Hat guy vs Jerks Vol 2
You don't pull your starter in a one score game... the blow outs against Tor and Ott were the times that Streveler should've played more... and been given the full play book...

I know what you mean... I also drink a lot more when I'm just with my kids...

2019 CFL Season: Around the League
Right now, I’m glad the coaching cap exists... otherwise I could see MLSE making a call to Mike and Kyle this off season with the ol “whatever they’re paying you, we’ll double it”...

Rivalries, Late Starts, & Game Days - Attendance
I used to take the Southdale park and ride in the mid-2000s... those were some rowdy bus rides... we got in trouble more than a few times for alcohol consumption... surprisingly no tickets or arrests though ... good times!...

Rivalries, Late Starts, & Game Days - Attendance
These two points from @Geebrr and @Rich are 100% correct... those who don't like the stadium location come up with all this revisionist history about how easy it was at polo park... I can often remember sitting in traffic in my car or on a bus for 20-30 minutes without even getting on to Portage... and they act like they parked right outside their gate and just drove off the lot...

I suppose that's true but they serve different purposes... Orlesky provides updates while Sanchez provides analysis... there's probably a different standard...

ALLCAPS @ Bombers game day
Darrin Bauming continues to insist on using the term "healthy scratch" for Matthews... while it is possible he is almost healthy and he certainly is scratched... "healthy scratch" is a nice way of saying benched for performance or other issues... I believe it's more of a "rest up so you're healthy in the long run" type of scratch...

Toronto @ Calgary
I wonder if TSN is ready to close the book on James Wilder being an elite player...

CFL Commentators and Personalities
I don't mind what he says... he's just not a good broadcaster... he's been doing it for a couple years now and he's still fumbling over his words and not able to articulate himself properly.... compare that to a guy like Chris Bosh... he was basically making his broadcast debut on TSN working the Raps final and he speaks on camera like a seasoned veteran...

I figured Calgary and Edm had minor pro ball similar to the goldeyes...

I highly doubt Edmonton, Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal and Calgary have less sporting options than Winnipeg...

Regular Season Bomber News
A few things wrong here... - first "the trinity" @Noeller is referring to is Miller/Walters/O'Shea... - The biggest difference between Mack and Walters is that Walters is willing to own his mistakes and cut ties before it's too late... Mack just doubled down on those mistakes b/c he's the smartest guy in the room.... and saying that Mack never scouted a single one of his draft picks isn't exactly an endorsement for him... - finally, we have no idea who made those comments about Mack... I think it's likely someone not even associated with the Bombers anymore maybe not even in the CFL anymore... Maybe Burke haha

Ottawa Redblacks In Town Part 2
you're kind of proving his point... I agree that the game plan was bad and Calgary out-coached the Bombers in every facet... but to suggest Nichols played good in that game is ridiculous....

Ottawa Redblacks In Town Part 2
I'm not sure which GDT you were reading... but I recall Chip being almost exclusively positive during the Argos game....

What a crazy story... this from Bleacher report in reference to a brawl between the Rangers and the fans: "Ken Aspromonte, the manager of the Indians, realizing that some of the Rangers' players lives were in danger, told his players to grab bats and help them out."

Let's hope the only "product" being "revealed" is on-field... from this point on...

Did anyone else notice how often Jefferson was beating a double team.... getting held by BOTH guys... and still not getting the holding call??

Week 5 Takeaways
Funny I was mentioning to the guys at the game that the guy Jefferson was taunted actually ended up making the tackle...

Locker from CanadInns Stadium
I'm disappointed to hear that this locker no longer brings you joy...

Argos at Bombers - Game Day
brilliant... that's even better than I expected... so many ways to insult the Argos, they didn't even have to mention 0-3....

Regular Season Bomber News
well at least he helped us win that epic Thanksgiving come back game against BC... Steven Jyles' high point as a Bomber QB....

Argos at Bombers - Game Day
LOL... bunch of ignorant clowns... I suspect our social media team (the best in the league, BTW) will have a clever response for this
-
EDM @ BC
This makes the most sense... By my count that had 9 starting Canadians last night... 4 OL, 3WR, MLB and a corner... get two imports on that line and start from there..

EDM @ BC
diapers don't burn... does that help?? Mike O'Shea had less experience... Claybrooks obviously hasn't looked great so far but it's a little ridiculous to write off a coach after 4 games...
