    So... He knew about stuff but didnt report it? Or he participated in it? Cuz if its the first one... Thats a tough situation... Im sure we have all seen illegal things and never reported them...  Thats a tough one. If he participated in it... **** off and die. 

    I dunno tho. Not sure he should be allowed here either way. But to anyone saying there's no difference between not repirting it and doing it himself... Umm yeah there is. 

    You need to read up on what actually happened. This isn't like  noticing someone swipe an Eat More from a Husky station. He was alleged to be complicit in a cover up of what was a pretty serious sexual assault problem among the athletes that he was responsible for.

    challenges definitely existed in 07... I specifically remember Austin challenging a spot and they actually won it... then Berry took a stupid delay of game penalty buy "challenging the challenge" ... I don't recall the circumstances of this particular INT, whether we were out of challenges or didn't throw the flag in time, or didn't notice, etc...

    All turnovers are reviewed automatically now, though, which would have helped.

  3. Unfortunately, with the way the Riders are playing, combined with the Labour Day factor, I think the Bombers getting wrecked on Sunday is a near certainty. I would put my money on a Rider blowout Sunday, and a Bomber squeaker in the Banjo Bowl. The Riders defence is good enough to keep it close in the latter, and the Bombers defence bad enough to get destroyed in the former.

    I do feel bad for you. As a fan, I personally experienced 3 Grey Cup wins in 84, 88 & 90. The 84 victory was the sweetest win I have ever experienced.  Seeing what the Bombers have been through since, I really cherish those memories. I've been alive long enough to remember the Bud Grant era  but I was just a kid. I was 7 when the Bombers won in 1962. Didn't understand or followed the game at that age though so I didn't care. Hopefully for you Jud, the wait won't be much longer. 

    Whenever someone bites a stalk of celery I get flashbacks to Kevin Glenn's wrist breaking. I still wake up in a cold sweat yelling "Run Dinwiddie! For God sakes, just run!".

    You guys can call it a bad play call if you want..you're entitled...because it didn't work.  I see it no different than a run up the middle that gets stuffed, or a long fade in the end zone that's too far, or for that matter, any play that didn't work. You're putting forward the belief that any other play call had a better chance of working. And that's a possibility, but not a guarantee. The very next play showed what could happen...a sack.

    That play was specifically designed for that spot on the field, and it was called because the same play worked perfectly last year when it was tried. Was it still a bad call then?

    To me, it was simply a call that didn't work, nothing more, nothing less.

    Any play where the QB plays QB and the receiver plays receiver automatically has a better chance of working. The trick play is the kind of thing you run where the offence has struggled and you magically find yourself in scoring range and in need of a momentum swing. When your starters are dominating the way they did on that drive, you keep riding them.

    I almost hated the play where they kept Lefevour in after a 2nd (3rd?) and short even more. They have tried that a bunch of times this season and it has almost always been stopped for little or no gain, largely because the defense knows he isn't going to throw the ball. As soon as he stayed in I said to my wife, "Oh great, let's watch Lefevour run for 2 yards and kill all the momentum we had on this drive".  Sure enough... 

    Nichols was the hot hand. Stop trying to be so damn cute.
