Yes it's nitpicky to start looking at things even after a W but was Sutton in on his first TD of the game after the long goal line standoff at the end of the second Q? http://cfl.ca/video/index/id/112591/autostart/true around the 3:13 mark shows Sutton only getting his foot over the line and not the ball. I know they were talking about this on TSN 1290 this morning. Was it a bad camera angle, did he actually get the ball over the line or not? I know in the end it didn't matter but if the Bombers lost this game it sure as s*** would have been a huge topic of discussion this week. I think the Bombers did a great job holding them off for so long. Would have been interesting to see if they could have held them off one more time on 3rd and 1. I know MOS wouldn't have challenged as it's an automatic review by CC but they didn't even say they were reviewing it and after a short delay went into the pt after. Did they review this or not? And what evidence does anyone see that it crossed the line.

Schedual doesn't get much easier for the Riders. BC, Ham, Edm, TO and a bye. I see them beating BC next week and getting their butts kicked by Ham and Edm. TO game might be another W. Could very well start 1-6. Although this being the CFL they could be 4-3 lol.

Willy was 20-29 for 251. Not terrific but wow those are good stats for having a concussion in all seriousness Willy looked good. Made good reads, scrambled when he had too and took some big hits. I think we can put the concussion to bed?

My bad. Feel free to flag me for starting a new thread about the flags LMAO.

Does anyone else hear the snap, crackle and pop coming from the west? First it was the smoke of all the jerseys being burned for losing to us now the sound of the fans hoping off the wagon. Can't say I'm smiling enough.

I seriously just did the same thing!!!!

BEST GAME EVER! that is all.

This is getting to a point where it's getting impossible to watch a game because of all the flags. Seriously. Last nights game was impossible to watch, the Bomber game had enough and now the Rider/BC game is getting beyond frustrating. When are the players going to pull a Tom Canada and pull the flag out of the refs pocket. How long before the fans start getting annoyed and not watching or sending the league nasty emails? I know the new rules are difficult for the players to adjust and there will be some more penalties. But what's with all the bench penalties and late calls from the refs . Just let the men play!

He's had 3 documented concussions in the CFL plus one in college. But the article I read suggested he's had many more. http://slam.canoe.com/Slam/Football/CFL/Winnipeg/2012/10/01/20247596.html This article from 2012 says anywhere from 2-6 concussions since College. 10 seems high. 4-6 is likely. May have had more or less depending what they consider a concussion. And in his playing days when they didn't really care much about them he could have had more! You would think with Buck being a coach for us now he would be one of the guys helping out in determining if Willy is A-OK to play. I think he may know a thing or 2....or 6 about these types of things 10 would be about one a year throughout his pro and college days. It's unlikely, but I bet in his time as a Bomber he had about 5 so who knows lol this kind of statement is ridiculous. He took more head shots in BC than he did as a Bomber. As a Bomber it was always other things. His elbow, his legs his shoulders. Think he is exaggerating a bit on 5. I can only remember 2 that were clear as day....The one against the Riders when they knocked his helmet off and once against TO when Brandon Isaac hit him. Both times I don't remember him being KOd though.

Brutal media coverage. As someone else said I'd rather no news then a "hey look at me I'm here but who gives a F***" tweet. For comparison sake anyone feel free to post some tweets from other teams media personal for today? Just so we can see if it's a CFL thing or a Bomber thing? I don't go to Twitter to find out Bomber news (I come here) but it's nice to flip through and catch a quick note on practice or a signing or something.

I said it before the season started and I said it after they just beat Hamilton. I don't think Calgary is as good as everyone thinks this year. They lost a lot of good players in the off season. That being said I don't think our Blue are that much improved either

Was it the Oline or is it the Gin???

Little off topic but anyone else reading the threads over at RF.com? Seems like the leagues best fans are having a hard time with this loss..... Topics like firing their new DC, Seasons done, can't win with out DD, upset about officiating.....all doom and gloom... and I kinda like it I though only we fell apart after a loss like that....

Who is Ryan Dinwiddie?

IDK. I'd take Halls conventional vanilla D and a huge W over Etchs non conventional D and a huge L.....I think Halls D will only get better.

Well you could always venture to my cavern. Completely transformed my basement and bar into a Bombers lounge complete with a 116" projection screen and a fully stocked bar. Except the gin......you bring the gin I'll supply the tonic.

I really only care about the Bomber game Saturday I would absolutely love to see the Bombers go in and just crush the Riders. Go into a place we haven't won in forever and just completely destroy them. Get the season started in a positive way and get the momentum going. Of course I don't think it'll actually happen. I think the Riders are still a pretty good team and most aren't giving them enough credit. I also don't think the Bombers are quite ready yet. Preseason games didn't show me much and I'm hoping it's just a tactic of not wanting to show off to much but I don't think it's the case. The good thing is game #1 of the season always seems to go either way and hopefully they can take advantage of it. I'd gladly take a W in any form but a sever butt kicking would be nice! Rest of the games.... RedBlacks RedWhites GreenGolds

Soooo I don't have time to read through all of this. Is the game online or on TV anywhere tonight? I have season Tix and we somehow managed to book my sons Bday for tonight and can't make the game I was hoping to PVR if it was on TV or find a stream after. If not It'll be CJOB during the bday party lmao...

Anyone know who Cameron is referring to? Dan West? I had not heard of any injury so far being more noteworthy than the rest. I believe it's Louie Richardson that's on the 6-game... Wouldn't Troy Stoudermire be out the longest?

8:30 and no announcement!!! p.s. I don't really care when they make the announcement

No bomber cuts yet?

I see Allen and/or Randle headed over to the Ticats as Grigsby is now injured! Cats not having any luck with RBs this TC! Randle maybe but why Allen? He's a LB so he doesn't help their backfield issues. Cause it's Friday and apparently I started drinking already I meant Randle and maybe Fitzgerald. I'm not sure they are looking for a FB but they need someone with legs and soon!
