Sat, July 31 04 "The Post of the week from Total-CFL Discussion as the legend Total-CFLers knew a Firing was on it's way! "Wow what a game!" Scotty Dog "John Jenkins has been fired!" Ravi " Myk Aussie

From Total-CFL Discussion ScottyDog Thu Jul 29 '04 7:19pm "Stampers/Renegades absolute fight to the Finish !!!!!!!!!!!! No need to hang any heads after this game, this game could have gone either way, Very exciting football, then again,"AIN'T THAT WHAT THE CFL IS ALL ABOUT"

Saskfan in Winnipeg Thu Jul 29 '04 7:25pm "No need to hang any heads after this game, this game could have gone either way. On the contrary, there are plenty of reasons to hang their heads, even the team that won. I've never seen such stupidity on both sides of the football. I'm sure Dunigan is tearing his team some new orifices and PaoPao is thanking his lucky stars."

ScottyDog Thu Jul 29 '04 7:29pm "Well you do have a good point there, I was talking about the team having a loss. Lots a penalties, costly penalties."

Sugarfoot In Mouth Disease Thu Jul 29 '04 7:55pm "Outside of the finish, that was a sloppy, poor exhibition of football.  The only good outcome is that the home fans got their money's worth, so hopefully that helps Ottawa's attendance 'problem'.

While there were a few good takeaways from Calgary's perspective (Jones fared well, good d-line and linebacker play, and I cashed in for $10), the way that Calgary lost (TD on 3rd and 29???  WTF???), leaves a very, very, sour taste in my mouth.

It will be interesting to see how Calgary responds next week.  They're clearly a fragile team, and they can either view this as a 'nowhere to go but up' situation, or fall apart entirely."

Jerry Nuffy Fri Jul 30 '04 8:00am "Please tell me how Dunigan can be so stupid. To go into a game with a rookie quarterback and no running back is not acceptable. Any team in this league with 57 seconds left would run the ball and win the game. Matt Dunigan should resign or be fired. Crandell can not be his scapegoat any more. Although Jones looked okay, he will not win this year. The Stamps will be lucky to win another game this year. How we got rid of Buono and Barker and hire this baboon is beyond me. Ottawa's running game was great as was Warren in the BC game. John Jenkins should be relieved of his duties as offensive co-ordinator and be replaced with anybody who knows what a running back looks like. I was so happy to see Ottawa win and I hope this team under this regime never wins another game this season. Obviously the loyal fans will suffer again. When Dunigan and Jenkins are led out of town, lets hope Rooke is on the same plane."

I had to join in on this!! Myk AussieCDN Fri Jul 30 '04 8:29am "Yeh Nuffy but a good marketing ploy by Stamps to get Tom Jones playing for them seeing crowds are down. The alcoholic women in Calgary will here about Tom Jones on the radio and go to the games now to watch him play & sing in the Stamps Sunny Stadium! So more girlies at the footy for ya Nuffy."

Sugarfoot In Mouth Disease Fri Jul 30 '04 9:51am "While I've never been a huge Jenkins fan, last night really sealed the deal for me with this guy.  I would have said that that was singlehandly the stupidest coaching decision I had seen in my life, if I hadn't seen Paopao fail to accept that no-yards penalty 2 minutes earlier.

When a team can't a) convert from inside the 5, b) burn 55 seconds off the clock, and c) avoid putting the QB in the position of having to use a higher risk play with the game on the line, then something is truly amiss.  And this is under ideal weather conditions; I shudder to think what this offense will look like in late October.

Here's where Dunigan earns his pay:  Either he has the brass to do something about the offense (beyond the standard 'looking at tape, promise to get better, by-the-way, did anybody see where my deckchair got shuffled to? rhetoric), andd specifically Jenkins, or his own head should be in the noose.  Granted, Coach Dunigan is only playing the cards that he's been dealt, but he was dealt many of them by GM Dunigan.

As for Rooke?  He's a huge liability, IMO.  #1, he's too afraid of the optics of the situation to even consider the fact that there is a former offensive coordinator in Calgary with a fist full of Grey Cup rings that would probably kill to help this team out.  Rooke would ("Oh I better edit that bit...."Myk) himself before he would consider making that call. BTW, Ronnie, if you are considering ("Oh I better edit that bit as well...."Myk) yourself, I'm here to help.  

Sadly, though, All this hand-wringing might be pointless.  I'm not sure that Calgary has the horses to accommodate a change in offensive strategy, even if they wanted to.  To be fair, though, Victor Ike hasn't touched the ball enough for me to really comment on the guy.  I do know that Saladin McCullough is rotting away on Saskatchewan's practice roster, and Kelvin Anderson is still only 7 months removed from a 1000 yard rushing season.  It ain't like there isn't anybody out there if you wanted.  

BTW, I disagree with part of your post.  I don't have a problem with the Jones decision- he didn't play all that badly, all things considered, and demonstrated that he has an upside, IMO.  Other than carrying the ball like a loaf of bread on that last turnover, there's no disappointment from me there."

cfl fan from California Fri Jul 30 '04 10:13am "I agree with your post, if someone was to ask 100 football coaches what play they would have used in that situation, I would guess 95 of them would have said run the ball.  One has to wonder why Matt has so much faith in Jenkins.  Jenkins has to go."

True-42 Fri Jul 30 '04 10:31am "While it was an exciting final five minutes or so (heck, even the 4th quarter), it was brutal until then. I wouldn't like to see Matt lose his job, and I think the Stampeders will be able to weather through the Quarterback stuff and have a decent season. But Jenkins has to go. And I also concur with Sugarfoot's comments about Rooke."

Jerry Nuffy Fri Jul 30 '04 2:05pm "On radio this afternoon, Dunigan said he made the call not Jenkins. I smell a cover up."

And today Jenkins was Fired." Myk Aussie

Banjo Pickin' Troy Westwood moved up to sixth in CFL history with his 700th FG attempt in Thursdays blowout loss to B.C in Winnipeg. The following is the list of all-time top 10 CFL FG Kicking attempts. Just ot save your calculators!: 

1) Lui Passaglia (Myk & I have interviewed Lui in his office at B.C Place before. A great guy & I have in my CFL gear a number #5 Lui B.C, black jersey.) 1,203 FG attempts 

2) Paul Osbaldiston, 927 
3) Mark McLoughlin, 897 
4) Dave Cutler, 790 
5) Dave Ridgeway, 736 
6) Troy Westwood, 703 
7) Terry BAKER, 630 
8) *Bernie Ruoff, 595 
9) Trevor Kennerd, 592 
10) Sean Fleming, 584 

* In 1988, Bernie Ruoff also kicked for one season for New England in the Arena Football League. His career Pro Total is: 631 attempts, which would place him ahead of Nova Scotia's Terry Baker, if the CFL recognized these stats. Just a historical footnote from your friendly neighborhood sports reporting instigator!" Moose

Fri, July 16 04 "Oh no David De La Perralle cut from the Ottawa Renegades! David on Renegades Total-CFLwebTV!

From Arash at Renegades media. 

OTTAWA – The Ottawa Renegades released offensive tackle David De La Perralle Thursday, and also announced that 2003 draft pick Patrick Kabongo has reported to the team.

De La Perralle, who was inactive through the first four games of the regular season, has had an injury-riddled CFL career since being drafted by Toronto in 1999. The Montreal native got banged up in the first game of 2000 and did not play for all of 2000 and 2001. He appeared in four games last season, before missing the last 11 games due to injury as well.

“We want to thank David for his contributions to our club over the past three years,” said Renegades General Manager Eric Tillman. “We fully expect that he will be playing again in the Canadian Football League in the very near future.”

I met David at Gabriel Morency's RoadRage in Montreal in Jan and then again at Super Bowl week. Seems injuries caught up with the big fella. Here's David the only CFLer at the Global Jnr's in Houston helping the young future CFLers. Click here

Wed, July 14 04 "We talked lots of CFL on Detroit Lions radio yesterday! Who was the best holder in CFL history? Definitely not me mate Nuffy!

From Total-CFL Discussion. A different type of topic this week was a rippa.

"Who was the best holder in CFL history" Moose

"Best holder in history?!?!?! Talk about an episode talking about nothing. That of course is with no disrespect to players handling that responsibility as it is an important one. Simply I doubt many of us could name more than 4 current holders much less many "greats". All I know is usually that job goes to either a backup QB or the punter if a team employs both a punter and placekicker. 

Once and a while it might fall to another player. These days it is almost unheard of to have the starting QB do it. That's why your selection of Dickenson seems odd. I'm sure he doesn't hold for BC so it must've been for something he did in Calgary. Jason Crumb has done some holding for BC in recent years and seems to me either Wynn or Printers did some last year. 

Eskinator mentioned Wilkie. The only guy I'm aware of who had holding responsibilities for a good chunk of his career is Glen "Pup" Suitor who was Ridgway's trusted holder for almost all of the years the two played together. Darren Flutie was another positional player who did it a few times in his career as well. That's about the extent of my knowledge of who has handled the job over the years." Hambone

"...most famous Lion's holder was back-up QB Peter Ohler ... on a botched FG in the 64 Cup ... he scrambled and passed to TE Jim Carphin for a TD" 3rd Down

"Kevin Eiben has done an outstanding job holding for Noel Prefontaine for the last few years." Ravi

"Definitly not Nuffy! He doesn't even get to "hold" a can of beer at Stamps games! It's gone down his gut in seconds and back to the beer booth I have to go!" Myk Aussie
