I don’t mind them leaving Harris off but it’s pretty ironic that the long snapper they voted for was also busted for PEDs this season.
That's messed up. I mean really, really messed up.
My opinion is that the "cheaters" should be ineligible for awards and for all-star selection.
However.... that is not what the rules are. Winnipeg writers got on their high and mighty horses and decided to vote for what they think is ethically correct as opposed to the actual criteria for the awards and selections. As the awards criteria is written, it's a farce that Harris wasn't nominated for top CDN and MOP for the Bombers as well as clearly should have been the RB all star.
What an even further farce now that someone in the exact same boat made the all star team. I'm an Ambrosie fan, but this is incredibly embarrassing for the league.

I lose respect for both.
Milt is the one blaming others 15 years later.
Own it
You're off your rocker man. Milt is owning it. He's also saying a bunch of players took it for granted and didn't prep properly for the game. For some inexplicable reason you want Milt to come out and say:
"Even though I spent every minute of my life being the best football player I could, it's my fault grown @ss adults decided to smoke, not work out and party before the game. In fact, I should have stayed up all night bar hoping to see if anyone was out late partying and told them 'Milt says get to bed'. "

As a team leader, Milt should have done what he needed to do to get his team focused.
He can't just distance himself from it. Comments over the years from guys I considered leaders on previous teams have been very telling/disappointing as to their contribution to the drought.
The leaders on this team...no concerns
Couldn't disagree more, that's a horribly unfair comment. He can absolutely distance himself from it.
You have no idea what those teams were like (neither do I). Roberts for example, smoked and didn't work out. BTW he was STILL one the best RB of all time. You're telling me a guy like that is going to "listen" to Milt telling him to go to bed early and put in some extra film study?

According to Dave D, prior to our 2nd last game of the season. "You don't trade for a guy like Zach at the deadline unless you're intending to use him".
I don't think it's the injury, I think the play would have had to improve for him to keep the starter job. Play had been slipping.

Looks like the old site is up and running, and looking just like it did prior to the meltdown.

If it was they wore their whites 😲😲😲😲
Confirmed!!
"Interestingly, only the 1970 Montreal Alouettes have won the cup for the East while finishing third, while the Western third place team had never won the cup prior to 1989, when Saskatchewan won it. BC has won it twice after finishing third, first in 1994, and again in 2000. Also in 2000, the BC Lions became the first team to win the cup after posting a losing record in the Regular Season with an 8-10 record. Somewhat surprisingly, the Calgary Stampeders repeated the feat in 2001. In 2005, the Edmonton Eskimos became the third (fourth?) Western team to win the cup while finishing third, defeating the Montreal Alouettes 38-35 in overtime in possibly the greatest Grey Cup game ever!"

FYI the last 7 winners wore their home uniforms.
The last team to win in their away was Montreal in 2010 in Edmonton.
Not sure why we are not wearing our blues.
Ok mr smartie pants, when is the last time a 3rd place team won 2 road games and then the GC? Wasn't it like EDM in 2005 or something.
2019 BB beating the odds already just getting this far my friends.

Absolutely. Lapo has to get even more creative if they're gonna try trick plays with Streveler. It became very obvious what they were doing and Saskatchewan keyed in on it very fast.
HAM also has a very athletic Defensive front, just like the Riders. That played in to the lack of success with what the BB tried.
-
Riders need a healthy Fajardo, they can't win a ground and pound against us. "Just stop the run" was the mantra more than one of them said when Strev was the QB. It's a little more complex than that defensively for them now.

The official forum went down last year in week 1 of the playoffs as well. Wonder if the issue is related?

Same here, can't get on the other forum so signed up here. Anyone else remember that the official BB forum also went down at the end of the regular season last year?
couldnt get on in the few says leading up to the game in Regina last fall.
107th GREY CUP - Tiger-Cats @ Blue Bombers

I've been trying to cheer myself up about how badly we lost both times we played HAM. Then I remembered... Hecht was safety in those games. Could't tackle or cover in game #1, and it was much much worse in game #2 as he got beat like a rented mule on deep passes all game.
I think that may have actually been the game that sealed his demotion. See everyone SEE it'g going to be better Sunday!
