Terrible call. I dont care if God is your kicker, you cannot try a 60 yarder at 3rd and 4 with 30+ seconds left

Around The League Regular Season Discussion
Bubba Zanetti replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yes please on Gurley or Hazelton or both. Our receiving corps is extremely underwhelming. Character issues aside, this could be a wake-up call for these guys and a chance to redeem themselves. Gurley was a manbeast last year. -
IMO lapo didnt help the cause with a s****y game plan from the get go. Flanders has been averaging almost 7 yards a carry over the last 2 games and he comes out chucking the ball all over the field. I would think you would want to hand it to your new found offensive weapon and keep the red hot Reilly off the field as much as possible. Not to mention lapo's good old 4 yard out on 2nd and 8 is back! Jack***

Its not the refs fault we couldnt tackle John White

Serious question: Why does Ian Wild get so much love from the universe? Lawless claims he's the Bombers best defensive player??? I just dont see it. What i do see is a guy that constantly gets his ankles broken in the open field and misses way too many tackles.
-
Front 4 simply not got enough. Westerman is not the same guy as last year, Cole is invisible, as is Shologan, and the much celebrated signing of Cummings has been a huge letdown. Then as soon as we bring more guys on the blitz Reilly dumps it over the middle for 10 yards. Me thinks Edmonton has just showed the rest of the league how to beat the Bombers.

Soft as marshmallow defence in back to back weeks now. Nichols isnt a world beater and needs a strong D behind him to be successful. Recipe for disaster going down the stretch.
-
Make that the last 5 games. The last 2 especially the D has really looked soft. Back to back games where we needed a stop by our D to win/potentially win the game and both times they've crumbled. Starting to come back to earth at the worst possible time.

Pre-Game Day Thread: Depth Chart, etc

So is Darvin Adams done for the year? Haven't heard a peep about him in weeks. -
Mother of god is Randle getting his *** handed to him. Makes you wonder if we would have been better off not rocking the DB boat and just staying with the status quo.

Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn
Bubba Zanetti replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Not saying Willy would have done this but that scenario does happen as well just like players being asked to re-structure. -
Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn
Bubba Zanetti replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Im not aware of any "smear campaign" against Drew Willy but i am aware of a fan base that was sick of losing and wallowing in QB mediocrity that had been going on here since George W began his 2nd term in office. Willy did himself no favours and played himself off the team. Blame it on whatever you want but it is what it is. -
Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn
Bubba Zanetti replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Players, especially ones on the decline or not contributing re-structure their contract to free up cap room in the NFL quite often, not so much in the CFL but the point is it happens. Also, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors. Maybe Willy was a good soldier, maybe he was a distraction, no one will know for sure. Not sure why some people need to b***h about what might have been when we got a fantastic haul out of Toronto for a benched player. And the whole poor Willy posts with the big bad bombers ruining his life, give me a break, its football, players lose their jobs everyday. Perform or be replaced. -
Bombers Trade Willy for DB TJ Heath, Acquire Kevin Glenn
Bubba Zanetti replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Do you know this for sure? Maybe behind closed doors he b**ched and sulked. Maybe he asked to be traded?? Just because he didnt say anything negative to the media doesnt mean he was a great team player. Look at Evander Kane, always saying he liked it here and didnt want to be traded, only to find out every offseason he asked for a trade. By the sounds of it, according to Lawless, Walters asked him and his agent to re-structure his contract, you know, to help the team with the cap and was told to take a long walk off a short pier. Is that being a great team guy?? The trade is a win win for both teams. Bombers get better in the short term for a player that was doing jacks**t on the bench and maybe Willy can grow a pair, stop playing scared + letting the media get to him(hinted at by Walters) and resurrect his career. -

Labour Day Classic Pre-Game Thread: Depth Chart, etc
Bubba Zanetti replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
It didnt help your cause but if the Rider D tightened up after that and didnt allow anymore yards it would have been a 53 yarder for Medlock as opposed to a 43 yarder which is no gimmie. Again, one penalty does not a game make. -

Bubba Zanetti replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Fair enough but iffy calls happen every single game. I cant even recall how many times over the last handful of years that weve been jobbed by a borderline call. Every team deals with it. Maybe Durant's brutal toss that was intercepted on our 2 decided the game, maybe he would have thrown another if he had gotten the ball back, maybe your kicker cost you the game, etc, etc. If ifs and buts were candies and nuts....1 penalty in the grand scheme of things isnt the sole reason for a loss is my point. -

Labour Day Classic Pre-Game Thread: Depth Chart, etc
Bubba Zanetti replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I dont know why i sometimes go over to riderfans after a game.....yes i do, to watch them meltdown and cannibalize each-other. But today is a whole different animal. Apparently they outplayed us all game, the refs cost them the game, their kicker cost them the game, etc, etc. One guy said the game wouldnt have even been close if their kicker made all of his kicks???? He left 7 points on the field. Unreal. Also, anyone who isnt a lemming and displays an alternate view of the game is a troll and told to f*** off. That place is like a whole other world full of likeminded, koolaid drinking, nutjob, conspiracy theorists that refuse to see the world in anything but green-colored glasses. Its quite amazing.......and frightening. After a few minutes there you begin to understand how the nazi movement swept over Germany. -

I would say Johnny Adams also had a hand in that.
