I'm glad we have Glenn. End of comment.

Kirk Penton tweeted that Willy couldn't handle the Winnipeg media. I find that unbelievable. A guy who played NCAA FCS & has been in front of the media since high school. If he can't handle a few reporters & media personalities in Winnipeg then he has issues.

The failed third down fake was CLASSIC!!

But you keep bringing up the wins like it matters so you are putting it all on the qb whether you believe you are or not. Nichols is essentially doing the same things now Willy was. Difference is the team specifically the defense has picked up it's game a ton. Willy won when they forced a ton of turn overs too. Don't even get into the intake either. Nichols has had several poor throws dropped and even on labour day could have lost on a poor throw that they called a soft PI on. Your hate for Willy really blinds you on this topic.
But... you can't compare Nichols quick release to Willy's. Nichols gets rid of the ball quickly while Willy holds on to the ball too long & gets killed. There's an expression coaching qbs... "Trust your eyes". If you see it's open then throw it. Willy's problem is he doesn't trust his eyes. He sees open receivers but he hesitates. The tight window opens & closes fast in pro football. It's there & then it's gone. That's the difference between the 2. Willy has to overcome those doubts, trust what he sees & throw the ball. If he doesn't then his career as a player may be coming to an end.

Forget any potential trade with Argos... The Fever is back and killing the TiCats...

If the Riders want to leave the CFL I'm sure the Winnipeg High School Football League could find a place for them. They might be good enough for a playoff spot. That prospect is still sketchy though.

Not sure what ISO was drinking but this empty bottle of Captain Morgan's was definitely once full of rum.
I was gulping down that Canadian Club as the game went on. I tell ya. Hate the Riders.

1981; Alouettes stroll into Wpg Stadium with a bevy of NFL stars (Vince Ferragamo, David Overstreet, and White Shoes Johnson.)
Ralph Brock says "sorry...not today" and eviscerates them 58-2.
PS
1981 Wpg rookie of the year.....Pete Catan
Remember that game so well. My friend & I had a couple of pre game beers with some Als fans in a bar before the game that we met. Even back then, there were very few Montreal Alouettes fans across the country. They're a rare sighting now & then. We destroyed the Als that day.

Hasn't Schultz been gone all year for family reasons?
And I'm pretty sure Dunigan will be in Winnipeg calling the game... but I could be wrong.
We need to have 2 networks televising games. Competition is always the best in the long run.
-
Need Jennings to come out cold all day & Cato to have the hot hand. We'll see.
-
No Dunigan or Schultz on the panel tonjght. Gotta wonder what's going on this season.

I was at that Calgary West Semi-Final game in 1980. It dumped a big load of snow the night before so they had to scrape the field to try and get a decent surface to play on. It sure was cold that day too but luckily it was sunny so that made it bearable. And we wore onions on our belts, as was the style of the time.
The field turned to mud as the ground thawed. Brock could still throw the football that day even with bad & slippery footing.

Personally I would like to see Bob go out on the top. I don't want to see him sign something for a few years to do PBP into his early to mid 70s. He is and always has been the best PBP announcer in sports IMO but he's just starting to lose a step it feels. Little slower on the play calls and is starting to make minor errors on calls and player names numbers etc. I don't want him to start slipping and have his last few years not but what we are used to. And maybe he doesn't go that way and maybe he can call it into his 70s but I would like to see him go out before then if it does happen
Jack Wells was doing that in his prime (mistakes) & he was beloved by Bomber fans on CKY radio in the 60's.

I'm just about done rewatching Enterprise. The last season is actually decent compared to the rest. Finally getting interesting. I liked all the characters except Reed and Trip actually. Although Trip started to grow on me. The whole temporal story line was just annoying as hell. Enough with the time travel ****. This show could have been so much better and they just wrecked it.
I actually liked Enterprise a lot more than Voyager with the stupid ending after 7 seasons. And Janeway was always too preachy for me considering it was her who stranded the 2 crews in the Delta Quadrant. You'd think after 7 seasons with that woman in charge the crew of Voyager would have mutineed & replaced her with Chakotay.
Archer is an inexperienced galactic Captain flying around the the Universe for the first with a huge chip on his shoulder trying to prove to the Vulcans that humans were worthy of space travel. Soon to find out his ship is actually underpowered, with insufficient defensive capabilities & woefully inept at engaging other alien races in battle. The ongoing temporal wars got a little long in the tooth but the writing during the last 2 seasons were the best but by then they pulled the plug on the series.

His father Chris Carter was such a classy player. He mentored Randy Moss when he was an impressionable young player. Was great with fans & the media. He needs to have a strong chat with his son to get him reigned in.

Not to mention the fact of his choice of words. Sorry to have failed the test? Translation: I wish I had cheated better?
Seriously speaking, I hope he kicks the habit and becomes a role model for younger football players aspiring to be pro.
If he kicks his habit then he become what as a football player? probably nothing as being juiced got him to where is he now in the CFL. But that was dirty & not clean. Maybe all he really is, is a third string backup. There's a reason why he never stopped juicing & I'll speculate by saying it's because he knows that clean he'll never be good enough to stick around & play in the CFL. He cheated before the Combine & put up eye popping stats. Then he was discovered after the combine he cheated. Still, the CFL rewarded his cheating by drafting him. Now he's caught again. The only role model he is, is that of a cheater & a liar. Someone kids should look up to & say,"No thanks".

You know what sad about that video? How we've gone from people like Don Wittman to Rod Black. Maybe Darwin was wrong after all.
The other sad thing, production value on TSN isn't much better today. Better graphics but that's about it. Don Wittman was a total pro. He could call a chess tournament & it'd be worth watching. Black is just horrible but TSN thumbs its corporate nose at fans & brings him back every year.

Willy at one time had NFL aspirations so you have to wonder. Imagine the media in New York, Philly or San Francisco? He's be permanently sucking his thumb in the fetal position hiding under a blanket.
