That BC Lions team looks scary ,especially on O.

Good situation......veteran starter, backed up by a young guy with real potential. 

It's been well documented that I'm strictly a lurker these days, but I just wanted to mention that having this ****** canoe and iHeart (the single worst poster on this website) on "ignore" is basically the only way I can even come here to read. Thank Christ and everything holy for the ignore function......alright. I'm out.

Right.  Both teams would be 9 - 9 and Edmonton would have the season series. 
But if we beat Calgary and go to 10-7, Edmonton is out, because BC has already clinched and Edmonton can finish 9-9 at best.

It's legal in Canada now, not new. Those who smoked before, will continue. Just means they're buying it from a store and paying taxes rather than from dealers and gangs. 

It just means that more of us Canucks now give a hoot.

There could be room for Canadians on the OL - if some could move over to tackle. 

Randle sure seems to still be a lock down corner lately...  he's got some pretty good chemistry with Sayles 

Man are you spinning to fit your narrative, and this post just shows how biased you are on Nichols.  
It was a great play.  When a QB and receiver hook up to make a play like that, let them celebrate however they want.  Was a great play, was great to see the team and Nichols pumped to do it. 

If someone can post the tweet that’d be nifty. Huge deal, signed through 2020

Lot of Rider talk about that one being a "nothing" and a "garbage" game.  This could be considered some sort of deflection or excuse. 
But upon further reflection....... they are right. 
Riders brought nothing..... and looked like garbage. 
 
 

No you're missing my point - the announced attendance was about 26,000 people, that's how many seats they sold. In terms of actual people at the game, I would be surprised if it was 17,000.

Him and Hughes were a non factor. Our 2 tackles owned them. Was at the game ,was a treat to watch that domination.

It suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure was!! Blanked.

I think we outdrew Calgary & Edmonton today plus all 4 Eastern teams. The league would be ecstatic if 26,000 showed up at BMO Field.

Gaitor has done nothing but make plays and be solid since he came back I gotta say..great pick up

If this is not posted on the rider board yet you should go be the first.....

Bighill is an absolute monster. No way we’d be this dominate on defence without him.

Go Green & White - "I hope in the off-season we go get Strevler. He has the heart of a Rider."

HH for me goes to Sara Orlesky for having the thankless job of interviewing asshat Chris Jones at half time.

I’m going to give some credit to Mike O’Shea.
The decision to substitute players for the 4th quarter was an important step for O’Shea. It was a must.
When Streveler went in, it was a learning experience. He threw that pick to the sidelines. This was the time to make that mistake..when you’re up by big points, not when #1 QB goes down and you’re pressed into action. Right there, Streveler found out you can’t casually throw that ball to the sidelines. He had to bullet it there. Now he knows. He won’t be doing that again. 
Streveler found out by playing. There’s no other way.
 

Cold, cold wind...up in the ole upper deck....
ZC throws to Moore, Bighill strips ball out.....
….right into the arms of Gaitor...untouched down sideline for 6
Bighill in on a lot of tackles early.....
Bomber O sputtering in this 1st quarter....
Until Nichols play actions.....then throws long ball....
….drops it into Adams, in stride....75 yds clear sailing....
Only play on O..... and Bombers are up 14-0.
Bomber D closing on receivers and making sure tackles.....
Medlock with some nice punting...ST's with good coverage....
Collaros completing some balls.....but not going through reads....
Lots of jaw-jaw between Blue receivers and Rider D.....
Loffler actually looks like centerfielder....as he picks off bad ZC throw, deep
Couple of Harris runs.....gets it to Rider 15.....
Naturally we get an incomplete pass, then a sack...
Medlock pops 30 yd FG....Bombers 17-0...
For his size...Sayles does some thumping out there.....
Hall still running lots of blitz packages, again....
Collaros getting pressured....and looking shaky....
Thompkins catches for FD....Harris runs for another 9...
Streveler on 2nd and short …rears up and throws down the middle...
...where only Dressler can get it....with a nice diving catch in the end zone...
30 yd TD. 24-0.  Turning into nightmare half for the Riders....
Bartel getting outkicked by Medlock, Blue getting good field position....
Nichols completes passes to Demski and Wolitarsky……
Streveler then runs sneak and barges his way up the gut, for 25....to Rider 1
QB sneak on next play.....Bombers simply tuning up the Riders now
Banjo Bowl stench has finally dissipated ….now 31 to nothing, in first half....
Blue get standing ovation from crowd, as time runs out.....
Collaros starting the 2nd half.....to the surprise of many.....
Bighill blows into Rider backfield to sack ZC.....
Bridge finally comes in at QB....promptly sacked by Gaitor…..
Wolitarsky looking more and more... like an ace inside receiver... 
Bridge scrambling 25 yds back of line of scrimmage, but gets off nice bomb...
….to Shaw, who like most of the Riders receivers, today...can't catch a cold...
Nichols is done.....Streveler will take it from here...Harris actually being rested also...
Loffler really ranging around there, in this one....
Bighill chases down Bridge, with some tremendous pursuit...…
Sayles having another strong game, back there.....
Bridge has a terrific arm....but with no clue what he is doing out there.....
Both teams still smacking on D....just punts going back and forth, now....
Bridge to Holley, who is stripped by Fogg....who also recovers the fumble...
….capping off a miserable afternoon for Rider receiving corps.....
This Bryant at DT can ball, some....surprising quickness.
Bombers get it back with 2.5 minutes left....and just grind out the clock
…..to preserve the 31-0 shutout.  
Bombers needed that game more.....and played like it
I needed the gin, just as much....and drank like it.


 

I'm totally into embarrassing the Riders by running up the score in revenge for the way the Riders hotdogged us in the Banjo Bowl.  Especially Willie Jefferson. 

As impressed as I am, we can’t get too cocky. Riders on the road on four days rest probably not gonna be as tough as Riders at home in the playoffs.
Their offense is hot garbage though. Wow. Our secondary coming together at the right time. Great to see!
