  1. In today's presser when asked directly about a switch out O'Shea stated that Neufeld was getting reps. in all O-line spots and that he was a very versatile player. O'Shea almost has this non-answer stuff down to a science.
  2. Garza. Sammy ******* Garza. Was that the son in law? Yeah. He was the son in law. I worked on the ham line at Canada Packers with Mike Murphy back in the day, he wouldn't let me near his sister so she settled for Sammy. Did Jack West (wesloski) work there in HR when you were there? Spend much time at the Chalet? Or am I thinking old plant on archibald and Marion.... Sorry Rod, missed these questions. Didn't know Jack but I only worked there a couple of summers and yes it was at the old St. Boniface location. Half the Murphy kids had jobs at CP because the GM lived across the street from them in River Heights. One of the company nurses was Cal's wife. Chalet? Oh yea, well before it lost it's soul and became Teasers.
  3. It seems Zach Anderson is the unmentioned man this season but on a lot of plays he is the one being double teamed.
  4. Here's another interesting stat. for all of you number crunchers. In 5 games Willy has been knocked out twice. How in the hell can the Bombers ever hope to protect him from serious damage?
  5. It would be in the best interest of all parties if O'Shea would pro-actively address this **** storm and clarify Marve's status in his pressers instead of letting rumours rule the day.
  6. On most occasions Willy runs out of desperation, not intentionally and exposes himself to heavy hits trying to achieve a first down. If you re-watch the first BC-Rider game, Lulay did a masterful job of running by choice, gained over 100 yds. and was never hit at the end of a run.
  7. Good points, I imagine Marcel's time in Mtl. attempting to defend Calvillo has greatly influenced his choice of systems. Unfortunately with his skill-set Drew Willy has little hope of being anything other than a 3 step drop back QB.
  8. You need to stop looking at the stats. and re-watch the game film from last year. By hook or by crook Marve makes things happen, moves the ball and scores points. Much like Collaros did when he first subbed for Ray he relied on his ability to throw on the run. Call it chaos if you like but a smart OC would figure out how to harness that chaos to the teams advantage without stifling it. Austin and Condell seem to have figured it out. As for playing Marcel's system it is a verifiable QB killer and it's a miracle that Brohm escaped from Edm. with out major damage. Marve has a front row seat to this carnage and with his history of knee operations, I'm sure he's developed a strong belief in his own self-preservation. Do we really want to see Marve take the kind of shot that Willy took to his knee?
  9. I have three questions.... 1) Why do you need to carry around a gun? 2) Have you ever needed to use it to defend yourself and/or your loved ones/property? 3) Do you train regularly in use of your gun to maintain proficiency? (like the police and armed forces personnel do) 4) You may trust the gun in your holster, but I don't. And I don't trust half the psycho's out there who do. 1) I don't carry a gun. It's illegal. But if I could I would, simply because if rather have it if I ever did need one and hope I never would. (Ever had a neighbor break down your door and try to kill your roommate?) 2) No I have not. But could have used one once if I had one at the time. (See above) 3) Yes I know how to use a gun and am a pretty good shot. 4) Not a question. There lies the key. If the angry neighbour would have had a gun your roommate would probably be dead and if you would have had a gun to defend him, you'd probably be in prison and not posting on this forum. Count your blessings.
  10. In fairness to Brohm, he did look much more composed for the one game that he was the designated starter last year before he was injured. With a short week and only one practice session the odds of him improving dramatically for BC are slim.
  11. Heard on TSN radio that Tyler had a strained ACL and may have been playing on it.
  12. I've seen little commitment to the running game from Marcel except in the first game. The promised "thunder and lightening" has not materialized so far and the two talented RB's they have are being minimized more with each passing game. I would like to see both backs on the field together more often even if they use Marshall more in a blocking capacity, at least the illusion that he might run the ball is there for the D to think about.
  13. It doesn't help that when Marcel explains the playbook to Marve that he does so only in French.
  14. You are mistaken, front page headline in the Braille World News was "Brohm Sucks Again!"
  15. Conditions had dissipated by the time Brohm entered the game, so yes he does blow that badly. Field is still wet, balls are still slick.. It's not like the humidity and moisture just disappears. Similar conditions didn't seem to traumatize the Esks. nearly as much.
  16. As Obama said recently terrorist related activity in the U.S. killed less than 100 people last year, guns over 10,000.

  19. May not have been much of a QB but that's a damn fine name for a footballer.
  20. I always try to fall over backwards.
  21. That is a desperate solution at best, it they're going to make a change find a qualified individual with a winning track record. Better to wait till the off-season and choose the best candidate available. QUICKLY!!!
  22. You're not being positive. You're a bad fan. /s Does TSN have an accessible audio archives? Looked but have not found.
  23. It's a losing business strategy tho. More commercial = fewer listeners = can't charge advertisers as much. CJOB's rating have been declining the past few years. The station is getting stale.

CJOB is well beyond stale, it's downright crusty.
  24. Brohm has been an absolute disaster in relief work, that is, combined with the dumbed-down play calling. I used to trust that Brohm would be better starting, because of more rep time, but that now has gone the way of the dodo. He simply should be better.Marve should come in as relief. If only for a change of pace. But the thing is, is he ready for backup or just relief? Which brings up our whole package of backup QBs. Certainly Marve should be in position to overtake Brohm for #2 by now. If he isn't, then something is wrong...the QBs...the assessment of the QBs, or the whole damned scenario. I just find it hard to believe somebody, somewhere in the Org. (QB Coach, MB, MOS, Danny MaC) can't do something about this tenuous QB situation. For some reason, after last season they thought they were set at QB and evenly aggressively pursued Brohm to resign which has proven to be a colossal mistake. So far Danny Mac is earning a D minus for his QB recruitment program.
