Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Mike Kelly has been beaten up pretty badly in recent days. Of course, when you’re 3-7 and you’re rebuilding a franchise and you don’t spend a lot of your spare time genuflecting at the shrine of the humourless and ridiculously judgmental mainstream media, you can be quite easily beaten up.
So on Wednesday morning, during an interview with Tom, Joe and The Coach on 92-CITI-FM, Kelly responded to a question about the 17-year-old who had started the “Fire Mike Kelly” Facebook site.
“Facebook?” Kelly asked, “I thought that was a website for 14-year-old girls. I spend way too much time around football, I guess. Geez, I’m going to get in trouble again for saying that, aren’t I?”
Not here.
Thank you Mike. Quote of the Year.
