Jones will definitely be back and has more than enough support here. Its Durant's team and he will start. Biggest lesson in the Calgary loss is you can't start slow against good teams like that. They are too good. Against a team like that you have to come out and punch them right in the face at the beginning and get things going. Edmonton can score and move the ball quick, definitely need a quicker start or trouble won't be far behind.

In regards to your defense. The level they were playing at with the turnovers was not sustainable. I do believe you guys need to buckle down and just keep doing what you are doing. A loss against Stamps is nothing to panic about. Edmonton does have a good offense however, need to be ready for them. Lots of football left to go yet.

We aren't making the playoffs. We are just trying to get things going in the right direction for next year. Maybe we can win 3 more games IMO if things go our way.

I agree. The markers have it on the sidelines anyway, so if center moves ball 2 inches it changes nothing. The reason I posted the video was more to why the Rider fans were happy it was called, because we have had it called on us before. Bottom line is when the ball is spotted, you can tilt it but can NOT move it forward. That's why it was called

Missing both our starting OG's for the year. Injury excuses for the Cats? Boo hoo. Everybody has injuries.. You have to win with the guys on the field no matter who that is.

3rd and inches and he clearly moved the ball forward???? Penalty every day of the week. BS that has never been called before. It has been called against Riders before last year

In case you missed the game, just wanted to make sure you knew that you lost........

He is bilingual, can't think of any other reason.

Totally agree with that, but I think some aren't sure you guys are for real. That's more what I meant. A win shuts up the people saying you guys are not a cup contender. I have had doubts about how the season would unfold for you guys with Nichols at the helm. Lapo is doing a great job with him and more and more its starting to look like a smooth unit.

This is the biggest game of the year for you guys. Beat the Stamps at home and heads are turning big time. I would love to see a Bomber win this week. You guys will be sitting at the big kids table.

Again, I do not know this but believe the 26k was the amount of having the players here, that's why it was deducted. Definitely a possibility that more fall out is coming from the incident. I hope not, this year has been painful enough. Congrats on the big win this week guys.

That was the 26k they took off our cap for the year that went with the 60k fine. I think that's how it went down

Maas is a big time hot head. Bene's defense is looking horrible. Fans aren't going to like missing the playoffs after winning the cup. Pressure will continue to mount. Doesn't get any easier as they have the Lions next up.

So you got nothing either. Murphy has said many times in interviews that we are in good shape. Is he lying? I don't know, but until I hear otherwise other than fans opinions, I guess I'll believe him.

Eskimo's aren't so good when they aren't getting all the calls. Was nice to finally see Bowman get called for a pick play also, he has been doing it all year. Game didn't mean anything but it sure felt good to win one at home for all the fans standing by the team through a horrible season. Did anyone notice Maas totally chewing the ref out when he lost the challenge? That clown needs to get a penalty called against him.

Can you provide a link to back up that statement? The riders are in good cap shape. Labatte and Best's salary are off books for almost the whole season. Go ahead and bash the riders all you want but try to be accurate.

What's it going to take to get Henoc signed? 200k'ish likely. I hope the Riders look at him but not overspend if we do. No one can deny the guy has talent and is a ratio buster. Thing is, does he have a NFL hangover now that his dreams are gone?

Ray Rice isn't any worse than the rest of them. He just got caught on video tape.

You have to factor in that he never played. I'd say its still up for grabs. Montreal is coming on strong, I think they are going to pull it off.

That took the fun right out of that.. Shitty news.

I'm thinking they are getting close. I'm pretty happy about it too. You tell em' Rakeem. Those *******..

Turning 34 in October. I'd like to steer clear, he isn't going to help us.

Good point I guess. I was just thinking it would be nice to have a beer at the game, but yet not have to put up with people that are hammered.
