also if it had been a second down instead of a third down. Over-turning that call, albeit the right call to make, would probably have handed the game to the Bombers, and obviously the command center didn't have the cajones to do the right thing.

I re-watched and paused that Duke "catch" yesterday, going over it at least 10 times, and it's clear as day you can see the tip of the ball hit the ground. It's not even close. Someone needs to be fired over that call, that's beyond incompetence.

WBFB - do we keep tradition going and get into a massive online fight again and both get suspended like we did the week before Grey Cup 2019? Or do we sit back and enjoy this Grey Cup run and just talk football? I know I'd prefer the latter but I also don't want to mess with what worked for the Bombers last time 😁....also - man does that seem like a long time ago....

Watching his teeth chattering away in the post-game interview he probably was wondering how much he truly "loves" playing here in the late fall/winter lol. Hopefully next year the league goes back to a regular schedule as games in December in Canada just don't make much sense....

I hear that Elon Musk is working on this...

Was Hansen playing yesterday? I didn't recall seeing him anywhere on the field, but perhaps I was too focused on biting my nails to notice...

Happy Honker to Sara Orlesky for standing on that sideline freezing all game, including doing the post game interviews in that wind chill, AND THEN heading over to the arena to work the Jets game. They grow em pretty tough in Winnipeg....lol...

I agree. Especially in those kinds of conditions when the ball is a frozen slippery brick to begin with. When Bailey caught that ball I was yelling at my screen "GO DOWN!!" because I could see the same thing happening to Bailey as happened to Woli, and sure enough, in comes number zero on the Riders and punches out the ball. If you have first down, just go down on first contact, don't let the second man come in and punch out the ball.

They are also saying that CoFaj outplayed Collaros. Yup, CoFaj was on fire yesterday all right...🙄

yeah I can see that it would have been a giant pain to get your phones out in that weather, no worries. I don't think it would matter if Bomber fans had video of Duke trying to stick a shiv into Alexander on the sidelines, the CFL wouldn't do anything anyway. Onward and upward! Cup #12 time!

yes, I'm glad the Bombers survived that disgusting missed call. There might have been rioting in the streets otherwise.

yes there was.

I realize that it was freezing but do you think anyone had the wherewithal to haul out their phone and get some video?

I re-watched the last few minutes of the first half. BA hits Faj as he is sliding, and the Riders aren't happy about it. Next possession with 9 seconds left I saw Duke holding BA's head and talking into his ear hole. Then when the half is over, you see Faj and a bunch of Riders suddenly start running towards something, but there is no real explanation as to what is going on, as they cut to Duthie and Barker in the end zone. So we really had no idea what was going on for those watching on TV.

Why would they target Alexander?

he just doesn't want to get smoked by Brandon Alexander anymore....lol

Twenty minutes from now...lol...

yeah after the game Zach was being interviewed by Sara and despite his teeth chattering and totally shivering he was able to get out a few sentences and he referenced the "dirty tactics" of the Riders in the first half that made the Bombers lose their cool a bit.

I saw Zach reference the "dirty tactics" as well of the Riders - can someone elaborate? I must have missed it. Or Glen Suitor didn't draw the viewers attention to the Rider dirty tactics, for some reason....

well that was far too close, but I hope for grizzled old veterans like Speedflex this was some kind of revenge for 1972.

I am looking forward to "Dane in headlights" half time interview again next week....lol

1 and a half punts...

Hand pouring the CR just won't stop shaking....argh Miller argh argh argh
