Not many high lights, a lot of low lights, one brown light. It wasnt just bellator weirdness though, any time BJ penn fights that qualifies too. fatty hendricks missing weight by like 3.5 pounds and still getting ktfo. Over all it was a weekend with a lot of fights and a lot of fighters id rather never see fight again. It seems like once a year at some level or another an mma fighter poops the mat. literally.

If neufeld is that heady with the OL, hes well worth having around just to mentor the young guys we are grooming. So long as he doesnt see action... Maybe he has a future after playing of being an OL coach. Not only did nye rank us with out us having played this year, he dropped us like a rock with out us having played. 1 game, the first game of the season no less doesnt change things too dramatically for me. Cal is still the power house of the league until proven other wise. Ott looks strong, with healthy harris at qb. Dont think he has the bounce back ability from getting banged up and rocked. Similar with ricky ray and TO. With out ray they are probably the bottom of the league again, and thats a matter of time. (isnt it?) Improving teams tend to lose close games. But the riders under jones have perpetually been that team. If i was a tabby fan, id be worried. Another season with a heavy dose of masoli would be awful. Id slot us in under edm, and probably under ott for now if i had to rank us before we play. Over all the league looks really tough top to bottom. The riders may win few games but id expect them to be losing close games again. No roll over free spot on the bingo card win by 30 team. Should be a great season for football! cal bc edm ott to mtl ham ssk

They are trying they had fedor didnt they? Crocop looks 15 years younger i may need to try what ever the hell he is on. hahaha maybe the best moment from this weekend of MMA action.

last emperor really really needs to hang em up. Yeah, some people hyped this as the best mma card of the year. My expectations were low and i was still slightly disappointing. Rizin needs to get the old guys who refuse to hang em up, let em juice to their hearts content then fight pride style.

go tigernaughts. Itll be interesting to see how rickety old ray looks to start the year.

wow that return talk about turning nothing into some thing.

Regular Season - Bomber News, Developments & Speculation
wbbfan replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
johny on the spot good stuff. gotta love wylie Its amazing to listen to him in retrospect talking about how the 5 starters are NOT set, and how good the new guys brought in were. With both bond and hardick coming over that off season. http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2017/06/browns_offensive_line_coach_bo.html another great one from bob. Such an interesting test for players! -
Regular Season - Bomber News, Developments & Speculation
wbbfan replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I didnt know he had a site interesting. I remember a few threads on bob wiley and a surly interview around camp last year. Wasnt it both bond and hardrick drawing in after a few weeks last year? Or was some one playing out of position? Either way the shift was gigantic. -

Regular Season - Bomber News, Developments & Speculation
wbbfan replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
No doubt. Bob wiley to the resuce... and american ol. Games in the CFL are often won by offensive out put. And OL is the first possible point of failure in every single play. Not a spot to be stingy for ratio reasons. Some people talked about NI quality falling off some what in the off season. It maybe that the next gen type athletic big OL from the us have surpassed the old NI ol. Gray is cut of that cloth, but guys like him are few and far between. There is a 350 lbs OL in the ncaa that is also very productive in track and field. And not in weight throwin, relay and sprinting. If you grow up in canada, are big and can move your feet hockey tends to get you. The athletes That used to become NI OL didnt really have much of a hockey chance other then being a tough guy. -

This OL is the best i have seen in blue in gold probably ever. And when you consider the depth we have its just insane what they have managed to do. We could survive (again) with out harris. But itd mean hurl is a lock. It would hurt a lot, but flanders et al could handle the load. Medlock would be some kind of awful. I mean we sent the flyin frenchie back to school. I dont even know what we would do. I shutter to think about it. Hurl, thomas,westerman, loffler, 2 ol, and 1 wr. We would be locked into hurl, and wouldnt get the extra DI. With flanders starting, we could rotate normand in for blocking and imp wr. I dont think any one was theory crafting our line up with hurl starting and the extra DI. If it cost us a back up imp id guess jeffcoat or poop. -
Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
wbbfan replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
The difference between harris to start vs to finish the season is gigantic. Before, i could buy him being the best in the league. over all with the second half, not top 2 or close to it. -
I have and pay for netflix thats all i pay for though.

Ive got a minix player as well as a roku and swear by them. Though i also stream from my pc a lot as well. BCS is fantastic and only gets better. No bad story lines and soo many great supporting characters and roles.
-
Or of our offense could make use of a rotational piece like him. Packages with harris in the slot, and flanders for harris sub packs etc. But we saw last year plop really doesnt do that. With harris, mcduffie etc.

Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)

Odds work on who will get bets not who will win. IE sask is allways inflated because there is no lack of rider fans who think they go 18-0 and win the GC every year. RBs 3rd is a freaking joke in the power rankings. No team is the east is ahead of us, edm, cal, or bc. -
Yeah i watched it too, love that series. Didnt know the actor who plays nacho is canadian, thats cool. Idk how long the series can go on for. Maybe if they run into the saul POV of breaking bad they could extend it. But other wise i see 1 maybe 2 more seasons.

hes still young enough (28) but has seen 47 games. Hes played multiple positions on the line, and most importantly has the right pass port. How many NI ol are available under 30 with close to 50 games? May not have a ton of value, but certainly has some value. Never under estimate what desperate team will give up for a prayer. (willy)

yeah anwar stewart comes to mind. Tom canada rocked 44, wonder if poop could use 22.

lets hope so any way.

3 stars plus HH first preseason game edition
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I think the offense is boring and safe, more then nichols FWIW. Nichols strength isnt the deep ball by any means, but he doesnt often throw the deep ball in a spot that is prone to a pick. -
3 stars plus HH first preseason game edition
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
play off performance is only important if you make the play offs. Its no secret nichols plays his best ball in crunch time. But if we dont make it to crunch time thats the problem. weve also seen guys look really good in pre season and be hot garbage in the regular season. Nichols isnt hot garbage by any means though. -
i wonder how many franchises have less then he had. I know of one for sure.
-
Yeah if there was a time when it existed i wasnt alive. I remember guys in the 90s being poached, even remember dave ritchie poached guys late in the season from rivals we expected to face in the play offs. He did it a couple times. Was some claims it was for play book spying, i remember us doing it to some one, maybe buono and him doing it right back right away. The league is too small to black ball GMs / trading partners.
