    I was referring to the PI call on Hollins at the 57:10 mark of this video: 

    Awful, awful call.

    You can also clearly see Harris' elbow going down ahead of the goal line at the 1:55:30 mark. 

    The refs have been VERY friendly toward the Bombers this year, sorry to break it to ya folks.

    The fact that you say "clearly" makes you lose all credibility. How anyone can watch that video and say anything but inconclusive is beyond me.

    And I've been whining about this since last night LMAO. But Durant should have had a 15 yard penalty in the 3rd for taking his helmet off after being sacked. He got sacked, ripped his helmet off got up and started whining to the ref.

    Then could you explain to me (and I'm not being facetious) what you think the reporter is doing there?  Who exactly is he representing?  Because to me, if he asks questions and then writes about them for public consumption he is, de facto, representing those of us who cannot ask direct questions to coaches, politicians and others of power.  

    In Paul's case he represents the paper, and his only duty is to sell more of them. He writes this crap because it gets a reaction. He all but admitted last week in a column that he doesn't bother writing stuff anymore that he knows won't get as many page views.

    That Patti blog was actually about last week's trash article. Hilariously, this week's is even worse!

    And I'm not sure if people are familiar with Patti, but she is formerly Pat Doyle, who used to regularly bring the snark when writing for...the Sun I think? It is no surprise that she would defend Wiecek because her shtick was similar back in the day.

    Thought this deserved its own thread, because his article this morning is beyond explanation. For those without a subscription, here is a synopsis:

    Mike O'Shea never takes responsibility for anything, is the most hated coach in Winnipeg sports history (more hated than Kelly, Burke or Berry), and is the sole reason we have 25K at our games instead of 32K.

    And I didn't even exaggerate any of those points! What a complete and utter tool bag.

    I think it might be time to save $30/month.

  15. Bombers @ Lions: Game Day Thread (07/21/17)

    in Blue Bomber Discussion

    It's to the point where big leads actually make me angry, because all I can think about is how many ways they will find to blow it. And they do!

    I long to cheer for a team where I can actually enjoy when my team plays well because there is a reasonable expectation that it will continue for the whole game.

    I turned the game off after the brand dead fake. Writing was on the wall.

    This franchise is exhausting to cheer for.

  19. Single ticket question

    in Blue Bomber Discussion

    Posted

    While acknowledging the possibility that I made this up entirely, I swear last season Ticketmaster let me choose seats on the map for single Bomber tickets. This year, I only get to choose a price level. Anyone know if/why this changed? Kind of annoying because I would rather be in a higher row, and now I either need to call or head down to the Bomber office.

    I will also admit that typing this post already likely took more time than it would have taken to call.
