Banjo Bowl was a defensive gem. The D only gave up 9 points.

I didn’t have a problem with the way the D played against Calgary. They are trending up, anyone can see that.

I don’t where all this OL bashing is coming from. You can’t find a better OL, depth included, than the Bombers came out training camp with.

32 - 23 = 9 points given up by the D yesterday.

I go there because they can be relied upon to have blue licorice ice cream

I agree with most of what you're saying, especially about after school hours. But yes, there had been some issues with kids being hit by cars. I guess if you don't know, then you don't know. I shared one in a post further up. Enforcement by police and better education both cost extra money - which is exactly why neither of them will happen Budgets and the almighty buck always come before better ways of doing things. I was happy to see this change, because I knew it was the only change we were going to see. And yes, I have been ticketed in one of those 30 km/h zones. I was going to another school for Professional Development, there were no kids in class all across the province on that day. It sucked, but that's life, and it only happened once.

You make this sound like it's a black and white issue - it's not. I agree that it is a cash grab, but it also forces people to slow down. You'll never find an issue that isn't about the money - because there aren't any.

Hmmm interesting.

Ok fine, but ^^ is a lousy example.

Comparison: 2017 Ti-Cats / 2018 Bombers
Burris used to make those throws. Some got picked, but he definitely made them.

That’s not true of every school. They are all public spaces and many of those play structures get used regularly all summer.

That is true around some schools - fair point.

Crossover Standings after Week 12
We’ll have a good indicator when all three teams have played the same number of games, which will be the week after Banjo Bowl.

Eskimos @ Stamps
I think most of us remember the play we used to get from our backups, which still makes us uneasy. But I think Streveler is different and has a better team around him than those guys ever had.

Eskimos @ Stamps
Ho boy, that really takes me back. Joey 'the ego' Elliott - could only make completions against zone coverage.

Eskimos @ Stamps
First their D held Reilly & Co. to a field goal. It's more than likely that Nichols would have needed a TD to win that game - just way things roll 'round these parts.

How many of those are with the short yardage unit?

Way back when I was doing a student teaching practicum...one of the children got clipped by a rear view mirror - broke her wrist. It was completely stupid and unnecessary. So yep, just slow the heck down.

Argos @ Tiger-Cats
I am not sold on Trevor Harris. In the Ottawa vs. Montreal game last week, he did nothing, possession after possession. Well, other than rattle off long snap counts.

Eskimos @ Stamps
Reilly throwing deep less & running an actual offence.

First, this an excellent OL. Yesterday aside, they have protected the QB as well as can be expected. And the QB does have some weapons at his disposal, especially in the running and short passing game. There's nothing wrong with Darvin Adams for deep shots either. No, I would not anoint Streveler as the starter, but I think he should get more opportunities.
