I agree so the CFL should make a separate award for that so volunteering can be recognized. Truth is, some players just don't like the spotlight. They may be shy or busy raising a family. Some guys have full time jobs so between football & a home life they just don't have the time to give. So, if they have a great season on the field, it shouldn't mean any lesser than a player who also volunteers. Just my take.

What a story Collaros would have had. Every team has one player that would qualify for that award.

CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread

Suitor does love the CFL as he's been involved as a player & analyst going on 40 years. I've no doubt about that. But the young 20/30 somethings who cover the league use it for career advancement instead of making it a career. -
No one should win CFL Awards because they volunteer. Player awards should just be based on performance & nothing else. The League should have a separate award for player volunteer activities off the field separate from anything they do on the field. The NFL has one called The NFL Man Of The Year. I believe it's called. They also have the Comeback Player Of the Year Award which the CFL does not. I'd like to see two awards like that. They hate us cuz they ain't us.

CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread

Free agents will sign with the Riders if Milanovich is there. But knowing the Riders, they'll cheap out & hire Mark Killam. Assistants usually have an out. -
Yeah, it was Lemon. He wanted to make sure Nichols was out of the game so he pancaked him from behind. You still couldn't compare the level of Bomber OL play in 2016 as the same as 2019 & 2021. The OL has also come on like gangbusters this season as well.

If Milanovich goes to the Riders then yeah, I can see MBT signing there. Why would he want to go to that **** show in Ottawa? -

Not voting for Brady was absurd. He's got some "splaining" to do. That's just sad.

Monson? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!! I hope they hire that stooge. The Stamps may bring in DC who knows how to coach a defense. How do these clown coaches keep getting opportunities?? You'd think they'd go after Mace over Monson. They work for Postmedia & all dream of covering the Jays, Raptors or Leafs. Unlike back years ago, reporters spent their entire career covering the CFL & had no inyerest in doing anything else. Now, it's a temporary gig. Dave Naylor is the last of a dying breed. And knowing Bell Media they'll lay him off eventually. -
Collaros is the last guy I'm worried about. We're in good hands at the qb position. He's not going to put up 350 yards & 3 TD passes every game. I worry about our depleted receiving corps. With Schoen, this would have been a no brainer win over the Als. It may be a lot closer now, They didn't just step in & play at a high level. They had to adjust to the CFL game & level of play. Bond was the guy who brought it together. but once the Canadians started to play well, he was the first to go. Did Chungh take his spot? Also, once Neufeld put all his injury issues behind him the OL really took off.

Reed was outstanding. He played for the Riders which shouldn't be held against him. Was he better than Mike Pringle?? Too bad they never went against one another as that would have been epic.

I hope the Bombers shove it up Davis Sanchez blow hole. if anyone gave us no respect or consideration, it was him.

You'd think in a 9 team league they'd figure this **** out but nope.

With the technology we have now, votes should be allowed to be changed & counted up to the day after the Divisional Finals. Not some archaic system that was in use in 1979 when results were telexed somewhere. Or relied on canada Post to get to where they were supposed to go. And reporters should be free to vote for their own team players they cover all season especially if they truly had outstanding seasons to balance off the douchebags in places like Saskatchewan who would rather die first than vote for a Blue Bomber. Congrats, Ballsy. You just celebrated your own personal Grey Cup voting for Kelly. The CFL is such a bush league sometimes.

Brady will have something to prove.
-
Programs like Blue Bloods, the NCIS Seies, the Chicago series & Law & order will all be back. Popular comedies like Ghosts & Young Sheldon as well. It'll be interesting to see what they do with these series. I'm thjinking we'll see the last season of Star Trek: Discovery sometimes before 2030.

Hopefully, this fires up the Bombers the same way Hamilton disrespected them in 2019.

THAT is a freaking joke. Enjoy your off season, Chad you choke artist. Your teammates still love you.

I wonder if these shows can do as close to a 22 episode season without breaks between January & June? Or if that is even the plan? The TV season now has a fall & winter break to stretch it from September to May anyway. Plus throw in unscheduled two or 3 week breaks dujring the season as well. Usually the longest break is after mid November to Thanksgiving in the US to the first week of January & then another long break in March. Then back at it to finish the season in May with the last 4 or 5 episodes. The actors should be well rested as they've been off since April. Some may even want to get paid.

Did Kelly grab the trophy & run off the stage without an acceptance speech? Glad I necver watched this travesty of an awards show.

Let's be fair here, Nichols didn't have the level of receivers to work with that Zach has now. We kept signing 32 year plus receivers whose better days were behind them. We were starting Daniel Peterman, we had a couple of rickety Rider receivers (Dressler & Smith) who were always hurt. Our OL was just finding itself. Neufeld was always hurt. The young studs on the OL Walters drafted were young & inexperienced. Nichols came in & made us competitive. I'm grateful Chris Jones let him go for a 7th rounder & a bag of footballs. He doesn't get the credit he deserves. That injury he suffered was really unfortunate.

GDT - Western Final - Bombers vs Lions

It looked like he kicked Lawler in the face which should have been a penalty. -
East Final GDT - Argonauts vs Alouettes
SpeedFlex27 replied to MOBomberFan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Wow you've left off a vacumous amount of info here trying to make it close. Als DON'T have an edge in specials. We have better punting & kicking as well as even on returns. Zach vs Fajardo? Really? Our OL is the best in the CFL. Huge edge in the run game. Bombers vs Als receiving: Even. Only because of injuries. DL edge to the Als. Linebacking. Edge to the Als. Secondary. Edge to the Bombers. Coaching. Huge edge to the Bombers. -

The CFL will conveniently let the Argos find a way. We know that.
