"If Marino hadn't broken a QB's leg on purpose, Duke never would have been suspended for trying to break a guy's face with his own helmet!" - Dickenson, probably

Interesting tidbit...

His fiancée had a helmet thrown at her once, there is no way he would do that.

why tho?...Brown been doing just fine...why mess up Legs with converts and field goals with Mancuso doing it....With Prukop holding he bobbled several screwing with Leggs timing...also dropped one...tho he did get a first down...Brown will come in anyway if ZC gets hurt...keep that salary savings on the 6 again...or trade or cut him....i see no use for him here now...if he back on roster Friday thats just another one of Osh's puzzling roster moves....his one fault...he does some dumb things...or pointless things

Still no excuses for 2 byes for some teams and not a single one for others. Sounds like half ass scheduling which falls in line with the half ass everything else the league does.

if the Bombers go 10 and 0 in this stretch it will be forever known as "10 of the best weeks of my life" lol. I used to get in such bad moods on Mondays if we lost. So far I've forgotten what that even feels like....me likes it.

Nobody cares that making a schedule for your dodgeball league is hard. This is a professional sports league where people can lose their livelihoods based on things like a win-loss record. Having such a slanted schedule for certain teams shouldn’t be acceptable and saying “it’s hard” isn’t an excuse. Professional football teams should never be playing 3 games in 12 days. Period. BC gets their last bye two weeks after we get our first. That shouldn’t be acceptable for either team. Look at how many teams play the last game of the week off a bye. It’s a joke.

If we bring the same offense into Calgary this week we're going to have a tough time

As someone who had had to craft schedules for various amateur leagues in my life, it’s hardly as straightforward as one would think. One team in an odd-numbered league will always get the first week off, one will always get the last week off, and saying “every team should get every 7th week off” is nice in theory but almost impossible to pull of in practice, unless one wants the dreaded back-to-backs pretty much all the time. Then factor in the balance of home-road contests so a team isn’t playing nine in a row on the road, and having to accommodate every team’s tenancy issues (BC, Winnipeg, and Toronto are all teams who share their stadium with soccer teams, would not surprise me if a bunch of the others do too) and other issues like conflicting dates for things like concerts, trade shows, etc. as well as accommodating the league broadcaster and it’s scheduling, and it can get complicated pretty quickly. People quick to criticize the schedule-maker should try it themselves if they think it is so simple, you would likely be surprised. Ad for those who say the schedule-makers are trying to stack the deck against the Bombers just to keep things balanced and give the rest of the league an advantage to beat them, well there’s a reason the eye roll emoji has now been added to the site. Take the foil hats off for a moment.

LOL @ the return of the "Thorax" injury! God I love this team...

Especially after stretches of 3 games in 10 or 12 days. The league sucks at scheduling.

Yeah it shouldn't be rocket science or hard to have at least 1bye week per team in the first 10..11 weeks.

the guys we want, are still on the sidelines..... the guys we don't want? Healthy as a horse...

"when you talk about a team as being possibly undisciplined a lot of times then the refs look at the team the same way.” Possibly undisciplined? Possibly? lol

Some things are hard - but we still need to get them right.

This picture smells like OV, brute aftershave and gas.

That’s exactly what Faj said after the 2019 WF

FaJ wasn't born yesterday, he's just trying to swerve everyone. It's actually his right knee that is injured.

He played one more game than schoen at a time when our wr core was struggling much more and with as many or more injuries. when McKnight first came on the roster demski was hurt adams was hurt and lawler was hurt. He played when all those guys were out or banged up and woli was banged up for part of it too. Bailey was struggling mightily with his hands and adams did too when he came back. we ran a bunch of screens and stuff called for McKnight. We don’t run a lot of plays designed for schoen. The difference is what schoen has done with his opportunity. Namely get open and catch every thing. He’s been able to stretch the field and do damage after the catch. I hope he manages to get into a game or two so he can qualify for the pension.

Harper obviously endorsed the sabotage of Patrick Brown's leadership bid and now he wants to ensure that a moderate PC like Jean Charest has little chance of winning by fully endorsing P.P. Until Harper and Manning are gone for good or thrown in jail, Canada will be plagued with the stink of their far right reform party platform of selfishness and hatred.

Nothing personal and we are in a bind with injuries, but this guy has literally never shown anything for us. Underwhelming. I’d rather have seen one of the other camp guys come back. Dude is the new Charles Nelson

I know "any given Sunday" but there's no way in hell we shoulda lost that Grey Cup.

I'd rather have this guy:

Probably the last guy I was hoping we’d bring back

Or the QB situation when Nichols went down and they didn't want Streveler being the full time QB. It's almost like Walters and company know what they're doing, back to back championships be damned...

I'll take Strev back ... 2 - 3 seasons from now once Zach retires. Until then we can't afford him and I'd rather he be in the NFL then on any other CFL club.

People seem to forget that Streveler was a very raw qb when he was here. Kicking around the NFL with presumably some of the best coaching available to him is not likely to make him a worse passer.

This year is make or break for the Riders. Hosting the Grey Cup... The added pressure is making their decisions even more questionable. If they miss the Grey Cup game I see Dickenson getting canned and them moving on from Fajardo

I wish people would forget the idea that Streveler is ever coming back here. He is gone, never to return. Be a backup qb here? If and that's a big if, if he does come back to the CFL, he will come back to a team that is willing to give him a chance of starting,probably 6 or 7 other teams

and....Riders think thats smart?...or is it their plan for an already made pregame excuse...and something to complain about when he gets hit....it's not like temas will let up...and if anything will go harder now within the rules...what a dumb organization

thorax's are so damn pesky

He’s tiny and slow. Guys with his mix of skill set and physical tools almost never succeed. The huge majority were screen passes for nil. Longest completion is 11 yards with 6.4 yard per catch.

Kadeem Carey among those not even at practice

He was yelling at his rookie QB all game

I would bet 95% of those were uncontested. Dude sucks. But, people insisted Nelson was actually a good returner as well.

Oh god i wake up each day craving one. They havent come back to Canada in like 10 years. Makes me hangry thinking about it.

Just throw a Bomb every 2nd and 6. Cant go wrong! Going to need to complete more than 7 passes this week.

I was at TC for one day and he was getting a lot of separation and catching everything. He was hurt during most of camp after that though. I dont recall him ever having issues with his hands. I was hopeful that he could take the next step as a 2nd year receiver but never got the opportunity. He might now

He feels his trash team has been unfairly labeled and cannot play the way they want (IE: Dirty)

Is this a comment on his entire career starting in childhood or did he do something recently?

He might technically run good routes (in practice?), but he doesn’t get separation and he doesn’t catch the ball. Hard to get excited

Milt showed up. He was about the only one who did that day.

TO always has ****** the scheduling up too. First it was because of the Jay's, now it's because of FC. Argos aren't and won't ever be a priority there.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/harper-poilievre-endorsement-1.6531995 Talking Sniveling about issues and misrepresenting them to stoke the fires of irrational fear of the uninformed is a far, far cry from having actual solutions. Poilievre decides to dodge a debate, so his former master runs to his aid in between making PragerU videos.

Oliveria averaged 4.8 yards a carry last game on 15 carries. That's a very solid average. We should have pounded the rock more (and with Johnny too) given the passing game and time of possession were hurting last game against Edmonton.

I'd like to see Augustine get a real shot for a few games in a row.

I remember being at a white sox game (barely remember) and they had a helmet that they turned upside down and filled it royally with tons of poutine,one of the best purchases of my life.

...or chasing it.

2 points....all that matters...1-0 each week
