  1. Totally ridiculous.Why? Because he was horrendous last week?
  2. Grey Cup '96. My childhood memories are that the Nylons performed every Grey Cup halftime show between '82 and '98. You had a long childhood.
  3. They have a popular song "radio active" you'd probably know it if you heard it I am pretty sure it was even used in a commercial for something... I got nothing against them but based on the little I know about them it's not a good half time show pick. Why? I like the choice. I think they'll put on a good show. Hopefully they can get a decent set up stage wise and not be propped up on a box at centre field with a dozen cheerleaders around them.
  4. That must be why the team never wants to talk about it.
  5. I agree with all of this, except the 'stellar' part. Morley is a much better center than guard, to be sure, but I've also seen him fall down virtually untouched on a few occasions.
  6. No its a fantastic idea, especially given our ratio problems and one that many of us here have suggested time and time again. Not to mention JFG and Willy seem to have some chemistry, where Bryant and Willy obviously do not. I really don't know why they haven't at least given this a shot.
  7. Some of you should seek out therapy. Riders are an obsession for a lot of you. There's people on here obsessed with the Riders? You realize you're a rider fan with over 500 posts on a Bomber board, right?
  8. Anyone know where you can watch the games?? Other than flying to Penticton.
  9. I'm pretty sure he stripped Sunseri on the QB sneak.
  10. IF you tackle the guy before he's already returned the ball to midfield the holding never has a chance to happen... When you let a returner get to the point where there's only one guy with a chance of stopping him you've failed in your coverage a long time before. That's absolutely true, but it doesn't mean there wasn't a hold and that it shouldn't have been called. yeah but when the coaches break down the film you think they will say to the team "OK it's not your fault, the refs just missed the holding"? What they're going to do are highlight the guys who didn't contain the returner initially because that's where the biggest mistake on the play came in. I really don't see how the 2 things are related. Of course the coaches will use the film to illustrate where the play broke down and point out the errors, so they can be corrected. That's their job and it's the players job to execute. Just like the refs blew a call that it is their job to make.... But I doubt they will be looking at film to see where they failed. Two seperate things: The Bombers failed to keep their lanes and make a tackle and the refs missed an obvious hold. The point is, that if you are play well and take care of your own play and don't make mistakes then the refs don't come into play at all. Obviously, but why use if's? If Dressler had of muffed the punt reception, he never would have had the chance to return it, the Bombers wouldn't have missed the assignments/tackles and the refs never would have blown the call. The fact is, the play happened the way it did.

  13. Yes, hopefully Couture was just going with him because he has the key to the washroom?
  14. He left practice early with the trainer. No word on severity.
  15. That was better than I was expecting. Pretty cool.
  16. Let's hope he just had to take a dump. No Willy or Moore on Sunday would make for an uphill battle, to say the least.
  17. I didn't see the game, but didn't Brink go, something like 8-21 the last game he played? Now he's starting?
  18. This happened right in front of me and I was furious! Was it a good block? Sure. But if he had looked for someone else to hit, instead of celebrating like a complete idiot, that return could have been bigger... Maybe even gone the distance. What a tool.
