So now we get a federal carbon tax instead, woulda been better to keep the Alberta one and at least maintained control.

Notley faught for the province. Trudeau and the federal liberals yeah they piss all over Alberta, but Notley did a lot of good for this province.

Alberta only thinks they're conservative. It's actually pretty progressive, just blindly votes conservatives cause they think conservatives make it boom.

Bauming is going to have quite the tab buying us all pizza.

No they really don't, but you would be shocked at the number of very smart people I have met who believe Kenney can get the economy booming again.

Lucky says me too also?

Streveler.

A leopard can't change it's spots.

Nichols was a bit jumpy about the Edmonton pass rush. Wonder if he watched too many highlights of those guys crushing Reilly the week before. I'd expect him to calm down for this week.

Calgary would be stupid to not give BLM time to recover. Summer football is largely meaningless in the CFL. They will need that guy come fall.

Dear "Suits" why are you such a terrible broadcaster to the point where Inwould rather listen to Duane Forde monotoning his way through a game?

Glenn might be better than Nichols except for one area that makes all the difference.... mental toughness. Glenn is a mental midget, Nichols much better ability to overcome adversity.

Next Friesen article : Bombers too focused locally, missing tons of great talent from rest of the country.

Simple fact is the Bombers whole philosophy is to take plays when they are there, but don't take risks and win by making less mistakes than the other team. It's worked pretty well lately, fancy stats be damned.

So much worry about offensive numbers... Winnipeg doesn't play for offensive numbers. They play safe, which means low risk on offense and rely on special teams to shift field position in their favour and defense to get the ball back for them.

People can have any opinion they want, all that matters is whether they are comfortable defending that opinion in a logical manner. You believe crazy **** cause it's what you feel and don't want it questioned at all, well then you can piss off, but if you're willing and able to justify it then all good.

Yeah Popp is poopy without a qb to carry him. The Argos might be the worst team I've seen, and I have seen some bad ones....

Will the Argos even win a game? That team just looks smelly bad.

So much this. Lots of people claim objectivety but in reality what they do is focus on what the Bombers do poorly and what other teams do well. Calgary hasn't looked good this year and BC has looked awful. West right now based on the first 3 weeks of the season has Winnipeg and Edmonton as the top teams in the west and it's not close. Right at this moment.

******* idiot coaches...

lots of shitty qbs had great preseasons too. The point is that a guy needs to throw more than 34 passes in real time to be ranked anywhere with any accuracy.

Nichols is a good short to medium passer in my books, iffy on the long balls. Not as quick as he was with his feet at one point, but the number of injuries the guy has had to his legs that happens. I think he's generally got a good attitude and leads the team but has on occasion lost it. He has shown the ability to regain that in the past though. No one is claiming that Matt Nichols is the pinnacle of a quarterback, all people are saying is that he does some good things out there and has done some very good things for this team so the people who come in here and treat him like he's TJ Rubley are out of line. No one is claiming that Matt Nichols played well against Edmonton, all we are doing is arguing this insane talk that he's a trash quarterback because reasons. I mean Mitchell and Reilly are the top quarterbacks in the CFL no questions asked. On paper Harris might appear better than Nichols but the results don't match up to the numbers for Harris in my opinion and I have Nichols and Harris as a teir below the top guys, you want to put Harris ahead of Nichols I'll go with that, but it's not some huge gap between the two of them based on the results. Masoli I don't believe is all that good. beating up the weak sisters of the league right now doesn't make him an elite quarterback. So yeah, barring paying 3/4 of a million per year for a qb we're doing OK at the position.

all 34 passes he's thrown and you got him as 5th best?

They tried to win on the backs of Harris while the stamps D took that away. Lapo failed hard bringing the rider game plan against a much better team.

**** that noise, it was entirely the game plan that neutered the offense.
