Another massive game, doable but this will be a test. LFG!!!!!

Looking forward to Ryan Ballantine trying to explain how we didn’t actually beat the Stampeders, that they beat themselves. 

Shoen...

Kid has been lights out. Hope he sticks around and continues to get better. Superstar material.

They marched the ball,  just need to be better in the red zone!

Said every team to face the Bombers this year. Newsflash, it ain't coincidence.

What a barn-burner last night! 

Dalton Schoen is such a delight to watch. Just a stud find by the organization.

If only they could score on us, or stop us from scoring they would win.

Back to back ROTYs (I know Williams won it but I won’t acknowledge that)

I know! when they trotted him out as a starter- I was like, "who the **** is this guy, he's a raw rookie- are we lacking in receiver depth?".

It's like the talent scouts and coaches know what they are doing....

25-3 with two Grey Cup wins dating back to late 2019....nuff said

Shoen is also deceivingly fast too. On that last go route to seal it he looked to have impressive speed.

 

Could end up losing him to the NFL

Well he has posted 4.4 forty times...so has speed...some goes tho have and keep that speed with ball in hand....a lot of guys cant

Yeah, I wasn't aware how fast he was until it was blatantly obvious yesterday.

 

As far as BLM comments goes, no problem with anything he said. Gave his kudos and said see us in the play offs. He's got fire, there team leader. No big deal

So is Schoen the first legit receiving star we've unearthed on our own, since the Taman/Ritchie regime??

Agreed, he was actually quite generous with his compliments for the Bombers.

 

“I’ve beat this team 1000s of times”? 
 

No you’re actually 0-2

You have a short memory, he kicked the Bombers ass for 23 years!

Even with his salary, I have a hard time thinking at the end of the day given Manitoba taxes, cost of living, and playoff bonuses that he would have made significantly less playing here.

MB taxes are higher than Alberta...

Absolutely! Like part of me thinks **** this guy, but hey I'd rather that then so whiny loser like Fajardo. 

 

Plus it's good for the league to have some fire to it! Bring it Bo Levi! 

Yup...agreed...screw him...but that's what I'd want my leader to say...

Agreed. I as an opposing fan can happily say "screw that arrogant arse, kick his ass again" 

 

But if I were a fan of that team damned rights I want a guy who says they'll get em when it matters.

i remember how he insulted the Bombers back in 2013 or 14 mocking how bad we were in a halftime interview on TSN. I have a long memory. Didn't like that one bit. Screw Bo. Now, it drives him crazy that we're better than the Stamps.

I have zero respect for anyone who publicly mocks another CFL team in the media. Marcel Desjardins did the same thing at the Ottawa Expansion Draft. Yeah, maybe he didn't want another Bomber player because we were so bad back then, I got it. But he should've kept his damned comments to himself. Like Bo, what was the point of kicking sand in the team's face back then?

Maybe I'm being petty but am I ever enjoying shutting these asshats up years later.

Agreed. I think it was even more recent, like 2016 or 2017 when he said that.

BLM is a HOFer but I don’t like him. On the field anyway. I think he is good on the panel.

We put up with a lot of **** from opposing fans and teams over the years and I saved up a whole giant bag of **** yous to hand out and I am nowhere near done.

My favourite was him pumping Carey, when it was Philpot that ran the ball “Oh, that was Philpot in for Carey that time, still good yardage on first down. “

How do you not get fired up watching Brady’s runs last night? He was trucking people and piles. The most physical running since guys like josh ranek and mike sellers played in the cfl. 
 

and yeah Carey is the best back right now. When healthy stanback is the best runner but Carey is more well rounded. Can’t miss picking between those two. 
 

I liked how philpot looked too. Fast and smooth. But the tsn haters were too busy sharpening their spears and pinning to write an obituary for the bombers to notice any thing else.
