Yes, the home team gets the love during a broadcast and TSN as a league partner should promote QBs but...c'mon Glen. No question that Fajardo was better than Streveler but that was a pretty low bar.

Pete Catan's Ghost Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Did anyone else notice how long the refs held up play on the goal line plunge by Strev? Our O were chomping at the bit, wanting to run a play while two of them stood on the line of scrimmage gesturing madly. I'd be interested in knowing what was happening.

captaincanuck12 Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Just catching up on all the discussion here... Wow sounds like the Bombers were royally screwed on this game. I hope we absolutely demolish them on Saturday. When Bob Irving complains about officiating you know something is up.

kelownabomberfan Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 I'm too lazy to look it up - why did we not get the single point on the kick off at the end?

GCn20 Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 17 hours ago, TBURGESS said: The rule doesn't say you can't hit the long snapper. It says you can't hit him while his head is down and it wasn't in this case. You are wilfully ignoring half the rule. The rule states that you cannot hit the long snapper while his head is down and he is in a vulnerable position. His head was slightly coming up but he was DEFINITELY still in a vulnerable position. Therefore, this was a text book dirty hit. BigBlueFanatic, NorthernSkunk, Mark F and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFL said: Check the rosters how many other teams have had to play without their starting QBs including Sask? The thing is..Fatardo is their starter...and really not a good one....Collaros may have been coming into season by default as they had nobody else so had to sign him, that being said if he didn't get hurt...they are probably puttering along with 3 wins at most with him leading the charge..Fatardo caught fire in a bottle to start the season, but you slowly see him reverting to what he is..average at best and it will come very apparent next week when once again against a good defense..hostile territory with crowd noise hampering the offence..i bet they again score mayyybeee 1 TD...if that...they won kudos to them, but we pretty much make one less mental error, or one less uncharacteristic penalty...we win..if and buts...but it is what it is... And against good defenses...I tossed Mtl in there as well in 5 games he has thrown for 934 yards..(186) per game..1 td vs 4 picks...hardly awesome numbers by any stretch...good teams...they can't score with any consistency...in games not T.O...OTT...BC they have score 17...19...17..24...10...if that doesn't say anything about their "prowess" or lack there of against quality teams...not sure what does then Edited September 3, 2019 by Booch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100%. The player may not have been specifically "coached" to do that. But, the players are "coached" to do it when you create an atmosphere where that kind of stuff is tolerated. Say what you will about O'Shea, he would never tolerate a blatantly dirty player on his team. Dickenson is a POS. I dislike both the Dickensons.

Booch Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 I used to long snap...pre and post rule "augmentation" even before it was changed there was rarely a shot like that...guys just don't do it unless they are a dirty p.o.s....or are "influenced" from the sideline to try and get their team an advantage Adree on Oshea...some people say he was dirty..played outside the rules..etc..etc....but he was an oldschool player...played mean...played aggressive...but didn't do blatant dirty things..over..and over....every guy has taken liberties in their careers...it happens...but there are also outright intent to injure things that occur at times..and that is a different animal all together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
