Rumour has it Jennings plans to open a bakery in the off-season. Seriously, I think the Lions are overrated.
-
Pretty damn talented... Effective in the right system with solid personnel around him... Just not quite at the "elite" level just yet, even though his ceiling could very well be at that level. Dare I say he's the Alex Smith of the CFL...? Is that a reasonable parallel?
-
And a dangerous drinking game: Rod Blackout.

Eh... A pretty lousy roster is right there at the top of the shitpile, too.
-
You're right. When it was crunch time, he was not good. Harris obviously lacks the veteran savvy Burris had but the talent, which is well above average, is there. Then again, the team as a whole hasn't been good this season when it mattered most, hence the lousy record.

Testing Our Mettle: Eskies Coming Here
blue_gold_84 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
This is a game they need to win in order to demonstrate they have turned a corner, IMO. Tomorrow's game is as much a statement game as next week's will be. -
Which is why I said "little to nothing." No doubt when the game is on the line, he's struggled. I do think he does enough to put his team into a position to win more often than not, though. Poor starts/finishes and an inability to defend a lead are far more prevalent issues for the RedBlacks than who's chucking the ball, IMO.

He leads the league in passing yards and passing TDs, has a 4:1 TD/INT ratio, and is on pace for a career season. How is that average? What ails the RedBlacks has little to nothing to do with the QB.

As long as your router is within range, a Smart TV should run Netflix quickly and smoothly (from what I understand, anyway). MTS TV Netflix, OTOH... Absolutely brutal.

Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
blue_gold_84 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Delusion bordering on insanity will do that. -
Pretty surprised by this move but I'm guessing SMS had something to do with it.

Took me over a week to realize I forgot another great pizza place: Jeffrey's. Damn good pizza (and wings). The Donnie Mack is my personal fave from there. The El Diablo is... something else.

Is it known which Western team tried to grab Spooner off PR??
blue_gold_84 replied to Booch's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I think the only way that happens is if PR players were compensated better than the equivalent of $18.75 an hour. That's a laughable wage for someone who's considered a professional athlete. Loyalty comes second to increased remuneration in most professions, anyway... If not any profession. If employer B is willing to offer me more money than employer A, loyalty be damned. -
Boy, if this isn't a wounded team ripe for the picking, I don't know what it is. The Bombers could really benefit by putting this hapless team through the ringer this weekend. OTOH, it's got trap game written all over it.

It's a relative statement based on his own experience, so I don't see how that's funny.

That moment when you should probably just log off forever but instead continue to broadcast your ignorance...

I don't understand how wearing shorts during the summer means he's not holding himself a higher standard. It's not like they're dirty, frayed, cut-off jean shorts.
-
Of course not. Some "fans" would rather make up stories in a weak attempt to further the bullshit narrative O'Shea is hated, which clearly explains the support for Plug Wiecek... Er, I mean Paul Wiecek.

Dresslers sits this week and was apparently placed on the 6-game... Flanders is in, so that's good.
