  1. I’m so darn impressed with that defence tonight. My god. If this is what they have been saving up to do, we could win the rest of our games from the D alone. Two years ago the blue d was a turnover machine. Tonight’s blitz machine stymied the schmoes to 3 points. That’s eye opening. Blitzes, turnovers, incredibly hard hits, that’s football that’s fun to watch.
  2. I like 1st star: Kevin Fogg 2nd star: Soupy Sayles 3rd star: Adam Bighill Happy Honker: Drake Nevis
  3. Szcrotum71, 17to85 is correct in his interpretation of the rule as constructed. It makes the most sense. His comment includes the qualifier for an occasion when 44 players are on a roster.
  4. Really? They’ve done that?
  5. I was referring to a someday occurrence of the synchronized signal at a field goal. In this example, above, how in the heck did they screw that call up? Lol
  6. Without looking up his name or spelling, I’ll say “Ed Hoculy” is an NFL ref. CFL refs seem to want to be part of the show throwing undue number flags, then consulting further delaying the game. The other thing they seem to do by design is when a convert or field goal is good, they look at each other and both of them under the goal posts raise their arms in a synchronized fashion. Synchronized reffing isn’t necessary. I’d like to see one signal in and the other say out, someday. I don’t watch games to see refs flaunting their colourful scarf dance or synchronous signalling.
  7. The CFL refs call more penalties in a game than NFL officials, by about 7 or 8 per game. Theory might support more officials = more penalties but NFL uses 7 officials, CFL 6 and obviously on a larger field. So less skill by CFL players or are CFL officials all hopped up on Mountain Dew?
  8. Ex National players, Miller, Walters, and O’Shea, may not have the contacts due to lack of exposure down south. But McManus should have some friends in the states. Ha! You must have convinced me so much, I thought the observation was my idea.
  9. You missed Goalies comment. The topic is 3 bomber stars and cactus jacks happy honker. You disrespected that. You aren’t being open to bomber fans following their tradition. You are trying to change our tradition. Are you dense? Speaking of essence, that follows rider fans everywhere and is offensive.
  10. Intriguing question. It could be a perception that there are fewer td’s On kick returns. However, I’d guess it’s the number of penalties that are called. Of the 135-160 plays average in a cfl game average 20 penalties are assessed. Last years second kick return in a single game, might have been hammy at Winnipeg, was called back. Some Safeway winner was denied a million bucks because of the penalty. I gots no specific facts for the questions, just anecdotes to ***** about the refs.
  11. Two games ago the Special teams were introduced. We commented but other fans nearby said they had seen that before, a long time ago.
  12. I didnt see him chewing anyone out on Saturday. I believe you when you say you did. Over the past couple of training camps, I have seen MOS be spirited in his direction to a player. In fact, there was a recruit at camp on the sidelines not participating due to injury texting on a cell phone. MOS took the phone, threw it maybe 40 yards and again in a spirited fashion instructed that he was to be involved even if on the sidelines. He has also blasted staff for letting fans in early for practice. He might not be a hothead, but is certainly capable of giving someone a blast. Maybe on Saturday some players needed a blast.
  13. You wasted a whole bunch of time composing, writing, and reviewing this post.
  14. Turning point of the game. Thompkins drops a pass from Bernie at midfield. I slouched and said, “ the receivers don’t understand they need to catch passes.” Like I know nothing but our champs need to learn to grab the ball and hang n. Wolitarsky slips and misses an easy pass. Demski dropped one and another guy, Miller, failed to catch a very catchable ball. any one of those passes been completed and the bombers would have cmtimued to move the ball well. Ambulance leaves after a 25 minute delay. Any air the blue had was released with this bit of adversity.
  15. 3 and 1. And you wonder why this board doesn’t respect you?
  16. A comment on character from an advocate for cheating. When you change your avi and your name, feel free to use “Foghorn”.
  17. Try that on your tax return. Try it crossing the border at U.S. Customs. Cheating at football, is that what the kids need to learn?
  18. No
  19. Memorable comments but can’t quote exactly...... Well now I’m convinced!
  20. Are you his PR guy?
  21. Wolitarsky suggested Streveler come to town because they were tent mates in Scouts or something like that. Well, that’s how I remember it.
  22. May not have to be “equally” to qualify as a sucka fu chickenhead.
  23. The correlation is, undeniable. From this point on, the example of what a duck wad did to a team.
  24. We just may have the North East portion connected at a minimum unless someone else chimes in with their needs. WE CAN BUILD THIS THING, Ill volunteer to map it out and update the information as it rolls in. Should this be the topic of a new thread?
  25. THATS the spirit! I need them to at least have the parade snake along Regent avenue from Bond to Lagimodiere and Waverley from Academy to Taylor. What portion of the route can you add that is a necessity for your needs? Oh, and Moray, Grant to Ness.
