Also pay attention to how ineffective Montreal has been on 2nd down (0/12 I think to start the game before their first conversion). I plan to remember that if the Bombers struggle tomorrow.

going through my picks, I've picked every single montreal game wrong so far

I don't go to the concession during games as I don't have the patience for the lines and don't want to miss any of the game otherwise. So I basically get to my seat and don't leave until the game is over, so the concourse really only impacts me before/after the game.

It's old and showing it's age, but it's still a good place to watch football. Not really any poor seats to watch from, yeah there;s bench seats in the endzone sections and maybe up in the nose bleeds, but so what? Not like putting a board on the back makes things any more comfortable. the one time I sat on the benches at Mcmahon I was just glad the attendance was so sparse, for where the seats are outlined I don't know how you actually fit 1 person per spot. That said I'm above average in both height and weight so seating room is always something I'm looking at. The benches at Mcmahon were awful from what I recall, the actual seats are fine. The times I've been to IGF the legroom in some areas was fantastic, and seemed to be above average anywhere I sat. MTS Centre however I don't like going to on the other hand. I went to a world junior pre-tournament game there a decade ago, the leg room was bad enough I've turned down free NHL tickets because I just don't want to sit in there again.

Is she hot? I agree we need pics here. She was very HOT! In addition, usually drunk by half time. The perfect combo. Skinny and drunk with big ****, that kind of perfect combo. BUT Nooooooooo, I had some morals. I had some ethics. I was a complete idiot. Now I'm just stuck reminding myself of her from time to time when, well you know. ?

I don't think I've ever seen the Bombers win a game in person. The years I lived in Winnipeg I was a student and didn't make it to many games, and 6 years in Alberta hasn't been kind. So some fans have never seen the Bombers win a Grey Cup, I've never actually seen them win a game.

In the moment I liked the call from Tedford to try make O'shea pay for putting them in 2nd and 18 instead of 3rd and 8 and punting. They never should have been in 3rd and 2 to go for it if O'shea made a better call the play before. The upside to accepting that penalty is up to 10 yard of field position, the downside is potentially a first down. Didn't seem like a smart move from Winnipeg at the time. Wasn't 3rd and 8. It was 3rd and less than 2 yards. The penalty was applied from the previous spot. *edit* appears I remembered it incorrectly, ignore me

that's not fair. Cato was 4th string. Please compare him to our 4th string for a fair assessment

yeah what the hell was that about? All the Stamps had to do was down the ball and run out the clock, and instead they do this weird back pass thing - what would have happened if Fuller had missed the ball and it had bounced around in the end zone? Montreal could have jumped on it and scored a TD. I don't get it. hufnagel picked montreal to cover the spread on his sport select ticket so he needed to concede the safety to win

Bede isn't a Canadian citizen - he's from France. Still, considered a Natl. no? I believe the old rules more or less let anyone from another country who didn't play football in the US be a non-import (ie an Aussie rugby player looked at as a punter would have been a NI on the old rules) New rules state " Nationals are defined as a person who was a Canadian citizen when he signed his first contract, classified as a non-import before May 31, 2014, or has lived in Canada for five years before turning 18" So under the old rules I believe bede would have been a NI, with the new rules he's an international Really strange, because Bede played college at Laval. Yet both Waggoner and Westerman qualify as Natls. through loopholes. wouldn't call it a loophole, it's just the new rules. Waggoner has Canadian citizenship, so he's a National. Bede doesn't so he's an international. Although I get what you're saying in regards to Waggoner played all his football in the US and Bede played university in Canada.

still early, but so far glad I took Montreal in the pickems

This weeks pick ems are great. 3 games are basically 17 people vs 16 people, so basically 50/50. Then the other game is 32 for Edmonton and Duressler47(I assume) as the only person picking Sask

I could be wrong on this as I'm far from a football genius, but from what I've seen if we're up against a stronger D line where we aren't opening up as many holes I'd prefer to see the run game focus on Marshall and pounding for yardage. Against a weaker D line or a game where our O line is opening up some holes I'd prefer to see it tend more towards Cotton who is more likely to make a linebacker or DB miss one or one after getting through the line. Basically call the plays based on what we're being given on the field and making adjustments to it, which isn't really a very Blue Bombers thing to do.

Typo, he meant Brink not brick. He got far too excited thinking about Brink and Elliott coming back he missed a few words that would have provided the necessary clarity on our future Brink/Elliott QB combo

I know the intent of this wasn't necessarily to say Marve isn't suited to start games, but I think it's a bit early to say to split the back up role up when Marve has never had any opportunity to start a game or be the true backup But then again I'm in the play Marve camp more because I don't want to see Brohm on the field in any situation. I can't see how he could be worse than Brohm, so even if we know Willy is out and have a full week of prep, I'd rather see them go with Marve and see how it plays out.

this should be worth warning points from the admins

Poblah at QB? Marve is apparently not 100% healthy both last week and this week for what that's worth.

Did not expect it to work out when I went with Ottawa in the pick ems. Kicker better come through here.

if anyone needs last minute tickets I've gotten sick and don't think I'll be going, have a pair of tickets near midfield about 15 rows into the upper deck

For those of you going what section are you in? I'll be in G2.

I think people around here would ***** about absolutely any coach we hired. What surprised me going to Calgary for the game Saturday was how many stamps fans I heard bitching about Dickenson.

Just got home from the game my thoughts on what I saw Bo Levi reminded me of years of bomber qb's, not a good game for him Seemed like the deep ball worked the two times it was attempted, but looked like Calgary had enough pressure that we couldn't go back to it much rough game for lirim stoudemire looked rusty, hands weren't good, and too much east/west/south not enough north game was there for the taking and the team couldn't execute when they needed to Good experience with the stamps fans, much better than attending bomber/rider games where rider fans are dicks. As well able to bond with stamps fans over mutual dislike of rider fans
