I think their internal office is crumbling more than they let on.
-
Love games where a rouge matters.
-
I can't remember recently seeing Mike Riley play this impatiently. He forces deep throws at the best of times, but some of these are ridiculous.
-
Looks like its just you and me bud, been a good back and forth affair though. Like arguing with my wife.
-
Man, that ends up being a huge holding call.
-
Is it okay to be a BC Lions fan tonight?
Eternal optimist replied to DougR's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Meh - I've always been okay with rooting for teams provided it helps the Bombers in the standings - as long as it isn't the 'Riders. In case you haven't caught on yet, they think they're the greatest thing ever and consider themselves "Canada's Team" - they are the CFL equivalent of the insufferable Cowboys fans in the NFL. If you want a primer on their best play ever in a Grey Cup (our SuperBowl) I've linked it below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77L3gNDCUnw Cheers and welcome to the CFL. -
Next Game vs Hamilton - Revenge Is In Order
Eternal optimist replied to USABomberfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Technically true - but they also surrendered exactly 20 points in two games... so that stat is a little misleading. Also, they managed to lose one of those two games. -
Lol Calgary losing the time of possession battle at the half by scoring too quickly.
-
Their +/- turnover ratio is also +14.
-
They're both good - but Reilly plays a riskier game, which has cost them before. Mitchell has a slightly better QB efficiency as it stands right now... but the best part? Manziel's efficiency rating is the worst in the league right now (-13.8).
-
Man, it looks like it will never happen right now.... but I can't wait for Calgary to fall from grace.
-
Stuff like this needs to be penalized... it wasn't on the field, that could easily warrant objectionable conduct. No different than flipping off an official etc. it is disrespectful to not only the game, but Gatorade and water coolers everywhere.
-
Time to kneel out the half down 30 points.
-
I gotta say... the current 47-11 score kind of flatters Montreal here.
-
Not even steroids can help Montreal now, but yes I agree. I wasn't saying we trade him, just observing that we could've gotten a lot for him based on the trade by Montreal. As it stands right now though, this is Herschel Walker-esque trade results.
-
To think we could've traded him to the Al's for a king's ransom.
-
Lol Hamilton announcers pointing out Manziel is now tied for 4th in interceptions in the league with about 2 minutes playing time.
-
Fun fact: Most points scored, single game: Montreal (82) - Hamilton (14) back on October 20, 1956.
-
At least they're sinking consistently?
-
Is it possible a 1-5 team underestimated their opponent? Or does Mike Sherman just not know it's only 3 downs up here?
-
They have Manziel and they won the coin toss - 2018 GC champs!
-
Just wanted to chime in - I think the fact that that the Pembina Highway bike trail routinely goes up, onto the sidewalk is the stupidest thing on the planet. They routinely tell cyclists its against the law to ride on the sidewalk, then build a bike lane that literally goes up onto the sidewalk. I think they do this out of necessity - they don't run games Sunday for fear of losing out to the NFL, you've got 4 games a week - something has to give. Not with that attitude it isn't!
-
It's too bad they can't both lose.
-
If you can't get one yard in this league, you don't deserve to win.
-
Is Riley ever going to play behind a decent O-line?
