Season series on the line tonight and possible tie for the Leastern Conference lead. Argos won the first 30-27 in Week 8 at home. This is the second and final game between these two teams in the regular season.

Shiltz is starting at QB.

Hey al - no I don't know him. That is HILARIOUS. I do have a music buzz friend that is an old school Lions fan.... He claims the Lions didn't have the correct footwear and that's why they lost. Fml.... He also believes Milt is "maybe a top 10 receiver all time" and "Mervyn Fernandez is the greatest receiver in CFL history and its not close".... Siiiiiiiigh. 

I thought you might have known him. What a putz Wilson is. I can't stand him. It's not that he's a Stamps homer (which he is) but such an arrogant prick on the air. I was so angry that I nearly called in but didn't. I knew he'd just mock me on air which he does after someone calls in. He'd start trashing me after I hung up. He's a rat.

That's a good point about the Argos. Good chance we'll be playing them in December. 

We'll kill them second time round. Imagine if we go 13-1 & meet them in the Grey Cup?

So why didn't we get any games against Ottawa, then?

I know. Absolutely agree.

I think argos or maybe the als make for the best grey cup. The argos dont have consistent qbing, or dedication to the run game other wise they would be a serious threat at no2. 

Bombers Ticats beatdown part 2

That would be quote the roll reversal if we meet them again.

trying to determine who's going to come out of the East for the GC is a fool's errand at this point. Impossible to call it, because it's such a dog's breakfast over there. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day, and virtually impossible to tell from week to week.

I don't care who wins the East. All I care about is Winnipeg winning on December 5th and December 12th.

I think we can safely rule the RedBlacks out as contenders in the East. The Argos ought to be better than they are, considering the talent they started the season with, but they have struggled at QB, just like the Tabbies and Larks.

Argos, TiCats and Als take turns looking like world beaters one week and then couldn't beat a CIS team the next. Zero consistency to any team in the east....

The great thing about a potential Grey Cup match up against Toronto (I know, still a long ways to go)... they might be the only team the Bombers have a bone to pick with...

The RedBlacks say hi... from the bottom of the standings.

I am really looking forward to the als/rider game- no clue how the als measure up: close game or are the als going to stomp them?

Montreal is 1-2 vs the West only beating Edmonton.

Ws = Ottawa 3X, Edmonton, Toronto, Hamilton.

With Harris behind that offense( and I think it's better than Edmontons) they could be a threat with a great running game and good WRs

Trevor Harris sucks

Honestly, I'm not sure he starts this season. They're going to run with Shiltz as long as he keeps winning, and I don't think they jump to Harris after one loss either. It's Shiltz's team...and maybe Harris gets a look in camp next year.

Their record doesnt impress me either. Their versatile offense with the best rb in the league however would if they had good qbing. They got a lot of weapons. I think its gonna be a good pair of games, that we both win. 

Two games today. Nobody won their last game. Nobody above .500. Might as well give the dog a bath.

Based on the games today I would say someone is looking out for you.

Oooo which Torque? They're hit or miss for me. Imma be honest... I'm almost as excited to visit breweries when I fly home in Dec as I am for the West Final....

Prost. German lager. I am 50/50 on torque too but I am a sucker for seasonal Oktoberfest style beers.

Those are absolutely evening beers for me. I love something darker and maybe some spice in the evening. NEIPAs and other citrusy type things are my daytime go to's...
