We'll have to wait for Grey Cup ticket prices to be released but I wonder if they'll be artificially inflated...say by $100 per ticket??

Kind of concerns me that their trying to insure themselves against this. Just commit to improving the team and there would be no need to do this.

I'd like to see Portis get some game action too. He's impressed me in practice this season.

Most ever for a Bomber team, yes. Previous record was 67. We're at 70 with one game to go.

I blame Jian Ghomeshi.

@PentonKirk: Drew Willy will start Saturday's game vs. #Stampeders, but Marve and/or Portis could get playing time. #Bombers

Stupid move in my opinion. Should give Marve the start.

@BobIrvingCJOB: Mike O'Shea says Drew willy will start in season finale

You never fail to establish how dumb you are. What? It's a completely valid question, I was wondering the same thing myself. Me too. I guess we're all dumb.

I could be dreaming but thought I heard a commercial on the radio where Bomber fans get $100 off their Grey Cup ticket in Winnipeg next year if they commit to Bomber season tickets for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 seasons. Anyone else heard this?

That sucked. I had to go talk to real people during that outage.

Interesting tweet today showed that Bomber OL was giving ~3.15 seconds of protection per pass and Lions were only getting ~2.06 seconds protection. Anything over 3 seconds is pretty good.

You forgot: 4. Joe Mack 5. David Asper 6. The Winnipeg media

Is this thread serious?

Why wouldn't he be able to stay healthy this offseason?

Wow. That'll do it everytime when you only look to your first read. I wonder why he stopped progressing to the other reads?

On the CJOB post game show they thought one coordinator will likely be fired and the rest kept. I'd like both Marcel and Etch gone but if it's only one, Etch must go.

no the bombers have to have a better record to cross over. So my initial post was accurate before I was corrected.

Typical game for Grigsby today...6 carries for 7 yards. He'll be selling cell phone covers at a shopping mall kiosk next season.

Grigsby had 6 carries for 7 yards today. Typical game for Grigsby. I swear Grigsby single-handedly cost us a playoff birth.

Bellefeuille needs to design the offense towards Willy's strengths and weaknesses. Specifically, he needs to have Willy move around in the pocket more, and also ensure there's almost always an outlet receiver nearby when Willy can't find someone downfield within 3 seconds. I'd say 70% of the sacks taken this year can be blamed on scheme, and not the OL or Willy. The blame is on Bellefeuille.

So if Winnipeg and Toronto finish the season tied, Bombers get in the playoffs?

If Bombers win out and BC and Toronto lose out we're in baby!

Pretty sure he's got a fall back option to work in the pharmaceutical industry.

Agreed. He makes big money so it'd be nice to have his salary off the books and throw that money at free agents.
