Ugh...just ugh..

Me neither, but it's a good way to keep up on the information. The political threads were a mercy kill as they had gone so far over the line of civil discussion that the mods had no choice really.

BC is good....we are already great.

First in the West? Oh wait...Jk,,,Booch....we may have gotten an extra win.

I agree. From start to finish it was probably the most dominant victory of the past few years and that is including our complete domination of BC earlier this year. One thing about this year's team is that when they are rolling they are unstoppable. We haven't been nearly consistent enough this year but I truly believe this year's team has the most ability to dominate on any given Sunday, than of any team in the MOS/Walters era....and that is saying something.

My eye test for both is coach's comfort level in trying a long FG. We will send Castillo out for a 50 yarder in a close game, when Leggs was here we punted more often than not.

One of the most misleading stats in the entire CFL, along with QB yardage, is tackle totals for MLBs. Sankey is a tackler in the box only, has no pursuit or contain speed, cannot go sideline to sideline or drop into coverage. 30 years ago he would have been the best MLBer in the CFL, now he is a fantastic at only one thing of many things a MLB needs to do player. Over rated? Grossly. A useful guy situationally though. Tackle totals are still held as the gold standard for MLB play and that is unfortunate, because it is no longer accurate. It's just that the media seems to not want to let it go, or can't figure out that they should. The game has evolved beyond MLBs playing solely in the box. The ability to do so is important, but is only about a third of the game now for MIKEs.

I think ZC is just going after too many home run balls sometimes, and it's probably because he has the horses to do it. Probably should settle into a more balanced approach sometimes though and take what the defence is giving.

Sometimes the other team shows up too. Playoffs is the time that both teams will be bringing 100%...winning those games is all that matters and in November it tends to look ugly. Well, they better, this is the time where the rubber needs to hit the road. I'm not willing to say we didn't look fired up last year, Toronto as it turns out has a pretty good team.

I'm not hesitant to think we will win, because we do win over 75% of our games, but I get your point on the rest. For sure, but that possibility is always there I suppose no matter what. Great teams drop deuces in the playoffs at a pretty alarming rate if you look around pro sports. What comforts me is that we do have experience winning and know what it takes. Guys just have to show up. As fans, there is little we can do about that I suppose.

Pretty high chance I would think.

I can agree with all of that. Focus and inconsistency have been problems at times this year. Time to get that shored up in the final third.

Yea..I was expecting a Calgary win this week. Guess not.

Thing is if Osh could not get a replay it's possible command centre may not have either.

With 42 at the half 100 was possible. Sadly we shut it down in the 2nd half

This year...yea..but he's getting his exit strategy for the NFL ready too. He's not a fool..and he is hoping it's the Bombers if not the NFL.

Yep..Hamilton was heavily regarded as the best team in the CFL in 2019.

I'm happy with the win but when you are on pace for 84 points at the half you should damn well put up 80 points. When is this team going to play a full 60 minutes..farking roster management taking points off the board. Lol Seriously tho, this today is why I'm not sweating roster mgmt miscues. When we come out motivated and prepared roster mgmt doesn't matter.

Well CFL.ca hasn't been particularly accurate this year, so here's hoping that is yet another error.

Players can walk away from the PR if they want. They cannot talk to another team first though and players with reps of doing it don't tend to have very long careers afterwards. It is seen as a huge red flag about their character if players do this. Rightfully so. Also, the whole point of a player leaving would be to get game cheques as opposed to PR money. If they are activated by their current team there is no need to leave. No team is going to promise another team's PR player a guaranteed AR spot for the remainder of the season. Look around the league, who is Haba going to replace that he is undeniably better than? I like Haba, but we need to reel it in a bit. He is a promising rookie, but nothing more. He is not some superstar DE that we are refusing to play.

It's a moot point, he's on record saying not this year. Wouldn't surprise me one bit if he and Walters crack a couple beers this weekend and discuss what a possible return next year might look like tho. He's not up here solely for shits and giggles. I think he's giving the Bombers first crack at him for next year and he is doing it the proper way...in person.

Next year and in time for the playoffs this year.

A player cannot refuse a promotion from the PR to the AR....and I am super unclear why they would even want to.

Like I said, I'm sure it does. Those who operate like that can FO because they didn't FI. It definitely doesn't show good character, definitely not the kind of character our team covets.

He told the Sun that he will not be returning to the CFL this year. Wants to explore all NFL options first. Next year tho....hmmm.
