Over and Out




















3 Wins and 15 Losses


The 2009 season ended with a resounding thud, and the players bailed out of town faster than the Toronto Maple Leafs in April.



If the team wasn't up for sale, which is, Adam Rita, and Bart Andrus would and should be shown the door.



Imagine that 5 games into the season, I was laughing at Hamilton ( for taking Arland Bruce III )


and the Blue Bombers who had zipped through 3 QB's in 4 weeks, and were onto Michael Bishop. Hahahahaha, c'mon, Michael Bishop, please. We traded him away because we had Kerry Joseph.

Cut to the end of the season, Ti Cats make the playoffs, Bishop almost gets the Bombers there too and we did not win a game after the CNE finished for their 2 week run.



We stink, and we need to find the following.

1. A new ownership group, one that does not have one foot in exploring NHL franchises in Phoenix, or needs bail outs from the BC owner.

2. A new GM, and scouting staff, we have yet to produce in almost 7 years enough quality receiving talent, while watching BC, Edmonton, Saskatchewan, Montreal , Hamilton all find great receivers.

3. Stop the Andrus experiemnt, this work in progress, this idea that we are getting better every week, I mean rally, I agree with TSN reporter Dave Randorf, " What are we painting the Sicstine Chapel here ".....

4. A Canadian coaching staff that knows the Canadian game ( copying the Alouettes and Tressman as their blueprint was fine in theory, but the Al's had talent to start with, and Tressman made little change if any )

5. If the Pinball does not run for mayor, we need his influence back on the team. I think he botched the Kerry Joseph/ Mike Bishop thing, but largely he has a positive impact on the team.
We can use him more than just as a figurehead.
