  1. yeah it would have been nice to get one bye week in the first half and one in the second. But I guess if I had to pick what half to have both in...it would be the 2nd half of the season.
  2. I think Bryant made it past the cut off and is paid to the end of the year whether he plays or not. Assuming it's true he's playing next game, then his statline in the Banjo Bowl better read 11 rec 125 yds 3 tds. No pressure Romby. shiiit he'd be lucky to get that if he played every game for the rest of the year!
  3. why is everyone surprised by Grisgby? He's done very well considering what has been asked of him. Cornish????? He's played what 3 games now. why should he be picked? I'm also surprised by no one picking Randle or Johnson and how anyone beat Hajrullahu is beyond me.
  4. found it...but take it for what it's worth from Arash madani: Reading the tea leaves, if present #Argos ownership/leadership continues, my belief is Scott Milanovich won't return as head coach. #CFL
  5. I thought I read somewhere that he wasn't going to be taking another contract in TO....I'll try to find the link
  6. LOL Lawless = clueless clown mr. obvious over here... Captain Obvious? no captains on this boat!!!
  7. LOL Lawless = clueless clown mr. obvious over here...
  8. I don't know about "worked ok"....3 first downs in the first half was it? Sure we won...but know what worked better than ok?.....the last time we wore the royal blues.
  9. Our run defense has a hard time with Big powerful backs. We've been able to control the small shifty ones.
  10. The FP just said Kromah will be starting and Kuale is out.
  11. I'm pulling for Kromah. If he can't beat out Kuale then it may be curtains. I prefer drapes or blinds. bed sheets hung by a nail
  12. Also have you seen cgy's helmets? Very nice
  13. Can someone post the pic on here? Twitter is blocked at my work
  14. it's a bomber forum. We're here to talk about bomber stuff. Something just happened today that involved the bombers...so we're talking about it. It's just that most people share the same opinion. Nobody (ok maybe one) is talking about being forced to do anything. We're just talking about how crappy they are. On a forum about the bombers. I don't come here to talk about my day. I come here to talk about the bombers, some days that includes what I had for dinner at the game, others that includes sharing memories of old games/plays. Today it happens to be about crappy uniforms.
  15. They aren't as bad as I thought they were going to be...that's not saying much though. Like has been said, the lack of gold doesn't make sense and they are really boring uniforms. "bold and innovative" right? Wasn't that what they were going for? How does this accomplish that? And like others have asked who gave the ok on these? As for the royals blues...Speaking for myself, I know they won't be used as a main jersey. But that doesn't stop me from wanting that....In the same way I know I can't get a fighter jet from pepsi even if I save enough pepsi points....but I still want one and will complain about it whenever possible....stupid pepsi.
  16. He sold his house in Regina in the offseason and his girlfriend now lives with him. Unless she has a piano tied to her arse she can move with him elsewhere in the CFL. You are probably right that he ends up back in Regina, but it won't be the no-brainer you think it is. There are 2 teams who have already confirmed they will be throwing their hat in the ring on Dressler. (Ottawa and Toronto)...wouldn't surprise me if there are more. It never ceases to amaze me how Rider fans seem to think there team and city is some kind of Shangri-La that players would never consider leaving elsewhere for. Heard the same tripe about Andy Fantuz, Craig Butler, etc etc. Taman will need to break out the cheque book in a big way for Dressler, if he doesn't he will lose him to someone else. Unfortunately for the RIders that probably handcuffs them if Sheets comes back or in renegotiating new contracts for guys like Chick, TBrack etc. before FA. Taman may be considered a hero now over there, but they are about to find out that his long term SMS strategy is not fundamentally sound. So how would Toronto be able to offer any more money than Sask? They have just as many big names to 're-sign'... would think Sask has the advantage in that people actually show up to their games. What does attendance have to do with anything? Are you aware of what Toronto's cap situation is, or are you just rambling? The Riders have been documented by several media sources as being very tight to the cap presently. Haven't heard that about Toronto. The fact that their media is reporting that Toronto has strong interest in Dressler leads me to believe that they either have the cap room to offer him a big contract, or they are willing to make cap room for him. Off the books for the Riders this season: Simon Anderson Mike McCullough Shologan Butler Rey Williams Taman has the money to re-sign Dressler and there is little to no doubt that he will. Anybody thinking otherwise is just wishful thinking. He's "front office staff" now right....there's no carry over from the year before....that's not what's happening....nooooo....

That's not how the cap works
  18. They could have done a better job. There are jerseys out there that are refreshing and new and push the boundaries without matching the colors of another team in the same damn league. You can attract new young fans and please the ones you already have. This one while it may attract a couple new fans, will turn most hardcore fans off. It could have been a very good money grab...like I'm assuming BC's are...if they were done even remotely well. Sure I may be jumping the gun on the entire look being garbage...but those helmets....just so bad.
  19. It's about being bold and pushing envelops. Probably trying to attract younger fans too. cough *cashgrab* cough cough
  20. I've been saying it since the beginning of the season, and it applies to more teams than just the bombers. When teams figure out to use big Slot rec. and big running backs defenses will struggle because they have gotten small and fast across the league. We are particularly small with our linebackers, and teams are starting to realize that. I'll be surprised if Ford is the starter against us when labour day hits.
  21. If the PI that was called last night after Mil through the challenge flag, then it should have been called against Kelly. I was thinking at the time, and I think others said the same, that OSH should have tossed the challenge flag for that one. The ref's need to be more consistent. I couldn't believe he didn't throw it for that play. From here on out if I'm a hc and there's an incomplete pass downfield with any sort of contact I'm throwing the flag. Might as well.
  22. grisby had like a 9 yard average or something....he didn't get it done cause he didn't get the ball.
  23. He was limping off the field last game. I remember watching him get looked at on the trainers table. and then trying to run on the sideline.
