The Most Important Game: Wpg @ Regina

Given we have not won the Grey Cup since 1990, going to Regina for the Labor Day Classic  has become the most important game of the Bomber season. The Banjo bowl supplements it but there can be no sweeter victory than beating the Roughies on their home turf in front of their "Laboring" crowd. For me it is everything, regardless of whatever else we do in a season.

I think Regina is a better club than the Alouettes so I am expecting a huge battle. I thought Lapo turtled with the offense after halftime. Downfield passing all but disappeared. So we won on turnovers 2016 style. But this is no way to beat the Rougies, Regina will turn the table on us if we try that ultra conservative play calling again. At least we won't have to deal with Montreal's blitz crazy defense. Kevin Glenn will have something to prove.

    I feel like the whole mentality of winning labour day classic being like our grey cup is over. We simply want to win football games. Doesn't matter if it's Sakschewan, Calgary, etc the mindset has to

I am curious why we've been lucky the last 5 wins, but Edmonton have been 'DOMINIATE' during their 7 game win streak?  

Cuz TSN says so. 7 wins by an average of 5 points

Pretty sure it's Migs, so I'm going to just do some confirming and maybe we'll be rid of this detriment to our Friday. 

Migs, that would make sense. It's his style of posting as well. What a loser.

TBH I haven't seen TSN say we were lucky, just that we've been figuring it out how to win...  Now the drivel I've seen the Rider fans been saying...

You mean the guy who has 4 GreyCup rings?   What a detriment.

Which is translating into what? Vince Young? Oh right second year rebuild.

Not to mention the fact he just seems to be a  complete jerkface  that likes attention.  "win with some class' is my favorite. My second favorite is Dickenson's look on his face.

Next year when you go 18-0 and win the Grey Cup, I still wouldn't want him.

Jones's personality and football resume is similar to the late great Don Mathews. 

 

It's definitely Migs, just got banned the other day on TEP too going under the name Ridermania.

Figuring out how to win is a tough thing to do in close games, no question the Bombers have done so thus far in spades.

Migs, you're a loser. You'll always be a loser. You'll always stay a loser. Even if your team wins a Grey Cup. You'll always be a dickhead loser.

Nope, it'll still be the nicest stadium in the league.

The nicest stadium around doesn't have communication and lighting problems.

Last 3 years is irrelevant to this year, unless of course you are willing to go back 26 years and discuss success.

your funny...you brought it up on who has beat who in the west...truth stings eh....ouch

What makes him great Mosiac? His football acumen or him as a human being?

imho, how you achieve something is as important to what you achieve.

Bombers are already half way there.  I still remember that night the Bombers won the cup, we ordered pizza from McDonalds  ;)

regina had Mcdonalds then?...I know high speed internet is relatively new :)

I remember the Bombers in 2010 signing the coach who was responsible for the 2009 GreyCup mistake.  Still shaking my head about that one.

When did the Bombers hire Kavis Reed...?

Mosaic is the newest...not the nicest. I have heard from players on several teams who still say IGF is louder, a nicer football stadium to play in and generally just better.

Mosaic looks like a generic box style stadium with nothing unique or giving any type of home field advantage design wise. Also heard too, that stuff seems cheap in it..give it 3 years and major overhauls will be going on

Who said the Eskimos were dominant during their 7 game winning streak?  They were damn close to losing both games vs the Ticats.

That's funny, other than the very close OT game in Regina in week 2, who have the Bombers beaten on the road in the west?

Nah, 8 wins in your last 22 is funny. For us, anyway. 

since Nichols took over as our starter, we've won more road games than SSK has won in total.    

would you like some more facts to go with your incessant rambling or are you worn out yet?

Im doing no different than what you do on Riderfans Mike.  Can't have it both ways. 

That said, while you ban this account I'll just sign up on another one.  Happy Friday buddy!

You will just sign up with another account?

How old are you? I hope not an adult.

I love the ignore feature... especially since it's so much easier to use now.

Migs is an adult. Pretty sad when a grown man feels he has to act like an immature pre teen here.

Simple solution. Ban everyone who posts anything about the Riders. Spoil it for everyone right, Migs? You have peas for brains. Always have.

I never know if Rider fans are actually trolling of just stupid... I mean part of me wants to believe no one can be THAT stupid, but then I see tons of the saying the same things so maybe they are just dumb. 

 

BC craps their pants after stomping the Riders one week and lets the Riders get a win and suddenly the half ******** mob thinks they're actually a good team over there. I don't want Edmonton to do any more winning but for the sake of the league maybe they need to smack the green idiots back into reality.
