  1. Obviously your comment is tongue in cheek… but there is one major difference… the BC player still had the ball in his hand, thus making him eligible to be hit… still kid of amazed it wasn’t called on Collaros
  2. Buy the $27 seats… sit in the $65 section… I’m sure there won’t be too much competition for those seats
  3. Yeah, I mean, no one around here ever talks about the Riders...
  4. It’s called a lucky break for the bombers… despite what some say, we get ‘em every now and then too 😁
  5. Riders need to keep it within 20 points?? Sorry friend, there's no chance you're getting that free dinner! 😜
  6. even if you want to ignore the rulebook and use some common sense... we've seen multiple occasions of a players hand grazing the helmet called... we've seen multiple occasions of a player gently pushing the QB after he throws it called... the eye test alone tells you in was a - dare I use the word - unnecessary hit, which is therefore pretty easy to call unnecessary roughness... or simply, roughing the passer
  7. starting to look more like Jones Town out there...
  8. I don't mind BOLO getting some good reps... I think we all know he's a player... it would be a major problem if there were two injuries
  9. As mentioned... Castillo's 2021 GC stats are all you need to know... disappointed it didn't work out with Legs... but if we need a clutch kick in November this year... I'm much more confident we'll get it
  10. easily the best move the WFC has made modern Bomber history
  11. fair... I thought Walker being in his third year had enough time... but anyways, I was just using a quick example to mirror what Edm is doing... you are right that Jeffcoat would probably be the ideal candidate,
  12. no, the penalty against Bighill last week may have ben one of the worst of all time... luckily it had zero impact on the game
  13. you might even say they were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked?
  14. the lack of DL rotation makes me nervous... not just for in-game replacement... but for wearing out Jeffcoat (and Willie, for that matter) in the early-mid season... I'd rather Jeffcoat take lots of snaps off now and be ready to go 100% in November... As for the NA rule... let me see if I have this correct... from Edmonton's perspective (because they are actually using it)... Ealy will "start" the game (i.e. play one snap) then sub out for Ceresna... then throughout the game, the can run Ceresna and Ealy for 23 snaps, as Ceresna would technically be subbing in for Canadian starter Nelson at that point... seems like something we should be using... Flipping that over to us... we could list Walker as the NA... "start" Fox... then play 23 snaps with both of them as Walker would be subbing for Thomas...
  15. it certainly doesn't help their chances... probably make the Bombers a slight favourite now...
  16. which actually kind of makes it funnier... it's probably a fairly innocent ritual, end each practice with a victory formation because the goal is to end each game that way... but word of it spreads and it starts to sounds like in their minds, they've already secured victory... Bombers start to hear about it... it adds motivation... and next thing you know, a storm's a brewin...
  17. well that's the rumour that was floating around... not sure if it was ever confirmed
  18. Dammit I need to get a lot of work done today... but now I'm tempted to do something else
  19. Been quite the change in Hammy since the 2019 season and taking "victory formation" reps in grey cup practice week... and I'm all for it!
  20. sorry, my bad... got my news mixed up and thought you were talking about Streveller... I realize you were talking about Wade, which I agree with
  21. 28 year old QBs usually aren't given a lot of time to grow... if that's the plan, a team will always choose a 21 year old rookie... that's the politics of the NFL
  22. This game confirms what all Bomber fans already know... Sask beat Ottawa... Ottawa beat Winnipeg... therefore Sask = contender and the only smart thing for them to do it sign O'Day and Dickensen to long term extensions... Get it done Sask!
  23. I disagree… reactions ranged from “desperation move for a washed up player” to “we didn’t give up much so it can’t hurt”… I’d have to check the thread but I don’t really recall anyone being too optimistic about it
  24. Collaros is going to retire as one of the all time best bomber QBs… he’s gotta crack at least the top five on this list
