Jock Climie, sideline reporter?? holy ****... Braylon Addison! Why can’t we ever uncover these receiver gems??...

I don’t really care if people on this board want to get cocky... it’s the guys in the bomber dressing room I care about... and with leaders like O’Shea, Harris, and Bighill... I’m not too worried about that happening...

I might argue that's true... sure he put up big numbers but the team was not winning when he was the focus of the offense... when he was second fiddle to Derel Walker or Brandon Zylstra... they were a much better team...

my prediction is the only way the Riders win is if they get at least one TD from D or ST... I think they're offense is good for 10-14, at best...

I agree that JSK out would be a huge loss... but that might be the one position where we have the best back-up ready to go... Wild is no JSK, but he can handle himself...

This full list: https://www.cfl.ca/2018/11/08/simply-best-shaw-cfl-award-nominees-announced-2/ MOP: Bo Levi vs Masoli MOC: Harris vs Sinopoli MODP: Bighill vs Larry Dean MOOL: Bryant vs Brandon Revenberg MOST: Ty Long vs Lewis Ward MOR: Jordan Lambert-Williams vs Lewis Ward MOC: Chris Jones vs Rick Campbell My Picks: Mitchell because he's better.... Sinopli b/c the media prefers the east.... Bighill, should be unanimous... Revenberg b/c he's Canadian... Lewis Ward b/c 42 consecutive (or whatever it was) is very impressive... JLW b/c the leagues needs to pander to the riders... Jones b/c it guarantees the clown show will continue for at least another year...

This is hilarious... coming from a rider fan...

I suspect that game will sell out before kick off on Sunday...

Apparently they've never watched a game with Rod Black calling it... 7. MOST UNDERRATED PLAYER Luke Tasker, Wide Receiver, Hamilton Tiger-Cats (seven per cent)

I feel/felt the same way... but if we see another dud on Nov 11... I'll be fully back on the "fire Hall" bandwagon...

Darrin Bauming saying via twitter that Streveler will start on Saturday...

I would like to see the starters go in the first half and get them out in the second... or the second someone important gets slightly nicked (Harris, Nichols, Dressler) pull them immediately...

very odd... due to his lack of games he probably doesn't have the numbers to justify it... but the BC Lions are a completely different team with Lulay under center... but I suppose he's more "valuable" than he is "outstanding"...

The two hottest teams going into the playoffs will likely be the 3rd seeds in each division...

No problem with decision.... poor execution...

This is too unbelievable to not be a joke... it's not possible to be stupid enough to think that fog in the air was from a cannon that shot off 5 or 6 times over a 3 hour period...

Based on your stats here... I wouldn't go with lucky.... i would say they are propped up by 2 or their three phases... Defense wins championships (that's still true today)... but you have to score some on offense... I believe it's around 1983-1995... or something along those lines.... most old people just associate everyone under 30 as a "millennial"... which is fairly inaccurate

When I first saw this, it didn't make any sense... they would still be behind us but clinch a playoff spot... but I realized a BC win guarantees that Edm can't pass them in the standings which guarantees some playoff spot for BC... it would sure look goofy in the standings like this: Calgary* Sask* Winnipeg BC* Edmonton *indicates playoffs clinched

I think the bigger problem is that almost all of our long shots are targeted to Darvin Adams... for those who haven't noticed... Darvin can't win a jump ball to save his life... catch him in stride, sure he'll make the play... but don't expect him to win a 50/50 ball... I'd like to see some jump balls thrown to Kenbrall Thompkins... I know it's a small sample size but he won a perfect 50/50 ball in pre-season action... and he would've never lasted 5 years in the NFL without having that ability...

Funny thing is if you watch the replay of the Adams TD... he looks back just before showboating into the endzone... I think he saw it was Edem in chase and he knew he was fine!

I really love the way the Bombers are employing Streveler... He is getting valuable game action while still learning behind a great pro and great leader... My hope is that we continue this into next year while Matt continues to be effective... then Streveler takes over the reigns starting in 2020... The ideal scenario would be if Matt sticks around at a reduced pay as a back-up... but that's probably asking too much as he would likely get opportunities to start elsewhere... Also, it's entirely possible that Bryan Bennett continues to develop and becomes a reliable back up....

I'd have to imagine Gray's impact will be minimal this year... but if there's an injury to one of the middle three and the coaching staff determines he's the next best guy (rather than Couture)... then he might get in the game... either way, this is a great signing for depth and the future of the o-line...

But that's not even remotely close to the point I'm making... I didn't say, if you don't watch the games live, you're not a fan... I appreciate that life gets in the way.. I've missed three homes games this year and probably haven't missed three games in the last 5 years combined... What I am saying is when you do watch the game... if you are truly emotionally invested in a team... you will feel everything cheering for your team... no matter the circumstances...

I actually kind of agree with you... watching the Esks play yesterday I'm not sure they'll win again this season... but that being said, I also don't have much faith in the Jennings-led Lions... With Lulay, the Lions are in a race for 2nd right now...

agreed... that's part of winning those 50/50 balls at a lot better rate than 50/50...
