So, by your "logic", Toronto is elite. You might want to become a bit more familiar with the concept of the past not being the present. Glad to see that you're not making your trolling quite so blatant as before.
My personal logic tells me not to use the term "elite" at all for any of the cfl teams. I thought the term was used for teams like the New York islanders when they won four straight....,,, or a team like the patriots who have repeated the past by continuing to win championships....... for me just being at the top of the standings does not even necessarily earn the term, which toronto did prove to us last season.
And as for your trolling bash I find that hilarious. somebody has a different opinion ...and then somebody does not like it so they automatically resort to calling others trolls.
And if yer a regular from that other board don't you find it funny that I commented way back ....that I didn't think Matty was very good with the long passes, and that he was not a very good scrambler.....you can actually say these things here without anyone getting agitated.

I think he means riderfans...site of the hypocrates and mis-informed
Bombersforum.com.....the home of easily agitated thin skins whom you must agree with or you can't be a part of it.
This place doesn't seem so thin skinned and I have seen many posts here that would be reported on that forum...... I like this place so far.......less blue kool-aid but still just enough.

saying a team is elite for past cup wins isn't indicative of elite or not...Calgary and Winnipeg have won the most games the last 2 years...neither won a cup...so with that logic neither is elite
Never liked the "elite" title on a team or player as it is baseless if you ask me based on championships..i look at it in the here and now and over a course of a season...so you lose the last game of the year and dont hoist a trophy...it's dissapointing...but to say a 14-4 team..or even a 12-6 team isn't elite is foolish
Okay I can agree with these comments....,,but an elite team in the moment should be able to win a playoff game or two at the end of the season right ?

Bombers are already an elite team troll.
Not until they win a cup.

Not wrong. Matty has to play better or we won't be able to compete with Calgary or Edmonton in the playoffs. But that's not a position we can address. Streveler needs to sit back and learn for a couple years before challenging Matty. He just needs to do whatever he needs to do to get back to where he was at last season.
Are you saying you would give Matt Nichols two years to get on track before even thinking of letting Streveler show what he has got again ?

From my vantage point here Nichols is just looking off tonight. Not seeing open guys in the mid range and out wide and forcing things...should change it up with Strevs
I just got back from being in the bush for four days......Booch, I got tossed from you know where for my Matty opinions...and I come back to read all this stuff, too funny. The CJOB guys were saying much the same stuff during the game, old school camping and listenening to a bomber game is still fun.

So once he is off the stuff will he still be as good a player ?

If you want to increase attendance, eliminate the home games on TSN.
TSN has five channels.....one of them would be covering the game for the rest of Canada.

I didn't know a player could be 6-gamed for suffering from a case of hurt feelings.
Must be kind of the same scenario where a poster gets banned from a fan forum because others get hurt feelings over that posters opinions.

Well thank you, Captain Obvious. Next you'll tell us if the Bombers score more points than the other team survey says... they'll win.
I could post a lot of "captain obvious" situations.......... which makes it kinda funny to me when Bombers fans talk bad about teams that have won since we have.....

We weren't 15-3-1 or 14-4 playing far inferior teams in the GC like Ottawa & Toronto? How can you even make the same kind of comparison to what the Stamps did & have done choking more than winning after having dominant seasons? How many GC's have they blown since 1992??
I'm not comparing any of the years to just Calgary...... just to the fact our last win hasn't been a GC in awhile.

If we ignored them until we kick their asses it would be even funnier... me and my Regina sister in-law are really starting to get into it....but have yet figured out what to bet this year on our series...

Yeh But the way Streveler looked when he played he could start for a few of the other teams right now.

I thought the general consensus after the last game was that Hall called an okay game ?

Except in the very last game they play.
Same thing could be said about the Bombers over the last ........how many years?

Dunnigan is right, Manziel needs to spend at least a year or two standing on the sidelines paying attention and watching intently. Rushing him into action after a week of practice is a lose-lose proposition that will bring consequences for all. I'm appalled people expect any different result.
Yet Streveler just popped up on the scene and did very well. TSN needs better scouts.

The funny thing is IGF is 100x more comfortable to attend events at than MTS Place. The place does not get its credit in the city.
If IGF had a hotel attached to it I wonder if that would help ?

Once upon a time there was a wonderful place called Canad Inns Stadium. We must be careful not to speak about this time too loudly, but the memories of such a place warm us in this cold and horrible place and time we find ourselves in now.
There was parking for 33,000 vehicles within 20 steps of any entrance into the stadium. Hundreds of invisible doves flew constantly around the stadium and would sweep down and take anyone who could not walk these 20 steps easily and they would carry them right up to their seat. Every fan was treated with an incredible 7 course meal for the sum of $1, or pocket lint if they did not have a loonie.
It was such an incredible experience and everyone in the land was happy.
Then a dark cloud covered the land. An evil presence was felt by all in the great land of Winnipeg. A booming voice was heard by all and the ground trembled. It was the evil Asper!
The evil Asper tore down this beloved treasure, the Canad Inns Stadium. There was much weeping.
The evil Asper banished the invisible doves to the island of Hecla where they were forced to play golf on a deserted course day and night. There was much weeping - though they were also confused about the island of Hecla.
The evil Asper constructed a dungeon on a desolate and dark precipice of land that could only be reached by Sherpas riding mountain goats. The evil Asper then taxed the good people of the land of Winnipeg until they were all paupers in order to pay for his new dungeon that he named IGF. 10 times per year, the evil Asper and his evil henchmen would round up thousands of the now homeless people of Winnipeg and force them using pointed sticks and hobnail boots to walk the entire 100 mile stretch without the aid of mountain goats to reach his dungeon. While in this dungeon, the evil Asper forced the poor wretches to eat cold hotdogs and held them there until their families could find a way to scrape together the tonne of gold bricks that was needed to this sustenance. When the weather would get cold, he would even tell them that he had no hot chocolate! When the wailing was at its peak, they could hear the violin playing from the distant tower where the evil Asper would cackle and contemplate new indignities for his minions to endure while being held in his dungeon called the IGF.
And there was much weeping throughout the land.
Could there be a hero somewhere who could free the people of Winnipeg of their misery?
Too funny. Thanks for the laugh.

Theories abound on J. Manziel’s failed CFL debut. One thing that is irrefutable—The Cdn game is very different, 12th man, field size, motion etc., and J. Football simply hasn’t progressed far enough down the steep learning curve to draw any finite conclusions on his upside.
these comments about Johnny football makes strevelers debut in the CFL even more exciting right (?)...

those BC uniforms tonight are ugly.....and watching them against the Calgary colours just makes it all worse.......

What I miss about the old stadium/location was how easy it was to keep the party going. We travel from out of town and would stay at one of the hotels close by, when the game ended it literally took only minutes walking to a nearby restaurant or bar. Now waiting for everyone to load a bus to get back to your hotel takes long and kinda kills the party by the time you get back. If you know what I mean lol.

Aside from potentially Richie Hall calling bad plays against them, I highly doubt we'll have that much trouble against them. They'll get reminded quickly that we're not the sad sack Als.
K, good enough for me. I'm holding you to your word. 😃

Lol.....where did I ever call Calgary elite ?....all my opinion is , is that the term "elite" is being over used.
