I'll start things off with a vote for Marve this week...

MOS on why Marve is 3rd on the chart (via Wpg FP): "The fans see great excitement (in Marve) and moving the ball, especially with his feet. We’d like (Marve) to wait the extra second and make that throw if it’s open. And he sees that himself... He still has some growth."

You know what was the single biggest thing that scared me last night? This is one of the first times I can remember a MOS team looking totally flat and having no energy. At no point in that game last night did I feel like we were in it, or had a chance. Hamilton dictated play and it felt like we were just out there going through motions. That's not the MOS way and I don't care to see it ever again.

3rd Kicker would be either Rifles or Bisons Kicker....

fyp.

Most concerning thing is Willy and the 1s on O looked less than sharp. Re: Richards, team already said Upper Body Injury, but please do keep crying about lack of info or misinformation....

Ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly..........

This is not filling me with hope for next Saturday....

Gotta think the Bombers are really unhappy with what appears to have been an awful 1st half. Ugly, ugly, ugly....

MOS figures they could start as many as 10 if need be....

Got the day off work to glad hand at a charity golf tourney today, then home just in time for kickoff. Gonna be a good'n... #GameDayWeAllPlay

It is possible that their plan @ #4 has been Jordan Yantz all along and that the battle for a QB position has been between Marve and Portis. That's a possibility I guess. It appears that Janz will dress on Friday night. With Willie getting the first half, that leaves little time for the others to battle it out, and virtually no time for Janz. I'm thinking if he doesn't play, then he will either be cut or put on the PR if there's room.Aside from assigning him a different name to throw off the opposing teams, I can see the Bombers following the traditional path and releasing the Canadian QB (Yantz) because...well what's the point, right?But the Bombers and Walters/O'Shea are working a little differently than others we've seen and I can dare to dream. You know I feel that these guys are different. My daughter used to work in the stadium kitchen and O'Shea asked her how the players treated her at the buffet lines. He explained to her that how the players treat staff tells a lot about players. (my daughter says that eating meat is usually on the players mind). The previous coach she never saw. That's a really neat story, for sure...and shows a lot about MOS. On the other end of the spectrum, I've heard of at least one business-side staffer who's quit because of Wade, fwiw....

This thread is starting to reek of another "It's cool to be cheap because we're Winnipeggers!" thing.......

The only thing that gives me pause and makes me wonder if they'd keep Yantz is that Walters/MOS have a major jones-ing for NIs. If they could start an entire roster of Canadians, they'd do it, just to prove a point. Hell, their talk today of starting 9 NIs possible, terrifies me...

You've hated Patrick Neufeld for years! Just yesterday you tried to bash his head in with a pipe!

I'm not saying I agree, and I'm pretty sure I'll get flamed for even passing it along, but I saw something on Twitter the other day where Steve Morley was saying "...When he's healthy, Patrick Neufeld is one of the best OL in the entire league, period..." So...there's something to be said for having the respect of your peers....

This probably could've just been in the Depth Chart thread without commanding its own, no?

Getting Chiarot for less than 1mm seems like a really good value to me. That guy showed some ability down the stretch and in the playoffs. Nice get, Chevy...

Glad to hear it's a WWC-related thing and not something to do with IGF, in general...

We do know -- they're not....now, back to the politics...

I've got my GC tix, but the various events seem pricey. We shall see. Definitely want to get to TD Manitoba, and maybe the CFLPA Party...

Comedy geek, I got the FREE buddy voucher tickets, but have already offered them out to another party. And no, I'm not charging them money for a ticket I got FOR FREE. However, if they fall through, I'd be happy to offer them up to you as I have no need for the extra tickets myself (using my own 2). I'll know by day's end if they are committing to them or not, so I'll p.m. you if the tickets open up. Appreciate it either way! Send me a pm, and I'll take care of you. Now that's service! Now ... to create a thread asking for free Grey Cup Festival event tickets. Curious what people's thoughts are on the price of those tix.....for the concerts etc...

Again, I've been (relatively) poor....but I certainly would never admit it. The thing is, there's this whole "Winnipeggers are proud to be cheap and always looking for a deal" thing that I've never understood. I can't even fathom that mentality of always looking for a discount.

I have never understood how it can be socially acceptable to say "I'm poor" ....I mean, I've been relatively poor when I was in my early 20s, but I can't think of anything more embarrassing to actually admit in public. Honestly. If you can't afford something, then keep quiet about it, but to out-and-out beg for something and say "I'm poor, give me something free or drastically discounted..." ?? I can't imagine something worse... Not much different than publicly calling someone out on a forum. If you don't like what he has to say or is asking for, keep quiet about it and move on to the next post. So here's how I know you don't know me....
