GDT -- Game Day: Does Anyone Still Care?

...I mean, I do....but does anyone else? I'm not rose-coloured enough to think about playoffs, but I'm not ready to start thinking about next-season-auditions yet, either. 

 

So, I dunno about y'all, but these days I'm watching for the sake of watching a good football game. It's always fun to watch the team win, regardless of what it means in the big picture. 

 

Here's hoping for something to cheer about.....

  • Yes, I still care.  I am a realist and there isn't much hope for this season beyond making the Miracle on Ice look like the Broncos beating the Jaguars.  I don't care that the Bombers haven't won a ch

  • It's football, always gonna watch it, always going to care if they win or lose or how well they play. 

  • these final games for the Bombers ought to be a ruthless evaluation of personnel. their talent, their upside, if they're in decline, if they are good value for their contract, if they hustle from whis

what's personal? I'm making observations about the way you behave, you don't want to be called a grumpy old man stop acting like a grumpy old man!

I would be encouraged by the Bombers not being humiliated. Yes, its come to that for me. Everything I've seen in watching interviews with Burke and the players after a game says that Burke is completely lost and is just playing out the string at the expense of his dignity to keep getting paid. Worse yet, the players know it.

That's why you play an import at middle linebacker, Adam Bighill is the best player on the field tonight, monster game so far.

For me it's really hard not to.  I'll cheer the same way and be as passionate as possible sitting in the stands whether we're 12-0 or 0-12.  I'd take a bullet for this team. 

 

You must be looking like swiss cheese!

timmy needs to take a bunch of knees here, his go-to.

Or play Goltz......Hall and Boltus stink.

This game should put at ease any minds who think the Bombers have a hope of winning out. They won't win another game.

Horrible game...the D deserved better.

I thought Denmark deserved to be benched in his first 9 games of the season, but man hes played well lately. 

Love the fans cheering for Buck

 

God know there was nothing else entertaining about this game.

Big props to the fans for having some fun and hanging in there. Ovation for Buck (even if it was sarcasm directed at the Bombers) was classy and apparently meant a lot to Buck.

Good thing we have TSN announcers to let the GM know he should talk to muamba about a contract extension.

That pass Boltus threw to Denmark in the end zone was a laser beam, nice arm on the kid.

I like how Terrence Edwards responded when asked what he thought of Buck's standing ovation.(basically politely implied the fans are idiots)

 

Shame on people pretending the cheering was solely for BUck, 95% of it was ingnorant sarcastic and senseless cheering. Had we been winning there would of been no "we want Buck chant" and no standing ovation when Buck finally came into the game.

 

Wow Bob Irvin and Doug Brown are sickening me.

Nothing sickening about it.  What they said is true.  Team is lucky to get the support they get based on the lack of effort/execution out there this season. 

 

Stewart can take the bus out of town with Kito.

The highlight of the game for me? Now there should be no doubt in anyone's mind that Buck Pierce is atrocious no matter what team he's on.

Can someone recap what Irving said?

Bob just said that our OL is just as good as BC's - its the offensive scheming that is the problem.

 

Brown and Bob seem to agree that the problem in Winnipeg is lack of a quarterback.  Interesting take...  I'll consider that.

 

Brown said that the story about Labatte leaving because Wpg asked him to play Centre was a load of crap.

 

Bob makes a shocking announcement... Zach Collaros is on the Blue Bombers 'radar'.

 

Sounds like some fans might have been drinking tonight.

Watched the game in absolute disgust.....  

 

Max Hall is garbage but at this point rather have him playing then anyone else we currently have.       

 

Stewart should be cut/fired/sent home asap... couldn't be bothered to touch a downed player in the first quarter when the game was close?  WTF was that.

 

Hall had some time to throw... made awful awful passes... his arm is extremely noodle like and I don't give a flying F if people think he has finesse.... the guy can't throw on the run for crap.  Give me Reilly / Burris / Andrew Harris all who can scramble and throw the ball more then 5 yards.     

 

Ford will be gone next season,  same with I assume 80% of the team since they play liked absolute shite.   

 

Aside from our D-Line I would have no issue blowing up the whole team.  Nothing at all redeeming out there.  

 

Burke should actually pay the fans money for fielding such crap.....  total joke and totally embarassing. 

 

I was ashamed/embarassed that the BC Lions were getting our fans up and excited and getting us to cheer Buck on.  How F'ning embarassing is this.      Mike Kelly era wasn't this bad!!!!!!

 

Reinbold era... at least Jeff looked like he gave a **** despite losing like crazy.

Thank you for the recap.....

 

I didn't think our o-line was that horrible... still not good enough but definitely better then what we have had before.   2 new guys to the CFL is very hard for them to pull off.  

 

The Blue will *have* to sign experienced CFL O-linemen for next year...   also Marcel Bellefeuille,  Tim Burke both have to be gone and new fresh regime needs to come and start with a clean slate.

I don't care if they choose to not bring back Bellefeuille, but he doesn't exactly have a lot to work with out there.

Bob said BC's line wasn't too much better than ours.

 

Boy playing those 3 imports on the OL sure helped. Knapp was awful at guard.

Listening to Burke now...  Irving sure sets up some floaters for him.  Poor Bob, he deserves a better team.

Bob feels sorry for him. He always takes it easy on the guy. He reminds me of attending a funeral & talking to a family member of the deceased.

Brown said that the story about Labatte leaving because Wpg asked him to play Centre was a load of crap.

Wasn't DB the one who wrote the story and continued to go with it up until now ?

 

 

As for the game itself, I don't even know what to say about this team anymore, looks like a bunch of players either don't care or our coaching staff has no idea what their doing................ could be a bit of both.

I don't care if they choose to not bring back Bellefeuille, but he doesn't exactly have a lot to work with out there.

 

 

Boltus is here pretty much entirely because of Bellefool.... we want to keep a guy with evaluation skills like that around? 

Boltus is worse than Goltz and that's saying something. and Bellefool is not the answer.
