First game in an abreviated training camp & pre season where hitting was rare. Give the guys a chance to find their football legs,

It's not a graveyard anymore. Until last year we were undefeated at McMahon Stadium for 5 seasons. Yeah, the Stamps won every game played there last year but who cares? We've already got s win in Calgary this season. With Noeller it's either total happiness because the birds are singing & the butterflies are free. Or absolute terror because the damned sky is falling in.

Twenty years ago the Stamps were aaveraging 31000 fans a game. Even 10 years ago they were averaging 24-26000 a game. Then Covid came. Local media got ripped apart with budget cuts. And ownership stopped caring.

Those Stamps uniforms look like pyjamas out of the kiddies section of the Eaton's catalogue from 1972. Stamps ownership stopped carrying about the team when Murray Edwards took over. I think it's asking a lot for the fans to care about the team when the owner doesn't. Media coverage in town here is absolutely zero. No more local sports on tv. The two newspapers are toilet rolls.

Of course, I pick Stevens of the Riders & they have a bye week. Can I get a mulligan?? ;)

When you say Jake my symptoms of PTSD return because I still think you refer to the other Jake.

As long as they start the season just a few weeks after thje snow goes away this is going to happen. Only the die hards care about the CFL in early June. The season starts too early. Next year even earlier. It should start with a bang on the Canada Day weekend. Not with a whimper on some random early June Thursday. The season opening weekend should be an event. The CFL has decided that it should compete with the SC playoffs & the NHL Draft in the spring & the MLB playoffs & World Series in October & early November. How stupid is that?

There's always questions before the very first season game. We'll find out what kind of team the Bombers have in the next 3-4 games. As former Blue Bomber Head Coach Joe Zaleski always used to say to the local media when asked about his team's chances, "I'm optimistic!!"

Half full?? That's very optimistic. I was on social media. I guess Regina isn;t the only CFL city who hates Thursday night games. I think TNF is a failure. Get rid of it. Play two games Friday night. Them two games on Saturday.

Season KICKOFF!!!!! three games. big whoop.

So, is the Shane Doan possible hire gaining traction or was it just someone's wild imagination on social media? I wish Chevy would retire cuz he'll never be fired. #jobforlife.

What about Paul Maurice?

When the Jets were in the Wha, I always wished they would have signed him to play.

Or signed another proven Canadian free agent receiver with experience.

But Cobb with 6 catches & an 8.5 yards avg per catch in 2025 is solid. Have faith.🙄

That's quite the imagination. Of course, it could never, ever happen.

Same again last night. I couldn't get on here around midnight or 1 am.

I was 40 in the 90's. No teen memories for me...

Why do you think myself & more than a few others here wanted a complete change of management & coaching after 13 seasons of the same? We knew if Walters & Osh stayed that there'd be little change. especially with Osh. What did Miller do? Give them both 3 year contracts. My question is, why do posters think anything will be different with the same people in charge? Most of you got what you wanted.

Last night I couldn't log on here but okay now.

To say that Cobb with 6 catches averaging 8.5 yards a catch on his Bomber resume is either solid or versatile is wrong. We have no idea if the guy can actually consistently play at the CFL level. We've had receivers with better numbers than that cut in the past. If we have to start him then we did little to improve our receiving corps from last year.

Spending money on a lawn sign would be an improvement for the Stamps. What's the season ticket count now?

You'd think... unless our defense takes a step or two back this season. That's the thing with personnel changes every year, players coming & going, retirements along with free agency you just don't know which units will play well.

How can you call Gavin Cobb serviceable? He only suited up for 4 games last season while just starting 2 & catching just 6 passes for 51 yards.
