Oh my....

Her actual name is Dildo.

Maxime Bernier must be close by.

Methinks I'm done.

Bad knee.

Don;t insult the Hamilton fanbase.

No, I don't agree with that. For CFL standards, we're not a small market. We're considered midsized with a Greater Winnipeg population of 800,000 . Bigger than Regina & Hamilton but smaller than the rest but not by much. We have a more solid fanbase than Calgary or Vancouver, Montreal & Toronto. We have a modern stadium that seats 33,000. We've won 12 Grey Cups which is third behind Toronto (17) & Edmonton (14). People here appreciate the team's legacy & what it means to the City. People don't hate the Bombers outside of Winnipeg like they do the Riders because our fanbase aren't cocky & arrogant jerks. If anything, fans from other teams can't get their heads around the fact we went 29 years without winning a championship. Now we've won 2 in a row & might win 3. And we have 12 GC's to 8 in a place like Calgary who've been dominant for nearly 30 years. How can that be, Stamps fans ask? So, it's not really hate per se. It's just other fanbases being dumbfounded.

Check Wildpath's post above this past Thursday at 9;59 PM. I was answering it.

Knowing Calgary & how much Huff & Dickenson love Mitchell, they'll let Maier walk during free agency. Bo wants to stay with the Stamps now for his entire career.

Well, we had Duane Forde proclaiming that Rourke would win the Most Outstanding Canadian AND Most Outstanding Player at the league's award banquet during Grey Cup week yesterday. His bias against Winnipeg is getting annoying.

That's probably what happened. He looked like he punched the ball rather than a normal leg swing to the target. Happens in golf. If you try to crush the ball from the tee all kinds of bad things can happen. A relaxed swing with good contact on the ball with the club head is better.

Somehow I can't see the any of the provinces onboard with a reduction in fertilizer meaning a reduction in production.

I was angry at the time when Lirim had that bad game as it cost us a win vs the Stamps. We were a horrible team in those days & wins were few & far between. But I never hated the guy. Was I a bit over the top at the time? Sure. But O'Shea cut the guy. I didn't. We all know the HC doesn't read our comments or listen to what we think over here. So, this is just a discussion forum among fans. What we say has zero influence on what happens with the Bombers. And besides if 17to85 is going to hang me over some of the things I said nearly a decade ago then he should be executed as well because we all damn well know all of the dumbass things he's said here the last decade.

I think you misunderstood. I was talking about Liegghio.

You're right. He's not going anywhere. He's doing a very good job as our punter & kickoff specialist as well.

Legs wasn't the only reason we lost but no I don't trust he can do the job. You do & that's fine. I hope you're right & I'm wrong. Right off the bat, Legghio has to somehow learn to be a lot more mentally tougher. Don't let the last miss affect your next kick. Throw the negative thought aside. Just go out there & kick the damned ball through the uprights. I recall half the city wanted Hajrullahu's head after that Calgary game. The Bombers cut him at season end. They brought in other kickers like Castillo & shut Lirim down for the season. He never played here again. Did O'Shea hate the guy too or was it just a business decision that he wasn't good enough at the time?

You absolutely trust that Legghio will make a pressure kick from 37 yards out when the game's on the line to win a playoff or Grey Cup game? How can you have that much trust when he's never shown he can do it? I really want to trust that the guy will do it & I was starting to come around to him this season. Like maybe he's somehow overcome his nervous inconsistency & now is mentally tough like a pro kicker needs to be. And then tonight happened...

Castillo may be 78.3% but most of us would trust that he'd kick a game winning FG in a regular season or Grey Cup game when it was all on the line. We don't have that same trust with Legghio. I think we all knew at some point, he'd cost us a game with his inconsistency. Someone name me the pressure kicks he's made to win games for us when everything is on the line the past 2 seasons. I sure can't because he hasn't.

An NFL kicker who did that would be cut. There'd be no second chances. Seen it a hundred times.

My concern is the playoffs & if we can win with the OL playing at the low level it is now. I understand we're starting 8 Canadians. Perhaps we bring in some American OL who are NFL cuts. Work them out & choose the best taking out one of our Canadian OL (likely Neufeld). Insert an American in his place at guard. To me, it's got to be done. We have to protect Collaros.

Legs can't kick under pressure. He proved it again last night. When he absolutely needed to make that kick to win the game he couldn't do it. He had a chance to redeem himself a minute later & he hit the upright. We all knew bad kicking would cost us a game. It finally did. not good enough. There were other reasons we lost the game. Our OL absolutely stunk the joint out all game. Something needs to be done. We can't just stand pat. The line is beginning to look like it's 2015 with Drew Willy back there which is a scary thought as it's Zach Collaros taking snaps & not Willy. If he goes down the season is over. The D that prides itself on being so stingy as well as in the 4th quarter couldn't stop a journeyman Trevor Harris & the Als offense after the Collaros fumble as they marched downfield. On a couple of plays the secondary looked mesmerized & seemed to just watch the ball being caught by Als receivers. Rutledge lining up offside. The Bomber offense going into a shell trying not to lose the game by running the ball to Oliveira instead of going after the Als jugular. At least throw the ball once. Maybe we'll get a first down & continue to shave time off the clock & we end up scoring another TD. The last series was so LaPo it wasn't funny. So, it wasn't all Legs fault although his mistakes were for all to see. The Bomber D, Buck Pierce, the OL can all take equal credit for the loss last night. I just hope Walters & O'Shea sit down & try to address the problems in the 2 weeks we have off. Thanks ******* God this team has a bye!

Imagine if this had been the Western Final against the Lions??? As the season goes on, the pressure mounts. Liegghio better put on his Big Boy pants, Get out there & do what he gets paid to do.

That's how we beat the Argos in the 1990 Eastern Final. Kicked the ball through the end zone for a single point. So, why wouldn't you want to win that way?

Better, yes. I can accept that. More deserving? Hell, no.
