    I love listening to Matt Dunigun as a colour man.. My fovourite: "BAM!!!"
    And then he followed up with a wry comment suitable for life in the trenches.
    In the post game: "He lost his legs... he was just gassed" speaking of real life on the field. He was talking about Augudosi who was being hailed as a star in Captain Obvious fashion.

    It's just a stat, with Andrew passing Milt for 4th in the all time yardage from scrimmage.
    But NO!!!
    Those statistics are more than that. To us it is a tribute, a celebration. The Bombers have had many, many heroes.
    And here are two more: not just for achievement and longevity. There is leadership,  personality, and heart. As individuals, they are different, but as Bombers they stand tall amongst our best.

    Looks like we got through the Calgary game without any serious nicks.

    We don't need a new kicker, we just need to turn him slightly to the right. Almost every attempt drifts to the left... I do not know if he ever misses right

    I am curious how Pierce is going to alternate Carlton Agudosi with RB/SB McRae ... Will McRae be used primarily on 1st down? Will he be in only when we are on a running down? Or will he just be a floater with Aqudosi the primary slotback? Ratios make it interesting.

    We need to keep the number of Canadian starters constant on offence. The ONLY solution I see is  at either S.B or FB.  Do you see otherwise?

    With Brendan O'Leary  Orange now on the six, no matter who we might sign, we have run out of Canuck receivers. This is a structural problem. We need to go to a 2 running back system, meaning the 2nd back is a FB or a SB. That young RB we cut in camp might be useful to us now for depth. This puts  Augustine on the field most of the time.

    The 4 games is actually 2 + 1+1 = 4  so this is going to be really hard to appeal
    2 games for the Masoli hit
    1 game for an earlier hit same game
    1 game for racial/verbal slurr
    0 games for celebrating it before the home crowd

    Masoli "is a player too" ... "something needs to be done"
    The TSN Panel did very well to condemn and judge Marino for his intent to injure. They noted his history and his overt celebration of his destruction of Masoli. They said he needs to be suspended for at least 3 games.
    They pointed out the CFLPA needs to focus on more than protecting the aggressor; they need to hone in on protecting potential future victims and the need for clean play. That means security for not only the player but also for his family. Such policy would make the game more enjoyable for both players and fans alike.
    There is nothing more egregious than  going after a team's pivot.

    One thing we have now and we didn't use to have is a reliable scouting staff. McManus & Goveia have done a wonderful job. They are capable of bringing iin some real studs over the summer, difference makers. Not everyone has to incubate on the PR.

    The Post Game coverage of Dane Evans was very touching for me ... watching him alone on the bench with head hung low when all his team mates had left, and then watching Arbuckle encouraging him in very real concern had a big effect on me ! Even with Arbuckle there Evans could not raise his head.
    "A scrambling Evans had the pigskin punched from his arms by safety Scott Hutter and corner Jalen Collins scooped it up for the winning score. After failing to create a successful response, a clearly emotional Evans had to be consoled on the sidelines by Elks’ backup quarterback Nick Arbuckle — who lost his own starting job last week" (3DownNation).
    I think TSN did good focusing on this real life story. Heroes are human and it helps us to know that.

    So how are we going to replace Kyrie Wilson? Injuries are piling up. Yes we have a decent PR. Maybe there is talent or super talent. BUT, nobody can match Kyrie.s experience and know how.
