I decided at 48 that getting into shape is probably a now or never kind of thing. Dropped 45 lbs since the beginning of the year and I can honestly say I haven't gone hungry. I exercise about an hour a day and weight now what I weighted in high school. A svelt 190 on a 6 foot 1 inch broad shouldered frame. Sure there are love handles, but I can live with that. The 45 missing pounds I can certainly live without!

I hear ya, I certainly get fatigued from chronic.

did iso even post in this thread? And why are you speaking on his behalf?

Really
 
People don't give a **** about acid rain until it peels the paint off their car. By that logic heavy people who don't seem to care about how it's affecting their health or the giant drain on the healthcare system where resources are needed for people that actually get legitimately sick might only care if they can’t find anything to wear.

maybe if fat people couldn't find clothes so easy they'd get to the gym and stop eating so much.

Dear Darian Durant

 

What you witnessed 1st hand on Sunday is something we've had to put up with for the last several years.

Missed blocks by O-Line, poor positioning by O-Line, and defenders just beating the O-Line.

How'd you like getting rushed so much you can't follow through on the play? 

How'd you like just throwing the ball away to prevent a sack, or running because you have to? 

Did getting knocked down bother you the 1st time, the 2nd, the 3rd.....?

How come your running back isn't helping you out?

Where are those damn receivers when you need them?

Are you thinking everybody forgot how to block all of a sudden?

That frigging Cortez, did he forget how to co-ordinate?

Your quarterbacking skills are now in question.

Welcome to our lives.

I'm not a Buck supporter, so understand where this comes from.  I have to agree with certain points that were made.  Pierce did not harm this team, not purposefully anyway (kind of like what Mr. Dee said above).  He did not force his way onto this team and force them to make him the starter.  If you want to be mad at someone or say "good riddance" at least aim it at the correct person.  Joe Mack.  He brought Buck here.  He probably (speculating considering what's happened) made Burke and LaPo start Buck over anyone else and because he signed Buck to the contract and paid him "big bucks" to come here and play, he pushed them to start him and refused to bring anyone else here to take his spot.  That's my theory anyway.  Had he allowed them to start any other less experienced QB's over Buck, Mack would have looked like a fool for bringing him in.  Hence when Mack was booted, Buck stopped being starter and started having all of these magical "injuries" that he all of a sudden had that no one would reveal.
 
So if you're going to be mad at someone, be mad at Mack for bringing him here.  He made Buck starter, and Buck tried his hardest, even if his hardest wasn't that great.  He wasn't a bad guy, and quite often he was the "face" of the Bombers during his time here, and he was pretty good at that part.  When you say good riddance to someone like that, you make it sound like it was his fault he was here or that he was some kind of a prick.  If you were in the same situation and they offered you the starting position, AS IF you're going to say "oh no...no I'm not good enough".  No one does that.
 
I'm glad he's not our QB anymore, but I still say good luck to him in his future endeavors.  And that's not sugar coating it, that's just being a decent human being.

I see this all the time on Internet discussion forums. Maybe you're too immature to realize it but when a discussion forum degenerates into name-calling just because of differing opinions it ceases to be a discussion forum. It becomes a cesspool. If that's what you want, knock yourself out, but I'll pass.

Agreed, they all played really well tonight, and that bat down by Suber was a beautiful play.
I was sitting beside a Saskatchewan fan and the guy had his face in his hands by that point, wondering what happened to his Riders. It was awesome!!!

Wait, I thought you were included in that trade.

my god you are tiring.

Even though I say it every time it comes up.
 
Can we PLEASE use these royal blue uniforms on a permanent basis?!
 
Is there anyone out there that honestly thinks THIS

 
is better than THIS

But if he cant play 3 consecutive games then wtf is the point

This is the same stupid reasoning people used to bring in Buck Pierce. 
Have people learned nothing in the last four years?

Drew Tate is the high end Italian sportscar of the CFL. Amazing performance when its working, but you don't want to be relying upon it on a daily basis, since its going to spend more time in the shop than on the road. If you buy it, you also need a second car (QB) around ready to go. I would pass.

One Pierce down one to go

Do you know what sign shop keepers used to hang on their doors when they wanted to grab a bite to eat?
 
OUT TO LUNCH
 
In this instance...you're a shop keeper.

Don't even joke about that.

I don't care what anyone says, a shitty defensive stand in the final 30 seconds vs. BC and an awful coaching decision vs. Saskatchewan cost Joey Elliott two wins. He did enough to win those football games. Did he win? No, but he had the lead with less than a minute to go in both of those games and even that is a lot more than anyone on our roster can say currently.

Higgins!

I'd rather they gave him multiple "titles" and let him grow a bit more before handing the team to him.  I want a GM who has had experience  and who has lived through rebuilding a team before....

I think this team is in such a huge mess that they need to spend money whether they have it or not in order to get this franchise back on track.  Unless, for whatever reason, they want to role the dice again on another season in order to save money.  But will they save money if people don't buy tickets?
 
I'm not saying Walters is not going to be the next big GM, but is the organization willing to chance this?  People are already screaming for blood if you listen to the post game shows and read the forums. People are tired of seeing this team lose.  Do we really want to chance another new GM?  Are we really willing to go through another season just to "try him out"?  His tryout is now, and if he fails, put him back to his old position and get someone who can turn this team around.

The Victoria Hospital and old Montcalm hotel both sell parking that doesn't require getting across Pembina with the kids.

There's lots of free street parking within 2 KM south of the stadium in Fort Richmond if you want to walk.
