You must be from around these parts. Ference is average at best without Chara by his side.
As a Jet fan,, I'm hoping they play these guys more so I can have great conversations with my Oiler fan colleagues coming into the office every morning.
Something like, 'Unfortunately, McDavid can't play every position for 60 minutes'. 

Current roster:
 

First bold = not true
Second Bold = True
Third Bold = Likewise
Fourth bold = Absoutely

The game is in Winnipeg and I just had a vision that the team is going to go 4-1 over the final 5 games.  Get ready everyone.  This is very exciting.

I'm a huge fan of Henoc Muamba....as a player and who he was off the field in the community. But with that said, they're talking about a lot of money that could be spent better, I think. If they'd done it, I'd be cool with that, but as others have said, I'm not all that torn up about him signing elsewhere (bonus if it's an East team like the Als!)
 
Nothing but respect for Henoc and wish him the best of luck. As others have said, Hurl has been getting better all the time, our LB corps is our best asset and we could use that money in other spots that are more important...

No, not at all. Thank you for posting this. I just wanted to confirm he said it. 
I was slammed repeatedly by Mr. Dee, WBBFan, Rich, Mike and a few others for talking nonsense, being preposterous and whimsical, why I couldn't be a professional football coach for suggesting that it would have been wise for our head coach to have thrown that challenge flag on that play to slow everything down. Now it's confirmed he agrees. So I'm assuming these same posters will direct their wrath at our Head Coach now for the exact same criticisms they directed towards me. 

Yes health #1 as well as good for him in recognizing the importance of knowing football isn't forever.

A more important criteria than sacks would be how disciplined and effective is Peach with his Gap assignments.

They already are.  The officials are responsible for judging whether the formation is legal based on the rules.  Players can always ask for clarification, that's what the check-in with the linesman is.  You'll see defensive players ask the umpire to set the line for them fairly often on short-yardage so they don't line up offside too.

Matty is fantastic.

"Eric rogers, the best receiver in the CFL today makes another spectacular one handed grab! *replay shows trap on ground* and hes st it again, making huge play with an amazing catch in coverage! Class of the cfl!"
Man, i almost threw my drink at the tv.

Really, you're judging him on that? His facial expressions.
I'm giving him some flak on not throwing the challenge flag, but I would never assess him, cast my opinion on his ability as a CFL coach because of his facial or body mannerisms. The word silly and foolish has been thrown at me today, fair enough, but on the scale of silliness, that might be the benchmark.

If there was one day I'd ever wish Mike Kelly still had a role, any role with this team it would be today where he would surely tell the league to go have intercourse with itself.

Mistakes are made by refs all the time, always will be.  
 
As a Bomber fan, it is frustrating as hell to watch that happen in the final minutes of a game.   But if you take a step back and look at it, if one play like that means we miss the playoffs, we don't really deserve to be in the playoffs.
 
Meaning the Bombers have squandered many other chances in many other games to put themselves in a position where a call like that could have such a profound impact.  You can really blame all those other plays and squandered opportunities just as much as a missed call.

I hear you and hindsight as we know is usually 20 20. However, as a head coach if your opposition is in hurry up after a circus catch and their in the lead where they should be taking their time to burn the clock you might think something is up with that catch so throw the challenge flag and slow things down. Just saying.

True however when your opposition is wanting to get on the ball quick at a time they should be burning the clock, throw the challenge flag. Throwing the challenge flag could also be seen as calling a timeout as well.

Man Dave Dickenson is a great play caller. Its a treat to watch him call a game.

Whole lotta empty seats....
Stoudermire gets a pick.....which is called back on a PI
...but on same series....gets a legal INT on deflection....
Cornish finding gaping holes to run through...
Stamps misdirection/play action calls ...thing of beauty...
Nice 40 yd throw and catch TD...Nichols to Adams....
Nichols throwing ball well in 1st half......
....finding Moore regularly...
Both teams moving ball pretty well in opening half
BLM getting too much time to throw.....
14-14 at the half.....
Adjustment time......
Bombers D ramp up the hitting, as game goes on.....
Big sticks by Bass, Westerman, Leggett, Adams and Washington.....
Cornish stuffed throughout 2nd half.....for negative yds....
And the Bomber O? 
Uh.....18 yds offense in 3rd Q......
0 (yes, zero) points in first 28 minutes.... of 2nd half....
Stamps dial up pass rush...start crunching pocket on Nichols....
...with no play calls to counter it....par usual....
Painful penalties....on KRs and procedure calls on O.....
Khalil Bass is as good a D player as anyone in this league......
Strong game from Demond Washington....
Westerman still brings the pass rush.....
Some nice punts by Hajrullahu.....
Huge game for Stamps from Marquay McDaniel
Stamps start to pull away.....
...get a forced out catch ruling, on 2nd down
...on a rule that didn't exist... in the last home game
...and proceed to finish off 80 yd drive with TD.....21-14 Calgary...
The Invisible Man....otherwise known as Clarence Denmark...
....finally runs deep downfield for a pass.....
...and gets called for offensive PI.....
Eric Rodgers makes circus catch, in double coverage...
....or not. 
25-14 Calgary....2 minutes to go....
Stoudermire returns punt for 40 yds.....
Kohlert wide open for TD pass.....
Marshall slam in 2 point convert......now 25-22
Blue D gets the 2 and out......Bombers get ball on own 50....
Tthird and less than a yard, Nichols gets first down.....
...but Bombers called for illegal formation....NO END...
...forcing 50 yd tying FG attempt into the wind.....
Hajrullahu pushes it wide right.......
Stamps inch out of town with the win......
Bombers inch closer to irrelevance.....
Lots of controversy about that formation call.....
But then again..Blue would of probably found some way to lose the OT....
Because that is what they do......
I always find some way to drink the gin....
...for much the same reason.. 

I get the CFL itch around May, it ends around September, usually.

I have definitely moved into apathy.   Doesn't even feel like game day today.  There is nothing exciting about the prospect of sitting through another one of these games, especially against Calgary.

Yea, whatever happened to form tackling. And it's not just DB's, it happens at every position.
Coaching my 11 year old son and his teammates chest plate tackling with faces/chest up, ready position, buzz the feet, rips and wraps sends mixed messages when he sees what happens at this level as the up and coming CFL fan that he is.

My thought as well. We're in a better position now to suggest it's more of a talent issue.
