  5. Week (7) of E(l)ks at Bombers

    in Blue Bomber Discussion

    Posted

    Lemon's last season was a statistical anomaly, and it's likely that teams are  hesitant to bring him in this year after reviewing his tape and when considering his age and his price. It's unlikely he'll replicate last year's performance in a different situation, he benefited from moments of opportunity.

    I love a Blue Bomber gameday more than anything in the world. It's a burst of excitement that fills me up with delight, a thrilling Red River Ex carnival ride that rarely disappoints and keeps you on your toes, and a community celebration that brings friends and family together. Gameday is my vice, my fix, my favorite day of the week. I can't wait until kick off this evening. Go Blue!

    ......it was short lived ....I know we wouldn't/didn't get that kind of consideration....especially after the Cup loss....There was a lot of teams relishing in our defeat......especially in the province next door to the west......I have a long memory when it comes down to those things .....but I like to think we can be bigger than that bull$hit sometimes

    Some people are fans of the Bombers without being fans of the sport or League. I don't get it myself.

    Bob's victory celebration made me smile as a fan of the sport and league

    The Wil isn’t going to significantly improve our run defence. It’s the same run fits no matter who is at wil. Though I have no doubt 50% kyrie is a marked improvement at wil. He makes better decisions and reads the plays way better. He isn’t going to put him self out of position and get washed out. 
     Until we have a nose who can be on the field for nearly every run play, we will be gambling on getting dbs to fill gaps. If they start deep, or get pushed off or read the play wrong over run the angle or just get run over we will get gashed. If we keep our dbs back anticipating a pass and get a run we will likely get gashed. 

    Insightful, I thank you. I suppose the loss of stove and Sayles hurt more than Wilson it seems. With the resurgence of the DT positional importance down south (Jones, Donald, etc), i would hope we'd continue to audition new American DTs in season and put pressure on Walker to become our dominant Nose tackle, he hasn't impressed.

    Aside from the yard of the ball, what other challenges do American defensive tackles have adapting to the Canadian Hand

    yeah PFF ranked the MTL oline #1 on a week they gave up like 6 or 7 sacks.

    Not one to defend PFF and their mysterious performance criteria, but Mr. Fajardo has the quick release of a stoned Galapagos tortoise and has exhibits a tendency to hold the onto ball longer than her Majesty The Queen clinged to the British Throne. He will always make his Oline look worse than they are. He'd get sacked behind a brick wall covered in razor wire before he there the ball.

    if father time Larry Dean can come back from it and play good or better than ever...with a shiiity Rider environment...Kyrie will....ans not sure if many know...but Wilson was an elite track athlete as well in College...he will be more than fine...plus there is nothing out there he hasnt seen as well...making his return to the lineup seamless

    Alas, Kyrie Wilson is not Larry Dean, and it would be illogical to draw major conclusions from Dean's recovery from an Achilles injury. Banking on Wilson's impactful return in the immediate future would be an unwise decision. While I do wish for Wilson to have a seamless recovery and be prepared to perform exceptionally well, I am not putting all my eggs in that basket. We need a plan B for shoring up our run stop

    I've lost interest; I'm too old for internet arguments and finding the right chatgpt prompt is tiring 😉.

    I actually read an article about him recently.  He recently moved to a seniors place in the Village and has started poetry reading nights for the residents so seems like he's doing well.

    After reading the article and Morris' quotes, I totally get it and find the comparison very humorous, haha. Just so you know, I'm not the same person, and I've got no standing issues with Lyle Bauer. He was long gone before I started getting into Bomber fandom. Long Live Wade Miller.

    Calling me “intellectually bankrupt” would be an ad hominem attack. 

    So here we are. 
     

    Quite honestly I do not care what this guy thinks - I’ve never seen him say anything interesting or insightful.
     

     

     

    Fascinating perspective. Feel free to reach out when you finally grasp the basic concepts of player substitutions 😂

    As someone else suggested, it appears someone is using ChatGPT to post with that account.

    Not suggesting anything, but a certain user also returned after a long hiatus upon this user's debut.

    Lol. Who? This website is quite peculiar and insular, except for a handful of exceptionally insightful contributors.

    It's only ad hominem if you consider being called "weird" an attack.

    I personally don't, but It's evident that Geebrr intended it as an assault on my character.

    Embracing the peculiar is truly marvelous, while conforming to normality can stifle the essence of art, culture, and individuality.

    I’m not sure why you don’t understand what i’m asking. You keep telling me your opinion on it and how you think we should be using it. I don’t care 
     

    I want to know what lessor player is being subbed out to get these on the field. So - I’m lead to believe you don’t know and are guessing. 
     


     

     

    In my opinion, JuranBoldenRules has been exceptionally clear, and I comprehend his message completely. I'm perplexed as to what you find unclear and what you're attempting to inquire about. It's a simple roster swap.
