    BUT who cares.....i want Milanovich to win multiple cups in Toronto...but wouldnt want him to jump ship.
    Yep - coached in the USFL, but still a rare example of a CFL HC going straight (minus that USFL short stint) to an NFL HC job - and arrived at the Houston Oilers with Warren Moon.

    I loved those Oiler uniforms...did Hugh have the pleasure of coaching #34, the great Earl Campbell?

    I was extremely critical of releasing Boyd and of our OL personnel. I was wrong on both there as Kackert is a stud and the OL performed well in the playoffs and down the stretch in the regular season.

    Yeah - I'm guilty too of being mighty skeptical that Coach M would be a good one; proved a bunch of us wrong I guess; now time to prove that his rooke HC season was no fluke or that is was more on landing Ricky Ray or a smart DC like Jones.

    Arrrrrrrrrgooooos !!!

    Surely you can't deny the possibility of the Argos repeating or even three-peating as Cup champs?

    And you don't think winning a championship in his first three seasons as a head coach would attract any interest from down south?
    pinball said it. the only thing harder than winning a grey cup is repeating. trust me when i say that 2010 was no cakewalk.
    Grey cup 106. Newer and bluer meanies

    Piece of cake. To repeat in 2013, all we have to do is sign Adriano Belli for the last two games (to warm up, and be available for the playoffs). If nothing else, he could keep the field goal kickers and punters in shape, by chasing them round and round the field after a successful kick, trying to kiss them. But humour aside, Adriano is a spiritual leader on this team. It would be good to have him around, no matter what his role or capacity on this team. Even if he only serves the after-game lasagna, and makes sure the beer is cold.

    Ka' Pla !
