The Bombers better not go over 1,000 against BC or throw any passes over 20 yards in the 4th quarter or they'll be accused of running up the score.

Jerome Messam signs with Riders
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I still remember some reporter saying in the Argo dressing room Pinball had the acronym FIOFO - "Fit in or *%$& off". O'Shea was playing for the Argos in those days, so he would know how important it was for everyone to be part of "the team" and not an individual. -
CFL Week 3 Winnipeg vs Montreal Preview

What? The Bombers are underdogs? I'm thinking there's money to be made here somehow... -
CFL Week 3 Winnipeg vs Montreal Preview

Unless one of the guys on defence gets hurt. Then what? -
Yeah, that's my worry too. O'Shea's contract comes up and internet boy opens the vault for him with the Ti-cats to get him to move back home. It's what I would do.

CBC's CFL Power Rankings Week 2
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yeah I was thinking that too. Hamilton looks like they are sinking into the abyss, and all they have to do is follow the script from 2012-2013 for us. I just don't get how both Winnipeg and Hamilton could have botched their opening day predictions so badly. -
I think with O'Shea it's huge dollops of positive energy mixed in with confidence, professionalism, a passion for and deep knowledge of the game, all topped off with an obsessive drive to win at almost all costs. We as fans are enamored by this as it has been so long since we have seen it. I think back to all my years of Bomber history to find a similar type coach and the only name that comes up is Mike Reilly.

Didier Orméjuste @DidierRDS Did Sean Whyte lose his job? Nick Boyd is handling the kicking duties at practice. #Alouettes #CFL -
http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/bombers/blue-experience-culture-shock-266371681.html I don't know why this story made my heart glow, either it was the story about all the Bombers that want to visit sick kids, or that Wiecek actually wrote something worth reading.

Gavins fined for dirty hit on Drew Willy
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I know I am going to regret this but....what the hell are you saying? That O'Shea would order a player to go out and intentionally injure the QB of the other team? Seriously? -
So then just have the lower bowl open for the first few games. It will be like going to Bomber games in 1976.

Jerome Messam signs with Riders
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I figure after the Riders get tired of him, Huffer will give him a shot to replace Cornish if/when he can't return thanks to his beheading by Hebert. Will we want him? I hope not. -

Iso you should check out Aussie Rules football. It's really entertaining. And no pads. Real men play that sport. I went to every game I could when I lived in Perth. -

Jerome Messam signs with Riders
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Scenario: O'Shea: So Gerome, you're a big strong guy and I understand that you don't want to contribute to our special teams? Messam: That's right Mr. O'Shea, that's right.. O'Shea: I hear that the Stamps are looking for a National RB. Here's Huffer's number. -

Good point - with Messam in the line up we totally would have won the first two games of the season...oh wait... -

They both suck so I'm not too worried about them. It's Alex Brink that we have to be scared of in my opinion. -
AFL ON TSN2 Right Now
kelownabomberfan replied to JuranBoldenRules's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I saw a game a few weeks ago with the LA Kiss playing the Spokane Somethings or Others. I turned it off when Gene Simmons came on as a commentator as it made the putrid football I was watching so much the more terrible. I was wondering how long it would be before Gene and his gang turned their football team into another self-glorifying fake "reality" show, and sure enough, it's just been announced they are doing one with the football team. That guy has to be self-promoting 24/7. Anyway, he's doing for the AFL what Murray Pezim did for the CFL, in other words, making it much worse. The only AFL I like watching is Aussie Rules - go Dockers!! -
So long as he doesn't blow out his only other ACL...

Gavins fined for dirty hit on Drew Willy
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I watched that hit on Willy several times and it's actually mystifying what Grigsby was thinking there as he watches Gavins just run by him. That kind of "non-block" on that play leading to your QB getting smoked is a career killer. Ask Corey Boyd if you don't believe me. -

Willis fined for hit on Collaros
kelownabomberfan replied to gbill2004's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree. There was no reason for Willis to smoke Collaros like that. With good QB's at a premium in this league that kind of bullshit just can't be tolerated. Look at the other extreme - Vega could have KO'd Burris the same way with the free shot he had but instead he held up to avoid a fine/penalty and ended up with Burris tossing it into the stands. I think that in the future, where the QB is in the grasp, the play should be dead immediately. Burris got away with two of those last week where our guys tried to stay in the bounds of legality and lost two sacks because of it. Good on our guys for keeping a quality QB alive, but on the other hand, they deserved those sacks because of it.
