Nothing you've posted addresses the QUALITY of this years officiating. If you're satisfied with it, we have nothing more to discuss.

So I think we know who the better RB is now
BomberFan replied to USABomberfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
so good that Anthony Allen is taking reps away from him? Good enough to make me believe we were premature in releasing him. Just an opinion, I'm not slagging anyone. Don't panic. -
Kory Sheets out for the year
BomberFan replied to AtlanticRiderFan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Should get an injury settlementWhat would that amount to? Is it an insurance thing? Considering an achilles tear is often a career ending injury, what's THAT worth?I hope he beats the odds and recovers. It's negotiated. Wouldn't be surised if he gets what he was signed for since it's season endinghttp://overthecap.com/what-exactly-are-injury-settlements/ Edit he might just sit on the IR too http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/236279-negotiating-an-injury-settlement-by-jack-bechta Thanks for the info bud. Still not clear what will happen to Sheets though. Was he signed? I apologize for my ignorance. -
C'mon man! No-one is worse than Black. I was watching LPGA highlights this aft and Blackie pipes up, "and those 3 were at her wedding last month." (About the 3 Korean girls leading the CP tournament.) Even the old lady, who doesn't watch sports and was in the kitchen says" What the hell is he talking about?, I thought you were watching golf." No-one compares to Blackies inane off-the-cuff-unrelated nonsense. No-one. I stopped reading after "I was watching LPGA highlights this aft" Nice one! Half an hour between games, no choice!

16 secs left...Need to score now for the Guarantee!

The last sack? What facemask? Elimimian had his grill grabbed on the way to the sack. No that is matters.

That may be so, but this years CFL officiating has been abominable. From TSN.ca: Last week in the CFL the penalty flags were flying. In total between the four games played there were 110 penalties for 958 yards, which is the third-highest total in the last 20 years. Obviously, that is way too many penalties. It disrupts the flow of the game, extends the length of the game, and is flat out hard to watch. And it's not just the volume of calls, but the 'quality', if you will. And that doesn't include blatant missed calls. I guess you can tell by now I am dissatisfied with the quality of the officiating in the CFL this year. I'v been a fan since the early 60's and don't recall officiating being as big an issue as it is this year. Goalie said earlier in reply that "at least it hasn't determined the outcome of a game yet." I disagree. A bad or missed call can change the momentum of a game, regardless of what point of the game it happens in. I do agree with not tampering with rules every year. Here's the ridiculousness of it: Lat year the non-PI call in the eastern final probably was the reason the PI challenge was instigated. Shouldn't the reason the call was missed have been addressed instead? Changing the rules because the officials missed a call doesn't solve anything. We need the CFL and and Teams to step-up and financially support programs to develop the quality of officiating starting at the grassroots level. If you're happy with the quality of the officiating in the league this year, I'd venture to say, you're in the minority.

Awesome non-call on the facemask on Elimimians sack on SInseri. CFL officiating at it finest!.
-
Wow! That's bloody awful. I bet he was just playing to keep his mind off the tragedy of it. Condolences. Sucks when someone you love dies.
-
That wide-open-in-my-hands drop by Baggs was priceless. For everything else you need Mastercard LMFAO!

Alex Hall and Linden Gaydosh released by Panthers
BomberFan replied to Jpan85's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You'll have to do better than that. He's a friggin beast. I'm betting you were one of those "In Mack we Trust" guys. AmIrite? -
Might be the only route we have.

Chances of Bombers signing Sheets?
BomberFan replied to Fatty Liver's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yeah that really sucks, hard injury to recover from for a pro athlete. So what happens to him financially? I don't have a clue about compensation for these types of injuries given he hadn't actually made the team. -
I am loving this B.C Guarantee!!!1 10-0, 2 possessions in! Can only hope they keep it up.

Will Ottawa win another game this year?
BomberFan replied to BomberFan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I feel bad for their fans, first year back in the league and the get dealt a crap sandwich. Somewhat in the way we've all felt here the past few years. That's all. I think if their fans expected them to be very good, they were kidding themselves. If you go back in time and look at the expansion threads about Ottawa, it was almost unanimous on this forum that they wouldn't be very good. Did someone crap in your cornflakes today or are you always antagonistic? -
Kromah likely to make Bomber debut Friday
BomberFan replied to Mr. Perfect's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Kromah had a great game Friday, I'm betting Kuale's on the bench until Kromah craps the bed as bad as Kuale does... -

Nevermind. Everything is great and I shouldn't have an opinion. Thanks for your input.
-
If todays game is any measure, I don't think so. No offense, looks like a qb from the lingerie league would have a field day against their secondary. Maybe Campbell is proof the apple can fall far from the tree. I don't hate Ottawa or anything, I honestly feel bad for them.
-
What does that mean exactly? The amount of questionable and blown calls are almost uncountable. Dunno what games you're watching...
-
Not Bomber related, but just the general crappiness of officiating this year. Penalty calls are up by 30% (according to TSN stats guys). The real problem seems to be blown/missed calls, up at least 100% (by my stats guy). Do we not have a Referee program, teaching these guys? They're bordering on the incompetence of soccer refs. And oh yeah, get rid of the PI challenge, that would be a start. The officiating in this league is Rod Black embarrassing.
