Those 12 yarders were pretty intense

Bring Bob Essensa out of retirement, with Kirk Kielback to make him sound hot

Yeah I highly doubt Bryant needed to sign here. Every team starts one or two import tackles,and he's a good one

Ahhhh the old dime a dozen recruiting logic. I concluded years ago that there is no such thing. If it were true, we would've had better imports on the OL in recent years.

Suffice to say, Bomber fans are not even a little surprised by Chick's contract.

15 bucks in section M man - those were the days. Prime time view of several Kevin Glenn interceptions from there

I gotta agree to disagree with you on that one - I think people are starved for a winning team and looking for a good excuse to party.

One winning season is all it will take to fill the stadium again. Just give Manitobans a reason to cheer - they'll be back.

OK, let's take a shot... 1. Bo Levi Mitchell - smart, good arm, runs a dynamic offense 2. Zach Collaros - great arm, good variety and rhythm in his drives 3. Mike Reilly - unorthodox, tough, just win baby 4. Ricky Ray - still good if given the weapons, needs solid YAC receivers 5. Hank Burris - as opposed to Frank 6. Drew Willy - sound pocket passer, needs time in the pocket, needs a more effective short game 7. Trevor Harris - potential?? 8. Kevin Glenn - can still play, a poor man's Ricky Ray 9. John Jennings 10. Drew Tate - decent QB, inconsistent as a starter 11. Rakeem Cato - see Trevor Harris 12. Travis Lulay - duct tape? 13. Matt Nichols - not a bad backup, cheap currency 14. Jeremiah Masoli - decent backup, an unfortunate corn oil name 15. Brett Smith The Rest - throw mud at the wall and hope some of it sticks Like this Quote Edit Options Message for the 2013 Bombers: "Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably.

This just in: off - season @ IGF

And you need the number 4 in there somewhere - man, it's just an incomplete list.

Would say that it was employed based on the strengths of that particular OL?

The injury trend is not about to change anytime soon.

Yes. Charlie Roberts did rather well with subpar Olines over the years. An RB who produces YAC consistently would help the OL a great deal.

I don't even recognize all the names in the OP

At the risk of stating the obvious: it's the players who are right on the verge of making the NFL who make the most impact up here. The Henoc Muamba's & Doug Brown's of the world.

More diversity in your starting Canadians would also improve the quality of your special teams. In most of the games I watched this year, I found that the OL was over-matched by the DL. In almost every games, there seemed to be a DE that the OTs could not consistently contain and/or they were getting away with blatant holds. Management teams need to be taking a hard look at this trend.

I agree, not a big deal during the holidays. But still not very competent on their part

Audio books. We listen to Patrick Stewart's reading of A Christmas Carol every year - usually while we're on the road. It's fantastic. It's a Wonderful Life is my man cave movie - wife doesn't like it. Drinks: can never go wrong with scotch on the rocks. Or any decent whiskey on the rocks... Any food traditions beyond the usual turkey or goose? I make a steak dinner for the whole family at some point during the holidays. This year it'll be on Dec. 23rd.

Sorry man, I couldn't resist. Cheerio.

Make fun of people is easy - it doesn't make you sound anywhere near as intelligent as you think it does.

Truth. And overall there was never a clear winner of the war. But it did lead to the creation of a border in 1818. Fears of American Invasion never really subsided - they were one of the reasons for Confederation and the building of the CPR.

Impossible to say. It's more likely they had vision of weapons today and if they did would never want the citizenry to possesses them. The interpretation of the amendment that it was for the citizenry to act as a militia in the absence of a strong central army is fair. At the time the Americans expected that the British would re-organize and try to take back the 13 colonies at some point, and so they wanted to make sure every American had a gun and could be mobilized should the British sweep over the border from Canada and start another armed conflict. Turns out that they were right, as in 1812 war broke out again. And the British walked into Washington and burned down the president's mansion, but not before eating the dinner that President Madison had left behind when he and his staff fled the city. The British tried to burn down Washington, but it was saved by a hurricane that put out all of the fires. Weird eh? That was only after the Americans made repeated attempts to take Quebec. Their ultimate goal was to control the entire continent, until they found out Canadians and the British would fight back.

Because no matter how much people whine and ***** about them people still read them and they probably sell more papers than the reporters do. I'd imagine it has to due with seniority. I don't think they sell papers or create hits. I'd suspect a Sinclair or Broadbeck does. Indeed - can we expect anything else from a paper that publishes Tom Broadbeck and his simplistic 6th grade rants?

Probably the same napkins the Kyoto Accord was written on
