Here are my thoughts - I think your DL including Hughes and Micah have fattened their stats against the bottom dwellers such as Toronto. Against Calgary by way of example they were only average. Let's see what happens against the better Olines as the season progresses. Hughes will tire out as the season progresses and especially if your offense can not stay on the field. I still like Hughes and he does bring it game in and game out  but if he has stay on the field for long periods of time over the season he will just plain wear out. 

Man that's cruel! But a good one never the less!

you guys say this every year when you lose - always the coaches fault etc. IMHO I don't think your team has the talent to succeed. Your Oline is very suspect, The high dollar value players you recruited on defense so far have been a non factor. You do not have a qualified starting QB - whether Zack would have qualified as that we probably never will know. I put the blame for your poor start on your GM for his lousy recruiting in the off year. IMHO your team spent too much money on players that were past their best before date.

I guess I can't reach you with logic - so will not try! However someone disagreeing with you does not make them stupid! Just makes them disagreeing with your position. But no matter - I guess you have spent too much time swimming in the shallow end of the gene pool to understand the concept .

not happy with your language here - if you can not express your opinions in generally acceptable terms maybe you should reconsider posting here. Maybe hard to understand but just because someone expresses an opinion that is different than yours does not make them either a moron or stupid. You need to grow up and join the adults in the room.

I can not help but agree - The league needs a viable franchise in Toronto - and what I am seeing tonight is so far away from viable that it scares me!

Hi Mark - I also found the site down - I wanted to see what the folks over there were thinking regarding TO coming to town - but the site seems to be down a lot this week.

The one play that stands out to me is the failure by the Lions to score from the 1 yard line at the end of the second quarter. Reilly is a big QB and I can not remember the last time anyone stopped him from gaining at least a yard. And to boot if I remember the play correctly, the Stamps defense stopped him right over where Chung sits at right guard. And Chung is known for his run blocking abilities from what I can remember. That IMHO might have been one of the pivotal plays of the game.

Wow a name for the Past - you know at some point in time there will only be a few of us old folks around here that remember good ol Nasty!

Oh Joy - a slower shorter Sam Hurl!

really strange weather in Calgary now - even snow warnings out for Baniff - I also checked and Regina has thunderstorm warnings out. Could be some rain, wind, hail and who knows what going on!

beat me to it!

great signing! still lots more to do but heading in the right direction.

Man i forgot about Ken Pleon. I probably mentioned this previously but I grew up in Des Moines Iowa and delivered papers for the Des Moines Register. If we sold enough papers (subscriptions etc.) we got free tickets and a bus ride to Iowa City to see the Hawkeyes play. That would be in the late 1957's as we moved to Dallas early 1960's. Ken was the Iowa QB and I can remember him to this day. Even now (I am in my 70's) I still remember those trips to Iowa City and the the Hawkeye teams from those days. He had long retired when I ended up in the Peg in 1981 but I still remember him on CJOB back in those days.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all the Bomber Fans out there - and I would also like to Wish a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to my buddies that are Rider Fans too! - it's the holiday season and I feel charitable toward those less informed folks!  

I Agree 100% percent - man I loved watching them play!
