What the hell are you talking about? Where did I say that he has more talent than Collaros? I just said that he has innate talent. And that he was born to play in this league. Well then I guess we've been watching two different QB's. Marve can throw with deadly accuracy on the run. Brohm couldn't throw with any accuracy from the pocket. I want to see what Marve can do. I've seen enough of Brohm to know that he can't do anything.

I thought I saw Willy on the sidelines in a ball cap in the second half?

I have a lot of respect for your football knowledge. That being said, I have been watching CFL football for 40 years or so. Brohm is awful. Marve has more innate talent then i've seen in any quarterback in the CFL since Tom Clements or Matt Dunigan. He was born to play in this league. If the Winnipeg coaches can't see that, it will cost them their jobs.

Watching Brohm out there just had me screaming WHY at the TV. I was having Boltus flashbacks.

As far as I'm concerned the NHL can blow it out their keesters. The Bombers need these Grey Cup events for survival. The Heritage Classic is an over-done gimmick that truly sucks ass.

LOL - this reminds me of the joke about the guy climbing the ladder to success.

Pretty much on par with this year. Considering the outrage of Jets fans blaming the Bombers on the cancellation of the Heritage Classic, and all the negativity surrounding the stadium, that's pretty impressive. ??? I never heard about any of this? The Bombers cancelled the Heritage Classic? Personally I think it's stupid to call something a "classic" before it's even been played, and I also think that paying $300 for the privilege of sitting in a stsdium in -40C to watch a bunch of millionaires skating around at half speed is just stupid.

That Kings team appears to be falling apart. Lombardi must have put a few years of aging on in the past six months.

Yes, not only did Tampa acquire a leader/character guy in Callahan, they also acquired two late first round picks from the Rangers (the Rangers received Tampa's 2015 second rounder when Callahan re-signed with Tampa) which they then converted into three second-round picks and one third round pick. In 2014 they traded their first round pick from NYR to the Islanders for the Islander's two second round picks, and then in 2015 they DID IT AGAIN and traded their first round pick from the Rangers to the Islanders for the Islander's second-round and third round picks. Weird that the Islanders would do almost the same trade two years in a row with Tampa. So the end result of the St. Louis/Callahan trade: To New York: Marty St. Louis - played two seasons and has now retired Draft pick received - second rounder in 2015 - traded to Arizona as part of Keith Yandle trade (ended up then being traded to Calgary, who took Oliver Kylington) To Tampa: Ryan Callahan - signed six year contract in 2014, has five years remaining Draft picks received from NYR: 2014: Dominick Masin (D), Jonathon Macleod (D) 2015: Mitchell Stephens ©, Anthony Cirelli © If even one of these four guys makes the Lightning in the next two - three years then Stevie Y. won that trade hands down.

It's not a good statement to make when other teams fans are wishing you could play ... Bryant Turner just has to belch on Grigsby and he would fall down.

I was hoping that the Tabbies would hit us with a whole lot of Grigsby tonight, given how many yards we gave up to the run last week. Sadly, he's still on the one-game injured list...

We knew it was only a matter of time. You can only delay Judgment Day, you can't stop it.

Another FA off the market: Frank Seravalli ✔ @frank_seravalli Marty St. Louis has announced his retirement at the age of 40. The 2004 Hart Trophy winner had 52 points in 74 games last season. #TSN That Callahan trade was a steal for the Lightning. Wow.

Here's my impression of Zach Collaros after three quarters of Bryant Turner and Zach Anderson chasing him around the field...

Picard (in an outrageous French accent): Hey Johnnie! Here's some love from the O-line!! I know you are ticklish! Tickle tickle!!! Chick: Hey Dom, cut that out! That's not cool!! You know I don't like being tickled! Oh hey your shoulder pads are crooked, let me push them back on to your shoulders for you. Picard: Oh hey thanks. We should go for soda and pie after the game. Oh look at that, we just scored a TD. Chick: Yeah that's a great idea. I love soda and pie! Oh darn, wadda ya know, that guy just went right by me and here I am fixing your shoulder-pads. Shame on me. See you next series! Picard: Looking forward to it Johnnie!! Chick: No more tickling though! Ha ha!!

http://www.stampeders.com/article/nifty-5050 Wow - three years without a job? I thought Alberta was the land of plenty...yikes. Feel good story though, glad this family won the prize. Also glad that they can still make it to Stamps games and support the CFL, despite their personal hard-ships. Die-hard CFL fans!

In what position? Full-back.

Because it's annoying as all hell. There are a ton of gappers living in Calgary and Alberta in general so you run into a ton of them and they are just obnoxious about their fandom, even if they are the people who jumped on the bandwagon. I have nothing but respect for the Rider fans who were actually die hard fans through the crappy years, it's the new fans that piss me off cause they only came to the team recently and have no appreciation for how quickly fortunes can change in the CFL. As a long time fan myself I don't appreciate the idiots either. I remember the 70's and mostly early 80's, getting hammered 50-0 by the esks, as a kid just hoping we could get a td so I could cheer for one of my hero's. Those were dark days for my Riders. I'm enjoying that we are better now. I don't laugh and make fun of the struggles the Bombers have suffered. To the serious fan that hurts bad and sucks. Its painful and disheartening to watch ones team struggle with no apparent end in sight. I'm happy to see the Bombers turning it around and would love to see u guys in the cup this year at home. Obviously I hope its not at our expense however. But there are some young fans in Manitoba who weren't around to see how good the Bombers have been in the past. I think you guys have suffered enough and think the fog is lifting and there are brighter days ahead. I still hope we beat u every time we play you. My 1990 Grey Cup Champs T-shirt I still wear with pride is older than a lot of the posters here.

Neufeld may not be aware of it, but that ship seems to have already sailed. Chung did not look out of place on the O-line last week. If he continues to play like he did against the Mustache Riders, he's gotta stay there and keep getting more experience. Man he's going to be a beauty if he can stay healthy. I'm looking forward this week to seeing more replays of Picard punching defence-less D-lineman in the ribs while being screened from the ref, and watching them go ballistic as Marshall and Cotton barrel right by them.

He might get them to the playoffs, and then in the playoff game, throw five interceptions, and then after the game, just shrug and smile and say "it's just a game".

http://www.leaderpost.com/sports/football/roughriders-football/VANSTONE+McCallum+provides/11180893/story.html Clearly, this was a brilliant signing and yet another sign that the Grey Cup is all but won by the Riders already.... This made me laugh.
