When there's no pressure on Mitchell & he can sign a ball every time he throws means the secondary gets lit up. And they did.

Yep. That's the way the ball bounces.

I agree our D was shockingly bad. Letting Kieric Wheatfall go?? That looks like a stupid move now. Liam Dobson playing Center in Hamilton yet we let him walk as well. Some of the personnel decisions Walters & Osh made are real head scratchers. No, you're right. The offense was on point passing wise. Running wise, the OL has to open the holes for Oliveira & they couldn't. The defense?? We think our secondry is our strong point but to me they look weak. Our DL is better than last year but still no pressure on Mitchell. So, I don't know what the coaches are going to do to change things up next week. . In his defense, who designed the offense & called the plays?

Our defense did not play well. Coukldn't stop the run. Mitchell stood straight up all game with little or no pressure. To me, that was a huge reason we lost. Mitchell has a quick release but our secondary looked like swiss cheese all night. We needed to rough him up & we didn't. Secondary looked confused all night.

The fans deserve better??? They lost by 10 points. They weren't blown out. Collaros put up nearly 400 yards passing. And we deserve more? Our defense needs a lot of work. You're just a spoiled fan.

I was a brand new head coach of my oldest son's pee wee team in 1998. My youngest Tyler was only 8 at the time & not playing any sports yet. We played another team in our league & beat them 108-0 in an exhibition game before the season. Even our worst players were scoring touchdowns on them. I was quite troubled during & after the game as some of my coaches saw blood. I didn't have the coaching experience or confidence to tell these guys to cool it like I should have. And would have done years later. I lost control of the bench. I phoned that team's head coach that night & apologized profusely. I vowed I'd never let that happen again & it never did. Luckily, the other head coach knew I was sincere & never made a formal complaint. That's what happens when the egos of adults mess with kids sport. If that would have been a league game, I'd have been up schitt creek with the Pee Wee League. I learned a valuable lesson that day.

Skeeters will be out in a week or so once it warms up. We got 5 inches of rain here in Calgary over a 3 day period 2 weekends ago. Stavely, AB got 10 inches of rain, though.

The guy was obviously qualified (although not authorized) to fly as a Captain. He never crashed a plane during his career & was trained on 3 different Boeing aircraft. He may have circumvented but he appears to have had a spotless 17 year career. Judging by the number of grim looking officials at that news conference, it looks like they're planning on nailing him to the wall with a long jail sentence trying to make an example of him which to me is a waste of time. I don't condone what he did but I think based on his safety record a large financial penalty in the area of $150,000 is the way to punish him. After all, he earned over $3 million in his career so I think that is appropriate. Not jail time. What I'd like to know is why he did what he did. He obviously had the skills to fly & be a Captain. So, why did he fake it?

Hopefully the game sells out even if it rains. Looking forward to watching in my living room warm & dry in Calgary.

That's when it's time to turn off your phone.

Wanna-B-FanboyMembers1 hour ago Hey @Ja Apeman 72, who is Wanna Be Fan boy? 😁

Rich, I was looking for my picks. I can't remember if I made them. Since i can't see the choices, I assume that I already did.

I'm going to pick Tommy Stevens.

I'll be at the Alumni table before the game. Looking forward to it.

Chevy keeps insisting this is how you build a team through the draft. We'll see if he snoozes thru this one as well.

I like the Loon. But I can't vote.

I'll be in for the Banjo Bowl after missing last season due to a family conflict on that date.

Please. That's not even a bit funny.

Do I have zero or 1 strike? I don't see my name. This time I know Tommy Stevens is playing so I'll go with him.

If both parties want to make a deal then the Jets trade up.

Everybody would take Mack.

The Grey Cup this season is on November 15th in Calgary. Next year it will be a week earlier.

Midpoint of November will mean a week after the GC is played. Cold weather isn't really an issue. I still say that fans will sit in cold or bad weather if there is something on thre line late in the season. They sure won't early when there are still 17 games left.
