Week 2 Other Games (Als vs Ott Sask vs TO Ham vs BC)
17to85 replied to Jpan85's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I know as Bomber fans we're supposed to **** all over him but Durant is a good qb, if he's healthy that's a big plus for the Riders. -
Week 2 Other Games (Als vs Ott Sask vs TO Ham vs BC)

Sadly we've seen more rider losses than bomber wins lately. -
Oh no it's terrible, I was using the term in the sense that yeah it's bad but at least....
-
So first of all, the value difference between Eberle and Yakupov is significant AND there is no way that Edmonton gives up one of them AND Nurse and only gets Barrie back who needs a new contract. The Hall and Larsson deal might suck but at least Larsson had a long cheap contract.
-
It was Walters not O'Shea that put such a poor OL on the field and had no qb depth behind Willy so I don't buy your argument. Our receivers besides the oft injured Moore were pretty terrible last year as well and I am not convinced that we are really any better at that position this year either with Dressler on the shelf.

The new Rider stadium looks great but why did they ...

The problem is that if you fire MOS it's still the ineffectual Kyle Walters at GM. Unless you think we have all sorts of talent and the coaches are simply not getting the best out of it... but me I think this team lacks talent more than it lacks coaching.

Because if Edmonton had anyone like Weber they wouldn't have needed to trade for a defenceman in the first place. Chiarelli got desperate and sold Hall for pennies on the dollar. There are no character issues or salary issues or any of that, simply desperation for a right handed defenceman and paid a premium to gamble on Larsson developing into a guy that might be worth Hall some day. He better turn into that guy though cause Taylor Hall is one of the absolute best 5 on 5 point producers in the NHL, and he's done it on a shitty team with a terrible puck moving blue line backing him up. Just gross that there wasn't even a token plus coming back from the Devils.

Etch seemed like a nice guy, Jones is just a dink. Guy obviously has some insecurities to be that confrontational with everyone. -
So true, just complete ******* the sports fans in this city. On and off the bandwagon like you wouldn't believe.
-
Sometimes if you think a prospect is worth it you bring them in even if you have a lot of bodies at that position.
-
well there you go, I guess the answer is simple, people making **** up just for the sake of being negative. What a sad way to live having to invent reasons to be miserable.

Well if Chris Jones is being a dink that would be the first time ever.... -
so just yo-yo players in and out after mistakes, cause that will get the best out of everyone. All you do then is make players afraid to do anything.
-
seen plenty of 20 point come backs in the CFL, why is this one arbitrarily garbage time? Because it fits your narrative?
-
Except he missed a bunch of deep throws that could have got field position and kept the offense on the field. People seem to forget that. It's not just the big plays, if you miss a throw on 2nd down you take yourself off the field and who knows what would have happened if you'd got a fresh set of downs. You can play the what if game with every team in every game. Trying to use it to prove anything one way or the other is just playing silly buggers.

Posters: Whats different this young season?
17to85 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
His problem was he wanted desperately for everyone to kiss his ass as some kind of insider, except he didn't know enough about football to ever get he respect he wanted. Seriously he kept posting his observations from camp, which is great but he kept seeing things no one else did. I remember comparing my views to his last year after we were there and he was so out to lunch it was laughable. -
if you want to play the oh so close what if game there are plenty of just misses that the Bombers had that could have changed the game too. It's a fools errand to try and do that though.
-
I was talking with Noeller about Dressler coming back and Harris being proven veterans who know what to do out there and how much that can help Willy. We really have lacked that kind of security blanket for a qb for a long long time.

yeah the amount of stupid **** I read after game 1 was just mind blowing. People have been so beaten down after the last couple seasons they lose all hope instantly. -
If you are willing to pay there's plenty of parking at the university, that's what I always do when coming from the south because who wants to ride the train for that long after a game?
-
Historically the bombers are crap everywhere. Lots of poor records over the last span.
-
No simply pointing out that you could use one of those things in the picture there when you start throwing out statements like you made.

Crazy thoughts from a desperate and disillusioned Bomber fan ...

someone took a crap where the dressing room will be right? Oh wait that might just be their regular starting line up.
