He has been really good the past month.

Why are you even on this forum - you just repeat the same pointless garbage and are a constant downer.

Time to badmouth Scorch: your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries. I fart in your general direction.

It's so over the top, it must be a Left-wing-Soros-Clinton-Deep State plant.

Headline - Cameron Judge Benefits From Sam Hurl’s Tutelage Cameron Judge: “I ask him or get some pointers from him while we’re watching film. He has been really helpful for me this year.” Gaining more playing time in 2018, @CameronJudge has a strong LB mentor in @SamHurl. Sam Hurl..”Do you see what I did there? Well, don’t do that” Or “Do you see what I did there? “That’s exactly the right technique, but you have to do it a hell of a lot faster” “Do you see what I did there? ”That’s called the chase mode. Always be prepared to follow that ball carrier closely” https://www.riderville.com/2018/10/25/cameron-judge-benefits-sam-hurls-tutelage/

Clearly, Democrats have pulled off the greatest false flag operation of all time.

One more day to survive 'bye week' forum banter...

Pretty rare occasion for me to use the Ignore feature... gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.

The phone call: Trump: Hello, this is President Trump calling. I'm calling to tha... MAGA Nutter: Pardon me. T: I said, this is President Trump calling. I'm calling to thank-you... M: No, pardon me. T: (Speaking away from the phone) We must have a bad connection, can someone help me here. M: Sir. I want you to know I did it for you. T: Oh good, you can here me now. Have you seen my latest poll numbers? M: Pardon me. T: Jesus, why can't we get a proper connection. Chinese are listening in on this, I'm sure. (Somewhere in China): Heehee. M: I want you to pardon me. T: Oh, pardon you. Sure thing.

You know, I've sometimes thought, in the most Bizarro-world kind of way, that Trump actually is telling the truth when he makes his outrageous claims, just that the target is the exact opposite of who he says it is. He says "fake news" and points out the mainstream media as the culprits. Well, the biggest purveyor of fake news seems to be Donald himself (too exhaustive a list to recap, hope no one wants to challenge me with "cite an instance where he's lied"), so fake news does exist, but seemingly from his own mouth as much as anywhere. "Massive voter fraud" he claims as a ready defence if he loses, like the deep state is out to shut him down, yet the only instances of fraud I hear about are Russian collusion (in his favour), voting laws that consistently restrict minorities inordinately over white people, missing ballots or difficult voting practices in predominantly black neighbourhoods, and gerrymandering that all seems to end up favoring Republicans. "Drain the swamp" he says like the old order under Obama was terrible, and he'll clean it up, yet he has provided us with Conway, Miller, Bannon, the nepotism gang et al and exposed the swamp he surrounds himself with. Now I know the Dems have their bad seeds too, nobody is clean here, it's just funny that Trump, in trying to decry the flaws he sees in the system out to get him as some sort of persecution complex he has manifested, has in actuality shone a big bright shining light on those same issues that he himself he practices but has wholeheartedly railed against. John Oliver actually did a piece on gerrymandering (for anyone unfamiliar, it is the process of geographically re-aligning voting districts so that a politician can skew which voters can vote in which districts, and therefore manipulate the vote by loading the majority of the opposing candidate's voters into one area and spreading their own voters out into slim majorities in many districts, thereby winning the vote by winning the majority of the districts, even if they lose the overall vote count - that was my takeaway from it). What is astounding is that the process is totally legal, and the re-districting happens every election and is in total control of the ruling party, so the incumbent can legitimately shape the voting districts to his/her benefit and maximize the likelihood of winning the election, even with a minority of actual votes cast for them. Not sure how this compares to Canadian politics, but Doug Ford's unilateral ruling that the Toronto city counsel would be shrunk despite a court ruling saying he couldn't reminded me of this political gamesmanship.

I don't get why he was fined. Peter says bring it. Duke brings it and trucks Peters. Just another football play IMO.

Screw you, Skunk.

What the heck happened to Loffler? He's out. Worried about Hecht and Morgan back there.

I just have this feeling that Mike O'Shea has impressed on his team the importance of not waiting until the last week of the season to punch their ticket to the playoffs. I am expecting to see the Bombers come out flying to take care of their own business now and not leave it to chance.

**** the Stamps and their trash fans. Go Bombers.

So if I don't my math incorrectly, we should be able to put up 265 on them!

......complete with FAKE VAN!

I think they use milk cartons for that sort of thing.

It's quite good. and funny.

I’ll pay real money if they arrest him while he’s wearing a MAGA hat.

This is indefensible

I bet it was worth it..

I'd say anyone with half a brain and an iota of football knowledge who watched the WSF last year and the year before can confidently say Nichols wasn't the problem in either instance. But apparently, there are some who lack brains and football knowledge.

Nichols threw for 390 yards and no picks against the Lions, in the 2016 WSF. I know NS is just trolling but the narrative that Nichols can't win big games is silly. The defense folded when they needed them. As usual, with the anti-Nichols crowd, they want him to win the games by himself but will only give credit for team wins. They want him to throw over 300 yards and be a difference maker but don't want him making mistakes. Of course, when he does that, it doesn't matter because "he's a game manager and can't win big games." Doesn't matter what Nichols does or doesn't do. They will blame him for losses and praise the "team" for wins. There's even a narrative now, that the team would be better if Streveler played a whole year. (Ignoring the fact that we would be nowhere near the playoffs)

Some football thread.....

I hope the Bomber players are as tired as the fans are of being the Stamps little whipping boys every time we play them. There should be a lot of motivation to win tonight for at least 4 reasons. 1. To put even more doubt in the heads of the Stamps that they won't even get to the Grey Cup this season. 2. If we have to go back to Calgary for a playoff game then we can beat them in their stadium. 3. We clinch a playoff spot. 4. A big EFF YOU to the Eskimos as we eliminate them from the playoffs. JUST GET 'ER DONE!!

let em be snarly, punch em in the mouth anyway.

Gainey givin' it to the Riderville whiners on Twitter...

I'd agree, but he looks a little too ethnic to become a far right hero. Stay tuned for how they spin that.

“Tonight is the biggest game of the year for the @Wpg_BlueBombers! Hearing, only a few hundred seats remaining. Lets bring the noise!! Hope to see you all before the game! #bombers #ForTheW”- Steve Morley

Entitled “everything we know”, Fox downplay the van, never mentions the suspect is a republican or avid trump supporter.

Lay off the weed and get on the scotch. GO BLUE!

Do you think that step-children who go missing have their pictures put on cartons of half and half?

Universal acclaim and sparkling reviews across the board. GOTY? I absolutely cannot wait to play this.

Is his name George and is he a holocaust survivor?

It's advisable to read a post before commenting on it. I said "assuming he continues to progress". Streveler will still be young in 2020, while Nichols will be 33. 33 isn't old for a QB nessasarily, but again, Nichols is no BLM or Reilly.

I still say our best/most likely scenario would be for Nichols to start 2019 with Streveler backing up...then going into 2020 we offer Streveler starters $ (assuming he continues to progress) and hopefully keep Nichols around as a backup.

Don't believe anything that Rod Pedersen tweets.

Nichols to Stegall wasn't the reason he got 300 yard games last year. Try again.

Well when prime milt stegall suits up for this team with Nichols I'll hold his passing numbers to that standard. Why ignore that? Stegall, Bruce, Gordon, hell of a lot better than what we got now.

I was listening to Jim Hughson go on about how Canadians from "coast to coast" have heard enough about the William Nylander saga and how they didn't need to hear that name anymore and I was just throwing up in my mouth. Guess what, I've hardly heard anything about William Nylander because I rarely read any Leafs crap. And I change the channel when Leafs crap comes on TV. Just don't care. Now if he played for Winnipeg, I'd know all about it. But to assume that "coast to coast" Canadians have been inundated with William Nylander news is ridiculous. Just such arrogance that we would even give a **** about William Nylander.
