Old Bomber Fan Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 congrats to the Big Blue, they truly put on a show in terrible conditions last night. To me what they showed was a determination that frankly I haven't seen in some time although with that said they seem to be a determine bunch this year. I thought the defense played well however I will caution that by saying Ottawa's QB was not stellar by any means....many missed receivers, poor passing etc but notwithstanding they did hold them to 266 yards, their best effort to date. I liked the special team coverages and the offense save for one sequence where we put in our run QB to get a first down and then tried a hurry up offense with him on the field and throwing a long pass. My question was why have him try that in light of the weather and the cold....he has to warm up in those conditions and it showed. Other than that I thought they did a good job. So here we are in second place and doing well. I will retract some statements from earlier in the season where I questioned MOS and LaPo.... I still do on occasion but not as much as before. This team has a legitimate chance to host a play off game however to advance they will need to shore up the defense. If they do this who know what will happen. I will simply say it is nice to watch entertaining football once again but keep asking myself why is it I am on pins and needles with 8 mins to go in the 4th quarter when we have such a lead as last night? Congrats again. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it hits the ground they would rule the ball live, not dead as an incompletion. So it's a fumble, not an interception. Weird play though. Kinda like Jones blocking the punt before it was kicked. they've rescinded the call of INT....as per the league, late last night. It will not go against Nichols. wbbfan and BigBlueFanatic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 I was not cool with the hit Harris took after he was in the end zone...Unnecessary and the refs. should call those...Can't argue with the three pics but have to honourable mention Leggett...That pic off Ellingson that killed their drive after their short kickoff was a beauty...Leggett has a nose for the ball and great anticipation...Hard not to look at him as one of the top three BUT Harris,Matt and Adams are very deserving...This team is coming together very nicely Sard, Tracker and rebusrankin 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadybob Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 1. Darvin - He was locked in Friday night 2. Harris - Did not disappoint in the bad weather 3. Moe - Not even for the INT & fumble recovery, but just because he seemed to be everywhere on defence. HH: Flanders with some nice production when he saw snaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 It's too bad Darvin Adams sucks, or the year he is having would be really impressive so far. MOBomberFan and SPuDS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might have gotten further in the playoffs last year with him in the line up. Atomic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan Boy Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Umbrellas at football games are questionable in my opinion. I mean do you want to sit behind someone with an umbrella? Chaosmonkey and voodoochylde 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Bomber Fan Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 nah I'm not afraid of breaking a hip....never was off the bandwagon just much more objective than you are. In this instance pleasantly surprised at the outcome to date. Hopefully it will continue. And why is it that you have to continually throw insults every time someone disagrees with you or doesn't do things the way you think they should. Just wondering....makes me think of the spoiled kids in school who would take their ball home with them when they couldn't be the star.

Too bad speaking as a Bomber fan living far far away, there is nothing on earth that would prevent me from being a season ticket holder for the Blue and Gold if I actually lived within driving distance of IGF. Nothing. You just don't appreciate what you have. Edited September 26, 2017 by kelownabomberfan SPuDS, JCon, Rich and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that you guys are not being objective enough. The correct amount of objectivity (it would seem) is to always have serious doubts about the Bombers . You should then post these doubts in a Bomber fan forum and then become indignant when someone calls you on it. That is, it seems, how its supposed to work around here. Get with the program and start being objective! SPuDS and Rod Black 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Bomber Fan Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 I guess in order to be a "true Bomber fan" on this forum one needs to have season tickets to the game. Not sure that is valid. Yes I lived 4km from IGF however when almost all of the games were played I was a 1 1/2 hour drive away. Couple that with having to take a shuttle from St Norbert and the product and management that was presented to the fans, why would I waste 3 hours of travel not to mention another 20 mins each way to and from the game even when it was a blow out, which was often, and not be able to leave at a respectful hour in order to get back to the lake! Did the money play a part, partially but it wasn't the driving force that led me to give up my season tickets. And for what is worth, you are right I will always be THAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bomber Fan Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 guy who has been and will continue to be a bomber fan since 1953!!! Half of you I would suggest weren't even born then or a twinkle in your mom's eyes! I guess there is a new definition to a true fan, don't criticize, don't question, just shut up go with the flow and live the dream. Sorry haven't been that person all my life and never will. Still a Bomber fan much to your chagrin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
