Both teams in relative free fall near the end of the season.  Think it's going to be kind of an ugly show for offenses with both teams needing their defenses and special teams to make the difference.

 

Going to give the edge to BC because I believe Lulay is ready for this and more capable than the fake QB on the other side.

any of the old-timers here remember that year where there was some sort of ice storm the night before the game and they had to steam off the ice at the old Winnipeg stadium and they played the game on a much smaller field?  I still remember the 1980 WSF playoffs against Calgary where they had to clear a ton of snow off the field before game time.

They took the surface of the field off for that game with the plows. There was very little grass left. Just mud. Remember Mark Bragagnolo's run up the middle for about 80 yards in that game?

looks like BC will be a free spot on the bingo card next year, barring some sort of miracle.  Especially if Reinebold takes the helm as head coach. 

Almost called roughing the kicker on Winnipeg, so used to calling penalties on us

Go for 2 Wally you can win this 😁

ha ha yeah it was all mud by the second half.  I was only 9 at the time so I don't remember much. This helped jog the memory banks...

 

Jennings with a  with  TD pass in garbage time. Garbage qb with a garbage TD throw in garbage time.  #justgarbage

people are talking about Mike Reilly moving west, but does David Braley have the scratch to make it happen?

bundled up in my snowmobile suit, in the upper deck on the East side.  At least we had the sun on us all game unlike those West side bums.

Everyone spends the same on players, just depends on how much they want to deplete the rest of their roster to make it happen.  They certainly won't have a veteran backup unless Lulay is going to play for peanuts.

Hervey is going to twist his arm about it.

 

Lions definitely need both a new head coach and QB.  If they don't go hard for Reilly, they're out of options other than McLeod Bethel-Thompson.

It seems to me that the Riders, Lions, and potentially Argos are all going to really need a QB with no one available(assuming Reilly re-signs in Edmonton). 

Maybe our old friend Kevin Glenn has one last run in him. 

 Reilly likes Maas, and playing in Edmonton. This Is what I have read.

Jed Roberts former DT with the Esks remains close to the team. He has said repeatedly that the Reilly era is over in Edmonton.

Well, I'd probably rather here it from Reilly himself what he thinks about his current spot.  No doubt as a FA though, I expect him to get offers.

No Wonder they won by 30+ 

 

Reinbold in BC was but a great move for Winnipeg.

seriously though... what was the deal with the Ric Flair stuff... is he just some sort of sport motivational speaker for hire now??

I believe Mosca was the connection there.
