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

I remember us missing the playoffs for about 55 years in a row.  Couple extra ok maybe 10 whiskey's of Gimli origin, and we grabbed a rain coat and went to the game.  Now the fans are going to say maybe we should stay home, it might rain and they will cancel the game.

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.

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

Right back at you

He is also a Canadian starter

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

Grow up.  If that return happened against you guys last night you would be losing it.  This cannot continue, it is making the league look really bad. This league has struggled to shake the bush league appearance ever since I have watched it. A team lost a grey cup a couple years ago on a illegal block call. Now we just aren't going to call it at all??  Just let it be a freeforall out there.  That head shot on Adams last week against Ottawa is another one, this crap needs to end

Good first post.  I won't comment too much as I don't want to derail the thread.  I would be very concerned about how much of the offense is directly associated with Andrew Harris if I was a Bomber fan.  I really like him, he is a warrior and a leader. Its AJ or the fly sweep

"No Lead Is Safe" (....except if there's a bit of lightning...)

Can't do that.  Add the time etc. on to the next game when we play them.  OR just wait and heaven forbid TSN doesn't have it on tv, which is likely the real issue.  I sat and drank beer for a long time in Regina while we had a delay this year, no one called that game

Ok so some people are ok with it and the entire fan base is delusional????  What is pathetic is posts like yours, you make the entire fan base of the Bombers look bad. Do you speak for all Bomber fans??

This reeks of TSN's influence.  The longer they have to wait it out the higher the production costs for tv and they don't want their crew waiting longer than they need to.  Plus they would be splitting their CFL audience in two with 2 games occurring simultaneously for an hour or so.
There is a desperate need for competition for tv rights when the contract is up in 2 years.
 

Not going to get into this too much right now. BUT no one here is happy about this, I want to play the game.  If we lose we lose. This is bullshit. This league is going to **** in a hurry.  How am I supposed to enjoy this as a fan. We won, kinda…..    #nothappy
