  1. How can Reilly get away with a skyball like the TD right now to Mitchell? He never even saw him. Nichols does that & it's a 120 yard pick 6. I guess the old adage that winners find ways to win & losers find ways to lose is true.
  2. I have no problem with fans booing him. Like I said before, Brock was treated a lot worse & he survived. If he isn't playing well, he's fair game. The last 2 minutes was bizarre, though. The coach caused the issue & that doesn't happen often.
  3. Bad luck a couple of times cost them the WFC championship. Tevor Kennerd missing something like 3 easy FG's in 1980 & the roughing the passer penalty on John Helton in 1982 after Vince Phason had the game winning interception. Every game we played them was close. We should have beaten them twice. The Esks were good but they were also damned lucky.
  4. Lucky Wally is who he is or he'd be fired. Ed Hervey can't fire a legend. He's stuck with him & there's absolutely no way he comes back next season. I never thought this would work out well. Hervey's hands are tied by Braley.
  5. Pipkin may become a pumpkin with the orange skies. The new Halloween horror movie will be released 2 months early this year. Manziel must be so happy not to play. #Alstrainwreckneverstops
  6. Marcus Ball better go to church tomorrow & give thanks as the Football Gods were kind to him today.
  7. The jump from college to pro is huge. Especially a qb who has never played Canadian football with all its nuances like motion wider field, bigger end zones, 12 men & 3 downs instead of 4. Most college qbs have never seen the Canadian game. Even veteran NFL qbs who come up here struggle. It's a huge learning curve. Not just 10%. They can't just step on the field & be successful. I've only seen a few have success instantly. Ricky Ray, Joe Theismann & Doug Flutie come tomind. Some adjust & do well but most don't. Streveler did well at first but as he played more games his performance dropped just because he not only had to learn the playbook but adapt to all the differences between the American & Canadian game. I could see the pressure was getting to him & he was getting bogged down. The Bombers are right to bring him along slowly but O'Shea was wrong to take him out last night.
  8. Hey, the Argos are now 3-5. They won the Grey Cup last year. #elite
  9. Rod Black with the "hook & ladder then kick it to the end zone" play. Another rye & coke for the road.
  10. With a statement like that it's no wonder you are who you are.
  11. Of course you would. That's who you are since you got here.
  12. But... MOS actions made the entire situation unfold & Nichols misunderstanding the booing. The whole conversation missed the point.
  13. They were talking about the fans booing Nichols. They weren't booing Nichols. They were booing O'Shea for pulling Streveler & putting Nichols back in. As the fans weren't booing Nichols then how can they talk about the fans booing Nichols?
  14. Why is SEan Lemon coming back to play the Argos a big deal? He's played for 4 CFL teams. He was a mercenary going for the big bucks as much a teams didn't want him.
  15. They didn't **** on the fans per se but they never questioned why O'Shea put him back in. Never came up in the discussion.
  16. Too bad we could only win one GC with him as our qb.
  17. The TSN panel got the booing of Nichols all wrong. They never once questioned why he was brought back in. Instead it's either Winnipeg fans are tough but it's a great place to play or the fans are mean & it's their right to boo. No questioning Mike O'Shea for even putting Nichols back in. For so called football analysts, I expected a lot more from them than that. Question Mike O'Shea for being stupid as well & creating this commotion. Not just talk about the fans.
  18. Can TSN please stop showing Jeremiah Johnson on the BC bench? How long after a TD is scored do we have to watch him be stupid?
  19. He cracks ribs then he gets penalized. The new rules have taken Lofler out of the game completely. I never see him or hear his name anymore. Not fast enough to cover the field & be a finesse type safety..
  20. Nichols has to play better & I hope he turns it around.
  21. All I know is that Clements wife & he were lawyers. She was his agent & she represented him in talks with the Bombers. I know they went to Chicago but I guess he decided he didn't want to play anymore. I have no idea how & why he gave up his law practice to coach. Would be interesting to find out.
