  1. No that's just how he always plays. Guy is the best player in the league that no one ever talks about.
  2. Against Masoli as well wasn't it? That guy has given the Bombers tough games the last little while for whatever reason. Classic Lapo game though. Just good enough to barely lose. That clock management at the end of the first half was LOL.
  3. Yeah Rose was bad and picked on all night. I expect he will bounce back, and the D did tighten up in the 2nd half. Offense needs to be better, but when you don't play them in the preseason that's to be expected. I do wonder if we have enough of a deep threat, but Ellingson and Schoen looked good out there. Bailey and Demski will be fine. So I expect better next week.
  4. McMahon is worse than Canadinns was in my opinion.
  5. They are a huge part though. McMahon is a dump but they won't do anything about that until a new hockey arena is built so combine the crappy venue with high ticket prices and no marketing you get what is happening.
  6. That's calgary. They don't put a lotnof effort unto marketing the team and quite frankly they charge too much to sit in that shitty stadium.
  7. Sure was, good to have the CFL back.
  8. Yeah and the breakdown only happens because of the roster rules, which specify the maximum number of American players. It's not that they said you must start 7 national players, they said you can only have 20 americans + the 4 DIs which leaves..... 7 national starters. Yes this is a pedantic argument but technically correct is the best kind of correct.
  9. From your link, here is the relevant bit..... Of the 46 players named to the roster, each team may dress an active roster of 45 players, broken down as follows: Maximum of 2 QBs (no designation) Maximum of 20 American players (4 of which must be identified as designated Americans) Minimum of 21 National players Minimum of 2 Global players Therefore you get a "minimum" but that is simply due to the maximums placed on Americans.
  10. This is exactly it. There are no minimums for Canadians, only maximums for Americans which leads to minimum numbers for Canadians.
  11. By the time he gets good and truly drunk the old man will probably be ready for a nap.
  12. Powell is a good back.... but he is old as ****...
  13. Uniting the people who hate truedeau and the people who ******* hate trudeau
  14. Isn't there already a thread to hawk your wares in? Pet peeve of mine is when people use message boards for free advertising.
  15. More like they ser which way the wind is blowing and don't want any issues being people who didn't support the new leader.
  16. I heard the new owner in bc on the radio last season and he seemed to understand that you need to get asses in seats and was willing to put in the work so hopefully he is successful. If BC was a healthy market that would do wonders for the cfl.
  17. Demski. I feel like he is poised to really break out
  18. I believe that was the joke in the skit. They really enjoyed the comment sections
  19. Even though they had an offensive game plan that didn't even try and win the game? They bet that entire game on Andrew Harris carrying the day and the stamps D said no.
  20. **** can we revoke their franchise ownership? Try and market the team? Nah better **** up the league in a short sighted attempt to create value. ******* greedy fucks.
  21. but Suitor assured me on Tuesday night that Dickenson had addressed it!
  22. Totally orchestrated to prop up Toronto. Such bullshit. Though to be fair there were rumors that Edmonton was going to go full ***** and trade Ray. Speculation that Mike Kelly was going to try and trade Doug Brown as part of a deal for Ray if I remember right.
  23. It's not arbitrary, it is the number he has but he left some on the table with teams that were good enough to win. 2011, 2018 specifically stick in my craw as years that this team had a legit shot and were hampered by pansy assed offensive play calling. Oh please, I have disliked Lapo going back to the days with khari as qb. If not Nichols it was Bond. Solidified the OL and the offense improved. Go figure right?
  24. Maybe maybe not. Maybe the kicker got distracted by too many men prior to that kick. If he was truly a good coach he would have had more than 3 grey cup rings. Could have had one as a Bomber head coach if he even tried to win the game. Could have Maybe got further in 2018 if he tried to win the game.
