do or die

Real good teams don't beat themselves......

I post during the first few hours, after yet another tough loss.....but then I am made of sterner stuff......damn O+S burdens me with obligation.....

Taman pumpin in that fresh blood.... Riders robbed Peter (for home grey cup year ).....now they have to pay Paul.....

Progress is being made.....but mentally, things need to get shaper.

For the Riders...tough deal to be built to "win now".....and yet not win.

First the 18 year drought.....and now this current one. At this stage, taking any sort of satisfaction in a "moral victory"....is immoral.

This team is 2-2 and has improved in some areas. The overall effort and intensity is good....... But the Bombers just have to be sharper at the mental aspect, as a team...period. Completely falling apart against Hamilton, when Willy went down.....and blowing the winnable game against the Stamps, with a myriad of mistakes....might suggest we have some ways to go. The game against the Esks, is going to tell us quite a bit, about where we really are......

Well our kicker and kick returner were supposed to be strengths, going into this game.....

Bottom line......we let a perfectly winnable game go down the tubes, though some pretty dumb football....also considering the Hamilton game, mentally, this team has a ways to go....

After a Bomber victory.....goodly amount of gin..... After this sort of a loss....copious amount of gin.... Consistency is the key....

I stick around for wins, as well....

Funny, in the other post you call those who pointed out the mistakes of the Bombers trolls who "only ooze out from under the bridge after a loss to bash everything", but this is a good synopsis? Double standard much? Well. I will plump, for the latter.....

Special teams flat out lost us this game.....

Leave curling out of this. It's a grand game! Not if those guys got involved....

Stamps were actually ripe for the picking.......but we are not good enough yet

Actually the late punt return was worse than the fumble.......3 kick return fundamentals blown - let the ball bounce, run sideways wasting time and lose yardage......

Team is still a work in progress ....2-2 is probably about right

Bombers waste no time breaking their TD slump.... ...as Willy bombs away to Denmark, 75 yd TD Then Cotton and Stamp penalties set up another TD... 16-0 Blue..early.....with all the momentum.... Tipping point...Stoudermire runs backwards in a circle.... ...and fumbles, to set up first Stamp TD Bombers follow up with having a punt block for another TD ...lead and momentum long gone.... at the half: Bombers 16 - er, Bombers 16 Cornish complains to coaches...about his 4 carries in the half Then proceeds to run about 70 yds in a 107 yd TD drive.... MLB is mostly MIA... 4 games in, you would think that Hurl ...would of made one big play... Bomber DTs didn't help...still not getting enough there D, Adams had his coming out party...with 80 yd TD Demond Washington had a real strong game... Bomber run game....mostly MIA Canadian receivers....MIA A few busts with Willy and the receivers.... Special teams were a travesty from start to finish: ...fumbled punt return....blocked punt for TD.....KO mishandled for single ....2 missed FGs, and a HUGE extra point missed (yet another)...... How can a MOS coached team be this bad on ST's? Late showing of last minute rocky Bomber horror show...... ...as Bombers waste time, then take a delay of game...... ...to lose the down and chance to get closer for GW field goal H then missed the 52 yarder..might of been improper hold... Blue get the needed stop...... ....but simply horrible punt return with 35 sec left..... ..as Stoudermire lets ball bounce, loses time running sideways... ...and loses yardage.... Willy promptly throws clinching INT... Stamps had guys injured all over the place ....and a OL held together by chewing gum.. ...and a passing attack, that struggles at times Good teams take advantage of this..... But Bombers just not good enough yet.... DOD just not enough gin yet

Washington had a pretty good game..... Hurl hasn't made a single impact play as a MLB in 4 games.... The QB has the ability to snap the ball on time, or call a time out - Willy did neither..... Bass makes plays and is out of position on some others.....

How the hell can a MOS team be so inept on special teams? looks bad on Mike

CC...winning over the press, at least....

Why didn't McCallum get to handle the short kick?

The "New Regressive"

Two guys fighting for bonuses.....in the end zone....

I'm in favor...of getting the ball into Stoudermire's hands....any which way....
