He's a really good coach and i don't see whats all hating bout and still has a job with us.. so what has he done he coach a team that missed the playoffs? Happens every year to at least 2 coachs last time i checked.. now that he's upstairs can you stop blaming him for things he didn't do..

    This should generate some interesting responses...

    To me it was never about what I accomplished on the football field, it was about the way I played the game.

      Rest easy Beware, this has been an ongoing thing and while there are a few very anti-DM posters (often with good reason) there's likely considerably more who are willing to discuss and criticize (which can be a good thing at times!). And heck there are some here who take little or no issue with DM.

      So chill-ax and don't let it frustrate you! Things get a lot different when the season starts... then we all realize how much we hate the Stamps and Riders more than anything else!

          Look. We can go round and round about this all the live long day. Let's keep it simple. I embody amazement. Can you dig on that? Good. Then meet me on the corner of rock and roll, and bring a flask of something that burns.

            But I'm not going to make the comment linking those two! And I hope nobody else does!

              You should have been here when he was still coaching. And I want to make it clear that I am not bashing DM.

                Yeah it's really only a couple of posters who still have a hate-on for the guy.

                To the rest of us you're preaching to the choir....

                  DM as our coach and GM (even though the grey cup year it wasn't his official title he was making the trades)

                  3rd in the West - got hot won the cup
                  LAST in the west
                  LAST in the west
                  LAST in the west

                  Total playoff games at home: less than 1

                  Your honor I have no more witnesses to call.

                      DM made some very questionable moves in his time as Head Coach. Yeah, he doesn't deserve all the blame that he gets sometimes, and he makes more good moves than we really give him credit for....but that in no way makes him a success. As Beerfish pointed out, 3 straight years of last in the West.

                      I think he was too young and inexperienced to handle as many jobs as he had. I think he'll be a better GM now than he has been the last few years...and I've actually liked a lot of the moves he has made as a GM the last few years. I've disagreed more with his coaching.

                      I will agree now that we are entering a new era in Eskimo Football. This is Richie Hall's team...no need to dwell on the past and get myself stressed out about it. We've made a lot of good moves, we've got a solid team and I have nothing but optimism heading into next season. It's just not worth it to get worked up. I'll hope for the best and give Hall a chance to build this team.

                          Actually, we probably blamed DM for not winning that game we tied a couple years ago.

                            Just don't tie too many.
