Well he used to be pretty cranky all the time, but now that he's getting laid, he's more of a neutered puss.....

Just my opinion of course, but I would hope that our G.M. could carry himself with a little more dignity.  Kudos for his enthusiasm though.

We need to get this guy at IGF for Bomber games!

On second thought, Dancing Gabe might get jealous, so maybe not...

Is that Wade Miller?

That must cost a fortune ;-)

LOL!

 

what's Edmonton's weakness on their defence?

 

Not sure there is one.

LMAO - nice answer. But sorry boys - Edm's strength is their Defence, and they have no weakness. They have ferocious pass rushers, outstanding LB's (led by McCoil and Sherrit) and a very solid secondary. I guess if there is one weakness it's Muamba at Safety.

But, last year - Drew Willy was absolutely terrible here and thankfully got hurt on a safety sack (just for the rest of that game) or it would have been really ugly. Last year the Esks outscored the bombers 67 to 12. That's pathetic. 

 

Are the bombers better this year? Yes

 

Are the Esks better? Don't know - luckily for us the Esks have Nichols as a starter - but our defense can make Nichols look like Warren Moon easy (they usually do make 2nd and 3rd string QB's in Edmonton look like all stars - especially games in Commonwealth).

 

I'll be at the game, will most likely leave early in the fourth quarter when the score is 45 to 3 to Edmonton - and I'll get more Kal Tire $100 coupons - so there's always that. Bombers always play like **** here and I see no hope for a pattern change. 

 

BTW - headline in the Journal today - "Bombers have been Eskimos' Pinata" - how apt.

You need to stop smoking that stuff.

I'd like to know how much the Esks paid him to write that post...

Haha, I picked Winnipeg right off the bat .

@BobIrvingCJOB: Odell Willis says bombers o-line is among the "average" o-lines in the CFL. Anxious to see how that plays out tonite-it's on 680cjob 4pm.

Well he isn't exactly wrong.

Nothing - tell me Noeller - when was the last good game here? Funny, Every year I post my 'drivel' here about how bad the Bombers play here and get 'smoked', and every year you and others give it right back to me like you're all in a severe memory lapse and have no idea what happens in this stadium. And every year, the bombers stink, they get blown out, and no one says "gee, you were right" or even if they do, next year, same thing. 

 

Look up the Edmonton Journal if you think I'm 'making things up'. Eskimos destroy us in Commonwealth every year. Last year, our D played great - turned the ball over twice deep in Eskie territory. First time - two and field goal (Willy did nothing) - second time - Willy completed a pass - to Dexter McCoil who ran it back for a TD and the rout was on. 

 

Not saying I 'hope I'm right' just telling you what I'm expecting. Another Wpg Blue Bomber colossal meltdown - just like they do every year here. 

The past means nothing, tomorrow cannot be known, it is what they do today that counts.

Bombers can win this game. Will they? How the hell do I know? If I could tell that, I'd be a rich man. The point is, I'm looking at this game as a chance to win a big game. I really don't care what you expect.

Cool - that's fine. We all have our opinions don't forget. I just find it funny how people here forget how bad the Bombers (generally) play here. I personally have no idea why. Though the best game I ever saw at Commonwealth was the introduction to Khari Jones - who came in in the second quarter for an injured Kerwin Bell and played great. Though Dan Crowley - a THIRD STRINGER - for Edmonton had close to 500 yards passing and 5 TD passes in that game as Edmonton won 51 to 49 or something like that. I was very entertained but even then - third stringer = Warren Moon in this stadium for whatever reason. I have a feeling Nichols, who has been under a lot of heat here - is going to have a coming out party today. 

Edmonton's D is fantastic. I will say they are weak at safety however.

 

Yeah, last year, they handled us pretty well, however it is a new year.

Matt Nichols is slightly better than Brohm and far worse than Marve. 

He isn't even in the same stratosphere as Willy.

Is Cauchy Muamba seriously the Eskimos starting saftey?

Ryan Hinds is, no?

No but he does go in when Hinds is hurt or needs a rest. One can only hope that Hinds goes down early

the fat naked guy video messed up my internets.
