    Really??  You gonna start that crap? that in a nutshell is why many actually avoid this site.  You can't just leave it as being happy there are two sites for fans to discuss our favorite team??

    are you sure you don't have some rider fan lineage running through your body cause that is what I expect out of them.

    The other site is heavily influenced by a handful of thin skinned posters.  They make that place look more like the riders site.  

    This place is much more mature overall,  and ran much more fair in my opinion.  

     

  2. Let's go Bombers !  Entertain the crap out of us today...win.....and give this board another week to cheer for !

    I would also like to take a minute to thank everyone who posts here,   I feel I learn a little more about the team from everybody who posts here.   I also appreciated being able to vent here awhile back while going through a tough time...... thanks.

     

    AGAIN GO BOMBERS.....KICK SOME Axx !

    I'm not getting too hyped. It's the playoffs. It's the Bombers. It's the Stamps. It's at McMahon. Seen this show before. I hope they win but I won't be in a 2 month depression & spoil Xmas for me if they don't.  Believe me, I've been there in the past. 

    I thought you posted somewhere you wanted to see the Bombers hoist the cup before it's  too late for you

    And if they don't sell out, clearly, it's all because of the player/coach awards.  It would have nothing at all to do with the weather.   Welcome back to the ignore list...

    The weather ?...... since when did the Canadian football fan become so soft that a bit of snow would keep them away ?..... and it's  the best time to drink beers outdoors, they never go cold !..... ....

    So might I suggest that instead of framing your thought as a question, you simply state your opinion?  Something like "they should wait until the season is over to start any awards".

    That way it could be explained to you that these awards are for the regular season and that by doing it this way, they can add some buzz to the week preceding the Grey Cup, instead of afterwards when all the players and coaches have gone home and fewer fans will care.

     

    I think,  especially this year,  it is taking away from the playoff buzz more than anything.  

    And I have learned after twenty years of internet posting that an opinion can get you in way more trouble than a question....

    The reason they didn't vote for him was that they didn't vote for him.  It had nothing to do with stats or value to the team.  It was a personal decision.  You can't fix that except by removing their right to vote, or by making the rules crystal clear as to when someone becoming ineligible for consideration.

    If it is 100% a fact they did it as a personal decision only......wouldn't that go against some kind journalistic code ?   And as fans is there not something we as a group could do to out these morally corrupt journalists ?

    No, that’s how this siht started. 
    The vote, as is, doesn’t take into account the work that a professional like Medlock does in trying new kicking techniques, and drops, and angles, and spins to get the ball to bounce close to the 5 yard and bounce back towards the kicker. That’s no accident, it’s Medlock. 
    And the cross field kicks inside the 20 yard line, inside the hash marks, is practice and technique. It’s not just kicking the siht out the ball and hoping. 
    But who looks at these aspects really? Coaches for sure and ST guys, but not the voters. 

     

    Hey I totally hear you about taking other things into account when judging a players season.  But isn't that what cost Harris his nomination.
