Don’t know where to put this, but I went and watched Wolitarsky’s set at Earl’s tonight. First off, he was actually super good. Second, him and Streveler were super stoked that my buddy Ray and I had their jerseys. Thirdly, Matthews was there and looked very unstabbed. Good turnout - Strev, Demski, Willie, Stove (played a couple songs), Lawler, Sayles, Humes, Speller, Lucky, Rose, Nelson (walking boot) and Petermann all showed to support.

Sorry , boys , I'm going up north tonight to get my pike on and will be out of modernity. So please don't see my silence as ducking ( since Bombers winning is more than a distinct possibility). Cheers.

Love the JRE. And yeah I wish he would go further into detail on the supplement biz. His podcasts with novitzky and armstrong are especially great on these subjects. Hecht is as savage with the tweets as he is with the hits.

Liked for "unstabbed".

Calling it now, Jefferson is good for 2 sacks and a pass knockdown. Hammy might be smoggy but they haven't had to handle this smoke yet

I blame Ambroise for this. Clearly purposely ignoring Winnipeg so people stop realizing he's being controlled by the Canadian Mafia.

Seems I have a ton of health issues as well when returning from Montreal.

From a website called “Awful Announcing” There's a Rod Black Drinking Game that's been circulating for at least five years, and Saturday's missed field goal call fit right into it. “Right down Main Street once more. But it’s wide!” - Rod Black https://awfulannouncing.com/international/rod-black-drinking-game-missed-call-cfl.html

The punter was the hardest working RedBlack.

Some Interesting stats for the bombers and cats. 5 games in the cats are tied for the most Yards Per Carry given up on defense. Tied with the argos, the only team to give up more rushing yards then the cats. The bombers have given up the fewest yards by a mile, and the 2nd fewest YPC against. We have also not given up a rushing TD yet. The Pass D is remarkably similar for the cats and bombers. 1393-1330 passing yards against, 56.1 - 59.1 completion % against, 7.1-7.8 YPA, 4tds-8ints and 2tds-4ints. (the first stat in each category is the bombers number) The cats have 18 picks on D this year to the bombers 9. The bombers have the 2nd best rushing attack in the cfl, while the cats are 6th. The cats have the 2nd most passing yards and we have the 2nd fewest. Its a battle of the 2 best punt return teams, and 2 of the 3 best kick off return teams. A big factor will be the bombers are top 3 in avg and net avg punting where the cats are 7th and 5th respectively. hamilton have given up the 2nd fewest sacks and we have the 3rd fewest. The keys for us will be pounding the ball, limiting the pressure the cats get on nichols, and protecting the ball. Our special teams and run game look poised to win the field position battles. This one should come down to pressure and turn overs.

Hey thanks a bunch. Had some health issues, but things seem to be back on track now. Looking forward seeing a grey cup parade here this fall.

Your suggestion is currently under advisement. Thanks, Mr. Jones.

It is pretty funny that this is the first year we went into camp with a receiving corps that looked awesome and now we finally scout some good receivers. Could have definitely used these guys from 2014-18.

Bauming's tweet indicated that Darrell Williams also on the PR seems to have beat him out. For what its worth, it was Williams not McGloster taking first team reps whenever Yoshi sat out in practice.

Lawler and Whitehead seem to be doing just fine to me.

I heard that Jefferson was quite animated in the way he expressed concern to the ref about having the Ottawa player's puke cleaned up off the field. I don't recall hearing any of it during the game but that would probably be funny as hell to hear.

10 years later and a different stadium but my tickets are still near the players families. This memory popped up on Facebook today and gave me a chuckle... "is glad that it's Shabazz's family that sits in front of us not LeFors'. No child should have to listen to people say those things about their father."

I'm going to need your sister's Tinder profile to verify the above!

True. But the defence is the strengthiest.

My take is that he's always fishing for some sort of signature call (i.e. Golden goal, Do you believe in miracles etc.) that he tries to oversell what is happening at the time. I hate it when we will throw a screen pass and that side of the field is out of camera view, Roddy gets all excited (screen pass to Harris - LOOK OUT!) and it gets blown up for a 2 yard gain or something. Stop winding me up for what I think is going to be a big play and it turns out to be a nothingburger. That's why he blows and Cuthbert is the best.

A little un related but I met Marcus Sayles last year at the home opener. My sister met him on tinder and gave her free tickets to the game, so naturally she took her big brother lol it was probably a bit of a surprise to him when he saw her with another guy. He invited us to an after party after the game but we declined! Nice guy.

ST giving O short fields, O being efficient in the red zone, D shutting team down Hoping we stay the course

Advantage Bombers.

Seems like our boys don't like the ALLCAPS much

Walker was pretty good on punts IMO...first CFL game too. Smart and could see potential for explosiveness.

I have literally said "calm down, Tim Tebow" watching the games 😂

What i would give for the cfl to be free of him, pederson and sutter.

Yes, I don't remember it either. I suppose he could use some sort of exoskeleton suit that would give him some ability but that wouldn't protect his body. Bucky should have the shield.

Well he had 2 fluke games..a horrible game..a average at best last game..so prob due for another stinker this weekend so luckily no pointing to sky this weekend lol

If you have the game on your PVR you can hear it fairly well. Watched it a couple times for laughs.

Falling off a curb, ankle. Getting hit by a van and stabbed by the antenna, groinal injury, doctor said it was van aerial disease. A black eye, but I didn’t hit her. And I threw my gut directly into some guys knee, thrice. Don’t know who was worse off.

Control the ball and field position....keep Masoli seated on the bench.

Rod Black is so bad.

Damñnnnnn, Hecht. Also yeah, JRE is good more than it isn't (I don't find his stand up funny but he is really funny just talkjng on JRE). If I had to guess he stays away from the Onnit related stuff because he doesn't want it to sound like an infomercial.

Id rather be tom brady.

2:41 and 3:02 are nothing to sneeze at either

The way id approach a guy like him isnt with raw speed. Plus our imp dbs arent slow guys by any means. Id shift vice coverages around on him. Have his db cover over and then show but drop kyrie or WJ under neath him, Or DB under and hecht over. Id play him physical. Hit him hard on every running play. Put his butt on the turf every play you can. Thats how you slow a guy down. Its better to show blitz and drop guys sending only 3 or 4 at masoli then to try to out blitz them. Ham schemes for banks very well. Dbs gotta fight through blocks and make him pay a price when he tries to go over the middle.

If you get low quality supplements, even some mid tier stuff you can find contamination for a crazy range of illegal drugs. Supplements are a scary world.

This seems the most likely reason to me for both biggie and mathews missing. Did mathews come back to the cfl to sit as a healthy scratch? I dont think so.

from the article: I've been away from Canada for a few years ... what kind of over-the-counter stuff contains meth? maybe the test detected some pseudoephedrine?

He sucks anyway so put him in please

I'm going to be enjoying this game in club section 10. It's been awhile since I've been to a game, can anyone advise me if there might be some kind of popular chant that combines both telling people what you would prefer to be and cursing?

I just don't quite understand who'd we'd be making room for by cutting Matthews... Plug him in for Walker at the very least then rotate him with Adams and Lawler Or get him in the lineup in place of Warren - Miles has already proven to be more than a serviceable backup BUT it is nice to be talking about how to fit all of our receiver depth onto the roster - don't think I can remember anything like this in the past decade plus

I don't know about "no reason", having less depth will greatly improve parity in the CFL by making us worse...

The defense is really good.. You can't really argue that especially since Big hill is out and even with Fenner we are shutting teams down. Special teams is providing exceptional kick coverage while also opening large lanes for our returners and they are racking up yards putting starting us out at midfield. The offence isn't getting the yards that the 300 club pines for. Perhaps this is more because we are starting off from mid-field or in their end on kick offs and punts. Maybes it becuase we score early on single large plays and then run the ball? Regardless of where you view the strength / weakness of the team, i think you have to say that all three facets of the team and strong and working hard and contributing to the wins. I'm sure we will loose a game soon, but i its nice having breathing room early in the season vs trying to catchup.

Cut around 2am Sunday, released probably around 3am..................

I might argue that the special teams are just as key... but that is what sets Winnipeg apart from everyone else so far this year.... all facets are doing their jobs. Special teams are winning the field position battle, d isn't giving up many majors and the offense is putting the ball in the endzone. Sounds like a winning formula to me.
