Kicked out of the den

From the Hamilton Tiger Cat Website comes word of yet another coaching change, two actually in Hamilton.

Not a surprising development for a team that has given up 114 points in three games and scored none offensively of their own..

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced today that offensive coordinator Joe Paopao and offensive line coach Kani Kauahi have been relieved of their duties with the team.

Paopao and Kauahi joined the Cats from Ottawa this year, taking over the operation of the Cats juiced up with high profile signings on the offence featuring Josh Ranek, Corey Holmes, Jason Maas and Terry Vaughn, an offence that just hasn't clicked since they were assembled at training camp.

With all their acquisitions in the off season most figured that the Cats were going to not only challenge Montreal for first place, but could book ahead those necessary hotel rooms for Grey Cup week in Winnipeg.

It to say the least, doesn't appear that they'll need to worry about frost bite on the flat lands this year.

With two key games against arch rival Toronto in the next two weeks, something had to be done, though you have to wonder if its not already too late for the Cats and their fans this year.
