  1. Hand out some public drunkenness tickets. It is a event that is open to families. There is absolutely no reason why kids should have to be around drunks swearing and fighting. Its complete BS that a very small group gets to wreck it for so many others. We have all been to plenty of games and some people can clearly be seen to be impaired and should be kicked out. The stadiums are to blame to a certain extent for allowing it to happen right under their noses.
  2. He played receiver, wide out in college and then moved to db. Wasn't drafted and has spent time on both offense and defence. His most recent stint in nfl was at wide out. Bottom line is he isn't a starter at either, he is just a returner.
  3. Quit changing the subject. You referred to receivers. Which one of our receivers sits for Troy? Holley, Collins, Roosevelt. None of them and you know it or you know nothing about football. Stoudemire was a failed receiver experiment with the Riders and Bombers before, simply because he can't catch, and is not a elite return guy IMHO. Would you sit Fogg on returns so he could play?
  4. Receiver is not a issue on our roster. We desperately need a DT and a RB, can he play either of those?
  5. Best way to not have opposing fans in your stadium is to sell it out with your own. In lieu of that they provide much needed revenue to the team by buying the available tickets.
  6. Mature response. Luckily you don't speak for all Bomber fans.
  7. You don't mean the Ryan Smith you guys totally fleeced us on by signing him? We were stupid to let him go and all that. I'm as guilty as anyone for sometimes disregarding comments made by other teams fans about player x when we sign him. I guess as fans we all want to support our team and believe they are making good moves.. Smith was a mistake, he can't stay on the field. Too bad because he is a good player.
  8. Does this crap happen in every stadium, yes it does. Is that a excuse for it happening in yours, no it isn't. Shame on any of you trying to justify or make excuses for this behavior. Completely unacceptable, lifetime ban from the stadium to anyone involved.
  9. https://twitter.com/EdmontonEsks?ref_src=twsrc^tfw Stoudemire signs with Esks.
  10. Every game is huge now after labor day. Its playoff time for you guys. Esk's aren't going to go away, neither are the Argo's. Your in a good spot but have to hammer down and keep this thing going.
  11. Riders started 8-1 the year Durant go hurt in Banjo bowl, 2014. Our offense was horrible but the defense was lights out. Many here refused to look at how conservative our play calling was and lack luster DD's play was over that stretch. Winning cures all. Once DD went down all our chickens came home to roost.
  12. Not true. Played the Esks tight twice and the Stamps both times. Only the Cats and Larks blew us out.
  13. It was pointed out to me a while ago that Gainer isn't real but a man dressed up in a costume. This may be the case with Boomer. Just sayin'
  14. I meant better off with Willy here as a backup. Obviously any coach would continue to roll with Nichols as long as he is winning. I don't believe in tinkering with a roster when they are winning. A portion of the guys in that room were friends with Drew and probably didn't want to see him go. That is tinkering.. Guess we'll see if it mattered the next time you guys play. Glenn won't have the whole playbook figured out by next week and god help you if Glenn needs to play this year. I have no dog in this fight. I'm happy to see Willy get another chance and clearly see he was making too much money. I would have IMHO, kept Drew the rest of the year and looked at things in the off season if I thought I had a team to make a run in the playoffs. If management doesn't see you as a contender then the trade makes perfect sense.
  15. You don't see a few differences in how Mitchell plays and how Nichols plays? You guys have had repeated trips to the red zone that have resulted in field goals over the 6 games Nichols has played, Mitchell and the Calgary offense, not so much. I'll just leave it at that
  16. I agree. Nichols didn't do much scoring against the worst team in the league 2 weeks in a row, or the prior weeks leading up to it. I'm very leery about Bombers going with Glenn as a backup also. Still believe you guys were better off with Willy. Hope it works out.
  17. Willy's game is likely the most like Ray's than anyone else. Argo's maybe thinking a situation of Drew mentoring under Ray with Willy eventually taking over. No doubt his contract will be renegotiated as well.
  18. Not going to lie. I'm very surprised Toronto would pay that much for Willy. Good for the Bombers that they got the return they did for him.
  19. Well guys, You won. Congrats. Now that our season is over I'm hoping you guys can make sure the Esks miss the playoffs. Hoping we can help out this week with a win..
  20. LOL, Ok. Thought maybe some of guys have called shotgun already and are tailgating for Saturdays game.
  21. Do it Kyle??? Why don't we throw in Best and Labatte to make it more fair..
