O'Shea's mistake to over-kick the coverage, Medlock should have punted 45-50 yards along the sidelines.

Yah, so what? That's no reason not to build up a bitter rivalry between two Eastern teams.

Wondering why a LD weekend rivalry has not been established between the Als and the RB's yet? It's been 4 years and there's room for a second game on Sunday or even on Sat. It seems like a natural fit considering their proximity to create a heated rivalry like other CFL teams enjoy with their neighbours, plus it creates so much more publicity than a regular season game. Perhaps Troy Westwood could offer some suggestions to get it started.

Frederick is not likely 100% healthy, in O'Shea's last presser he said he had a lower body injury.

Agreed, when Dressler lined up at WR this year he was relatively quiet, his best games have come from the slot position. If Sheppard wants to keep the job over Mayo this would be a good game to demonstrate the reasons to do so. He probably has the upper hand on the blocking front but haven't seen him demonstrate much YAC ability.

Holy crap! This deserves it's own thread. We've only been through this 147 times already. It's getting to the point when you no longer pay any attention to the status of Mulumba or Bilikudi, much like when you hear a rumour that Trump said something stupid again.

I'm sure it happens that a player tires of biding his time sitting in reserve and asks for his release, we just never hear that side of the story. I recall that Castillo was well into a career in education last season when he got the call from the Bombers, it may be that he wishes to carry on with those plans as well.

That is a little too Tamanesque for my liking.

Shouldn't have to rely on him much unless Shologan or Cummings go down. Riders don't have much of a running game so an occasional spelling shouldn't be noticeable.

Facing a tandem of Messam and Cotton could be frightening, especially if the Stamps O-line can still punch the holes that Cornish used to gallop through.

I think Hardrick spent some time with the Riders as well, but not sure if it was before or after BC. Glad he got his spot back from Foketi, love the guys enthusiasm.

Stamps pick up Paris Cotton. Good to see him get another opportunity, excellent scat back. http://www.stampeders.com/2016/09/01/cotton-added-to-practice-roster/

If only they could get Castillo into the top 4 it would be a Bomber sweep. Somebody obviously knows what they're doing when it comes to recruiting kickers and stealing away the best.

Mitchell has been out of the game what, two years? How the hell does a guy in his condition get in playing shape when there are only 3 months left in the season?

I sure would like to see Dressler, Denmark, Smith and D. Adams on the field together, I don't foresee height being an issue. That is one solid receiving core, sprinkle in Kohlert for blocking and ball security and they could compete with any receiving group in the league.

Twasn't a cheap shot, Turner wasn't the only one who didn't hear the whistle.

Bond also played RT in both pre-season games and looked good. I'm confident he can play that position with ease when needed, best find of the year. Apparently he upset Bowman by feeding him lines from "Porgy and Bess" between plays, Bond assumed the role of "Bess" and Bowman was supposed to recite the lines of "Pappy" but unfortunately could only respond with animalistic grunting sounds.

Adams was given a decent shot, despite having good height and speed his hands just didn't seem to be good enough.

I agree Nichols has to get more TD's in the EZ but I am not confident any of the other QB's currently on the roster could have won 3 of the last 4 games and that's what counts. The exception being the delayed Ti-Cat game which I'm sure even Neufeld could have QB'd them to a comfortable victory.

Disagree, Nichols is doing an excellent job of not turning over the ball right now, I believe one pic. thrown in 4-1/2 games.

Anyone have a link to the Bowman interview?

Have to laugh, I passed through MJ a couple of weeks back and saw two athletic black guys dressed in matching sweat gear walking down the street. The thought did cross my mind.

If only it was that simple. The lesson learned should be not to assume the previous regime were complete morons and dispose of an entire team in one fell swoop. If they would have inserted some key personnel into the lineup and continued to upgrade as the season progressed they would probably be in the playoff race along side of the Bombers.

Should make for an entertaining off-season.

Bombers have the best ST in the league and Medlock is a huge component of that.
