November 24, 20159 yr comment_170787 Let's just remember the last time Lapo called plays here, he was calling plays for a guy who didn't have an arm that could spin it more than 35 yards.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170788 I'm fully on board with a LaPolice hiring. He did a good job in Sask as their OC, which was the last time he had a quality qb to work with, unless you count two games of healthy Buck Pierce at the start of 2010. Is there a way to hear an old H & L? I'd like to hear the comments for myself.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170790 We have fired Lapolice twice already for not being good enough let's not go for the hat trick.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170793 We have fired Lapolice twice already for not being good enough let's not go for the hat trick. We got worse each time we fired him. That points a finger at the players, not him.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170803 .....I think with the asst. coach title attached to the o.c. job, Lapo might be interested...and lord knows Mike O can use all the help he can get...Lapolice would be a good hire in that circumstance.

November 24, 20159 yr comment_170806 Sucks for us. We always miss the boat. Typical...Murphy could crash and burn just as easily as he succeeds and makes the Riders a contender again. And quite frankly are the Riders that bad? Next year they'll have Durant back which was probably 90% of their problem this year. But again certain people here will applaud whatever change another team makes but will **** on whatever the Bombers do. There's a saying about a "leopard never changes its spots". Uhhh....did you not watch any of their games? That defense was a disgrace to professional football everywhere. I've seen soccer players tackle better.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170807 Let's just remember the last time Lapo called plays here, he was calling plays for a guy who didn't have an arm that could spin it more than 35 yards. Joey Elliott? He had a decent arm. Wasn't Lapolice the guy who would kick field goals inside the 10 all of the time? Same guy who would call a screen pass on 2nd and long?

Joey Elliott? He had a decent arm. Wasn't Lapolice the guy who would kick field goals inside the 10 all of the time? Same guy who would call a screen pass on 2nd and long? Yes, the same guy. But it was widely reported that Elliot liked to change things up on the fly....which didn't work out. I'd be willing to see what he could do with Willy....god damn it...I'm such a ****** homer sometimes. As much as I didn't want Lapo, I'll still be excited for this....ugh
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170813 PLAP eh? Not really surprised and not impressed. Not looking forward to vanilla offences and playing not to lose. Is the 3rd time really the charm? I wonder if he keeps some or all of the offensive coaches for continuity? That would certainly be easier and cheaper assuming they have already have contracts for next year. Another boring hire of a failed coach.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170815 Can't say this news is terribly exciting... I seem to feel apathetic towards anything Bomber news these days... Every time I get optimistic about something, the Bombers let me down, as usual... I may start to join the "nothing they do is right" crowd.... I hope it doesn't come to that...
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170817 Lawless is usually right about this stuff so I've got my fingers crossed that this is just him speculating rather than something that's already set & just hasn't been announced yet.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170821 Well this is ho-hum news. He's better then MB, but not by much. I think he got a bum wrap as HC when he was here, but I'd still rather see someone who's a few steps above MB at OC who calls both a good air and ground attack.

November 24, 20159 yr comment_170825 LaPo was responsible for bringing in Crowton, who led to Marcel, who led to LaPo....some merry-go-rounds make people puke.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170829 LaPo was responsible for bringing in Crowton, who led to Marcel, who led to LaPo....some merry-go-rounds make people puke. I believe it was Mack who is responsible for bringing Crowton here.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170831 Lapo could be a perfect blend of old school with new age concepts. Having sit back and watch the league for the last few seasons, im sure hes figured out a lot of ways to beat the current defenses. He is also senior enough that Oshea can lean on him if need be for support. Id not hate this hire but I would probably have preferred someone new to the organization coach wise like Brady,Maas or even a Khari
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170834 Meh, Once Lapo starts kickin ass with our players you guys will come around... no sense in trying to talk you into it... your all as stubborn as I am or more anyway.

November 24, 20159 yr comment_170837 I wonder if his time on TV has shaped his approach at all. I'm not excited about same old same old but for now I'm going to hope he's grown since we last saw him.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170839 LaPo was responsible for bringing in Crowton, who led to Marcel, who led to LaPo....some merry-go-rounds make people puke. I believe it was Mack who is responsible for bringing Crowton here. No it's well documented that it was Lapo who brought Crowton here. The only people who blamed it on Mack were the ones who would blame ISIS on Mack if they could find a tenuous thread to do it with.
November 24, 20159 yr comment_170841 I think you will see a different Lapolice offense when he gets back. He has been out of the coaching world for 3 years now. I am sure he just did not sit around and do nothing. If anything he has studied every offense in the league and has made changes to his philosophy and offensive attack. Need to watch the **** Vermille A Football Life he spent his time when he was off from football and in TV to study what every head coach around the league was doing and ask questions when he was there to observe before games. I would not be that upset if its him.
