  1. These two have to be at the top of the "what are we going to do with them?" list.
  2. Why not consider "telescoping" the season by shortening the time between games by a day or two?
  3. Anything those gals don't have is not worth wishing for.
  4. Another flame-out of a big-name NFL player. Maybe he just didn't want to leave his buddys behind.
  5. Was the issue with Willy that he is hanging onto the ball too long? There was speculation last year that one of the reasons he was getting pounded was that he refused to throw the ball away when there was no play.
  6. Its amazing how much is lost without the music.
  7. I agree, the coaches show has never been more entertaining. For the most part, yes. I do remember one show with Reinbold after the Bombers had been soundly beaten and the lies were opened to callers. The first couple of callers pitched softballs, but the third one one tore a strip off Reinbold who was competely blindsided and flustred, leading to several minutes of "ums" and "ers".
  8. For the record: no, you may not sneak out onto the field and give him your phone number.
  9. Shocking, but amazing that he managed to get that many free meals out of the Esks.
  10. My thanks for all the training camp updates- much appreciated.
  11. you really think sneaking on 3rd and short does much to develop a guy? Future catburglar? Cats are easy to burgle, as they sleep 98.7% of the time.
  12. Tuinei has CFL experience and has excelled at times, this is a huge advantage imo. No learning curve for him. Then it would seem to me that he ought to stand out in the exhibition games, yes?
  13. While Willy is our best bet so far this season, I am impressed enough by Marve's athleticism, smarts and attitude that I wouldn't be surprised to see him do as well as Willy or even better. He knows he has to improve his passing game and once he has that he ought to be a very good CFL quareterback. I don't see an NFL team taking a chance on a player with two wonky knees.
  14. You live in Dauphin, Mb? It's so named because of a Uke on every corner.
  15. There won't be live streaming of the Bomber game tomorrow will there? TSN announced today they will on tsn.ca! Yaaayy!!!!
  16. I've always enjoyed pre-season games (except for the Burke disasters). Its real hard to judge team play, but you get to look at individual players a lot better when you are not engaged in watching the game for the outcome. I will miss them, and I guess we will have to rely on solo Bob Irving for insights.
  17. And he wasn't alone.
  18. Well, we may see how committed the team is to rewarding performance versus buddies. If Brohm isn't good enough to beat out Marve and Portis, he ought to be shown the door. Wally Buono may not make many BFFs among his players, but his teams are almost always competitive.
  19. Here's a golden opportunity for Veltung to step up and make his case for a job, if he ever gets off the "owie squad". I've been impatienty waiting for him to show his stuff, but so far, all promise, no performance.
  20. Not looking good for Brohm.....maybe just a bad day, but I haven't heard any kudos for him since the start of camp.
  21. More than one defensive tackle must be smacking their lips over the prospect of looking across the line and seeing Pencer opposite.
  22. Sorry, Spuds, I have to disagree. All the bells and whistles are there in the newer Blackberrys, but they took too long to produce a consumer rather than a business-oriented mobile phone. The free Blackberry Messenger texting alone is great, but for many of us in the Boomer age group, learning how to make any new cellphone sing and dance is more effort than it seems worth.
  23. Its amazing how quickly veteran players recover from nagging injuries once training camp is over.
  24. Damned few athletes know when its time. Most will have to be pushed before they decide to jump, even the star players. At the very least, 20 year olds recover a lot quicker from owies than 44 year olds.
