3 stars plus hh first pre season game.
SpeedFlex27 replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
SPuDS is talking big picture here when he speaks about patience. Things will sort themselves out as they always do. Yes, it's true that players have to show what they can do with limited opportunities & some will get more chances than others. Lawler & some of the new receivers, for example. -
3 stars plus hh first pre season game.
SpeedFlex27 replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
The first pre season game is akin to a regular season game being played at 6 am. Half the players seemed asleep at the switch. With all the subs going in & out everything was out of sync. It can only get better offensively. I want to see Lawler come down with some footballs as well. He has one more chance. -
I thought the Lapointe group was under capitalized? Looks like someone pissed off the Dragon's Den Guzzo guy. Have no idea when they want to sell the team they'd give him a hard time unless he was a prick himself to deal with. I also heard Stephen Bronfman want to buy the team. He's also trying to bring MLB back to Montreal so I don't know here the Als would fit in with that.

Odds and Sods - 2019 X Game - Edmonton at Winnipeg
SpeedFlex27 replied to do or die's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
If Hardrick can carry Schrot on his shoulders he must be very close to coming back. -
I remember when TSN used to brag about sellouts at Molson Stadium. They'd get 20,000 & suddenly the fans there are just the best. With TSN, it's the same bullshit with the fanbase in Saskatchewan.

GDT Pre-season Game 1 - Edmonton at Bombers
SpeedFlex27 replied to Floyd's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I doubt if Petermann will be cut. Simonise could be but more likely a PR spot.. -

As a player he didn't have to worry about it. Old habits die hard. -

Who said that? Accuracy can be taught. -
I know. After months of winter, April snowstorms & now we can't enjoy spring.

Calgary: Smoke from forest fires in Northern Alberta this morning. If air quality does not improve during the day the Stamps-Riders game this evening may be postponed. Gotta say, the air quality sucks. Some people are really struggling to breathe.

What is wrong with the guy? Don't forget Hervey is the player who took off his helmet & swung it at a Stamps players back in the mid 2000's during a Labour Day game.

We'll need another thread to discuss. -
The MBB All-Time Blue Bomber Team: Quarterback
SpeedFlex27 replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
One thing I will say that both guys wouldn't have been satisfied to play together at qb for a decade. One would have eventually left. It worked out well for Ploen & the Bombers. -
The MBB All-Time Blue Bomber Team: Quarterback
SpeedFlex27 replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Jim Van Pelt was drafted into the US military in 1960. Spent a 3 year hitch in the Air Force. When he got out the Bombers tried to re-sign him. He & his wife were the Bombers special guests at the 1962 Grey Cup in Toronto. Ultimately Van Pelt decided to turn down the Bomber contract offer & went into private business in Chicago. In 1959, Van Pelt separated his shoulder in the Western Final series & it was Ken Ploen who quarterbacked the Bombers to their Grey Cup win in 1959. Looking at the records though, he certainly was a great qb when he played. I agree that he should have been on the list & was a major oversight by all of us. -

So, with the season about to start maybe it's time to reopen the debate. Of course, we'll need a separate thread for that.
