With O'Shea, it could be that the goat entrails he consults were unfavourable.

Am expecting a sloppy, low-scoring game with a Bomber narrow victory, but could go either way.

Good efforts on the part of many players on both sides. Nice to see and makes for an entertaining and competitive game.

These ad hominem attacks are dominating the forum and add little or nothing to the discussion. I hate to think what it will be like should the Bombers lose to Ottawa tomorrow. Lighten up, folks.

Cannot be down because of the N.I.H. factor.

If Walters and/or Miller had to order O'Shea to cut Thomas, that ought to have been the icing on the cake of reason to send O'Shea down the road with Thomas. So......O'Shea gets and extension instead. Bizarre.

I think that a quote from Pete Estes, former president of GM is appropriate here. Estes once said that GM is not in business to make cars. It is in business to make money and currently it was doing so by building cars. Miller may have taken the same tack- that the Bombers are in business to make money and the football operations were a means to that end. Ergo, so long as the faithful continue to show up in large numbers, there is no need for change. If it was/is common knowledge around the league that O'Shea's way of doing things was inevitably leading to a crappy team with Walters and Miller passively accepting that, why would coaching staff who had other, better options want to come here?

As been proposed ad nausem in this forum, this is not about just what is going on this season- this has been fermenting for the past three seasons. There were plenty of warning signs but the Trinity ignore them all.

Incidents are often happenstance and unpredictable. Patterns and trends are what count, and neither flatter the Bombers.

Fans have NOT forgotten- that's why there is the anger. Last game looked an awful lot like the worst of the Reinbold (etc) era.

Looks inevitable.

Losing is one thing, and inevitable. Getting humiliated and setting a record for futility at home is another, and that is what costs you fan support

We are near, if not already at the point, where the season is decided, for better or worse, and changing coaches will do little to affect the outcome of the season. It may be of value to make a point by sacking one or two of the assistant coaches, though. I would like to see Khari back here.

I worked in the field for a couple of decades, and while it is not true for all who abuse alcohol, it is for some. Alcohol is not only a depressant, it is also a diuretic and and anticoagulant (hence the red nose) . Oncologists will not begin chemo or radiation until the patient is provably abstinent for a minimum of 90 days. Surgeons who operate on those in the problems expect all kinds of problems- resistance to anesthesia, and analgesia and hemorrhaging that is difficult to stop.

It's not just about the score- for me, it was seeing the competitive play, great individual efforts, coaching adjustments and strategies.

Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback Zach Collaros and his wife are building Dogtopia—a four-hectare, C$3 million facility near Winnipeg dedicated to rescuing abused and abandoned dogs. “This is more than just a shelter,” Collaros says. “We will provide professional training, water-play areas and around-the-clock veterinary care—but most importantly, love. Dogs are family.”

Easy as cake. Piece of pie, right?

The slate of games this past weekend was overall the most entertaining to date. The teams who were expected to lose, lost, but they put up a fight. Harrison Frost looks to have potential. all that teams that played looked like they upped their games, which does not bode well for the Bombers. The Bombers' runway is very short.

Wikipedia says he's 49 years old. Is he a MLB?

Do we really need another quarterback?

RedBlacks may not win this game, but at least they showed up and Maier has completed some nice passes that his receivers hung onto.

Not the ones who make the decisions, apparently.

Bombers have that locked up.

Not really complicated. Apparently Miller came down from the stands and ordered O'Shea to bench Willy in favour of Nichols or else. That ought to have been enough to question O'Shea's continued coaching.

If Bomber management can still stomach the way the team is playing now and now make any significant changes in the off week following the most recent debacle, it sure as spit looks like we will be saddled with the team substantially as it is for the rest of the season.
