  1. Had a mean mullet myself in the 80's. Hockey hair.
  2. Willy is a big no way jose for sure. Bridge is bad, oh boy, he is bad. He makes every play like he wants it to be the highlight of the night on sports center. BUT, at least Bridge can run around. Its sad that there is a lack of qb's around. Where is Alex Ross these days
  3. I just knew you were a hippie. I'm a brush cut man, goes with my crusty disposition, lol
  4. He had that long hair that looked like a mop. I read he was growing it out so it could get cut to make a wig for cancer patients. High character thing to do
  5. I wouldn't know because I haven't been in the situation, but this is reality for every player in professional sports. Matt knows what he signed up for
  6. My bad. Thought he came mid season the year before for some reason
  7. Its a contract year for him, you are 7-2. Couldn't be a better time to try him out than now. Its his third year with the team, no reason why he can't play a couple games by now. Good players are ready by now to take a step. Its time to find out. Have to give him a few games though, he will have his successes and his struggles like any rookie would. As much as I have my opinions on Matty Ice, he is a veteran qb and he offers the option to throw when needed and he can read defenses. Very unrealistic to think teams will respect Streveller in the same way, equally unrealistic to expect things to continue on the same way they have. They may be worse, they even be better, but one thing is for sure, they won't be the same.
  8. This may sound odd, but I liked Straight outta Crompton when he played. He lacked physical gifts it seemed but he was smart and got the most out of what he had. I have a feeling he will do well in this job
  9. There is a difference between coaching to win and coaching not to lose
  10. I salute you. The league never has enough do or die fans in it. Thanks for supporting the league all these years. I've never taken the time to add them up, I imagine I am in the 400 and some club
  11. I always liked him. Sometimes goes for the hit too often when he should make the tackle but I like the aggressiveness. Willie had to get paid somewhere and I think it was at the expense of Loffler
  12. You are a huge Homer. Might be a news flash for you but the Bombers don't dominate every position and player and statistical category in the league
  13. Its more like we get along fine as long as I don't call anyone out. The second we disagree I am a troll, is that pretty much how it is?
  14. 12 tackles and 2 ints, which happened in the same game and one was a deflected ball.. Edem has 31 tackles and 1 sack. No one in their right mind would switch Edem for Hecht. No one
  15. Edem can at least keep up with the play and is tall enough to go on all the rides at the fair
  16. Hecht is a starter on your team and you are laughing at our depth???
  17. People are the starter for a reason, there isn't a backup rb in the league that could replace half of what Harris does, in fact most of the starters in the league couldn't replace him either. You are crazy if you think the loss of Harris wouldn't be huge and devastating to your team. He is size and speed, if you don't get ready and respect his power he will run you over. If you get too low and try to take his legs out he will dance around you. If he hits open field he is gone and you can't catch him. Also most rb's don't have good hands, who is going to catch all the passes he gets or replace his blocking skills. For a starting running back right now in the cfl, at all facets of the game, there is no one better.
  18. I know, but replacing him as a Canadian is another issue
  19. Neither Saskatchewan or Edmonton would be completely devastated if either of them got hurt too. They would be missed but the entire offense doesn't revolve around them.
  20. The problem isn't that you run the ball a lot to Harris, he is a great running back any team would love to have. I think the problem is he is only one you throw to and that's the issue
  21. I would actually be super happy for the friends of mine who are long time Bomber fans. They have stood by the team for many years and deserve a good old fashioned we won the cup drunk that lasts a couple days. Obviously I would rather we won it ourselves but don't assume other teams wouldn't be happy for the Bombers to win it. And my comments you keep referring to are about a certain qb that won't be named, whom I am not much of a fan of. So feel free to sign up at Riderfans and debate about it there, because I will not do it here
  22. I agree with you on this. The worst one though is when its the first guy down field, how does a ref miss that?? If its way across the field and not relevant then don't call it. The returns do add to the excitement of the game and how many times have all of us stood up and not cheered on a return td because we were looking to see if there was a flag on the field. That on last night... Wow
