Brandon got a reaction from Atomic in Ottawa Attendance WoesI lived 2 - 3 years in Ottawa... what I found is that a lot of the city has people who are purely workaholics/business oriented and they tend to focus on work and keep to themselves. A lot of people I worked with had no kids and really were not really into going out and having fun.
I remember how one radio station was trying to get a petition going to get concerts to stop by to Ottawa since they never get any of the big acts. It's amazing how much more concerts and other arts come to Winnipeg compared to Ottawa.
When I lived there during the Sens cup run the town was really big into the team.... up until they lost. I went to the airport to see the team when they came back expecting that their would be festivities and a big group of fans gathering.... their was maybe 100 people if that.
For hockey , it was mostly Leafs fans, followed by Habs fans from Gatineau and a small minority actually cared about the Sens.
The arena is good and it's not that hard to access it, my guess is that people just don't give a crap because the city is full of fair weather fans and the older more rich folks are stuck up and just don't leave the house.
Their only hope would be to be like the Redblacks and move somewhere centralized and where they can attract the younger university/college kids (the only people in town who like to have fun).

Brandon reacted to Tracker in Montreal releases Duron Carter and StaffordCarter kvetched his way out of the NFL and is probably close to doing the same in the CFL. Giant talent, giant ego, minuscule common sense.

Brandon reacted to Steve Fanitage in Lions @ Bombers Post Game DiscussionI get that it is our nature to focus in on one play because it was late in the game and the refs were involved, however the reality is football is won and lost over 60 minutes.
What caused BC to lose this game was a series of events. Maybe their downfall was Jonathan Jennings inability to protect the football, or their team not showing up until down 24-3 and not playing 4 quarters, or their players and coaches being so unprepared as to fall for 2 fakes on the same drive, or their insane decision to run east-west on third and one and the game on the line.
The refs and the breaks will always play a big part and maybe the Bombers got one. But looking at this game over 60 mins, there are many reasons why the Bombers came out ahead. Great game that could have went either way but full credit for the win.

Brandon got a reaction from ddanger in Lions @ Bombers Post Game DiscussionWho cares if Harris fumbled or not... the BC player right in the camera shot that they kept showing over and over again was blatantly face masking and pulling the lead blockers head down.
So many ticky tack calls and so many missed blatant obvious ones it was a poor game both ways.

Brandon reacted to Old Bomber Fan in Lions @ Bombers Post Game DiscussionBottom line is refs miss calls every game sometimes they are for and sometimes against you. This time it happened to be for us. Bigger concern is the last three games our defence has been unable to stop the opposition in the 4th quarter when they needed to; loss to Calgary with 24 seconds and 36 yards togetinto filed goal range; Edmonton what with less than two mins to go needed a stop to give us one last chance; and yesterday couldn't stop BC until the very last second and only because of a marvellous play by an injured Moe Leggett to be followed up by whatever you want to call it, pay back, missed call, good luck whatever were we able to squeeze out a win. Something has to be done with this defence period no if ands or buts

Brandon reacted to Mike in Bombers sign Tori Gurleynot even sure why we bothered at this point, if he was still available today it's obviously because nobody wanted him.

Brandon got a reaction from blitzmore in Around The League Regular Season DiscussionSo signing Gurley will help us with our lack of pass rush and our inability to stop BLM or Reilly?
Hazelton was so good that he lost his starting job and then was cut?

Brandon reacted to Mike in Drew WillySome of us don't boo a guy and wish bad things upon him simply because he didn't play good football for us.
Willy was a professional and a great guy in the community. I have no problem cheering for a guy like that when he's not playing us and I have no idea what goes on in the head of people who think he should be treated like the plague.
