Georgia is turning purple they got a long way to go to become blue, Walker got over 1.6 m votes
Can someone explain to me how an idiot with obvious mental deficiencies and questionable behaviour gets 49.1% of the vote when the other option was Warnock? Is that divide as fundamentally ****** up as it seems?

The Argos are yapping about how physical they are.
I’ve never heard any other team call them physical, conversely we get called it all the time.
Reality check coming in 3 daysAn alligator would be jealous of those gator arms on that receiver. Suicide pass too.

Who else thinks the wild card in all this discussion is Ellingson?-Not much being said about him, but he's back, healthy, big and physical, has a connection with Collaros, and was leading the league before being injured.

Swaggerville was fun while it lasted. Too bad they crapped the bed in the Grey Cup, but c'est la vie.
Fun little Swaggerville bit-
My daughter was dubbed "Little Miss Swaggerville" by the Winnipeg Sun. We went to the Bomber Store before Labour day, to pick up a shirt, my 4 year old in her Bomber cheerleader outfit. The players could see her coming up in line, and when she finally got there all the players were so happy to see her, joking that they were waiting for her. Odell Willis spent about 10 minutes joking with her, making the whole crowd laugh.
Yeah they crapped the bed with that bravado, but one of my best Bomber memories. Still have the photo framed in my basement printed from the Sun, along with they ball and shirt they all signed..

3DN power rankings:
3. B.C. Lions (3)
Laugh it up Bombers fans, you can decisively claim the season series over the Lions. But the only thing that mattered league-wide in Week 21 was that Nathan Rourke is back on the field and looks just like he did before the injury, altering the playoff outlook for everyone.
That’s the difference- we only laughed at your clownish behaviour 2 weeks ago. We would beat you 3/3 (or 4/4) times with- or without Rourke.
Come get your ass kicked again. Also, couldn’t agree more. Rourke looked exactly like he did against us earlier this year- ineffective and confused.
And those receivers are going to grow T-rex arms when they remember those hits from the defense this week, and how they're going to feel when it's even colder.

Geez that was a nice cross body throw with some zip

Bombers definitely look like a team not aging for anything

Again, you let the player and the medical team go through the re-hab process.
I do not believe at all that we will see Rourke. But I wouldn't force him to go home if the doctor's say he's ready to throw a ball to see how he will physically react.
I think the Tua situation in the NFL should make all athletics re-evaluate this. Campbell's talking like he's gonna see some some game action. No way he should be coming back to game action this early from any medical opinion I've read or heard.

Democrats are going to **** themselves calling Herschel Walker Senator, polls have him virtually tied with Warnock.
What a great way to illustrate how ****** up the US is right now. No matter how much negative **** comes out about Walker, he's still neck and neck. Party lines are so drawn it doesn't actually matter who or what kind of person they are, or what they stand for, or whether you can even trust them to tell the truth.

That will never happen, not even the slightest chance... everyone understands
I gotta stop going to RF for shits and giggles, but my favorite comment was that the BB should sign him and cut Jake Thomas.
a) the BB culture is never gonna take a guy like that in (maybe just to get him in a room alone)
b) Jake is a national, Marino is a sub par american
c) So out of touch with what culture means to a team.

curious thought.... BLM has been on record saying he wants to finish his career in Calgary... If Cgy mgmt goes to him in the offseason and says Maier is our guy going forward but we'd love to have you on as a back up at, let's say 200k... dose Bo go for it or does he decide to play somewhere else for starters money?... He could probably get paid like a starter in Toronto, Ottawa, or even Sask or Hamilton
I think it'll be a lot like Andrew Harris . If he still wants to play, it'll have to be as the star attraction and not a back up or rotational role. I don't think they willingly take that cut or reduced role. Not often players make the final decision on their careers, it's teams making the decisions for them, and father time remains undefeated in football careers.

In their defense... at least they did something about it for once... instead of just sweeping it under the rug, like they normally do...
I think it's more a fact they threw a borderline player under the bus. they won't do anything to most players, in fact protect them- looking at you Duke and Marino - but a guy that has played a couple of games on specials gets suspended. Then they can say, " Ooh look we actually did something about our shitty culture"
If they cared at all, they would have come right away and given some information on what actually happened instead of all this silence and speculation. When Lawler got nailed, the Bombers came out right away with what happened in a direct manner.

man, even at 9-1 bye weeks are miserable.
while we're talking about controversial topics, here's some news from Spokane about Matt Nichols' life after football. He mentions wanting to sign a one-day contract to retire as a Bomber but it didn't work out.
https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2022/aug/15/ex-eastern-washington-qb-matt-nichols-quietly-step/
I think that the org should honor Nichols -- he's definitely not ring of honor material but he was instrumental in turning around the program and I don't think we are a Grey Cup team without the wins and growing pains of 2016 - 2018.
Read this as well, and couldn't agree more.
He was such a big factor in the turn around- I'm not sure the rationale for not resigning him for one day when he requested it. He didn't leave on bad terms with the team.
Bombers- make it happen!
