Edmonton up early on Toronto. How did we lose to those guys?

This looks real good on the Stamps. I’d bet they kept BLM out another week because they thought they could beat the Als without him. And I can’t stand the way Dickerson constantly jaws at the officials. Yep, looks real good on them. 

Dickenson expected BLM to play this week and BLM said he couldn't go... Dickenson was disappointed and concerned....

Harris won as many Grey Cups as Cornish, more rushing yards, more receptions, more receiving yards, more touchdowns and more yards from scrimmage and **** Cahoon who was a fake Canadian.

comparing players never easy, especially from different times,

however, I ask myself two questions-

first- in their prime, who would I have wanted on my team in a Grey Cup, single game, winner take all

and second, who would I want to build a team around for longer term

While Cornish was a great player, I'd take Harris over him in both cases

and yes, Cahoon should not be on the list at all

Harris is the #1 skill player born north of the 49th.

Dave Dickenson is starting to get quite annoying a la Jason Maas...

Weasel, douchebag - pick your poison.

Still... love how much a whiny sore loser he comes off as in the post game interview. 

at some point I expect his whining affects some of the referee decisions so keep it up Dave.

If a decision can go either way, one side has whining Dave, other side Mr nice Khari, who would you (unconsciously) go with.

refs have to be aware of his constant whining and sour face.

If an entire team can be "entitled" it's the Stamps.

Adams Jr. got the ball with 1:40 left in the game which is the same amount of time Nichols had in the comeback over those same Als on July 27, 2017 (41-40). Apparently, that's the magic number to get two scores in the CFL.

Khari has that team playing all out - the amount of outstanding, contested catches made by Posey and Lewis was just crazy. 

VAJ is the real deal. He just wins.

If there’s a VAJ burger next week...maybe they’ll leave the hotdogs out of it...

Nothing says Montreal like a mouthful of vaj burger

Sobering that we didn't score a TD on O, against the Stamps....

True but we also didn’t allow 4 TD’s and nearly 400 yards to Arbuckle either!

Those were well earned yards - Als O was getting hit hard all over the field. 

Gotta love Khari:

I wouldn't put money on the Bombers to come out ahead in a shootout like that, either with or without Nichols.

arbuckle pass that was out by a millimeter was outstanding as was the catch.

Take a moment to look at the Als twitter account. Khari's post game speech is pure money...and uncensored too. Highly doubt the idiots running the Bombers social media channels would do the same thing sadly. Unfiltered content = best content.

That’s gold.  He’ll have them jumping over the moon for him next week.

why go I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach that Montreal just might be the team to beat?  I've always said that the mark of a good team is if you see improvement week to week... Montreal for sure fits that description... took them a bit to come together but they are playing good ball... and a gutsy win against Calgary, nobody expected them to win or pull off getting the game into overtime, but they did... Getting Posey back sure make them look like a different O too...

Calgary IS STILL the team to beat. Until I see Dickenson shaking hands with the winning coach in the playoffs or (unlikely) Calgary misses the playoffs, I still say Calgary is on top of the mountain. They will be a better team when BLM comes back.

don't you mean "if" BLM comes back this season?  first it was a couple of games, then 6 games, now it seem a little bit indefinite, which could very mean he doesn't return this season... after all, wasn't this an injury that he was aware of from before the season started and it was actually aggravated and not a new injury?

also, Montreal actually beat Calgary, not Calgary beating themself or having a bad night and being unable to execute... I think Montreal could be legit... I'll say this, we play both Calgary and Montreal twice yet this season... I'm more concerned about the Montreal games than Calgary ones... may be wrong, but...
