Odds and Sods - Game 9 - Bombers at Montreal
Things looking good out of the gate....no Rod Black.... Cole picks off Glenn...sets up Medlock 47 yd FG.... Derrick Jones perfect punt block....but Blue settle for FG... MOS wins INT challenge...but Medlock trots out again... More turnovers, but Bombers only up 9-0 Bomber O not going vertical....mostly flats and hashmarks.... Bomber D sagging against the run.... Als come back with back to back TD drives...14-9 Als Not many touches for Harris...so far.... Nichols throwing a bunch of wayward passes.... Bombers O leaving way too much points on field... Blue rookie receivers looking like rooks.... Way too many off the ball penalties.... Moe Leggett steps in front of Thick Nick.... ...and strolls 50 yds for INT touchdown.... Plenty of plays left on field....but Blue up 18-15 at half... Both teams fall into total stupor... in scoreless 3rd quarter... Ton-O-Flags...real dumb penalties by both sides.... MOS passed on 2 potential Medlock tries.... Why do both teams run that shotgun, in short yds? Both teams D's....taking over the game..... Medlock goes 5-5 and puts Blue up 22-18.... Down to field position....in the stretch.... Lapo figures out that Harris should get more rock.. Bombers get ball deep in their end, with 5 min left..... Nichols is hitting passes now....rooks are catching them.... Big Boy Bond totally sells roughing penalty on Bowman... ....Als outrage results in another 15..... Harris busts outside on draw play..... ...and walks into end zone.... ...putting the cap on clutch 95 yd drive.. 29-18..as Black would say...Goodnight Montreal! Loffler gets window dressing interception, next series.... Then Bass pulls down the curtain, with yet ANOTHER pick Stated that this turnover rate was unsustainable..... Well, news travels slowly in ole Blue dressing room... ...as Bombers have 6 more turnovers .... ......and hold ALs to ZERO pts. in 2nd half.... Not an artistic success.....but 4th straight win Spilled all over my shirtfront....but enjoyed the gin....

3 stars plus HH
1. Harris. Yeah, the fumbles....but the more he gets the rock, the better this O works. Tough, max effort player...and making the tough plays in crunch time 2. Medlock Guy is on total autopilot - 20 straight FG. We get inside opponent 55 yd line - automatic 3. Someone needs to remind MOS of this. 3. Multiple Tie Loffler - guy is around the ball and consistently pops people. is this dude really a rook? Leggett - not many LBs are a quick pick 6 threat. Had number 3 at a key time, tonight. Bass-Wild - like a pair of energizer batteries, they just keep going and going.

Riders @ Esks
I could of scored that last TD. Riders D is horrid.

Why do people seem to be so unhappy with Orridge?
Why do people seem to be so unhappy with Orridge? Because of the arbitrary and high-handed way he has dealt with the CFL flagship franchise.... Ok, seriously....it is probably the officiating and the replay/challenges business.....which has rendered some games, almost un-watchable.

Question about Rod Pederson vs other media
Read Pederson's latest opus.....where he continues to nuzzle up to Jones....but describes the firing of Taman as "a mistake" What a hack.

Thank you, admin/mods
If people could just figure out how to exchange opinions and views.....without getting into a almighty twist, all the time.....a lot of problems, round here... would simply go away...

John Chiles Released
"prospects" is the key word here.....

Bombers @ Alouettes
This is part of the improved depth and roster flexibility. Getting rid of Picard and subtracting guys who should be backups - Neufeld, Macho, Hurl....and replace them with actual starting quality players....has played a big part in the overall improvement round here.

John Chiles Released
Mayo also had a good game against the TigerCats.....

Hard to justify picking up a guy.... for 3 minutes

Thank you, admin/mods
Btw... Taman and Chamblin each got a 4 year extension, after the cup win in 2013. That takes us to the end of 2017.

Question about Rod Pederson vs other media
As far as guys who cover the ole home team Bob Irving is simply a pro. Others are not.

Bombers add DE Eric Martin.
High energy dude, looks like he can also do the ST thing. How about ILB?
- Riders fined another 5 grand

Willy for Durant?
Hell, we'll throw in Pavelec....

Is It Real?
After a few more gulps, last night.....have concluded that there are far worse things.....than arguing about how the Bombers are winning football games.... Carry on.
