OT: 2015-2016 Winnipeg Blue Bombers/CFL Off-Season

[Bob E]

Though I'm sure LaPo would be able to identify a blitz stunt by the opposition and counter it far better than Bellefuille.

 

[sipowicz]

Best move by O'Shea since he was hired, got a good OC and his future replacement in one hire!

 

[Guardian17]

I hope this gets the team moving forward in a positive direction.

 

[roccerfeller]

last time LaPo was OC he was solid (with Sask i believe)

I'm cool with this move. Better than MB for sure

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Anyone is better than Bellefeuille.

Have never been a huge fan of LaPo's playcalling, especially his overreliance on deep throws.

 

[Ducky10]

Good news, now we have LaPo and PoMo.

I wonder if Tina still has the Twitter account?

Over under on Tina LaPo putting her foot in her mouth and throwing MOS under the bus on social media?

I'll say 4 games, and I'll take the under.

Now, if only team could get out of SloMo, we'd be golden.

 

[Ducky10]

Now, if only team could get out of SloMo, we'd be golden.

Which one?

I'm assuming both.

 

[Derfel*]

Which one?

I'm assuming both.

Yeah, both for sure.


I'm excited to see LaPolice back in Winnipeg. I thought he got a raw deal being let go like that.

 

[nobody important]

I'm not saying this will turn out to be a bad hiring. I like LaPo. I have some fond memories of his time in the league. Like in this video, 50 seconds in.

This was a special CFL moment that I remember and cherish deeply. Not many other moments in the CFL have made me this happy.... especially when it happens twice.

 

[rkp]

They positioned it as LaPo lost the room. Didn't crack the whip, guys got away with whatever they wanted. Mack thought hard nose Tim Burke would be different and command the boys attention and respect. That didnt go well either.

Cant see how it will be any different than the first time when he was head coach....big mistake on the BB's part IMO, but we will see......surely there must have been some other candidates out there who are worthy of being looked at?!

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

He just wants his free coffee that you get with your third firing from the Blue Bombers.

 

[bustamente]

Coaches can turn it around and become better coaches Belichick and Carroll are prime examples of coaches who were terrible on there first go around as HC in the NFL. Not saying that LaPo is HC material but there no reason to not think that as a OC he has learn a few things in the past few years.

 

[WaveRaven]

I like the hire.... Love the 13th man video bombers should loop it on the scoreboard when were down by 20

I was at a Grey Cup party in Sakatchewan at that time (through work), surrounded by Roughriders fans and was the only one cheering for Montreal...what a great time that was.

You are either a very brave or a very large man. I've seen less harrowing situations on Homeland and 24.

It was a work related party so I guess I was protected by the company's policy against homicide. (at least I think there was that policy )

What I would have given to see all of that misery.

it was indeed glorious

Haha! 10/10
