2) Dan Dorazio. Mad Man or Genius? Or coated in more teflon than a DuPont factory?
3) Who is Wally Buono's biggest regret - the player cut, traded or not re-signed that has flourished with another CFL team? (for me, it's Jamall Johnson, hands down)
4) With an 0-4 record on a warm sunny Friday, would Hamilton have drawn 24,000+ at the old BC Place? How about 25,000+ against the Riders at 0-5? Again, back-to-back 8-10 seasons, a winless record, and finally a taste of summer. Would people have gone back indoors to watch bad football?
5) Avid tweeter, columnist, and radio host. Angus Reid....media savvy or overexposed?

1. Gore will be Fred Stamps in one or two years, as both Gore and Lulay mature. Over 600 yards in 6 games for Stamps, I see the same potential in Gore.
2. I thought he was a good coach, but now I am having my doubts. Even with 'good' to 'great' talent, we still can't produce 'great' results on the O-Line. As others have said, when the players change and the results are the same, it points to the coaches.
3. Look at how bad the defence was with Glatt at MLB, and that shows you how important a position it is. Losing Jamall to Hamilton, only to constantly change schemes to account for this hole, has to hurt for Wally.
4. You are bang on David, no way we'd get over 24,000 for a stuffy hot day at BC Place, with an 0-4 record. No way. But as Phil said, if it had rained then that number would have been 20,000 or less, outdoor is a double-edged sword.
5. A bit of both, but given that he is a Lions player, I hope he is as over-exposed as possible.
Rammer: The attendance was not announced at the Hamilton game (The calculator must have ran out of battery), but according to the Lions website it was 24,117. About as good as you'll get for an 0-4 football team.
