yeah, at times Collaros reminded me of Clements too. Tommy wasn't the fastest or strongest, especially compared to a modern QB, but he was like an eel in the pocket and could throw dimes on the move.

The Chapter 3 moment when every lowlife's comm buzzes at the same time and you realize half a second later what's to come ... that was a fantastic moment. The bit with Carl Weathers and the bar of mando-metal at the end was a nice touch. I'm really digging how underexplained it is. But I'm also really curious about the whys and hows and etc of the "all but one of us are underground at any time" Mando thing. Is that like just on this one planet or is it something the Mandos do all across the entire galaxy? And it's kinda weird to bring something like that up and then throw it away almost immediately like they do, although the scene where the Mandos reveal themselves is pretty dope looking.

yeah, remember back in the bad old days when losing both Gauthier and Picard in a single offseason set the Bomber OL back five years?

Did you know the Blue Bombers are 2-0 in the playoffs against the TiCats since the 2009 Boat Game? LONG LIVE THE BOAT CURSE!

13 points given up per game in the playoffs. 5+ takeaways per game. At least one critical turnover on downs in each game. 2x in the Grey Cup!

CANADIAN MAFIA

Memories of Jones / Mikawos vs Brock in 1984. Eating em raw.

GLORIOUS

Some vintage Good Lapo there.

I want revenge for the 2009 Boat Game.

in the dopamine blast aftermath of the WF win I was seriously considering driving to Calgary for the Grey Cup (about 12 hours one way, without considering the border) But the last time I saw a Bomber win live was in Ottawa in 1996. Since then they are something like 0-12 in games I've watched from the stands. So I am staying the hell away.

you know the guy who could've had a monster game but came just short? Sayles. Aside from the miffed pick late in the red zone, there was another big moment in the second half where the greenies ran a sweep to their right. Sayles came at that play like he was shot out of a goddamn cannon, he was moving too fast to block, he got at least one hand on the ball carrier... ...who slipped away, reversed field, and ran for a first down. Dude is a freak athlete but kinda lacks finish, reminds me of Brandon Stewart in that way.

I don't like to use the word "hero" lightly....

I need to go back and look at Streveler's snaps -- don't recall even one play where we used sideways motion to widen the D and make some room for him to run inside. And others in the game day thread noted that Harris wasn't in the backfield for a lot of those plays, so no option play potential there. My impression was that Lapo hung second-biggest Chris out to dry on Sunday.

Medlock has hit his last 20 attempts. Hasn't missed in almost two months, including 8/8 in the playoffs, and has not missed a step with McGuire as his holder instead of Streveler.

It's South Seattle. Anyone reading this shows up, they def drink for free.

Grey Cup on my birthday! Just sent out the facebook invite for my cake party that afternoon. gonna have a house full of temporary Bomber fans, gotta stock up on fries, gravy, and blue facepaint.

wife was napping in the next room. woke her up with all the yelling after the Sayles missed pick...

Props to Fajardo for gutting that game out. Zach Collaros Player of the Game in the 2019 Western Final ... for the Bombers. Hell of a timeline we're on.

I was sure I was gonna regret this but not today death, not today. Payback for the 1994 Dunigan shot off the post....

...but shouldn't it be intentional grounding? didn't go past the LOS, no eligible receiver nearby.

yup, that's a throw.

WE'RE GOING TO THE GREY CUP!!!!!!!!

why is medlock punting it straight down the middle of the field?
