Joe Mack Hired as Winnipeg GM

Word from the Winnipeg Free Press that Joe Mack has been hired as the Winnipeg GM. Or more accurately the "vice-president of football operations." Everybody's a vice-president these days. Call me crazy, but hiring a general manager who last worked in the CFL in 1987 seems to be something that might not work out so hot, although he will probably be better than Adam Rita.

Another article from the Press about Greg Marshall, that makes the point that at some point the Cats might want to get a commitment from Marshall so they could get on with their own search for a new defensive coordinator. One interesting fact from the article is that it seems Marshall may live in Burlington (or was just in Burlington when the reported called, enjoying the awesomeness of the Boring City). Shades of Theresa Cascioli there. Tigercatatonia thinks that both the Mayor of Hamilton and the defensive coordinator of the Ticats should live in Hamilton, preferably within stumbling distance of the Prince Edward Tavern.
