Rekjavik? That is one place I wanted to go.

In 60 years of watching Bomber football, I have never seen anything like that gust of wind allowing us to win that game. That was incredible. I thought maybe God is a Bomber fan until he wasn't after Zach sliced his finger open on his throwing hand.

Delete comment. Wrong thread.

You make it sound like Adams "going down hill" for him was his fault. It was the owner, GM & HC who didn't have the faith in him all because they thought that Nathan Rourke would win them a Grey Cup based on his 9 game performance in 2023. It was their stupidity who derailed the Lions season. Nothing Adams did hurt the team as the guy was all in. At the time he was injured, Adams did everything that was asked of him & more. I think Rourke is a flash in the pan. He got on a hot streak in 2023. I think if anyone is an average qb, it's Rourke.

I'm old enough to remember Dr. Kildare back in the early 60's. Chamberlain had a hit tv show but from what I remember he never enjoyed playing the Kildare character saying it was boring. Interestingly, Dr Leonard Gillespie was played by long term & renowned Canadian Hollywood actor Raymond Massey, the younger brother of former Governor General Vincent Massey.

Adams was supposed to be their insurance if Rourke struggled or got hurt. Except they never used him like that. They were afraid if they traded Adams he'd come back to beat them. So yeah, keeping or trading him was the Lions own Kobayashi Maru nightmare scenario for the Lions. But I have no sympathy for them. They laid in their own ****.

I loved it & then we just intimidated everyone. Then we just stopped doing it. Instead of Stevie Richardson we have jake Thomas. It's crazy.

I think most of us were looking at us retaining Liam Dobson as well as impact signing on both the OL & DL & that was it. We didn't expect the team to spend like crazy but to address the needs in our weakest areas. That was my expectations.

It was but their passing offense was humming. Could they have maintained that level all season? That was a talented receiving corps. Probably not but who knows if Adams could have reached 6,000 yards passing. Campbell in one decision just took it all away. Whoever made that decision, it was the wrong one. And publicly, the HC will always wear it for all to see.

I'd be very unhappy if I was a BC Lions fan. The money spent might have worked if Rick Campbell hadn't effed it up by benching Vernon Adams who was having a MOP season until he got hurt. Taking the reigns away from Adams & giving it to Rourke killed their season .

Johnnzo, I dunno, man. You're a strange animal.

Things in Montreal just drag out for decades while things never change They were talking about a new downtown 30,000 seat baseball stadium 3 decades ago. Yet, here we are in 2025 & it's nowhere near being built as it was in 1998. Nowhere close to getting an expansion franchise either.

We were all excited about Tui Eli as a Center than Osh went poof!!

I understand Mark Weightman is extremely well connected in the Montreal business community. Was he forced out as this move makes no sense? Why would Weightman leave as they aren't anywhere near where they need to be in order to be a stable pro sports organization yet. One bad season & they're back to square one. You'd think he'd be moving mountains in the business community to get a new stadium built as well as a team in QC.

No, my clock is fine.

I enjoyed Rogue One. The special effects were incredible. But the allure of the Star War films is over.

My take is that every pro league has their stars or "superstars". The CFL s no different. You mentioned BO & Rourke & I agree. There are players who excel in the CFL. Fans knows who the great players are just like they know who aren't. Fans, especially ones that lean towards liking the NFL keep saying no one in the CFL can play in the NFL. Meaning we have no stars to sell the game which is totally ridiculous. The CFL have players I want to watch that play for the Bombers or with other teams. The league doesn't do any marketing of its players. They don't get the exposure they deserve in the media. It doesn't mean we don't have superstars.

The Super Dogs were great. That was one halftime show I dearly missed when I moved to Calgary. They do have dogs out here & they're really good as well. However, the Stamps barely booked them. I just preferred the Super Dogs, I love dogs... Humans don't deserve them.

What's it mean, though? Rich?

Do you agree with Ed Hervey that the CFL has no supertars?

No jumping snowmobiles, please!!!!

Not sure if anyone else has seen this warning but randomly when I come here to MBB, I see this message saying, "This site does not provide a secure connection." What does it mean? Am I taking a risk coming here when I see this message?

Yeah, could happen as some guys do pan out later in their careers. I'm not counting on it. WTH, JC Abbott?? A little early for the Bombers to open negotiations. At his age (35 going on 36), I think the Bombers are waiting to see what kind of season he puts together first. I just hope Plan B is ready if Zach gets hurt.

Overall, a pretty disappointing off season... I don't feel that Walters & Osh had a shared focus on what they wanted to do when free agency started

He got legs. He knows how to use them.
