johnzo Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 (edited) Four games today. OTT @ HAM BC @ CGY SSK @ EDM TOR @ MTL All games on CFL+ : https://www.cfl.ca/2024/05/09/where-to-watch-2024-cfl-preseason-games/. The Montreal game is also on RDS. Highlights: First look at Dru Brown in a Redblacks jersey and MBT repping the Elks. BLM starts for the TiCats. Hopefully we get the Edmonton radio crew on the Riders/Elks game. That Regina radio crew is brutal. Edited May 25 by johnzo Noeller, Tracker, kelownabomberfan and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 (edited) Do we have the only radio crew capable of being even a little objective? This Ticats crew is pretty homery. Brown hasn't looked great so far but he isn't getting a lot of time to throw. Edited May 25 by Super Duper Negatron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue204 Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 I dont know. I thought Brown looked calm under pressure. Made a couple nice reads easy throws. Ott will be interesting to watch. Dedmon us still deadly with the ball too. Noeller and MOBomberFan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue204 Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 (edited) Crum has looked better than Brown imo. Preseason though 1 hour ago, Super Duper Negatron said: Do we have the only radio crew capable of being even a little objective? This Ticats crew is pretty homery. I'm not sure what you're expecting. DT and Brown can be Homers as well. I heard this hammy crew call out Bo for a bad pass. They complimented Crums td pass...

I think Derek is a great guy and a huge CFL fan, and is probably going to be on TSN doing national games before long..... but I'm not sure he's really even a Bombers fan, per se. He calls a good game and is a huge CFL fan.... By far the least "homer" of all regional PBP guys. Doug is the perfect regional colour guy. He's clearly a HUGE Bombers fan and passionate alumnus.... But he's not a moron on the air like Mullinder. rebusrankin and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see much progression in Crums's game, he is what he's always been, a white bread and butter sandwich. He'd make a decent backup but that's about it.

Ti cat receiver dropped that sure TD pass a=in the end zone even though he had to reach around for it. It was catchable. Hamilton with the nomination for the leasr imaginative & ugliest uniforms in the CFL. Edited May 25 by SpeedFlex27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 I was watching best of bomber punt returns on YouTube. Friggin demond Washington had some wheels. Made me wonder. Who is the best we have had. Honestly. Jovon Johnson and grant. I’m not sure who is 1 and who is 2 tho. Jovon had several get out the seat returns. Grant tho, just couldn’t be caught.

Most memorable single game performance in recent memory has to be Moe Leggett in the 2017 Banjo Bowl, though his TD was more of a gadget than anything else Kevin Fogg was serviceable but forgettable.

Noeller Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Grant has to be the best ever. Stokes was good but as each generation is better than the last, I'm not sure anyone has been as good as Grant. Tracker, Bigblue204 and Doublezero 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what’s more impressive. Hitting the hole and not getting caught like grant or making the entire cover team miss tackles like jovon did regularly. Regardless, we’ve had a few good ones over the years. Edited May 25 by Goalie Doublezero and Pickle Rick 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That return definitely was on the video. Leggets against Sask. still confuses me lol. But I think that was it. Same with fogg. Made 1 appearance in the video. Was dominated by guys like Troy stoudemire and Jovon plus Demond and grant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal optimist Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Grant is the best if you are just considering their skill as a returner. My rationale has always been considering all of their contributions... JoJo was so good because not only was he a return threat he was a great defensive player too.
