My Little Pony, folks!

I may be worried if I'm Calgary. I'm expecting the defense to come out very scary,I expect Calgary's rookie qb to be under siege all day,the team will be even more fired up with the return of Harris. 31-9 Bombers.

It will be nice to watch a game on a Sunday for a change, getting Harris back is huge for your team and your city and province. Hope you beat the Stumps , your team will be on a mission

Yup 

I think the rookie will be running for his life , with that D line you guys have

Hoping for a pick six!!

BC winning last night puts the pressure on us. Lose this one and we're tied with Calgary and BC.

Toronto taught other teams how to beat us. Control the lines and stop the run. I don't think Calgary has the horses to control the lines and Harris being back makes stopping the run way harder.

I expect a one sided game, but you never know.

I just want a Bomber win.

Bonus if we get Dickenson to lose it

Iz gun rain so should be fun. 

Toronto showed what happens when you play a team back to back and your qb has his worst game as a bomber

Also hope for missed field goals and poor and dropped passes. Or are we pretending that it was all on the argos for that showing by the Bombers last week?

It would be good to see dickensen waste a time out, or a challenge. a bit of pouting and whining , angry face would be nice; which is a cinch to happen.

Any thoughts on various park and ride options...? We're staying at a house on Pembina and Waller and thinking about pubs or breweries (Stone Angel??) that would allow us to park and hopa shuttle or something. Anyone with this game day experience, would love your feedback. Thanks!

Found parking near the stadium with good brews. Go Blue!

There you go again, pretending that it was all Bomber mistakes that led to the whupping we took. No credit to the Argos for outplaying us last week.

I expect we will lay a whupping on the stumps....partly because they have a rook behind centre AND the loss to T.O. didn't sit very well...Do we expect to win em all in 21'??not likely but most of them should be in our reach ,considering the talent we have on this club..I think the games on Labour Day and the Banjo will tell us a lot BUT we don't want to look past this one tonight

It was a back to back.  Did you expect it to be different than any other back to back scenarios over the years? Why is losing the 2nd game on a back to back when you win the first so doom and Gloom. Played like ****.. in the end lost by a TD really.

Truth. The argos are talented and well coached. That's a hard game to win. Get used to it we have a couple back to backs home n away series this year. 

This could be a bellweather game. If the Blue give the Stumps a beatdown, it will bode well for the rest of the season. If they turn in another putrid performance, that would be a very bad omen.

Oh no I have said multiple times the argos outplayed em, but there you go again pretending that the Bombers didn't also contribute through their own mistakes. But things happen in games, you choose to ignore one side and then pretend you're objective.

It's just parody now. We all know the Bombers are terrible and are lucky to be in the league. Thank goodness there's no relegation. 

Maybe, we'll get lucky and the Stamps will just be terrible on their own. Poor Bombers. 

The Stamps have a few injuries so if the Bombers win it doesn't really count. The Bombers arent planning the Stamps at their best.

Win over the fading Stamps means nothing, we haven't played the Riders yet................

reading that the stamps have some injuries on O line, so, bad news for maier if the replacements aren't as good.

pretty sure parades will have a good game. thought he retired.

stamps fan site says they have a new D end, played few years in "the league" so we will see what he does.

their running back litre, is a Canuck, kind of a not pretty running style, but he's effective. he seems like a nineteen sixties kind of ball carrier. 

not sure who to pick out for Bomber D standout, but might as well say Willie J. probably safe choice.

offence.... Collaros.

 

2019

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers outscored the homeside 27-0 in the second half en route a 35-14 victory in the CFL Western Semi-Final.

I started by saying the Bombers made 2 big plays that put 14 points on the board for us. That's not ignoring the good things, it's giving the Bombers their due. I'm not pretending that the Bombers didn't make mistakes. We all know they made mistakes. I'm saying that the game wasn't lost simply by Bomber mistakes. The loss was mostly due to the Argos badly out playing us on that day. That's why I don't agree with your 'do you see the Bombers making that many mistakes again' line of 'reasoning'.

Now on to today's game. I expect it to be a one sided win for the Bombers.

Hey, if not......we will all be able to complain in perfect harmony...........

Richie Hall gave absolute **** to the interior of the D on the pre-game show.

good discussion starts at about 30 minutes
