    Seems like a bad move to sign the defensive coordinator from the team that had the worst defence in the league.

      I was kind of thinking the same thing. The amount of times he had a look of panic on his face on the sidelines just didn't instill confidence.

        Well, I gotta admit that I was wrong about Reinbold fitting in with the Als. It would seem that the only viability he may have left in this league is as a positional coach.

        Too bad, I always enjoyed the colour he brought with him.
        Before you insult a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you insult him, you'll be a mile away, and have his shoes.

          its nice to admit your wrong sometimes.. isnt it..

          joking aside, i never thought reinbold was a great coach, great guy and personality, bur even from his talks here in the uk.. he never seemed like a great coach.

            I don't think I've had the problem admitting when I've been wrong on something that some here have...

            ...it just doesn't happen very often.

                Maybe he and Mike Kelly can go hang out together somewhere...bring even more color to those around them...

                        I don't think you were wrong by any means. It was a worthy experiment. Yes that defence gave us fits and the argos gained substantial yardage in the east final but we still finished first and were the argos' toughest opponent on their road to the cup.

                        I'm glad Thorpe is back with us. Nice to see a familiar face. Popp understands that a Jones-type defence is the way to go in the east division so Thorpe will likely use a copycat formula.

                        Your mother loves you dear. Hope you visit the south pole soon.

                            als have also named their new OC. Pat Meyer their O-line coach has been promoted. If AC retires he could be QB coach.
