as dragon said we suffered from chronic bad tacklers last night, even from our best tacklers. That said calgary racked some a ridiculous edge in TOP some thing like 15 minutes more then we had. And when defenders get tired, tackling is the first thing to go. Hes came up with a massive one on one tackle against toronto its not some thing that would be expected of him. Nor would the early missed tackle that got calgary a first down instead of punting by ian wild.
No one player can have this loss pinned on them. We spotted calgary a 2 td lead and hardly showed up at all in the first half. You just cant do that. You know your playing flat when MOS pulls the team aside mid game to tear a strip off them.
Fogg got beat like a red headed step child, and really none of our dbs looked good. Not even mo. I think its coaching. How you start the game is a huge portion coaching and preparation. Its some thing that mos can learn and improve on though. But this junk of they are pros they are allways prepared and play hard has to go out the window. Even he now has to see that simply isnt the case.
On coke? Your facts are worse than Trumps.

Hopefully Davis gets some good juju from his parents neighbour, President Frank Underwood. All are from Gaffney, SC.

Just checked the Bomber site and Darvin Adams, Jeff Keeping, Gerrard Shephard, and CJ Roberts are still listed as being on the 6 game (Macho Harris and Patrick Neufeld are also still on that list but no one is in a hurry to take them off
). Wild and Frederick were on the one game but have come off obviously. I think we miss Darvin and hope to see him back before playoffs.
Bringing guys from the 6 game in a hurry affects the cap. With our adequate replacements we're good. We could be very fresh when it counts.

The vid of Bud on the horn at the Mansion on the Mississippi is very cool. It caused goose bumps, tbh. Wish I'd been there.

rooting for Edm because i want that home playoff game
A home playoff game is way more exciting than a playoff appearance which would still be fantastic. Lions losing pretty much means we have our own destiny in our hands.

I guarantee that if we win, I'll have to call a cab to get me to Foody Goody and then the Oak.

c'mon guys...Dickenson and every other co-ordinator know what we're running...and our practises are open to the public...that's not the only time we've used the formation I refer to above; I mentioned it specifically to give others an idea what it looks like, (it was the best video example I could think of)...but I appreciate what you're saying...I wouldn't ever disclose gadget plays etc that other teams may never have seen us run...if the mods want to delete it...I have no objection
Actually Sam, I liked your practise report. If what you wrote is for real or not, is the Calgary coaches problem. Now let's say they take what you allegedly observed and practised to counter those plays. Who's to say our Blue would even run those plays in a game. Maybe your throwing the Stamps off their plans. Wahaha ha. It's like the ol' rope a dope. Let the stamps offence get tired out by marching the ball up the field, and when they are exhausted, "Whammo". We hit em where it hurts.
Maybe our coaches are just that smrt. Like Ditka smart. But Canadian.

Lemme see if I have this correct. Darvin Adams was hurt in Edmonton at the beginning of the win streak. He was placed on the 6 game IR, I think. Shouldn't the six games be up and wouldn't it be dandy if he was in the line up against the stamps?

The Bombers can't expose her as a fraud as that has the potential to expose them to further abuse the next time they attend a game. They have to let this pass.
Exactly. Which is why I posted the Bartman story re: Chicago Cubs. The organization has to take steps to ensure every game attendees safety.

There is a fella on Facebook that is looking for video of this incident. Ironically his name is Christopher Jones. He just wants to get to the facts of the matter.
Fan violence is far from being a new thing. You all have heard the soccer hooligan stories, or the deaths that have occurred in the US because of intense rivalries and important games. The NFL evidently meets weekly to review fan violence incidents.
fan blow back against boneheaded fan actions can also be severe. See aftermath for Steve Bartman incident.

If you get 33,000 people together in one place and make booze available, you are going to get this sort of stupidity. Its just the numbers.
You bet. This is not a unique incident of a Winnipeg, or the Blue Bombers. Likely every event with large groups of people and liquor is susceptible to a confrontational act. In fact assaults are possibly common enough at any event with booze.
Wonder if those assaulting the kid are hockey dads.

Sheesh. How could I have forgotten about this catch already. Ok, I'm fine with Smith being in the game now.

Mike O'shea was quoted today - "It'll be fun for the guys, it'll be a good time. We have great fans."
Ryan Smith was quoted today - "Fans in this province are awesome...I'm excited to see what these Blue Bomber fans bring in a packed house!"
Great quotes about the great Fans of the Winnipeg Blue Bomber Football club.

Noeller being Noeller. Just a big mouth. I'd love for him to take me on once & for all as he always talks **** about me as a Bomber fan. Loser has to leave for an entire year. C'mon Noeller. Don't be a wuss. You're such a great fan that you should clean up. Loser leaves for a year. Mike & the mods can make up & ask us the questions. You game? Can you live without this site for 365 days??? I just put my ass on the line here. Will you? Or are you a coward?
Nothing like ISO blowing an "O" ring.

ME too. I love the Cate Blanchette line. Whoever brought that to the board, gets a great big Marishka Hargity!

Next, the Saskatchewan franchise will want to defect and start their own league. The CFL will be back to 8 teams.
Three teams will play in the Rival Football League. All teams will be from Regina. All will wear the same uniforms because the green guys only know one jersey. Players will be supplied by the gigantic taxi squad and 3000 players that have been tested for the limit of 120 players only per squad. They will play one game a week, with the third getting the bye because they are entitled to a rest. Each team will play 13 games in protest of the 2009 great cup. There will be 13 players on the offence and defense, because counting 12 is too hard, as we saw on Sunday. Each team will have Darian Durant as quarterback, because they love watching him play. Chris Jones will promote himself to commissioner, gm, coach and earn all that extra cash. If one team scores 20 and the other 10, they must share points in order that they tie, 15-15. Socialist leanings suggested this scoring scheme as adopted from and invented by the Russian "Original" World Series of baseball.

In a way Jones and Pedersen are exposing the stupidity and sheep nature of "ridernation". Cuz instead of going on about turnovers and really bad coaching they are spewing conspiracy. There is no conspiracy tho. There is a coach tho who is doing everything he can to cover his own ass. And a Shill who is spreading the message to the fans who seem to lack the football iq to see that they have bigger problems. It's genius stuff actually and proving how stupid their fan base actually is
In a similar theory, J and P are doing no favours to themselves or their fans by lying, spinning, conspiracy theories, and not taking responsibility. By calls such as bad challenges, by taking bad 3rd down gambles, and using excessive numbers of players to start the games, cheating on the PR, he is setting a bad example for players to follow. His players begin to believe it's not about hard work, practice and managing risk, it's about ill advised trickery.
For all I care, they can continue to bury their heads and not face the truth of why they are losing so badly. Their record is now 6 wins and 40 losses, since September 2014 and they deserve it. MOS is miles ahead by working through his issues, including not rehiring poor performing coaches.
