Remember what happened the last time Winnipeg lost to an eastern team they shoulda beat? Bounced back and dominated BC until garbage time when BC got meaningless yards and points.

you like an offense that pulls a disappearing act as often as this one does? Here's a controversial opinion for ya, you put a gun to my head and make me choose between Lapo and Hall I'm keeping Hall ahead of Lapo. -

I am sure Lapo is high on the list, but does Lapo want to go into that mess? I doubt it. He's gonna try and pick his spot. It's a shame that he still blames others for his failures as head coach, but whatever, I am resigned to the fact that we're stuck with him. -
Worth remembering the only way a loss to BC means we need a win in Calgary to host a playoff game is if the Esks beat Calgary this week, and if that's the case then suddenly Calgary is on a 2 game losing skid and aren't as insurmountable an obstacle as they might seem.

Fire Richie Hall !!!! DISGRACE COACH
17to85 replied to USABomberfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
your entire doom and gloom sentiments are just as much hyperbole. Of course teams like Hamilton have gotten noticeably better as the season has gone on, they were playing like one of the worst teams ever, there was nowhere to go but up, but the Bombers have been playing at a pretty high level for the past couple seasons, there's not as much room above them to show huge gains. -
Fire Richie Hall !!!! DISGRACE COACH

At worst the Bombers are the same as last year but have a great chance to do better, in both regular season record and playoffs, get over this stupid ******* idea you have the the Bombers are coming apart at the seams and everyone else is playing amazing football. -
Fire Richie Hall !!!! DISGRACE COACH

They are 11 and 5, and even with all those issues had a chance to win that game without the offense being amazing. Things are not nearly as dire as you think they are. The team has weaknesses, every team in the league does, but they find ways to win or have chances to win, can't expect much more than that. -
Or he's realized that opportunities are not as abundant as he thought and he's had to humble himself. Which if he'd done in the first place would have worked out better. That's the way it goes though. Sometimes guys have to make that mistake to learn about life.

Fire Richie Hall !!!! DISGRACE COACH
17to85 replied to USABomberfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
They lost by 1 point in a game where the kicker missed 2 kicks that should have been routine for him.... Not even holding their own? They played like **** and the Argos still needed a missed kick to win that game so get ****** with the doom and gloom ****. -

Bombers handled both the esks and lions without a lot of problems already this month. Not overly concerned. -

Yes, prior to them being eliminated they were the team that concerned me the most about putting on a good playoff performance. -

All the defense blaming yet if not for an int returned to the one the game doesn't have a chance to be lost on a missed kick. The D was bad but don't forgive the O either. They had flurries of good play then long stretches of doing jack ****. -
Riders didn't do a god damned thing in that game. Stamps handed it to them. BLM playing like he had a stroke or something. That team is definitely showing cracks and they can be had.
-
If Wild isn't ready to be even the backup then he shouldn't be on the roster, if he's going on the roster though Knox should be the guy coming off because having the ability to rotate Nevis and Johnson at DT makes far more difference than rotating linebackers will. I like O'Shea a lot, but playing silly buggers with the defensive tackles is a mistake.
-
I thought the Bombers already clinched a spot?
-
They better ******* not sit one of Poop or Nevis again. After seeing how both of them being on the roster befuddled the BC offense how do you not keep on keeping on with that?

Guy could very easily be the MODP in the league. He's just such a good player.

If we'd still had Thorpe on the roster everyone would be picking the Bombers to win. Just sayin' -

No that's not true, The Bombers are the only team with weaknesses in their lineup, every other team is loaded 3 deep at all positions with allstar calibre players. ******* Walters can't even build a team. SMH -
My biggest memory of that guy is half assing a play on Labour Day I think it was leading to an interception and Khari Jones just giving it to him on the sidelines. Man you gotta **** up some kinda bad to make a guy like Khari angry.

Adams gone for rest of regular season
17to85 replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
And further more, there is much ado about nothing with regards to the offense not accomplishing a lot vs. BC. It's classic Lapo when the D gets you a big lead. Just play it safe and don't **** up let the D win. Saw that all the time when he was head coach here, he hasn't changed. -

That guy loves nothing more than attention good or bad, he's always going to need to be spouting off about something on social media. -

BLM is a pretty sizeable douchebag himself so not surprising. -
This is really what it is. Lankford and Thorpe weren't ever competing for the same spot. Lankford is the speed guy that Lapo loves to have but never really uses, Thorpe and Flanders were the guys in direct competition, so did the team make the wrong choice? Flanders did a hell of a lot of good for this team before getting hurt. Thorpe just needed to check his ego and be patient and then when opportunity came around done enough to make it impossible to take him out. Guy quit so **** him. Next man up.
