Just look at the above example, the broadcasters had to go several years in the past to compare Kackert to Josh Ranek. Like there have been 100 black RBs in the CFL since Ranek yet Kackert is like Ranek. Why? Do white men run differently with the ball through the line of scrimmage than black men? It's laughable if you just see it as it is. And as I said in the previous post, it goes the other way as well. Just listen for it and you will hear it. OJ may have said he's not a black player, he's just OJ, but no broadcaster ever saw it that way.
    Just for the record, although raising the subject is like pissing into the wind: there is, in fact, no such thing as "race". Scientifically, this meme is nonsense. Ethnicity, geography and the consequence of differing amounts of exposure to ultraviolet radiation over evolutionary time are real. There is no such thing as "race".

    Funny, I missed the part where we were going around deleting anti-Milanovich posts around here.

    No deleting, so the mods have done well from that point, but I don't think you can say the "anti-Milanovich" posts are well received around here.
    My post wasn't directed towards the mods.

    Really, although that may be true, some of us here get ridiculed when posting or asking legitimate questions?
    By those who think they know everything.

    This coming from someone that cried foul over the sarcastic Benevides comments.

    Seriously, what do you expect? Some people live and die with this team, and get tired of all the cheap shots thrown at the coach and some players whenever the lose a game.

    Clearly you either don't understand what the issue was or are just choosing to believe whatever you want to.

    Yeah - any criticism taken as "cheap shots" ? I don't get that attitude; I do get that some are real passionate fans who don't like to hear / read anything negative about the Argos = I'd suggest this type of forum is maybe not the right place for them to be at times.

    Milanovich doesn't have to lose a game, I've disliked him for years and the way he coaches. The Argos need a coach with a pulse, and balls.

    Oh this question again.
    No one right now, it's too late/not feasible, but his contract should not have been renewed and he should have been replaced prior to 2016, when there was a chance to replace him.

    And who would you have replaced him with at that point?

    Yes, but if you'll recall that Austin did eventually allow Steinauer to interview for the Edmonton job. (Most likely told to do so by either Mitchell or Young)
    Popp didn't allow Thorpe, and we all know how that went down.
