  1. How about because Davis is a raw rookie and RUSHING QBS TENDS TO RUIN THEM MORE OFTEN THAN NOT
  2. I thought the Bombers were using him as a deep threat while Edmonton was using him for short - medium range ? Edmonton is just throwing him a million passes a game.
  3. Yeah **** that guy for having a poor 2nd season! No one ever has a poor season and rebounds. Guarantee that if we move on from Lirim and he goes on to another team and rebounds you'll be first in line to ***** and moan about them letting him get away. Wow, dude. Just chill. I'm perfectly chill, but you are throwing a guy under the bus for one poor season and you have a history of bitching and moaning about players that have left this team and then gone on to do well.
  4. Well Walters was the top NI scout when Mack was here, perhaps Mack is taking too much heat from fans?
  5. His playoff performances will primarily be what keeps him from being regarded as one of the top-10 QBs of all time in the CFL. Even in the 2008 Grey Cup, he didn't play all that impressive. It was more a case of him sucking less than Calvillo in that game. 08 game was also in Montreal so it was inside a dome. For a fine example of Burris in the playoffs in the cold see Hamilton in Regina a few years ago. Guy was absolutely useless. He's the ultimate fair weather qb. Looks great in the summer but when the weather gets bad he's useless.
  6. As a shameless Khari fanboi I say bring the man in.
  7. Goldfinger is my favourite Bond movie.
  8. Well would Ottawa have been finishing first in the east if Toronto or Hamilton hadn't had the injuries they did? Ottawa's key to success this year was being the only team to stay healthy at qb and offensive line. Makes a huge ******* difference. Excuses and stats are for losers. Reasons not excuses. You'd have to be some kind of stupid not to recognize the huge advantage that being the healthiest team imparts. If you don't have to test the depth of your team it's an advantage. Calgary's season is impressive because they over came a lot of injuries, Edmonton over came a bunch of injuries that's impressive, Ottawa remained healthy and I ain't impressed by it.

  10. I liked the game from Davis. Seemed to go to the right places with the ball even if the results weren't great I saw enough to say there might be something there with this guy. I want to see him in an offense that isn't crippled by crappy players and an even worse offensive coordinator.
  11. And again it's not about being negative or being positive, it's about going full *****, which is bad. You never go full *****.
  12. The thing is you really can't compare The Penguins and Blackhawks. The hawks defence is led by guys like Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook, the Pens have Kris Letang. Hardly a fair comparison right?
  13. Casino Royale was awesome, the other two were meh. I really didn't like Skyfall and Quantum of Solace you could tell was made during the hollywood writers strike. It is watchable but not nearly as good as Casino Royale was. I think Craig is a good Bond but other than Casino (haven't seen Spectre yet) he's been let down by the films themselves
  14. I don't know about that. A new GM might like the guy. He might not but it's not like O'Shea was a totally out of left field hire for head coach.

  16. They can cite climate change all they like but that's just out and out lying. They're trying to protect their own interests nothing more. I hate when climate change is used as a political tool. Call it what it is, don't want competition for the American oil production. I'm not sure if that's it. I think they're just buckling under to environmentalists. Nah it's just better PR to use that reason when in reality it's all about caving to American oil interests. There are pipelines all over the US and they won't stop building them, but oil from Canada? No thanks. Score some PR points by bullshitting about climate change (a key tool for politicians these days)
  17. The last one Pierce Brosnan did was a steaming pile of crap, I'm sure if I cared to go remember some of the Roger Moore ones I'd add to the list pretty quickly.
  18. The team all stems from the GM. He puts his scouts in place, he hires his coach. If there's a problem on the team look no further than the guy who put the pieces in place. Now maybe you could go higher up the chain to the man who hires the GM, but for this discussion I think it's best to say that we need a better performance from our GM. If I could only replace one member of the Bombers staff it's obviously Bellefool, but if I could make 2 changes Kyle Walters is #2.

  20. It's not one specific thing, it's about not over reacting to anything. Winnipeg fans are really bad for that. Win and everything is the greatest!!11!!! Lose and everything is complete crap. Mike Kelly was right about the bi-polar nature of this fan base. A little more rationality would make things infinitely more tolerable.
  21. As I said before, they loved Skyfall which was pretty crappy all in all so perhaps reviewers just don't know what they're talking about? I dunno see how it is I suppose.
  22. Preseason starts early.
  23. MURICA!
  24. Honestly, who do you see paying more than Winnipeg? Who has the need that we do for receivers?
