You got it Park Pontiac! The Bombers hung tough and out gritted the Ti-Cats for the victory and in the end despite all of the analysis of what could have been and what might have happened, that's what counts.

Just re-watched the game, say what you will about Austin's Ti-Cats but the one thing they do not do is lie down and take it. They played poorly against the Bombers and made countless mistakes but even with their second string QB and 6 T.O.'s they were still scratching and clawing to the very end.

If the Bombers can carry anything with them from the Hammy game I hope it is fight. If there is anything I expected to see from a team coached by Mike O'Shea it is fight, but sadly that has been lacking the first two years plus two games of this year. It's late coming but never to late to begin, so hopefully this is the first step in creating a team identity which reflects the character of their coach.

Let's hope for the continuation of the trend, I believe they were very close to winning a few of their early games in 2015 under Glenn but came up short repeatedly. I seem to recall that there were a couple of early OT losses that broke their whiny green hearts as well.

If you go to the CJOB "Audio on Demand" site and locate the starting time for the game, you should be able to play the audio at the same time as the video. You can only select the starting hour on the hour of playback so you might have to wait a bit until you start the video. They may not be perfectly synced but hey, it kind of works. http://www.cjob.com/audio-on-demand/

According to Bob Irving Hawkins was benched in the second half for Jones. The guy was only on the roster for 3 days prior to the game so I think he deserves a bit of slack.

Nobody can say CFL ball is boring.

...and it turned out nice again!

Wow.

Esks. are beatable but they will be pissed next Thurs.

****.

That's the point of having flexibility on the roster, they can play the best players were they can help the most.

That was a different offence and a different QB. Reilly is capable of lighting it up, Masoli not so much.

Geeze, the Esks. are marching the field with a few big plays, hope the Bombers are ready for that. It may be a good game to install Leggett back at Safety and let Macho loose to pound on White.

Happy to see Cory Watson playing a big role, he deserves success.

Easy to see how the Esk O will be a handful for the Bombers once they get rolling. Their D looks relative tame compared to last year though. Haven't heard O'Dell's name all night.

After 3 years of being beat up Reilly seems to have accepted that he can't run on every down. He's still a threat but smarter now.

You sure you don't mean Albert Johnson III?

Esks. are looking pretty ordinary so far.

Coach Campbell juked rookie coach Dickinson out of his last T.O. by pretending that they were going to boot a field goal, than changed his mind. Nice move!

The refs. look like they want the RB's to win. Nice back and forth game like this the refs. need to keep out of it, not throw a bloody flag on every single play.

Masoli is not a starting QB, he's a backup and one of the better ones in the league at that. I was surprised they didn't let him run more as he has great wheels and is hard to contain.
