Yup their chili was actually really good. Im not a coffee drinker and their donuts are s**t so that'll be it for me.

Chili and a bun was basically the only thing I ever ordered for lunch from there. One less reason to go to Tim's.

To borrow from Doug Brown, hopefully after tomorrow Ford and Ford can talk about how awesome it is to be on the same team AND their off season plans.

Big time. If call it flat out gross.

I get the pun but we’re talking about a guy who passed away tragically young, and by all accounts was a wonderful human being. Seems kind of in poor taste man.

The OL needs to have a good game, they’ll be in tough against a 9 man DL rotation and a pretty good LB corps. Edmonton can be had through the air if Zach gets enough time to operate. Ford is good obviously, but that’s far from an elite secondary.

Changes to the depth chart for tomorrow - Demski no longer a game time decision, listed as starting. WINNIPEG-at-EDMONTON_OCTOBER-11.pdf

He is guilty of poor roster management for sure but the logic people are extending here to the effect of that is mind boggling. Instead of just looking at the real cause for our losses, that being talent and depth drain in the trenches, they would rather fantasize that we had the talent here all along but it was on the bench. The second biggest reason is that our best players made some big time mistakes in each of those games....but nah....if we had dressed Miles Fox that would have overcome that. SMH.

And round and round and round we go.......

But hey come on......its just easier to blame Oshea for poor roster management.

What obvious changes would have won any of those games. Show your work. To say add this guy and subtract that guy would have won is not provable in any way. We could have made those "obvious" changes and lost even worse. None of us can say otherwise. To say we definitely win if this guys starts and this guy sits is not fact, it's opinion, and one that couldn't be proven one way or another. In all of those Grey Cups I watched players that were indisputable to be in our lineup make mistakes that gave the other team points and momentum. Maybe we should have sat them too? That's an inconvenient truth in all of this. Last year we lost mainly because our 1st and 2nd string QBs were injured. We had nothing but ham n' eggers left to play or a QB trying to gut it out. Those were our options. Anyone thinking Dolegala comes off the bench to lead us to the Grey Cup against that defence is dreaming in technicolor. We had one shot and one shot only at victory, Zach Collaros being able to gut it out. He couldn't but that doesn't change the fact he was our only option at victory. As was Montreal the year before.....and it doesn't matter who we had rostered, it was always going to be that way. We didn't have the horses. The Montreal game it was a calamity of errors by some of our best players that cost us victory not roster usage. Last year we simply could not compete with them in the trenches no matter who we dressed. 2022, again, our strength was our secondary. ELITE secondary all year that gets completely run over by Chad Kelly. Not roster usage there either. Big time players make big time plays. IF those plays are positive we win.....our best players were the ones that cost us in all 3 of those years. Plays that should have been made were not. For 3 years I have been talking about our talent erosion overall, and guys around here are beaking about how Jake Dolegala or Miles Fox would have won us the Grey Cup? The myopia is strong with this roster usage thing, probably because the drum has been banged so hard on it. Wanna know why we lost the last 3 Grey Cups? Their talent made plays and our didn't....and yea we got whupped in the trenches all 3 years because our talent has eroded on both sides of the ball in the trenches. Those are the REAL facts. Self inflicted wounds? Sure...by the players themselves not manning up when it was time to do so.

I played, not pro, but high level ball in the US. Never once did any of my team mates ever view a winning season as a failure. I can honestly say that to a man NONE did because we got rid of those kind of poor character guys in training camp. So don't give us that bullshit. Every single guy went to war with each other each of those years and are proud of them. You saying otherwise either shows that as a player you had a piss poor attitude that likely was the reason you couldn't stick in the pros, or you are completely full of **** about that in the first place. Quit talking like you da man and have some kind of deeper insight into how a football team operates. You don't. Sick of this bullshit on your part already. You don't speak for every pro player out there and how they think. You only speak for how YOU might view it, and like I said that would get you an awfully short pro resume.

Playing dolegala wasn’t gonna result in us winning. I mean this stuff is ridiculous cuz it’s in the past so you all can always be like well we would have won if we did what I wanted to do but there’s really no way to prove that so it’s just a cycle of going back in history over and over to prove points that can’t be proven. we lost. The other team won. That’s what happens in 1 game winner take all finals. But but the coach…. What about the ******* guys playing tho? I mean damn O’Shea throwing interceptions and dropping balls and missing fgs. Honestly. At what point is it actually on the players playing the game.

Well hey. We gonna get another draft pick to waste.

I literally think this is true lol. He probably lurks my moniker and giggle's and guffaws when i slobber away at JT’s ‘skill set’. Whatever i can do to help Mr. O’Shea.

Our DL besides Willie didn’t have the chops in that game at all. OL didn’t play well either. Agree there was bad roster management but Toronto was still the more talented team in the trenches imo. It showed in the game we lost to themhere late last season too.

yeah but Houston doesn't qualify as a bomber vet as he's only played 2 games for us this year. As far as the depth chart, I think OShea just lists JT as a starter to piss off people on this forum.

Apparently he had surgery that removed part of his colon, leaving him with a ;

For most Blue Bomber fans, the frustration comes from losing games (including Grey Cup games) when a few obvious changes would have won those games but our head coach was too damned stubborn to make those changes.

100% this. Nobody really talks about how good the Bills had to be in order to go to 4 straight Super Bowls - they just talk about the Bills losing those games because at the end of the day, that's what matters.

We do but apparently he hasn't genuflected enough yet.

how was 24 not a blown oppourtunity? The rival team's starting QB broke his leg the game before and they started a scrub. O'shea had horrible roster management and decisions. Again, self-inflicted.

Except O’Shea has repeatedly said his veterans don’t need to practice.
