The Riders are really kicking ass

Second most productive offence in the league and they rarely turn the ball over. Sometimes the plays don't work, but usually they do. I understand the frustration with Lapo sometimes but overall I think we're on the right track.

I'd like to leapfrog the Lions here but I hate seeing the Riders win.... so.... go Lions.

There's a great thread over at riderfans right now about some of their posters seeing the players and coaching staff out getting loaded last night (they play tonight).

That's correct, he did both. He was head coach when the Sens went to the Cup final in '07.

If he was a starter he would be starting. MOS likes to play word games with the media but Thomas rotates in, he does not start, he is a rotational player. And I love Jake Thomas. But that's just reality.

What's that? Like the Adams TD?

Shout out to Brian Walker playing great at HB and getting his first CFL interception

You're right. Thank you. @Rich

Emmanuel Davis was set to come back and play HB for the first time this season but he has food poisoning. Terrence Frederick will start in his place.

There are problems with posting tweets. I used to be able to post a link and it would automatically embed the tweet. https://twitter.com/EdTaitWFC/status/896501442952912896 That is no longer happening.

Steph has put her body on the line too.... And I don't think we've seen her since!

Ekakatie is inactive tonight

I'm not sure Ricky Ray belongs with those other 3 names either

Lions, confirmed http://3downnation.com/2017/08/12/bombers-canadian-ol-decides-stay-lions-attempt-get/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+JustinDunk3downnation+(3+Down+Nation-Justin+Dunk+) Offensive lineman Qadr Spooner turned down the B.C. Lions in order to stay in Winnipeg. The Lions tried to claim the 25-year-old off the practice roster, but he stayed with the Bombers for loyalty reasons. Winnipeg drafted Spooner and have a plan for his development, plus the coaches there are high on him. Spooner measures six-foot-four, 309 pounds and brings a nasty, relentless playing style to the field – a trait Mike O’Shea covets. Winnipeg felt fortunate to land him in the second round, 15th overall in the 2017 CFL draft. He was a conference all-star coming out of McGill University. Winnipeg has Matthias Goossen (starting centre), Sukh Chungh (starting right guard), Patrick Neufeld (backup tackle or guard), and Michael Couture (backup centre) on the roster, which has allowed the Bombers the luxury of time to teach Spooner the pro nuances. Then when he gets on the gameday roster he’ll be properly prepared and ready.

He is one of the all-time greats, IMO

There was a period of time when Calvillo, Ray, and Burris were the elite QBs in the CFL.

What? I like Nichols.

Well we're not getting that any time soon. We are likely stuck with Trudeau until he decides it's time for him to leave.

If anyone deserves it, it's him. He's been one of the best DE's in the league for almost a decade.

He is 14-5 since taking over from Drew Willy but he was 2-5 for Winnipeg in 2015 (5-2 with Edmonton). His career record is 21-12.

Lol well yes I hope that decision never happens but it doesn't matter if it's Trump, Obama, or Abe Lincoln, if the decision for a US prez is Winnipeg vs Chicago, they're taking Chicago. We can be our own country but military might is not cheap. If we have a big brother who wants to protect us from the rest of the world, I think we're right to rely on them. With only ~35 million people, we're never going to be able to defend the second largest country in the world. We need the US and they need us.

I believe his record is 21-12 with a 59:38 TD:INT ratio.

Holy **** BB take it easy man
