes about $250k per year and O'Shea is around $200k per year.So the combo of Taman/Chamblin will cost a minimum of $500k per year.
August 3, 20159 yr comment_139134 I think we see a 'defensive consultant' hired by labour day - maybe Benevides?
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139156 Another loss & things will be in flux again. Isn't what's happening with the Riders remind you of what went on here in 2013? Just a total **** show. And back then, I remember fans here & everywhere else were pointing to the Riders as the model publicly owned franchise & how we needed to model the Bomber organization after them.
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139161 I would much rather watch the 2015 Roughriders than the 2013 Bombers.
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139163 Feels to me like they've written off this season and would rather just do a wholesale change in the off season...
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139178 I would much rather watch the 2015 Roughriders than the 2013 Bombers.Hey guess what? You will be,lucky you
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139179 I would much rather watch the 2015 Roughriders than the 2013 Bombers. Me too. It's fun to watch the Riders lose.
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139205 Chamblin on the post game show had already said the grey cup is already lost
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139234 Chamblin on the post game show had already said the grey cup is already lost Now he should come clean and tell them there next 12 games are lost as well.
August 4, 20159 yr comment_139236 Chamblin on the post game show had already said the grey cup is already lost Now he should come clean and tell them there next 12 games are lost as well. I guess they gotta go 12-0 now to meet Taman's prediction... it's not over yet!
