Bombers at Lions WSF GDT
I'd never even consider that the Bombers should have tried a 61 yard FG if the Bombers didn't get the first down. I'd say 99% of the other fans would be the same. That the right play was to kick the FG? Never. Now at 58 yards with the game on the line on the last play of the game then yes it's the only play as it would have had a better chance than a Hail Mary. But not 61 yards with 36 seconds left on a third & four. The only choice was to go for it. Not kick. There's more luck involved than skill on a kick that far.

Disagree. FGs aren't normally tried from 61 yards so I don't believe the coach would have been questioned if he gambled. Thirty six seconds left on 3rd & 4 you go for it. If you don't make it then okay you tried the most logical & statistically highest percentage attempt which is to gamble & not kick. if this was the last play then yes you try the FG. That wasn't the time to do that. O'Shea should have put more faith in his offense to get that first down,

Then it got stopped. I'd have accepted it. At least we were doing the logical thing trying to win. There were 36 seconds, not 6 seconds left. The FG attempt was a stupid call.

Ultimately it DID come down to one call irrespective of the others. It was a gutless call. The season came down to an impossible FG attempt or 4 measly yards. I am having a hard time accepting the way our season was lost by a panicked O'Shea. If our O couldn't have got the yards I'd be happier to lose that way than the way we did today. At least we'd have tried.

O'Shea turtled & panicked. That's how I saw it. He got scared & made the wrong decision.

They never turned off Suitor's mic. He was just heard on TSN laughing while the Jennings interview started, "I told you we'd (BC) be going to Calgary".

No. Neither should O'Shea with that dumb decision. I'd have rather lost trying to get the first down than on a 61 yard FG attempt.

Jennings a pick, a sack & a fumble. What a great young qb says TSN.

Coach of the year finalists
Why has the CFL gone so screwy the past few years? From strange PI rules to coaches challenges to Campbell getting nominated for COTY. What has happened to the CFL??

This is sooooo flashback 1960's & 70's. Both Canada & the US were out of step then & are out of step now. But Canada was Liberal & the US Republican back then & are the same now. We had Pierre Trudeau. They had Nixon. Today, we have Justin Trudeau. They have Trump. It'll be interesting how this all plays out with our 2 countries.

For what they asked Kohlert to do he was a huge disappointment.

Would we have any interest in Franklin?
The CFL website used to have a free agent list & then would update it if a player signed elsewhere or with his team. It just would be good to know who is available & who isn't. Last season a lot of players went to free agency instead of signing with their own team.

Warren Buffet was against Keystone as he owns a number of railroads. I've read that he wanted the oil to be carried by rail to line his pockets. He was a big Obama financial supporter,

I expect the Keystone Pipeline will be built now.

Would we have any interest in Franklin?
Why do people still think he is a free agent when it has been reported by credible sources that he isn't? The CFL needs to publish a free agent list & post it on their website.

Former Als Player Goes Off On Alouettes Gong Show
I really like Marc Trestman. Having him back in the CFL would be a great thing.

Is lapolice the weak link in our offense?
I agree. I think Nichols runs LaPo's offense to a tee. He understands it & it suits his talents as a qb. It's not pretty because our Canadian receivers aren't good enough. If we upgrade at Boundary Receiver & get rid of Kohlert replacing him with someone who can actually produce we'd be 15-20% better production wise on offense. He shouldn't be replaced unless he leaves himself.
