I live in McKenzie Lake. Bought 15 years ago for $225,000, currently valued at $570,000. 2,000 sq ft. House prices in Calgary are high for sure. When I first moved here they had things called starter homes which sold for around $130,000. Now nothing is really available for less than $300k. For me it takes 20 mins to get down town for work (I leave at 5:50am) and 30 mins to get home (I leave at 3:30pm). If I leave at 4 the trip take 45 mins and f I leave at 4:30 it's usually 60+ mins to get home. Rush hour seems to start at 3:30 and ends around 7:00. Places to eat are not an issue and better places pop up all the time.

Would still be able to beat us!

When the blue really needed the O line to hold fast for a Hail Mary, they collapsed like a Costco reusable shopping bag.

I find I have hope at the beginning of the game, but usually by the end of the first quarter I just want the game to end. If we're down by a TD+ I have zero faith the team can come back. If we're up by a TD+ I have zero faith they guys can hold the lead. It blows considering it was not that many years ago, we were always in it to the very bitter end. I long for the days we'd throw up 40+ points a game and be man handling the opposition.

Another putrid game from the Bombers. The basement again. Not much hope for the rest of this season. Sigh!

Now that the decision has been made, the coaches better be working on a game plan to utilize Goltz's skill set. Surely to god they O line has enough beef to work together to open a small hole for Simpson. Once he gets through, he should be able to make yards. Rolls outs, toss out and what not, should keep the defense off the field and rested. Here's a novel idea. Don't throw for 5 yards when you need 8 and how about a series of 10 yard throws. A string of first downs and the next thing you know, you're in the end zone. No need to throw 40 yard bombs all game. Mix it to hell up!

Well I for one am glad I found this place. OB was, heavy emphasis on was, great for a couple years when I first found it, but it quickly degenerated and all the quality posters left and moved here. Go on yah everyone for creating a great site and community of like minded Bomber fans. Those that stick with the team through thick and thin and it's been pretty thin of late.

I hope Goltz can get enough time from the O line to make some plays. Maybe use his feet more and swing out passes to the running backs. Anything to take pressure off the feather weight O line we have!

See this is how rumours get started!

I don't really care who they get rid of. I'm more concerned with the beef they need to bring in to strengthen and bulk up the O line.

Didn't a third stringer dismantle the Bombers recently? Maybe our third stringer has some we've been lacking! Ha. I kill myself.

I've matured in the past year. I found it futile to be mad at the Bombers after a game because it just happened too much. Then to be on OB and hear the bitching and moaning and it got me thinking "did I sounds like that?" Nah...never. At least here people talk intelligently about the team and their woes and not just fire this that and the other person.

That was the one. Actually found the bread crumb over at Stamps Fan Club page. Thank goodness.

I finally found the bread crumb trail you people left outside the Ourbombers forumn. It took me a while to locate it but I was encouraged to do so when I posted "efing" on their board and I got moderated for it.

Tackling was the biggest issue. No one wants to wrap up their man. Just hit them, or hope too, and knock them down. Wrap them up and drag them down. Is it because they are so small they feel the need to prove themselves?
