Wilson looked blocked out on that play but he just disregarded the blocker. nice.

baby steps hah! gmta!

damn I am way behind, gotta restart the stream...

love how Bailey plays that comeback route, he catches the ball seven yards downfield, turns around four yards downfield, runs straight ahead back to seven yards downfield. Doesn't do any useless lateral running.

swarm to the ball! love to see it.

that drive was basically a three-minute punt. turnover sucks but BC has to drive the field now.

seems like Bailey has found his extra gear since we signed Roosevelt

4 minutes something.

nice.

draws em offside for a first down. veteran savvy.

remember the season this team didn't even bring Jake Thomas to camp? guy has been a rock since then. and his emergence helped give us DA at safety, so he has been enormous for us even beyond his play.

Wolitarski playing in traffic!

DONT SAY CHIPPY ROD BLACK

Harris rediscovered his giddyup ... he's been solid since he came back but but he's vintage tonight

Wolly does a Petermann!

once you splash out for the gear, it's way cheaper to do the field painting digitally. Plus you can sell the same place on the field to multiple clients, gives you more ad inventory to sell at a cheaper price, which can greatly expand your client base.

they can't cope with that pass rush. Reilly facing pressure almost immediately. EDIT: but he's Michael Reilly and he knows how to manage a dirty pocket...

that bomb to Demski didn't quite connect but damn our line kept Collaros clean on that play. Looked like he had 2-3 more steamboats to go before he'd have to worry about the pass rush.

mine too.

looking for Ali to kill it in his second chance game.

I remember back in March 2020 initially I was kind of excited to be working from home all the time because it meant I'd get to watch the first half of CFL eastern games .. I'm using working and commuting 4:30->6:00pm. but then 2020 loled at that.

Can't really start a weekday game in the pacific team zone at a good time for people back east. You start the game at 4:30 local, no one will be in the stands, they'll be at work or in traffic or on the ferry from the island or picking up their kids from karate or whatever. As long as the CFL is a gate league and not a TV money league, we'll have this problem.

Reilly is looking good, he threw a deep ball the other week that was a pure 2014 Reilly ... 55-60 yards, hit his receiver in perfect stride. Gotta wonder if he's taking Toradol shots ... the NFLPA just warned its membership to use less of it. He's listed as questionable on the depth chart, who knows if that means anything though. Have seen this guy beat us singlehandedly in his salad days, so I never count him out.

I don't know if it made news here but there was a big story in the Freep about Lori Pierce (Buck Pierce's wife) and her cancer battles .. she's had a way rougher ride than me, with breast cancer and then leukemia and a bone marrow transplant in the middle of the 2020 pandemic that required her immune system to be completely flattened. I can't imagine what she's been through. https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/bombers/bucks-team-survives-brutal-life-blitz-574849812.html

Hey MBB, just wanted to share some news and some thanks. Earlier this year I was diagnosed with lung cancer. I had surgery in May and started chemo in July and it sucked like chemo does ... was quarantined at home, couldn't do much of my regular life fun stuff .. I was bored out of my mind, and I have not been bored in years. Then the CFL season started and I discovered that lying on the couch and yelling at mapleball and hanging out in the forums with the good folks here was something I could manage (chemo comas permitting). So the CFL and MBB was a big big deal to me this year, it really helped me get thru by giving me twelve hours of low effort fun to look forward to every week. This is a thank you to everyone here for that, especially the mods who built and run this place. Had my last chemo yesterday, I'm in complete remission, and my prognosis is good. Back to life, back to reality. Thanks again and **** the cancer that stole 2021 from me. ps. it's impossible to say why I got cancer, I'm a nonsmoker ... but the single biggest cancer risk factor in my background was that I grew up with chainsmoking parents in the age of indoor smoking. That damage increases your cancer risk forever. Don't smoke in the car with the kids, friends.
