34 needs to finish that block, that Rourke draw started off as a real nice looking play with a lane all the way to the first down
-
kicking three there was not a great call, I don't think, but we'll see how this plays out.

Crunch time for the green. Rourke starting to roll.

Riders' secondary did not take their Ritalin this morning...
these conference final games have not been track meets but they've been tense and enjoyable to watch.

BC's defence starting to regress to their squishy form of midseason.

I am seriously missing something about Alexander... (Maybe that says something about me...??) What is he doing that people are getting mad about?
right before his hamstring re-injury he made a nice solo run for a first down in the red zone ... and he clowned it up on the sidelines, making big eating spaghetti eating motions at the crowd. Then he got hurt on the next play. Felt a little like karma and hubris.
In conclusion, needs to turn his Madden cinematics down about 25% and I bet he doesn't finish the game next week.

the prestigious MBB poll voted decisively in favour of Montreal.
Would be interesting to see how the MBB predictions fare against the cfl.ca ones...

I don't necessarily think it's as bad as all that. Needs some significant tweaks but they're not like they were when oshea started.
The trouble is that we're old at positions that are difficult to recruit for. Our best OL is ancient. Our best Canadian receiver -- our best receiver period -- is on the wrong side of 30 and has had significant injuries two out of the past three years. Our best Canadian OL, Neuf, will be 37 next season.
worst of all, Zach is 37 and he is probably our best option at QB next year. Who else is out there? Taylor Powell might be a good FA signing, but he's been moldering on the bench for two years now. Maybe Brown could come home in a trade?
I'm not in a position to judge our pipeline but it seems like our pipeline will need to do some good work or we're going to drop from the middle tier of the CFL to the bottom tier next year.

I enjoy montreal a lot too even though the stadium isnt great.
the stadium is kind of small time but damn is it a fine place to watch a game on a summer night. Love the setting up on the mountain with the campus buildings wrapping around the stadium. Absolutely gorgeous scenery. Need to get back there someday.

sucks that the Bombers aren't in it, but have to say this is a compelling CFL playoff bracket with four legit finalists.
Am rooting for a BC vs. Montreal final, I think that'll be the best hope for a classic grey cup starring two great young QBs .... but will settle for anyone but the riders.

What am I to do?
decide on a word worse than "suck" and use it for the Riders.

Poor clock management on Calgary's last drive gave BC an opportunity to win and they took it.
yup. again, bad situational awareness on VAJ's part, throwing low-percentage endzone bombs that stopped the clock twice while they were in FG range. You can put this loss on him.
Dude is massively talented but does not play in reality.
-
Just catching up on the game now ... that was the most VAJ play possible on the final play of the second half. Dude runs around and extends the play with eight seconds left in the half. Brutal situational awareness. Just like when he got hurt earlier in the season, diving forward for what wasn't going to be a first down.

Totally because I am in that kind of mood, Is tomorrow a game like 2008, when we lost to Edmonton in the ESF 29-21 and Berry got fired? Is it going to be bad like 96, when Edmonton kicked our ass and Cal Murphy got fired? With this roster, it feels like we're going to lose, possibly badly tomorrow. I'm honestly wondering what comes after.
my brain says 2008, but my heart is hoping for 1988.
We had zero business winning it all in 1988, we had a popgun offence that came alive to beat Hamilton in the snow, and then we shocked the fat and happy first-place Argos, and then Bob Cameron and Mike Gray and the weather gods said "Not today, Lions" and somehow we were the champs.
Regardless of the outcome tomorrow, I very much doubt we'll see an involuntary coaching change, even though I'm starting to feel like Osh has run his course.

Yeah, JLo had a beast mode for sure -- was hoping he would stick around and be a long-time bomber but alas.
tho I might have blue-colored glasses for the guy because he made one of my top ten favorite Bomber plays.

that would have been a first down if the BC lead blocker had finished his block. Rourke had a lane all the way to the first down.
