Leggett comes back superhumanly early from an Achilles tendon and we're calling him brittle now... umm...

Crazy way to find another DB.

Once upon a time there was a wonderful place called Canad Inns Stadium. We must be careful not to speak about this time too loudly, but the memories of such a place warm us in this cold and horrible place and time we find ourselves in now. There was parking for 33,000 vehicles within 20 steps of any entrance into the stadium. Hundreds of invisible doves flew constantly around the stadium and would sweep down and take anyone who could not walk these 20 steps easily and they would carry them right up to their seat. Every fan was treated with an incredible 7 course meal for the sum of $1, or pocket lint if they did not have a loonie. It was such an incredible experience and everyone in the land was happy. Then a dark cloud covered the land. An evil presence was felt by all in the great land of Winnipeg. A booming voice was heard by all and the ground trembled. It was the evil Asper! The evil Asper tore down this beloved treasure, the Canad Inns Stadium. There was much weeping. The evil Asper banished the invisible doves to the island of Hecla where they were forced to play golf on a deserted course day and night. There was much weeping - though they were also confused about the island of Hecla. The evil Asper constructed a dungeon on a desolate and dark precipice of land that could only be reached by Sherpas riding mountain goats. The evil Asper then taxed the good people of the land of Winnipeg until they were all paupers in order to pay for his new dungeon that he named IGF. 10 times per year, the evil Asper and his evil henchmen would round up thousands of the now homeless people of Winnipeg and force them using pointed sticks and hobnail boots to walk the entire 100 mile stretch without the aid of mountain goats to reach his dungeon. While in this dungeon, the evil Asper forced the poor wretches to eat cold hotdogs and held them there until their families could find a way to scrape together the tonne of gold bricks that was needed to this sustenance. When the weather would get cold, he would even tell them that he had no hot chocolate! When the wailing was at its peak, they could hear the violin playing from the distant tower where the evil Asper would cackle and contemplate new indignities for his minions to endure while being held in his dungeon called the IGF. And there was much weeping throughout the land. Could there be a hero somewhere who could free the people of Winnipeg of their misery?

Chris Jones' team just made it to HBO!

I could only imagine the ego of Carter if Owens took his spot lol

Calgary since Huffer took over have been the standard. I would love for us to be like them and yes that does mean making the cup 5 times in 10 years and only winning 2.

They need to live mic every TO/DC interaction.

Yeh But the way Streveler looked when he played he could start for a few of the other teams right now.

When Lulay starts, they are at least semi-competent.

The funny thing is IGF is 100x more comfortable to attend events at than MTS Place. The place does not get its credit in the city.

O’Shea said he expects Leggett to practice tomorrow.

When its forcing turn overs and sacking qbs its elite. When it isnt its among the worst. And when you have elite level talent and regular struggles its bad. A big thing for me as well is his adjustments havent been good this year, and the team tackles poorly out side of a couple excellent one on one tacklers. A lot of tackling is coaching. If he was fired right now, i doubt very much he would have another DC job with in a couple years. If he did, itd be a desperation move by a bottom dweller. He is below replacement level for contending teams.

could be preventive. He missed a big chunk of time, and even being back in shape with out having a TC to ease into game action and game speed a few extra vet days would be wise. Course he could be hurt, its just a possibility. No doubt. The question is, do we gain more from the upgrade of MO at sam then we lose having fenner at db? Either way if both guys are on the field im not worrying about it. 1a and 1b for the best sam in the league. I hope corney is back and healthy soon. He was reallying turning the corner before he got hurt. He is going to make a tough decision next year at DE.

Him and Andrew Wettenhall would butt heads so hard they'd need to wear crash helmets in meetings

I predict Wally Buono.

Most of us want and know we need a GC championship. Other than that, what's your point? Just my approach but as a lifelong Bomber fan I don't defend other teams by pointing out our deficiencies, doesn't feel right.

Jones is a true innovator. He never runs out of pure gimmicks. He will work out anything on two legs, that is big and athletic. Probably will raid the WWE, next.

The blueprint to beat Masoli and Jones offense is out there . Just watch the tape of HAMs losses to SSK and OTT.

Well, at some point O'Shea certainly had to realize that was a waste of his talents and put a stop to it. This is probably what he meant by saying he would be more involved in the defense. Not that he would take it over but that he would start changing roles when necessary. Now ... Tough to say where our defense is coming off the Toronto series because Franklin got demoted this last week. The way I see it, we should be able to pound Masoli into submission if Ottawa's Noel Thorpe defense can do it. But as I said, that means no more of that silly 15-yard cushion nonsense. They also got Alex Green back and Chris Williams added to the mix so could get interesting.

Apparently TO has worked out for the riders....lol

To me the next game will be the real test of what Hall has or has not accomplished. We know by now it is not the talent we have...It is the schemes and what is called when, as well as what if any adjustments are made at half time.

At least four, by my count.

we have 22 as well actually

It is a joke that there is no bike/foot bridge connecting UofM with St. Marys Road.

I'm sure he's quite happy when he cashes his game cheques. But interestingly enough. I predict another Henoc Muamba release in the off season. Once again he signs a multi year contract but will only see 1 year of it. Another perfect example of taking the money over the right fit. Looks good on him though.

No, not my work, as stated on the first line..CFL.ca provides the info, I just edit it a little. I find it informative and just want to share these facts.

The thing is Manziel does have the physical abilities to succeed in the CFL. Nik Lewis tweet was correct that it's shameful they are screwing his future in order to sell a few tickets.

I'd rather have 2 QB's that can win games.

Wonder if Henoc is happy with his choice....

Throwing moving backwards ain't gonna work here.

Drug Flutie, since all they've done is compare him to Flutie. A little derogatory though.

Johnny football is just getting warmed up.....that last toss was nice.....even telling the receiver where to get to while running

I live an hour south of the city and was at the game last week. We parked 30 mins away from the stadium at the LC on Pembina (my lazy excuse to get a workout instead of going to the gym). Literally zero traffic heading southbound from there, just waited for red lights but other than that was off to the races. When I had season tickets at CanadInns, I would get stuck between St. James to Ness turning onto Kenaston for at least the length of my 30 minute walk. We used to run right after the final buzzer to get to the car to try to sneak out via Empress instead but that was hit and miss. TL;DR, everyone has had different experiences at both locations and it probably depends on which direction you are going after that determines your commuting experience to and from games.

my biggest question about last week's game ... why did that Argo dude bring his giant framed panther poster to the sideline?

I travel 70miles each way. I get home at 12:30 from a 7:30 game.....70 miles away. One guy says he gets home at 12:30 in the city?? You are driving in circles than. I like parking at the value lot. 10 bucks, 5min shuttle ride to the tailgate area. I love Bomber Game Days! I love going to the games it is the highlight of the week for me on home game weeks!

Fixed that for you.

i wanna say 2 more years but i dont recall. sask is a great destination for high value FAs to get a huge signing bonus before joining a good team.

Strange onside kick attempt. Bombers may make strange calls but they aren't the only ones
