TO is approaching the level of dumpster fire the als were under reed. Never underestimate how bad or dumb it can get. I could see popp taking over for a few games this year then trying to poach a coach in the off season.

The culture shock in terms of work to prep for each week as well as to continually improve at the Pro level is really daunting. That combined with the reality of concussions and other injuries I feel scares off a lot of young players. Pro football, like fighting, is often not a career path for people with a wide array of options.

They seemed pretty high on McGloster. Seemed the long term back up / developmental replacement for foketi. Wasnt he a guy they waited for for a while as well? Could be the team prepping spots for eventual NFL cuts to cycle through as per usual.

What i would give for the cfl to be free of him, pederson and sutter.

Poor mans tebow. 😂

You arent going to stop it, not in this day and age. You can only slow it down. Or try to. When ever you any amount of money, you can always find a way to spend it foolishly. Bc isnt remotely the only team to spend foolishly recently or otherwise. The jon ryan deal is worse imo.

I guess one of the untitled movies with be the next GOTG flick. I just dont see them skipping that cash cow for 2 more years. Thats probably why they have the untitled. If they have to cancel its not a big deal. If they promise and dont delivery it is. Im worried about the disney vision junk. I kind of agree. Though I thought the same when I heard GOTG was going to be a movie. So I gotta give them the benefit of the doubt. Also I really liked the thor the un worthy series with jane foster as thor and odinsons journey. But every movie it seems they strip thors powers now. Its not what I want to see again any time soon. And I dont see portman pulling off jane foster any better then they already did. Plus they kind of wrote her out. Feels clunky and poorly thought out. Id rather see more valkyrie, and put off having some one else wield the powers of thor again. Not to mention the hammer no longer has the inscription and bestows the power of thor. Thats pretty clear. Maybe we will see 2 thors?

Love the JRE. And yeah I wish he would go further into detail on the supplement biz. His podcasts with novitzky and armstrong are especially great on these subjects. Hecht is as savage with the tweets as he is with the hits.

Id rather be tom brady.

Some Interesting stats for the bombers and cats. 5 games in the cats are tied for the most Yards Per Carry given up on defense. Tied with the argos, the only team to give up more rushing yards then the cats. The bombers have given up the fewest yards by a mile, and the 2nd fewest YPC against. We have also not given up a rushing TD yet. The Pass D is remarkably similar for the cats and bombers. 1393-1330 passing yards against, 56.1 - 59.1 completion % against, 7.1-7.8 YPA, 4tds-8ints and 2tds-4ints. (the first stat in each category is the bombers number) The cats have 18 picks on D this year to the bombers 9. The bombers have the 2nd best rushing attack in the cfl, while the cats are 6th. The cats have the 2nd most passing yards and we have the 2nd fewest. Its a battle of the 2 best punt return teams, and 2 of the 3 best kick off return teams. A big factor will be the bombers are top 3 in avg and net avg punting where the cats are 7th and 5th respectively. hamilton have given up the 2nd fewest sacks and we have the 3rd fewest. The keys for us will be pounding the ball, limiting the pressure the cats get on nichols, and protecting the ball. Our special teams and run game look poised to win the field position battles. This one should come down to pressure and turn overs.

The way id approach a guy like him isnt with raw speed. Plus our imp dbs arent slow guys by any means. Id shift vice coverages around on him. Have his db cover over and then show but drop kyrie or WJ under neath him, Or DB under and hecht over. Id play him physical. Hit him hard on every running play. Put his butt on the turf every play you can. Thats how you slow a guy down. Its better to show blitz and drop guys sending only 3 or 4 at masoli then to try to out blitz them. Ham schemes for banks very well. Dbs gotta fight through blocks and make him pay a price when he tries to go over the middle.

Yeah could see one of the most explosive, but that doesnt grab clicks. You cant defend speed. Especially in the cfl. In years prior we heavily recruited extremely fast athletic defenders. But more lanky wrs with good speed then speedsters. Ill take speed/quicks over size every day of the week.

If you get low quality supplements, even some mid tier stuff you can find contamination for a crazy range of illegal drugs. Supplements are a scary world.

This seems the most likely reason to me for both biggie and mathews missing. Did mathews come back to the cfl to sit as a healthy scratch? I dont think so.
-
I would agree. Walker has better top end speed. Lucky is still stupid fast in high gear. The huge difference maker is that Lucky is worlds quicker and more explosive in small spaces. His Change of direction is drastically better as well.

Old people unite! In all seriousness the written word is a beautiful thing, when done properly. (see ed tait) But the world of print/type is mostly inundated with poorly written junk. The real nail in the coffin of print media isn't any thing electronic, its the dying out of the great beat writers. I didnt even make it that far.

Perhaps some thing like the NBA where cfl teams can offer a super max deal (which would involve capping the amount a single player can earn, which would be good) after 3 years of service. Ive always thought teams should be compensated when losing a star player in FA that they developed. Like the MLB system, but not costing as much as first round picks. More neg list players and less for teams that sign more fas, stuff like that.

Idk the financial details behind the lapointe lead group. But I bet that they are exactly the passionate local group that the team needs.

Exactly what you want to hear, and what you expect to hear from a Mos team. Also, I reaaallly want us to beat the snot outta the tigernaughts.

3 stars plus HH red black and blue part two
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
It does happen. Some or the bad angles I get. They were working to shut down the pass and did. Plus our secondary loves to hit. Hate arm tackle attempts though. -

Alot of those big runs came from arm tackles and bad angles. But it was already a route at that point -

Also missing the clear no catch on otts redzone drive. Plus all the late game holding calls on us -

Harris could be a star every game. Tough start and pulled through huge afterwards. -

Was thinking the same thing about peterrman he could start for most teams in the league. Hope lucky is healthy and we have to make a tough choice. Lawler played great. -
1 Nichols. Good game spreading the ball around hitting spots best game of the year for him. 2 gaitor. Two big hits causing drops that would have been first down. A big sack and a couple good tackles in the box. Hh the crowd for forcing a time count when the RBS tried a fake FG that was working but got pushed out of FG range. Honorable mention to jeffcoat and WJ who had big games and got tons of pressure.
