Blue and Goldfish

Blue bomber twitter saying 30k and counting now! AWWWWWW YEAAAAAA!

There is definitely a lot this team needs to work on, from both sides of the ball. Up to week 11, our D has given up the most first downs in the league and 2nd last for net offence against, this needs to change, just as much as the need for us to score more touchdowns. The one thing our offence has done really well is we are second in the league for fewest 2 and outs but we are third last in first down production. Also second last for TD drive %. I think we still need more playmakers on offence, I miss Adams a lot but it would have been nice if one of our new import receivers showed a little bit more. We can't expect our receivers to have to dive out and make insane catches all the time, but we do need them to make those catches from time to time if we want to win. Nichols has done well enough a 70.7 completion percentage, gets first downs and like others have said drives the ball when it is most needed. Having said that we need to work on getting that ball in the endzone, personally i think if we had a bigger receiver it would help a bit more in that aspect. We still have a lot of games to go, let's see how this team does down the stretch.

Are empty coolers allowed?

Good on ya CFL. At least it appears you are finally trying to improve the quality of officiating. We will complain no matter what because so much is left to interpretation but hopefully this is a step in the right direction and we will see better officiating in the year to come.

I always enjoyed the chicken tenders and fries. They are tasty and the price is comparable to sitting down at a restaurant. As for the rest of the gameday experience. Maybe it is because I am older and don't care to watch them anymore, but Buzz and Boomer are not as good as they were in the 90's early 2000s. Would actually love to see more replays on the jumbotrons and not another advert. The tailgate outside has been a great idea. Hell bring back the hotdog cannons. Was there some hotdog related incident that they stopped doing this?

Looks like Popp forgot he still has GM duties...

But do we need to release one/both already to get under the cap from our off-season signings?

I would love to see him used as a checkdown guy, something we haven't had since......... Fred Reid???? or maybe ever. Anyways give him space and let him break some tackles. I am excited to see what he can bring and hopefully Lapo brings a CFL capable offence.

The DB's looked pretty good last night, they are in tough this year due to the new rule changes. DL needs to get more pressure, not sure if this is lack of talent or the riders just have a good OL, except I thought Clark looked shaky at times. I have more faith in Richie turning this D around then Etch ever could. And the defense made stops at the end when it mattered most.

Grey Cup preview Baby!!! no. What? You think Ottawa will make it? /s

Sounds like headline news, someone get Wiecek and Friesen on it.

How is Portis on 3rd and short? Whether you think Marve, Portis or Brohm are better, we need one guy who can consistently get us a yard on those short down conversions, and Marve is that guy. Also wouldn't mind letting him throw a deep pass on a second and short.

Sounds like some good talent on the field this year, can't wait for that first pre-season game!!!! Great to hear about Reeves, with his size I would love to see him on SP teams this year.

Agreed, I was happy with the pick at draft time and I am glad he showed up for RC but I want to see how he does in main camp and pre-season games. Initial impressions look good though.
