When did this happen?

I have had a hamstring injury, and the damned thing took forever to get right. I found out that in the early stages of healing, it is real easy to aggravate it.

Streveler (safe pick)

You may have noticed that the distance from your mouth to your bladder (which has shrunk to the size of a walnut) has been shortened to about 4 inches.

This does not bode well for Chris Matthews' future here. Plus, I want to sign that player (#26 in the dark uniform) who caught Grant in the first clip.

He probably has to go online to check his bank account to comfort himself and get back to sleep.

Plus the head coach is nothing short of terrible.

Its a Mexican-themed eatery, so lots of salt is mandatory.

I believe it takes several years of a stable roster for CFL fans to start identifying strongly with a given edition of a team. It also helps to have personable players out in public- Khari Jones and Buck Pierce are a couple of examples.

Placate yourself with numerous libations.

Good on Mr. Jones. He still has a lot of fans here pulling for him and its nice to see a good guy making the most of his opportunity.

According to 1290 radio this afternoon, Matthews was suited up at practice today but did not practice with the first team. This is starting to look like a soap opera.

The only way that the Riders can back into the playoffs is the ineptness of all the other teams. This is the worst assortment of poor teams in years, maybe decades.

I voted for the Riders. I feel dirty. Only Claybrooks being fired immediately after the game will make me feel better.

No worry. Pallister is probably on vacation in Costa Rica.

I'm betting that both Whitehead and Demski will be ready for the TiCats.

Looks like Claybrooks and Chamblin are competing to be the first head coaches to be fired this season. Problem is: who do the GMs have to replace them? Is Trestman available or interested to be in Vancouver?

We all (at least most of us) knew that Nichols was a good quarterback, but there still was the question whether he was good enough to help the team to the Grey Cup. I posit that the question has been answered now. A good quarterback by himself rarely carries the team, and Mike Reilly with the Lions is living proof of that. Nichols was criticized for not slinging the long ball and getting conservative (no political commentary here) late in the game. As has been posted here already, this was the most dominant performance by the Bombers in a very long time and likely the game of Nichols' pro career. Ottawa is ahead of three other CFL teams but they didn't deserve to be on the same field as the Big Blue.

The actor Bradley Cooper was asked about his emergence as an overnight star, and said, "It took years to become an overnight success". So it is with the Bombers.

Augustine looks very quick and fast

Hardrick is on the limp

About time that Nichols got sat down

Bomber D playing prevent defence now.

Now, THAT'S a power run!

Time to start giving the bench warmers reps
