  1. O'Shea is going into protective dad mode, likes he seem to do around injuries. Did the same thing around K. Wilson after the Banjo Bowl. I think he has a point that wild speculation on the air in the spur of the moment perhaps isn't the most constructive, but it is basically Stegall's job. Ultimately I think Stegall's comments got blown out of proportion, and latched onto by a number of redditors. We don't actually know the extent of Collaros's injury, or how long he'll be out. I expect he'll be back this season, and I'm sure he is already considering retirement after this year or next.
  2. Changing the topic, but I haven't seen much acknowledgement of how smart it was of Sask to do the "quick kick" on third down near the end of the game last week. The Bombers did not at ALL see it coming... we should have been better prepared. I would generally think O'Shea would be able to anticipate such a thing, even though it was really quite out of the blue.
  3. Hogan sucks. This game was over once we were down 14. It was fun to see the "come back" but realistically already over by then. Schoen looked bad (hurt) after the two-point convert. O'Shea was a **** to Derek Taylor on the post-game show. Our offence can be good. We have legit playmakers, and Collaros can still sling it.
  4. Man, we're still going on about this? We need the Bombers to sign Ontaria so we have something else to talk about.
  5. Yeah, I don't think Woli was actually released... Much speculation about nothing, lol. But I'd take him back, given the chance.
  6. What's the chance Wolitarsky is able to play next week?
  7. Definitely this. We should have left the offense out, and had a threat to pass or run. Handing off to Oliveira is probably just as good an option as a QB sneak from the 2. Just one example of a few bad play calls by Buck in this on, IMO.
  8. I think the hit should pretty clearly have been called RTP. The defender had plenty of time to stop, or try to maneuver around Collaros. I'm actually finding it a little strange how people are framing the matter of "intent" or "maliciousness", Stegall and Dunnigan included. As far as I can tell, Ealy chose to land on Collaros unnecessarily. The suggests that he did intend to hurt him, making the hit, in fact, malicious. It wasn't the most egregious hit I've ever seen, but I don't think calling it dirty is unfair. Hope he gets a suspension.
  9. I'm not stressed or worried about the team at all. And McGuire looked like garbage today.
  10. Neat, thanks for the info. Would be more appealing with a FireTV or Android app though. Thanks also. This does seem like the most straightforward option. I appreciate all the responses. If I'm being honest, I may stick to secondary sources for streams for the time being.
  11. Frustrating. I wonder if they offer the deal regularly or what...
  12. Aw shoot, yeah, that would've done the trick. When did they offer it?
  13. Anyone have any suggestions on how to stream CFL games, preferably in a legal manner? I tried signing up for ESPN+ which carries the games, but it turns out you need a cable provider with ESPN in order for the subscription to work at all. (It's also meant to by American only, but I subverted that with a VPN.) I know TSN direct exists, but it's expensive. Is it any good? Anyone have Sling or Hulu or whatever which carries ESPN and watch games that way?
  14. Do people really watch the NHL in June? Sure, if the Jets were in the Stanley Cup it'd be nuts, but who cares if the Lightning are playing the Golden Knights or whatever. Suppose the CFL season moves back three weeks, and the Grey Cup is the first weekend in November. Doesn't that mean there's only one potential week of overlap, which, in all likelihood, translates into one, maybe two CFL games? I can't see that being such a big issue. That said, I'm pretty impartial one way or the other. If the Grey Cup is in Winnipeg in November, I'll go, and not care too much about the weather. It is disappointing how the attendance drops with the temperature, however, and if there were a way to mitigate that a bit, I'd be for it.
  15. Not sure how we're still talking about Thorpe, but... Two "potentially" okay receivers is nothing to write home about! One of them straight up walked off the team which means he doesn't count as a good find, and the other (Givens) has done nothing to prove himself. Walters's track record on finding receiving talent is not good.
