all right, if it's ok for me to pick first again, I'm going with Messam this week against a Montreal team that has totally disintegrated. That being said, I have no problem taking Andrew Harris again either as I think he's going to shred the Eskimos. Let me know.

thanks for summarizing my entire time as a Bomber fan from 2009 to 2014.

true, but that being said, any sports involving snow and cold seem to be predominated by white people. Probably because the sports that are played in countries with cold climates are predominately Caucasian, at this current moment in time. Not sure why that is somehow a bad thing. As demographics change, this trend will change, and I'm totally in favour of that.

No I'm not suggesting that. I just don't know why suddenly "mostly white" NHL hockey teams are even a "thing"? So what? Are you equally angry that a lot of basketball teams are "mostly black"? Why are we focusing on race at all? Who the hell cares?

LOL - come on man, back down a bit on the histrionics. Could you even form an NHL team with non-white players? It's the whitest sport in the world, next to maybe that sport where the guys cross-country ski and then shoot out targets with a gun. It's no surprise that the Pittsburgh Penguins are "mostly white". Do they have any players who aren't white? Man I hate this racial crap. Who cares what race any player is. That's what bugs me about Trump wading into this cesspool. Last week no one really cared if a player wanted to kneel during an anthem. Now it's all politics. Just meh. I was listening to Howard Stern this morning and he was saying that sports is the one place you could go to escape politics, and now fans don't even have that. Just barf.

speaking as a Bomber fan living far far away, there is nothing on earth that would prevent me from being a season ticket holder for the Blue and Gold if I actually lived within driving distance of IGF. Nothing. You just don't appreciate what you have.

Did I ever tell you guys about the time that Blaszko and I took a hot air balloon trip over Los Angeles? Blaszko brings an atomic bomb and drops it on the city! Then, he looks at me and says, "It would have happened sooner or later."

Need someone to help with the harvest.

I wouldn't mind seeing what happened to Winnipeg in 1992 and 2007 happen to Calgary this year, and Bo Levi go down near the end of the season and Calgary having to play a green-horn QB. Even with a great team, losing your starter for a Sammy Garza/Ryan Dinwiddie/Andrew Buckley is pretty insurmountable. About time this happened to Calgary instead of us.

really seeing how much our receiving corp suffered last year after he went down. We might have gotten further in the playoffs last year with him in the line up.

Stamps D is dominant in a way I haven't seen since the days of Tyrone Jones and Dan Kepley.

what no love for Brett Blaszko? Did I tell you guys about the time.... :) Not sure if anyone noticed but Thorpe was quietly replaced on the P/R by another receiver, named Chris Givens. He last played in the NFL in 2016.

I definitely took them in my pick em pool. Who didn't? The Lions should have won that game hands down. The red zone decision-making was atrocious. Whoever is responsible should be fired.

Not sure I follow the math there....(28 + 9)/2 = 18.5. Stats can be misleading though. If you include the last three weeks the D has only given up 12.3 pts per game! (Bye weeks count right?)

I thought we saved the airing of grievances for Festivus. At the very least we should have some feats of strength while we are at it.

I can't believe how many times the Lions were only a few yards out and refused to hand off to Johnson, instead throwing that useless fade route twice and kicking a field goal. Cost them the game! So stupid.

good then I want Tucker Poolman to be rookie of the year, Helle to win the Vezina and Laine to win the Rocket Richard award.

What if he plays for 12 more years?

since when?

we have just been spoiled by Hnidy. Any other one-eyed ex NHL'ers out there looking for work? Bryan Berard? Manny Maholtra?

and he's from Florida.

I liked how Davis ran out in front of Flanders and tried to block for him after the hand-off. He totally just bounced off of some Ottawa guy. I was surprised that Dunigan didn't make a comment as it was kind of funny.
