When was he on the top? -

He wasn't ready to be a starter at that time. He should have stayed in sask longer. His career is over. -

Nope. Jones tried that and he still couldn't survive camp -

We have that already with Glenn -
Flanders looked good. Langford drops the ball right in his hands. I don't know about that guy, he makes plays and then just shuts his brain off at times too. On another rider punt he took it to the house, it was called back on a offside against the bombers.
-
Nichols looked pretty blah for the most part. Davis wanted to run around more than pass by looks of it, he was basically just holding onto the ball too long. Rookie confidence thing I figure. Davis is athletic and didn't look too bad, didn't do a lot but never hurt you. Lefevour by far looked the best of the Bomber qb's. He was calm and steady. I've bashed Lefevour a lot, but he played pretty good, definitely looked like the solid number 2 qb on your team.

Today is a big day for Bridge. I think he better show something or he ends up 3rd or gone

I have read that and agree. I was speaking to fan bases in general. Durant as a example. I am on board with moving on from him, however would have kept him maybe one more year. Would it break my heart to see him struggle this year? nope. Don't wish him any ill will but not cheering for him. If we string a so so season together and are in the hunt to crossover, they are a team we will be fighting with. Hope we knock him out of game in week one on route to a road victory -
Bridge is starting for us with the ones. Bennett will be in later on.

There is no getting out. We have a cooler in vehicle with us. Usually some post game tailgating occurs. I'd still rather be close

Couple things. I don't think anyone has said DD has a noodle arm, Bennett just has a better one( more powerful). Secondly, I am not holding my breath in regards to Bennett. He may or may not turn out to be anything, he has been a good prospect so far. Subconsciously I would think Bomber fans in general would like to believe that this kid has no future, makes letting him go easier to swallow. Jennings came through the Riders and didn't even get invited to training camp, guess we missed the boat on him. It does happen. -

Fans commenting on how well he throws the ball to the wide side of the field, and making some throws in practice that Durant wasn't known to be good at= fans thinking Bennett is better than Durant. Your crap gets old some times. I hope no one here actually believes anything you say -
I have parking pass so doesn't matter to me. But its crappy for a lot of people that come to Regina from out of town for the games
-
Curious to see Langford also. He showed well at times here. I started calling him Clang ford when the ball bounced off him a few times. He may have developed into something good if he had stayed and got more reps. We were so bad at the time and were rotating receivers in and out, it was hard to tell who was good and who wasn't
-
Lefevour's experience gives him the edge for sure. Jokes aside, he does ok when he doesn't try to do too much. When he thinks he is a pocket passer he fails miserably. When he is a change of pace, making plays with his legs, taking the short passes, he is effective.

Young gets cut I think. Glenn, Bennett, Bridge( wish we had someone better but I guess we will see)
-
Looks like 33k will be there. I imagine the crowd won't be that loud as everyone will be just checking things out. Busing in and out of stadium will be a gong show, parking is issue right now at stadium. Likely will be all year till old stadium is tore down
-
Bridge is in a battle to make the team. I am in the waiting to be impressed category on him. Bridge just hasn't done anything that stands out. I'd like to see us go with Glenn and Bennett, which we likely will.
-
Glenn isn't playing. I'm glad to get some football back. Excited to see the stadium. Haven't sat in our new seats yet. Looking forward to watching Spooner and Couture on Oline. Davis at qb. For us, Bennett and Fulwood. Tull on Dline. Hope neither team has any serious injuries, and hope any fans making the trip to Regina have a safe trip.

So how many INT's does the Fever dish up?

This guy looks like a excellent prospect. Big and Strong, just what every team needs. someone mentioned the Raiders, might be confusion there Oakland had a DT by same name who was cut as a cap move. I stand corrected... http://oak.247sports.com/Bolt/Raiders-sign-Dan-Williams-No-not-that-Dan-Williams-52576505 -

Pretty mixed reviews on Young. I was against bringing him in from day 1, brutal move by Jones, brutal. Makes us look like a joke when a team makes moves like this. I hope this ends the Young thing for good. As far as Bennett goes, the kid can throw the ball, I'm excited about that. Doesn't mean much at this point but its a good sign moving forward. -

There really aren't many fans other than the Bombers and the Riders, LOL. Look at our site, 99% of the fans are either Rider fans or Bomber fans -

Actually as good as anyone doesn't mean the best, there is a difference. If someone says they are the best then that means they are the front runner and the group to measure others against. I like BC's receivers but feel we are right there with them, not sure about better though. Chris Best retired. Dykowski may or may or start, it will be between him and St John. Dykowksi likely is the starter in game 1 but not necessarily all year
