Precisely. The opinion that Fajardo should start was never invalid -- it just didn't need to be made in 25 out of 27 posts by a member of the forum.

Even though, Shirley had repeatedly beaten the same drum about Fajardo starting, perhaps a more diplomatic complaint, might have been made, in expressing the dissatisfaction of Shirley's many posts on the same issue. I thought the comment by Paulwood was much more diplomatically expressed, without being personally insulting. The comment "guys--I think we owe an apology to Shirley" was made tongue in cheek and was meant to be humorous in nature, hopefully lightening the discussion --if anyone took it as a personal criticism, I apologize.

I didn't get the impression that Montreal eased off on the first recalled TD but rather eased off because the play was a completed TD, however even if that were the case, one can't deny, the second recalled TD and the dropped end zone pass, demonstrated Fajardo's ability to put the ball in the end zone, something that Matthew had not come close to achieving. I don't think it is overstating the case, to say that Fajardo played far better than Matthews and if he had started the game it might have resulted in an Argo win.

Completely agree with the comments that the Argo defense shows some real potential. The loss of high quality players is often hard to overcome but the D tonight, showed we can be guardedly optimistic about the defense we have.

Can't just assume Shirley is a "she".
