  1. Working holiday Monday but CFL football makes it 1000% more tolerable
  2. Lmfao Riders picking up where they left off
  3. I know the snow is gone but i always consider the start of summer to coincide with the Bombers season. Can't wait
  4. Just wanted to chime in RE: Brady O, dude wants to get paid. Hope he sticks with us but especially as a RB and being the CFL... you only get so many years. It sucks, but I understand it.
  5. Honestly i dont think it is fair to put Calvillo on the same level as Collaros. As in... AC was a way better pocket passer.
  6. Are we so spoiled as to be dissappointed with consistently being in the GC? I know we obviously want to win, but you can honestly say this year wasnt fun
  7. Personally, i thought one big gaffe that has largely gone unnoticed was O Shea not challenging that 'incomplete pass' Sure, Als were in 3rd down thereafter but that allowed them to punt instead of us getting the ball closer to midfield. Thoughts? Anyone else felt that was a fumble?
  8. Those comments cause not only short term pain (the loss last night) but longer term issues. What message does that send to players that were told to sit when healthy (Rose, O'Leary-Orange)
  9. Just here to say the sun will rise today, boys. Don't dwell on it too much, there are more important things in life than football.
  10. Bright side of things: 1. MTL winning means SSK now has the 3rd longest drought, behind BC (2011) and HAM (1999) 2. Honestly, sucks they lost but that is why you play the game. 3. We didn't lose on a too many men penalty lmfao
  11. Oh god 2019 replay with Keith Urban commentary is still cringey af
  12. This game just makes me miss prime Darvin Adams. I know he's too old now and Bailey has largely taken his blocking role, but dude was just nasty for other teams to deal with.
  13. The correct situation there is to obviously prevent the score. In fact Collaros was put in the situation - in a more meaningful game scenario, he stopped a fumble return in the 2021 Western Final against SSK from being a scoop and score. SSK did eventually punch it in, but the fact you at least give the D a chance to make the stand is much better. Also, just from a morale standpoint, nothing is more demoralizing to an offense than a defensive touchdown.
  14. For those wondering, 9 team sacks ties a CFL playoff record, the record overall (including regular season games) is 13. Though team sacks as a statistic have only been tracked by the CFL since 1978.
  15. Kudos to the Bomber marketing team having a sign on the jumbotron: "The BC lions have requested silence while on offense, please respond accordingly" or something to that effect
  16. HH to the little 10-year old that was cheering so hard he broke the plastic clapper thingy he had and then started hitting the remnants on the back of the seat to continue making noise.
  17. MTL with the start they absolutely needed. Lots of game to play still
  18. Uh... just to clarify - kickoff is today (Nov-11-2023) at 5:30PM, correct?
  19. My rule for all bomber games is drinks for the missus are free. When in doubt liquor up lol
  20. Hahha no. I set behind the away team bench. I always tell the opposing team to at least buy the space heater dinner first
  21. I hope its -25C and the leos huddle around that stupid space heater while our boys are out there in sleeves.
  22. Bailey is a monster WR and always shows up in cold weather games.
  23. I think my fav part of attending home games is 100% certainty i dont get to hear Suitor lol
