Yes, he's been deliberately injuring himself since he joined the CFL. 😉

That's crazy! I know we were in the East for a lot of years...but that's still crazy.

Yes our best shot at a Grey Cup appearance is to finish 1st. Anyone know when the last time the Bombers finished 1st in the West and made it to the Grey Cup?? I don't know, but I think it's way back in the '60's!

I understand your point, but WHO IS an MOP candidate in the league at this point? The 2 leading candidates up until 2 weeks ago were Trevor Harris and Andrew Harris. Well Trevor H's team is tanking, he is now injured, and he seems to throw for a lot of yardage, but that's it. And Andrew, well, not a lot of votes are going his way, rightly or wrongly.

3 Stars? Chris Streveler Paul LaPolice Ritchie Hall

Booing a Rider fan should never, ever be done in fun. This is serious stuff.

So...no Whitehead, but Demski looks to be a go.

Not always. He went on the other day about how that hit on Rempel was dirty and needed to be penalized.

Good question. It might depend on what the Bombers do with Nichols. My uneducated guess is this is what Walters is thinking, "If we don't win the Grey Cup this year, we will move on without Nichols next year." If Nichols is gone Streveler might sign here, but then again the Bombers may bring in another QB that shakes loose...i.e. Arbuckle type.

Some of them are. Yes. Derek Taylor had his stint in Manitoba so his glasses are not totally coated with green just yet. Luc Mullinder is the absolute worst

Yup. I was sitting right in front where that happened. I thought for sure a flag would be thrown. Nope. Thanks refs! (Hopefully the refs do some payback and have some calls go out way this weekend).

Guys on 620 and 650 radio out here in Saskatchewan kept saying it was a clean hit. Arash Madani came on and said it was an intentional and dirty hit for which the player should have received a penalty and an ejection. Glenn Suitor also said it was a dirty hit (and he sits in on the rules committee meetings.)

I'm guessing you're saying that because Craig coaches the Saskies...but honestly I have learned to gain respect for Craig Dickinson. He is honest, straight- forward, and humble. Dave Dickenson on the only hand, is arrogant, whiny, and bitchy. I know they have the same last name, I'm just not sure they are related...

I disagree with the 2nd part of your post - I think Nichols needs Harris (in fact I've argued that Harris has been both a blessing and a curse for Nichols - because he depends on him so much). However, I agree that (from what I've seen) Streveler will be a dynamic 2nd string QB, but may never be a good #1. I hope I'm wrong.

Agreed. But coach Ritchie doesn't coach the offense...check the stats

I checked Ticketmaster a few hours ago and it seemed like there were quite a few singles left...but that was about it. Hopefully it'll be a sell out

The Bombers may or may not win one with him as DC, but he's already won 3 Grey Cups...1 as a player and 2 as a coach.

Yes. We didn't have much of an answer for the Rider pressure. We did miss Harris

Riders are a good team. The Labour Day Regina game is THE hardest regular season game to win all year. Streveler did okay. He needs to clean up his game for the Banjo Bowl.

Yeah. I saw that right away. If that call gets made correctly, game likely ends differently.

We got lots of speed on offense. What we need is a big tall receiver who can go up and make the catch... oh, nevermind

That's a good idea. It's pretty easy to confuse Rider fans anyways.

Moose Jaw's 45 minutes from Regina. The Spa hotel is pretty nice. They got mineral water piped in there

Anybody know if the Bombers still stay at the SPA in Moose Jaw...or in Regina? Milt was on the radio in SK yesterday talking about the days the Bombers stayed in Regina and some stupid Rider fans woke up Milt and Khari at 3 a.m. and they never got back to sleep and the Bombers got blown out so coach Ritchie said "No more of that. We're going to Moose Jaw from now on."

(and then is signed by them) heh heh
