Eternal optimist

In all seriousness though, how could they get rid of the cannon... that's like, our THING. Many years our offensive production has been so woeful that Bomber touchdowns are worthy of the use of heavy artillery.

I heard it was shot.

Well if it is any consolation, I've noticed a lot of the other CFL teams use kickers we brought up for preseason/tryouts. Ottawa - Brett Maher Toronto - Lirim Hajrullahu Hamilton - Sergio Castillo

Hamilton not going away...

It's a conspiracy!

Well the new Mosaic stadium was nice while it lasted.

The entire East thus far (even though its only week 2) looks terrible again this year. It looks like its going to be another tossup, though I think Ottawa is better than they played today.

Drew Willy 2.0.

Well games like that certainly show there are three types of teams in football: 1. Teams that find a way to win. 2. Teams that find excuses to lose. 3. Those idiots in green and white.

This is ridiculous

An amateur football game has broken out at TD Place.

Only in the CFL hah.

Maybe he was trying out for the Ottawa Fury FC?

WTF was that.

Looks like Harris is learning from Nichols' performance last night.

I hate to wish ill on a player's NFL aspirations but if Quincy McDuffie gets cut by the Cowboys this would be a perfect role for him.

I'm pretty sure O'Shea has a man-crush on JFG.

I wonder if this is possibly a salary cap issue.

I can't recall in recent memory a single defensive back getting lit up as much as Carmichael did over the last two games. I know there's a learning curve in adapting to the CFL game, but I think it says something when two different teams/QBs/offensive schemes find the same weak link night in and night out.

What about that offside penalty Carmichael took? If he had remained disciplined the Blue would've stopped the Stamps on 3rd and 1 and the place would've gone bonkers. Instead they managed to get 6 off the penalty.

If that's the case and he's healthy I'd give him a shot next week. Lankford has looked unimpressive at best.

Well I stand corrected... that gives him even less of an excuse then. Also, pretty sure they released Thorpe: https://www.bluebombers.com/2017/06/21/bombers-add-three-release-two/

Unintentionally convinced the father from the father/son combo that sit next to me to get his son a cowbell at halftime yesterday. Looked like the little guy had a ton of fun yesterday despite the loss which was nice to see. Agreed - My vote is for Fort Garry Brewing Co.

They actually stuffed them five times. Agreed - also I know he's a rookie but he should know better than to carry the ball with his inside hand. Typical young returner that doesn't yet realize that sometimes you just gotta duck and dive for five yards - tries to take it outside too much. On that same return he fumbled I was worried he was going to get tackled inside our own 10.

Agreed, I know last night when Lankford fumbled that return the general atmosphere at IGF was "here we go, again...". The silver lining I guess is that considering we served up 5 turnovers, we managed to hold one of the best offenses in the league to under 30 points. It's too bad the offense couldn't muster up more positive plays.
