Westy Sucks

I hope Goosen makes good on this opportunity.  I'm thinking he will.  Should be ready.

Big enough to go bear hunting with a stick. . 

I bow to your superior intellect.

Finally!  Someone who recognizes my greatness and unmatched Football knowledge.

I knew it was something very lame like that.

Or increases it. The weather is starting to turn which means KG is ready to start throwing terrible picks followed by the classic KG turtle and weak ass injury excuse like he always does. KG sucks and MTL can have him.

That's terrible if true. Feel for the guy. His Ma couldn't have been that old.

Good for Montreal, I guess.  At least they didn't give up too much.  Glenn is better than anything they had, but that's like saying that Glenn is the tallest midget.  If they are expecting that he's going to lead them to the playoffs, all I can say is "Prepared to be disappointed" or "Prêt à être déçu"

Not scared of Kevin Glenn

@Ravens: We have promoted WR Jeremy Ross to the 53-man roster and waived DT Christo Bilukidi.

I don't understand how you can play a game without a back up receiver, but dress 9 linebackers...

Jeff Scott is my main prospect here. He checks all the boxes for me.
This guy reminds me of Blink more than any to date.

Had no interest in Messam at the time but gave this wash out a look.....

That ended up pretty much exactly how we all thought it would.

Those are the kinds of trades that appealed to Brendan Taman, which eventually cost him his job.

NOOOOO!!! Chick & Owens are expensive, old & on the downslide. Wild is only 25 & will get better & better. Denmark is a solid receiver. Wouldn't touch those 2 with a 10 foot pole.

Everyone has a breaking point where hope isn't enough anymore.  There comes a time when talk (and token firings) are nothing but cheap parlour tricks.  Comes a time when you have used up all your free chances and people won't come back until you prove you are worthy.
 
I consider myself about as hardcore as they come for a Bomber fan.  Don't want to think of the money I've spent on tickets and jerseys and memorabilia over the years.   I will still be in the stands next year because I bought Grey Cup tickets and committed to the season tickets for the next couple of years.  But for the first time in ..... forever ... I have found myself questioning why I continue to buy season tickets.  Although the last two games have been more entertaining, I'm tired of fighting traffic and paying inflated food and drink prices to watch a subpar team where I have little hope that they will win.
 
Maybe you are right, maybe I'm the minority in that ... but the conversations I hear between people when walking out of the stadium don't give me hope that others aren't feeling the same way.

There is absolutely no way you extend the guy in the off season, that's just rewarding failure. You wait till next year and see how things go, you can always extend him then or just let it play out.

You guys have watched Matt Nichols now for what  - a month? I've watched him for 6 years (well 4 and a half due to injury). Problem here is people are being swayed a bit by us actually having a backup QB. You should be comparing Matt Nichols to the real incumbents - from Ryan Dinwiddie to Tee Martin to Elliot to Brink to Marve to Brohm. THAT's the glasses people are looking through and subbing Willy's name in there lmao.
 
 
Nichols is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> better than ANY bomber QB recruited here over the past 10 years - definitely.
 
He is NOT better than Willy - there is a clear drop off there for sure. 
 
He is not more mobile than Willy either. He just plays a different style.
 
Nichols is definitely a backup QB in this league. A very good backup don't get me wrong, but a backup nevertheless. And I for one hope we do sign him as after twenty plus years I have totally given up on the bombers ever recruiting and developing their own quarterback - just won't happen

If the kicker makes a field goal, somebody misses a tackle on a punt return, and other team returns it for a touchdown. Or our kick returner fumbles the kick off.
 
or the coach doesn't throw the challenge flag, when even he admits he should have. or somebody takes a stupid penalty, offence or defence. like hoofing the ball after making an interception.
 
or there's a too many men on the field. or we keep running it up the middle, even though it hasn't worked all season. or our best receiver drops three passes that hit him in the hands. Or the defence allows the opposing offence to pass it down the field with a minute left, to get into field goal range. 
 
Everybody on this team takes a turn at screwing up. If it's not one guy, it's another. including the coaches.
 
Football is a team game  they say.

If we had Twitter in 2001 this could have been a Troy Westwood post Grey Cup tweet ...

Seriously!  Iso...you may be old but you're no idiot.   Brohm has done nothing to prove himself in this league.  Lirim has shown he can be a CFL calibre kicker.  There's the difference and you know it.    

He cost us the game.
 
Can't recall a kicker missing 4 fgs and an extra point in one game.

Lirim looked like ol crap leg Westwood tonight.!
