Well Done.  No excuses here if you don't have a chance to win with your backups why are they on the team.  It's football injuries will always happen and are never an excuse.   The Head shot at the end did not cause us to loose the game.  Good teams don't leave it up to one call,  but for the love of god they need to get that hit out of the game,  It happens too much to all teams QB's and my feelings on that don't change no matter what jersey colour the QB is wearing.   I hope you carry the momentum and break your Grey Cup drought as every fan base that supports there team through thick and thin deserves to be part of a championship win cause it feels awesome.   Still sucks we lost thought just glad it was a nail biting quality game.  Cheers.

Good but not great game. Loved the Bombers use of Harris and Strevs in the 2nd half tho. Excellent game plan. 

Game came down to 2 things tho.. 1 team kicking fgs instead of scoring TDs and the other team scoring TDs on their chances. 

And turnovers. Win the turnover battle.  Win the game. 

This just in..

The Official Narrative of the game has been composed at RF.

"Woulda won if Collaros played..so , in a way, we won and completely vindicates everything we did."

Adjust accordingly.

I fail to see the need for this in this thread. We have come here and humbly congratulated Bomber fans on the win. Its actually been quite civil. Yet you feel the need to stir things up... craving attention? Things must be pretty quiet over in the Eastside.

That's the same story we've told for the last decade or so about the Bomber/Rider grey cup.

If you're accepting the loss without all the silly mitigating currently making the rounds, I salute you.

Difference being Glenn was a MOP candidate that season. Our backup had zero reps.

Did you read my earlier post on this very thread... the one where I congratulated everyone here without a single excuse? 

And while there are no doubt angry fans on RF... there is an entire thread there congratulating the Bombers on their win.

Thats cool bro but you's in blue and gold country right now so... It is what it is. We all have fans who refuse to face the facts. Nothing wrong with pointing that out.

You're absolutely right. I know where I am... all I was saying was maybe this wasnt the right forum to start up that discussion. There was a lot of humble pie being eaten and some sincere congratulations posted here... but you're right, your territory, your rules. 

Congrats again. Good luck in the WF!

True. But as you are no doubt aware there are only three or four opinions that actually matter over there. They write the narratives.

Sorry, but he was assuming Saskatchewan "mating" rituals or lack thereof.

When I peeked yesterday at that thread, there were damned few congratulations and a lot of hand-wringing and gnashing of teeth.
