No idea if i did this right but here is TOR depth chart...

This doesn't bode well. WPG website doesn't currently list a game for today i hope the team flew to TO lol.

Pretty hard to predict anything but a loss here. Probably 22-19. Probably another week of “we’re inches away”..

I have to watch this at a pub in Saskatoon today.... Blech. That'll only help matters, I'm sure......

I can’t imagine being less excited for a Bomber game 

I'm hopefull that maybe Ayers will get some defensive reps...as Cole and Wilson are out...and it will become visible that he makes plays...sideline to sideline...tackles before yards gained...as OverHill whiffs...misses...then again I also hope to win the lotto...as long as Osh is running things...it will be more the same...until the season is a wash...and then he will make pointless changes that will have zero use for us moving into 2025...you can book that

And when is it my turn to start a GDT?

As it sits right now I'm expecting a win for the bombers.   They've won 2 out of 3. Dukes seems to be losing his confidence. They will be keeping Grant contained. If we can limit turnovers and contain Grant i think Dukes will hand us the victory. Toronto is good enough the run but not as good as Saskatchewan. We'll need to establish Brady offensively and control the clock. 

Grant is totally running aback the ball for a TD. Bank it.

I'm excited for this game simply because it's the first game all season I get to sit at home and watch it live in its entirety.

Football wise, the only thing giving me hope is that the Argos seem to be in some mild disarray. Our secondary may be a tough test for Dukes/Arbuckle. Realistically I'm just hoping we don't get blown out. I slammed the Over on Kadeem Carey rushing yards.

One request: information on the game and such would be awesome.

Will be listening from Falcon lake. Tenting it for the weekend.

It's a special thing listening to a game on OB in your Whiteshell campsite. So many great memories of doing that at Big White as a kid...

When you wake up before noon.

Cover teams are pretty good...the punter on the other hand...

Here We Go Bombers, Here We Go ...

 

I think the Bombers will win, but it won't be pretty (see the other two victories this season) ...

go bombers go!  (literally)

Team is playing like garbage this year, it's in Toronto,  they have a bunch of injuries, there is absolutely no reason to expect a win... so they are naturally going to win.

No kidding. Not sure I’ll even bother to carve out the time to watch today. Rather go play with my kids outside. 

I'm pvr'ng it to watch after dinner. Just going to sit on my deck barbecuing while having a Jack Daniels. It's nice today. Kind of a cool. cloudy day in Calgary. After the inferno & smoke of the last 2 weeks, I just wan to enjoy some time outside. I'm not going to let a Bomber game give me indigestion or put me in a bad mood. 

Blue can win...but anything like that game in Regina.....is going to be hard on the liver

Mookie! Always the optimist! I think Grant will be the difference for the Argos. I am not sure we can put enough pressure on Dukes and I am afraid Zack is past his best before days. But hope springs eternal and I will be in front of the TV with a cold ice tea rooting for the Blue as usual.
