Bryant Turner, Stoudemire (if that counts), Greaves. 
 
Second tier of sucky: Anderson, Peach

I'd have to throw Tracey into the mix, as well.

Walters has done his job. The problems with the Bombers are Bellefeuille and to a lesser extent, O'Shea.

Yeah, practice updates are basically the only reason I lurk here. Thanks, gbill, you're becoming my favourite poster. I'm giving you a hundred million internet dollars.

He may feel it's an empty gesture and I can appreciate not wanting to hear 'consolation' after a loss .. that said .. it's about good sportsmanship and the one thing I've always admired about the sport of hockey is that post series handshake .. those guys beat each other up .. it can get ugly .. but at the end of a series there's that show of respect for the guys competing across from you.
 
I guess one could infer that Jones simply doesn't respect his opponents.

The CFL's  "flagship franchise" is now the standard for dysfunction.
An incredible fall from grace in such a short time. And to think they fancied themselves as the 21st century Eskimos. Funny if it wasnt so pathetic.
 

Rod blocked me on Twitter because I called him out on his "guaranteed" Riders win prediction a couple weeks ago.

In Saskatchewan on Halloween they think "pumpkin" is two words...

No one looks good in Rider green.

Until this team makes it to the Grey Cup under Walters, he hasn't proven he is better than Joe Mack

Remember back when Doug Berry was here and the Bombers would have this great opening drive all the time then do sweet **** all the rest of the game? Don't get your panties in a bunch over an opening drive even if it is a long time consuming one. Football is a game of adjustments and the one thing I like about Hall's defence so far is how much he seems to adjust when things aren't working. He doesn't at least from my standpoint sit by stubbornly when things don't work. 

Was stunned, that the Blue could give up a TD on the opponent's first drive.....cannot remember the last 37 times, that has happened.....

They didn't let him walk. He was going to be a free agent and had made it clear he wasn't going to re-sign because he wanted to be a starter. Sorry but that "they let him walk" stuff is a pet peeve because we all know you can't force someone to sign and some players will leave no matter what you offer them.
Hopefully the people who were spewing the "he was our third choice" crap will shut up and just be thankful we have him locked up for a while.

I'll bet most folks had a here we go again feeling after BC's first drive. I know I did.

I think we should stop starting 2 Canadian receivers and start 4 International Moore, Denmark, Adams and Veltung plus 2 big backs with Marshall and Scott will make Willy's job a lot easier.

Like the ones that were telling me how Tino Sunset was an upgrade on Willy......

If I had to guess, based on the moves made by other Corus properties in the chain, there's budget cuts being made all over, so each market is having to make cuts. Again, I could never handle the stress of major market media. You're one bad book away from getting the axe. I've found a way to carve out a pretty good living in a small market, with job security, and I'm hanging on to that for dear life...ha ha.

Willy lasts the game, puts up really good numbers, bombers win. This place is dead silent for a week. 

If the Bombers assign Hurl to cover Harris I see Harris getting 200Yds or so. The Bombers have a long and not that great history when it comes to containing running QB's and I don't see anything changing tonight.

Statistics don't tell the full story.   Sometimes you use other advanced evaluation tools..... like the right and left eyeball.
 
I "see", so far that.....we don't move the ball, when Brohm is in, too many turnovers, and the other players on O look somewhat uninspired.
Also "see....." that Marve actually moves the ball, somewhat....although not in the classic fashion, his style provides a change up.... and Mave does appear to give our other players a bit of a lift..
 
This "trend" started last year, and continued through the x-season.
 
That said....Mavre is a walking impro act, at this point, runs at the drop of a hat, and rarely sets his feet to make a throw.   This is why he is a "future" guy, requiring grooming.
Brohm, on the other hand, is a 7 year pro.  Also factoring in his age......he has to be a "now" guy.....or there is no real point to keeping him around.
 
Up till "now".....Brohm has not gotten it done.  
 
If this changes, more power to him, and the coaching staff, who clearly believe in him....
 
If not, the tipping point should come sooner, than later

Please tell us that you went back and re-watched the two games that Marve participated in last year and that you're not just staring blankly at a sheet of numbers?  The reality is that Marve "out performed" both Willy and Brohm in those games in that he made positive things happen, moved the ball, caused no turn-overs and was able to score points when the others could not. 
 
This does not mean that he is necessarily a better QB than either Willy or Brohm but under Marcel's scripted system they were not finding a way to win those games and their health was being put in serious jeopardy by sitting in a poorly protected pocket.  The object of the game is to find a way to win, not just conform to a failing model that perpetuates losses.  Remember at the time of Marve's appearances the Bombers were mired in a half season losing skid which he ended.  Sometimes you just have to break the mold and start fresh.

I think a lot of folks are forgetting that Marve hasn't getting many(any?) reps in the last 2 weeks.  We had 1 day of practice.  That's not enough for Marve to leapfrog Brohm or to give Marve a good chance at being successful. That's probably what O'Shea meant by there's nothing Marve could do to get the start this week.

The fact that they STILL aren't considering going with Marve just boggles the mind...

Based on O'Sheas criteria, I could be the Bombers backup QB. I need no talent, as long as I "play within the system" I'm gold! I'll throw a tonn of pick 6's and throw the ball in the dirt, and the coaching staff will love me!
