    From your last two posts it would appear you have become quite an expert on this site twisting the knife while wanting to give the impression you are sympathetic to our cause.  I for one do not appreciate your comments here.  Your gloating under the guise of honest analysis wears thin.  I stay our off your site so why don't you do the same.  Yeah, I'm a little touchy right now and will read and accept critical comments from our posters but I kind of wish you would buzz off.

    LeBird got a reaction from Fred C Dobbs in Winnipeg 5-5 @ Regina 5-4 Game Day   
    I think the ball to Washington would have been intercepted even if he had not touched it.  The rider D was far enough back and the ball was on its way down.  My guess anyway. The defence did not play well in the second half because of all the 2 and outs from us. The DB's were having a hard time because the line was no longer able to apply constant pressure.  
    Either Streveler is very lucky or better than MOS thinks. On two offensive plays in the last two weeks he gets two touchdowns. The one today was really nice because he threw it while scrambling. 
    It's so much like another time. MOS sticking with the No.1 at all costs. I think Nichols should be tough enough to accept to be benched and take the opportunity to see what is happening that he can't see under game conditions.  Oh well, playing here might help him.

    Would like to bet that our D can hold this Sask offense......to less than 500 yds in offense.  Yet my house is staying put.

    You don't have to have a cannon for an arm to be successful in the CFL- examples abound. You don't even have to be mobile, but you do have to be smart, be able to read defences quickly and command the respect of your teammates. I think that Nichols should start against Sask but he has to understand that his leash is short- a quarter perhaps two and if he is not producing, the hook has to come out.

    If you're betting don't open your wallet too wide! MOS's  loyalty would make some guy down South kill for.  I think it would be fair for MOS to start Nichols but make a change before the game is out of hand.  We give up 500 yards to Ottawa and Hall says:"I like where we are right now".  To prove his point he allows Calgary to do it again.  Well at least he's a man of his word.
    I guess it's not funny but this deja vu gets very frustrating after a while as we are left with the only option of accepting it as being the norm.

    Calgary has been very good at not allowing rushing yards.  So it was a given the front seven would stand there like a bunch of buzzards waiting to feast on Harris's bones. That was not going to change until the Bombers would spread the field and that they were not willing to do.  Why is it the coaches don't figure the game plan is not working and should  be revised?

    We were playing better football during the first three games of the year.  I remember when Willy was replaced, the fans were making it clear they had enough.
    When a coach refuses to correct the play calling of his assistants he could also find himself sitting with the fans

    How about playing a disciplined game! Those penalties are costing us big time. Not much sense in playing lights out when we give it all back on penalties.  BLM can kill you if he has time so the front four will have to help the DB's by rattling him.  
    Good Luck Blue Bombers!    Show us your good stuff.

    I guess every fan has the right to boo any player but I am not convinced a real fan would exercise that right. As fans we go to the game to support our team for all the time it is on the field.  I supported Willy during his time here and wondered how much punishment a man could take and still come back.  Eventually those hits affected his playing ability.
    Nichols had a bad night but so did Fogg, Lankford and many others. The problem in that game is the team were not prepared properly to play it.  Where Ottawa seemed to know what was going to happen we seem to guess what they would do.   They had seen some weaknesses and exploited them.  Very little is mentioned about all the penalties that cost us a pile of points. That is something we should be booing about.  Why are those guys allowed to do that? 
    Nichols is my quarterback and I hope he puts that game behind him.

    I'd have left Streveler in only to save the wear and tear on Nichols, but he's still the guy for this team. I don't even think he was that bad, lots of penalties took plays off the board for them, he dealt with a lot of dropped passes and he dealt with a team that was taking away the Bombers running attack which screwed up the entire game plan. Just one of those games that happens where the other team executes their planned defense and you can't find the answers for it.
