Stickem

A little bit of Sask. arse kissin' and schmoozing going on there I suspect...He wouldn't make our o line for sure.....done and done

Streveler is under contract to us in 19'...and any event why the hell would he want to go to the big smoke just cuz Lapo hooks up there...He's quite comfortable here and stands a very good chance of becoming the starter with his current team,rather than starting all over from scratch...I'm not concerned at all about Streve being here long term

Bada Bing....Bada Boom.....and the Canadian Mafia at that

A designated Mexican....yikes...How about a designated Honduran,,,,sounds like they have a few in a caravan currently in Tijuana...Crazy idea ...but hey he's the commish…...for now

They play in the CFL...END OF

Interesting comments on this regime....A lot of time lines have been brought up regarding this regime.....Certainly 28 years without a Cup does not belong at the feet of this present regime BUT IF we take the 5 year period that they are responsible, I like to compare our success or lack thereof with other 'regimes'....Top of my mind is Ottawa....They totally rebuilt (granted with the help of a re-entry draft) and have seen some pretty solid growth in the same 5 yr. span....One Cup.... and another appearance in which they could easily add another...Our record looks pretty anemic when you look at theirs and I guess after all of this time I thought we would/should be a lot further along...I don't know what the exact reason is, quite frankly, that we didn't at least have a home playoff game in 18'...I do not want to see a wholesale change BUT there obviously has to be some changes..It's going to get harder and harder to pass 'little gains' in a season that will appease the long suffering fans of this team...Any sign of regression next year and I think a few coaches will meet the same fate as the NHL Oilers head coach has today.. an in season exit

I have a big concern and that is this.....We were built to take all the marbles this year....Players peak, get older and players leave....remaining a contender is going to be tough when you look down the road and see a lot will change....IF that change is positive for us...great...if not...it's eventually going to lead to another rebuild sooner rather than later...Will the fans stand for another long stint and drought searching for a winner and a Cup....Could get pretty thin in the stands and something this management has to ponder very seriously

Kicking was great....otherwise scrap it it...We broke down in contain on a lot of kicks...allowing the better returners in this league to eat us up ...Penalties on a ton of runbacks wiping out any gains leaving us starting on our 25 yd. line a lot...I don't think a single punt return or returner of any note stands out to me this year...

Especially since they both spent the same amount of time in the tub this year....no to Manny

Could we please get rid of that special teams bozo...A fence post with hair could do a better job...To say it was pathetic for the most part of the year is an under statement...O'Shea has got to be embarrassed watching that sh$t show

Nichols running game is non-existent....He has next to no escape game in him...It's either throw quick (which is when he's effective but I think he forgot for this game) or try to leg it out to the sideline ( while doing that he was too slow and couldn't even square his shoulders downfield to get the ball off) or hit the deck and get crunched.. Pretty much sums up Mr. Nichols play yesterday....Not good enough

Well that's the gist of it...Every club knows Nichols is the weak link...average at best and is almost wholly dependent on Harris's running ability...Which leads us to every club keying on Harris ...eliminate or control him and you know damn well Nichols will eventually cave...It would have helped had we had another receiver along the lines of Matthews BUT there were receivers open in that bust of a game, that Nichols couldn't get the ball to in any event...To say there were no receivers open is just plain bull$hit ...He looked like he panicked after getting flushed out of the pocket and threw the ball away prematurely...On one occasion our go to guy was covered on the sideline BUT our secondary guy was wide open and Nichols promptly threw it into the third row...He's getting very good money to play better ball than that and I'm afraid he'll never be the clutch guy we need to put us over the top...Time to address that situation or prepare to keep going down a road of futility

Streveler is the future and IF his development can be hurried along at a rapid and a respectful pace...…..see ya Nichols that playoff game against Cal. proved to me you're being way over paid and you're not good enough....Watching Bo Levi perform makes Nichols look like a backup of the third string variety...Time to re-negotiate or move on from Matt

KEYS.....GET Bo off of his game...pressure man pressure... ………….AVOID plays that run at Singleton ………....TIGHT coverage by the Db's ...............Not easy but get that done and we could be Cup bound.....oh and Mr. Manager Matt has to come up with one of his best managerial type games

I would've liked to have got a close up shot of 'Poop's face at the end of that one....Priceless....and I guess his 'very late' addition didn't provide Jones with much...You might say they 'schat' the bed

The eternal search will now commence for a qb. in riderville.....one of which we only know too well....Not easy turning up a bona-fide pivot...I know that this is also factual....they are drooling every time Streveler takes the field....Luv it heh heh

and I would demand that the league 'stop this sort of thing'...I can't believe that a suspension, with a game that is so important to us on the horizon, would be considered...That hit by Jeffcoat on Bridge was NOT deliberate no matter what all of those yokels in Reina say...

What happened to Biggie???? I missed it...He seemed alright after that chase for the ball on that pass that was clearly a lateral...I know he made a stab at the ball before it went out of bounds...Did he get nic'd on that play????Not good news IF he can't go

Outside shout out to Bennett ...our third stringer who has a nose for the ball on special teams...Made a nice saving tackle that could have changed the complexion of the game...Which brings me to something I've harped on all year.....very poor coverage on runbacks by our downfield tacklers for the most part...Little or no return by our guys is leaving us a big deficit with regard to field position,,,C'mon Mike O....I know you're not blind...that has to be shored up if we're going to give the stumps a run.....

I'm saying 5

Just look at the push they get and especially when they want Harris to pick up a few more yards ...They are a force and vastly under rated

Their D is big time over rated....Sure too tall Jefferson can be a handful and Hughes if he decides to play every down but really what else do they have....Smoke and mirrors my man smoke and mirrors ...finally caught up

Brutal holding on the riders part....How the hell can you miss that many holds when you're right on top of the bloody things.... I swear the refs. need a white cane to fill out their striped uni's..I hope we have a different crew playing Cal. BUT we persevered and it ended like it should've

Soooooo,,,,,the mirror finally cracked and the smoke cleared...riders are who we thought they were...Good game but I always felt the Bombers could have turned up the heat at any time and this one wouldn't have even been close.....Up next Cal....keep er going guys...I can smell a Cup appearance

JSK in a boot is a clever ruse....Will he play or won't he...??Big question for Jonesie ...How do we attack that D with Santos Knox in or out...lol..I think O'Shea is playing mind games with ol 'sign everyone and anyone' Jones...Mike O just screwed up all of the offensive plans for the riders and all the info Poop' provided just went out the window...hmmmmmm
