  1. and he's an NFL fan? Like the NFL games don't have real dull stretches in them? The NFL is all hype and less substance. Sure the CFL players aren't as good but the game is less rigid and prone to more crazy **** happening.
  2. Look in every game there are breaks and mistakes that happen to both teams. The winning team is the team that capitalises on the key ones. Bombers did that against Hamilton and there is no need to diminish it. If we are diminishing engine because one team made too many mistakes then the bombers opponents have a lot less legit wins.
  3. You aren't looking at the good and bad though. You are looking only at the breaks the bombers caught. Ticats caught a break on the missed field goal and subsequent td they got from it. They got a break on another touchdown where they had receivers so offside even rod black saw it but it wasn't flagged. Those two things right there are the only reason the game was close. You like to claim objectivity but it's really not. It's just focussing on the negatives and is every bit as bad as only focussing on positives
  4. We had a good ol for a brief bit when berry was here but it didn't last long
  5. yeah the slants if done well are damned hard to stop, especially if you use a bigger receiver to do it. Screwing around with lateral motion behind the LOS though just drives me bonkers.
  6. it's bend but don't break. Don't allow anything over the top and make the other team complete a lot of passes in order to move the ball. These guys can't really cover all that well so they are cheating deep and will risk getting burned short than deep.
  7. It is one of the best ones. Just about anything from 2001 is golden and 2002 had a pile of great stuff as well. The fact that those teams didn't win one Grey Cup is a real shame cause there are some great players from that era.
  8. For a guy as small as he was a he was a tough little bugger too. Rarely stopped on first contact and just fought tooth and nail for every inch.
  9. Yeah Bob is a ******* legend. Just a real pro who is great at his job.
  10. I think it's just a case of too many young guys. A lot easier to work one in at a time but having to play 2 of them is tough, especially when a veteran guy gets hurt and you need to make a 3rd change.
  11. You know for all the good the D did I still have concerns about them. The coverage is so soft. Masoli was panicked a few times by pressure and made poor throws but a more calm veteran might make them pay, that's what BLM did in Calgary last week. Really need to see them tighten up on the back end. Offense showed some real progress though, especially considering that Hamilton has a pretty stout defence.
  12. It's a team game, the turnovers on their own don't win the game without some help from the offense. Yeah they coulda been better in the redzone, but they controlled the ball, moved it and garnered some momentum for the team and scored enough points to actually get the win.
  13. It won the game... How is that not purposeful?
  14. I don't know why people are dismissing the dink and dunk offense. Ricky Ray used to rape us with dink and dunk. Hamilton likes to blitz hard and it's worked against willy for years. This game we had them chasing the play for a change and i will not complain about that at all.
  15. You are forgetting one thing in your reasoning. Saskatchewan sucks.
  16. Except that Mack was hired to be the GM and he had a president of the team above him while Miller is simply the president of the team. If you want to compare someone to Mack the guy right now is Walters. Yeah there might have been a few alternate titles thrown around with Mack but let's be serious here, Mack was the GM, Miller is the president and Walters is the GM, completely not comparable positions.
  17. Hey if you're going to look like absolute crap the best time to do it is at the beginning of the season because then there is lots of time to work in fixing it. Better than looking terrible at the end of the season.
  18. Try reading it a third time and maybe this time you will understand what he says cause I think you've missed the point entirely based on this paragraph here.
  19. I already cracked a beer cause I was pretty sober last week so I can't make that mistake again.
  20. Duron Carter is always talking ****. It's just what he does.
  21. come on everyone, it's a new week, be positive, we can totally win this one then we all be like:
  22. but if we don't feed the trolls who would we argue with?
  23. Do you know what your problem is? It's the dialogue part. You aren't interested in having one. If you were you would read what people wrote and respond to that, instead you are creating talking points and sticking to them even if no one else is saying that. The thing about message boards is that someone is always going to call you out on your opinion. Always. So you better be prepared to defend you position. What you want though is for peopel to just agree with you that everything is horrible and we must have blood!
  24. yeah the Hamilton D gives our offense fits traditionally. Hopefully the D comes out pissed off and angry about last week and generates some good things for the team because they'll need it.
