  1. He will get none. At least not as a qb. He is nowhere near an NFL qb. The guy is an athlete & perhaps he could be a receiver down there.
  2. Yeah, I have no doubt he wants to go back but to have Nichols & Streveler as the same qbs next year? I dunno. Then if LaPo comes back? That'll go over like a lead balloon.
  3. I don't think we can't go back to what we had before the trade. Our qb position needs an upgrade. Streveler can't carry this team if we go back to Nichols & then he gets hurt. I have no idea what the Bombers are going to do but to have the same two qbs next year as we had at the start of the season will be a mistake. I noticed something yesterday. Whenever Collaros was looking at his device on the sidelines, he & Nichols were into what looked like some deep strategy discussions. Streveler was sitting beside them but never said a word. At times he looked away almost disinterested. But he never got involved in the conversation offering his opinion which I thought was strange. He never said a word while the other 2 were talking. I don't think he has a handle on or understands reading a defense. Although in Streveler's defense we don't know what they were looking at on the sidelines.
  4. Think of the bullet the CFL dodged. An All West Eskimos vs Riders Grey Cup in Calgary. What a disaster. Even Rider green wouldn't have saved that baby. Here we have 2 teams with a long tradition of great Grey Cups & someone will end a long drought on Sunday. I just hope it's us.
  5. It was. It bloody well was. When I wore a younger man's clothes.
  6. It's like watching Tom Clements play again. The 2 players are so similar.
  7. Here's a gem. From the 50th Grey Cup at Toronto's CNE Stadium on December 1, 1962. Better known as The Fog Bowl. Number 29 is Leo Lewis. The Bombers won 28-27 & the last 9:29 seconds were played Sunday December 2nd after the game was suspended because of thick fog. The Bombers had the one point lead when the game was halted & there was no further scoring. The 1962 season also marked the beginning of the iconic white W on our helmets.
  8. The Bomber-Ti Cat rivalry gave the CFL some of its greatest Grey Cup moments & stars of the game. I'm so happy it's our 2 teams again going at it. I'd have hated a Riders-Eskimo Grey Cup. I may not have watched.
  9. He had something like a Grade 9 education. I don't think he finished high school so I don't think he understood why people got upset. That being said, partisanship is a fact of life on social media. Cherry was a known Conservative supporter so there were a lot of people who wanted to take him out & destroy his career. I really think rather than racism, it was really him acting like a tough guy & reinforcing his brand.
  10. She certainly left her mark on a lot of people. RIP.
  11. Happy for you!! Congrats. Some really great Grey Cups were played between our 2 teams. Legends were born.
  12. Despite our win that was maybe the worst game called by LaPo this season. We all saw it. His playcalling nearly cost us the game. I agree he kept taking out Collaros, Strev kept failing on 1 st down, then ZC had to go in on second & long & save the drive. It wasn't working yet he stubbornly stayed with it. It was crazy especially in the last couple of minutes when we needed to keep the ball & run out the clock.
  13. Rose picked that pass off, returned it & Shaq Evans clubbed him on top of the helmet as he was being tackled. No flag.
  14. What's the point of RPO if Streveler keeps the ball everytime. he has to give it to Harris at least 50% of the time.
  15. I'm just numb right now. I don't think this win has sunk in yet.
