Whoa! I have just now actually gone back and read what it is I wrote and I clearly owe this board an apology. I was trying to finish up several things towards the end of my lunch break, had a few thoughts in my head both on this matter and on work stuff, and an intern came into my office. I quickly finished my thought and pushed "post" without actually proofreading what I had typed.
I have only briefly met the Vaniers, and I can promise you they don't remember me from Adam. My source, however, is close to Mrs. Jack Vanier and I had my source ask her, as I was curious, if there was any truth to the BV rumors and such (without getting into much detail). The answer was a resounding "no".
Now, this is neither here nor there as all we're doing in this thread is supposed to be speculating on a future coach. However, I cannot express how sorry I am to further what I know has to be an incredibly irritating rumor for the Vanier family. I realize this is just a football message board but when you start making remarks, for or against, people/friends/family, things can become personal very quickly. If you have ever written a paper or speech, and then gone back through and wondered "What was I thinking here?" as you came across a sentence or two that made no sense at all, then maybe you can sympathize with me. If not, then please try and understand that what I typed, and the words that were going through my head as I typed and started a separate conversation in my office, did not actually align and I failed to recognize the mental error prior to posting. I tend to not take message boards too seriously, but I do hope that any friends or family of the Vanier's on here please accept my sincere apology for this egregious error on my part.
I have since edited my original post and ask that anyone who quoted me to please do the same as I neither intended, nor stand by any of the previous remarks that I made in regards to the Vanier family.
