I thought they have one challenge each half? 

No that's it

Fajardo is tough, he is going to stay in the game...

penalties were not good

i liked how we stretched the field 

defence got soft again on the sask FG drive 

 

Would love to see more shots of that.  I suspect they don't have the angle or view to overturn so they don't.

Too much cuteness on first down.  Sask has shown no ability to stop our power runs, why stop it for them?

Penalties...

The noise is messing with them.  Penalties just killing the drive 

Points off turnover is good...7 would have been great.  
 

the crowd noise is an impact for sure.  

Just get the first down....too cute

He deserves to be fired for being a bad coach of an undisciplined team. 

The fact Campbell is available may have an impact on the decision but I  am not convinced he deserves to be fired.  

So losing to the best team in the CFL in the east final gets Maas fired? 

Shaq Evans is playing...

Someone mention my name?

 

I was lurking for a bit but figured I'd just browse until the other forum came back.  Just want to wish my Bomber friends luck today.  A Bomber / TiCat Grey Cup would sure have a lot of cool story lines about ending droughts.  But this game is insane with its own story lines.  I have always been a Zach fan and have stuck up for him whenever I could. That doesn't change.  He is a great guy and if he leads the Bombers to success I will be extremely happy for him.  Next week's grey cup happens to fall on my daughter's due date to have our first grandchild...so that's where my focus is and  so really don't mind a Bomber celebration this year (especially if you guys can let us have 2020).  That being said....I am still going to be cheering the Riders on big-time today.  I leave for the stadium in about 15 minutes. 

Hope any fans that made it in for the game are having a good time.  Weather is fantastic!  Hopefully it is an exciting game....and this year has had some VERY exciting games....so I expect nothing less.

Cheers!

Thanks Trapper - you are one of the good ones...hope all goes well for your daughter!!

GO BOMBERS!!

Speedy B is the MOP, no debate...

Oh boy.  

Honestly hoping we are a little bit behind at halftime vs up by a 14+ ...not confident that we can hold a lead on the road.  Then we start pulling away in the latter half of the third and close it in the fourth.  

Go Blue!!!!

Lucky is a good returner and gadget player but not a very good receiver

It's not like he dropped a bunch of passes ...is it the route running and blocking ??  Personally I think it's more Lapo and schemes than Lucky himself 

If the Bombers aren't in it....this guy isn't even watching the Grey Cup - yes I am a sore loser....I will keep an eye on the score and when Hamilton is way up I might tune in.  
 

 

Riders QB Cody Fajardo says he believes he’ll be the starter in the #CFL Western Final. He hopes adrenaline takes over and he can play the entire game but that he has to self-monitor and might need to pull himself out depending on how his oblique feels.

That was already pretty much the case. I don't know if you ever tried to go back, but they only kept a certain number of pages live at any given time. The oldest thread on the main forum (That wasn't stickied) you could go back and read would have been from 2018 most likely.

It was there going waaaay back...but regular users couldn't see it.    There is an Archive board that stuff gets moved to after a year or so.

Sorry Frosty went back a couple of pages  and didn't see it ...might be time for a refresh though..

I really want to know what was said or done that set off Garrett like that. 

Well Rudolph did start by clawing away at Garrett's helmet...I was unable to see the game live in tv so didn't see the events up to it.  

Surprised there isn't a thread dedicated to NFL discussion...I will start it off:

how about that Myles Garrett helmet swinging from last night??  It's all over social media if you haven't seen it.  Can't see him playing again this season.

Not quite like having Matt Dunigan and Damon Allen on your 86 team but okay.

Pretty sure at one point the Esks had Dunigan, Allen and Ham all on their team!!   

Edmonton with MR in 2018 - missed playoffs 

BC without MR in 2018 - made playoffs

Edmonton  without MR in 2019 - made the playoffs 

BC with MR in 2019 - missed the playoffs

 

small trend in play...could mean something..could not.   What it could mean is that MR on your team doesn't guarantee a playoff berth.

I wish I could imagine it but my brain is not wired to think like Gbill...lol. He thinks everyone is on roids because he can't understand how he ended up being so, how shall I put it....scrawny.

Dude wore out the "report to moderator" button...my inbox was filled up

Agree with that. But it's better to go on a team with a established QB than a team that is without.

If you're an aspiring HC and have to pick between between BC and Ott (the 2 current vacancies) what will you choose? 

 

Ottawa who will be taking a legit shot at Nichols, Masoli or Arbuckle???

not that simple of a choice - especially with Hervey in BC

Lots of intangibles that us fans don't know about too...maybe not a slam dunk decision.

why was BC such a mess?  It was kind of odd to be honest.  Oline was terrible but still it is a bit puzzling
