    I fault Milo for thelousy offense system and lack of team motivation but I like that nothing is happening, kind of shows that any moves may be well thought out and not knee jerk reactions. In this case dont fire Miko unless you have soneone better lined up. Who knows with a lot less injuries his system might just work. The offense will be a lot better with a decent left tackle and a RB that can break some long runs a real threat to counter the pass rush on our stay at hone system. The D has enough talent if they can stay healthy. Overall team motivation needs a boost.

    My initial reaction may have gone too far, so I apologize too. It's forgotten on my part.

    Even the Argos media arm don't seem to know which direction the Argos are going.

    Pretty sure they're as close to the team as we all are. From what I know, I think the team disassociated itself from the Admirals. Essentially, it's just a fan blog.

    Yeah, I think any formal relationship between the Admirals and the team lasted only 1-2 seasons.

    which is a shame as I liked the idea of the argos admirals. They should have kept them and all their social media staff after copeland took over... As the crew they have now is kinda lame and the presence is almost non existent compared to before...

    This thread should also add Copeland to the mix.
    He is a disaster.

    I agree. To put it mildly Michael Copeland has been unimpressive, and doesn't seem to have a clue as to what he's doing.

    Edit: Don't know if Copeland should be fired as of right now, but the things that have occurred under his watch are concerning IMO.

    He was and is not ready for this role or level of responsibility. He has proven it over the past year with poor attendance at games including not being able to sell out the season opener to the Grey Cup. Evaluating the organizational structure and making the move much too late. Too many excuses and zero results. So much hype about tail gating and nothing else. Now it is rumoured that we are going after an NFL guy for the President of Football Operations. That is a great idea... NFL guys from player, coaches to executives always work out well in the CFL. I am sure we all can name dozens. When will these guys ever learn.

    The Argos and this city should always have a competitive team with the stadium full especially this one. So many missed opportunities.
    CFL alive and well all others can go to Hell!

    Is the Argo office understaffed? I'm beginning to wonder this myself.

    Copeland might be the victim of the Peter Principle.

    LOL, that's two current, independent, "Peter Principle" posts.

    I received an Argos communication today that referred to the new hire as football leader? Doesn't seem to preclude President and doesn't refer to GM only?

    "We are currently in the process of finding the Argos' next football leader to help lead us forward. We look forward to sharing news on that front with you as soon as we can."
