Gord Miller really developed a complex lately where he thinks he's the smartest guy in the booth. If he'd just stick to doing play by play he'd be fine but he drifts into the colour commentary role too often that it really ruins his broadcasts for me. Cuthbert is the best play by play man in the business and it's not even close. Dunigan is the best colour man but it's mostly cause he's just a football fan having a blast on the air. Suitor is terrible and Duane Forde is trying too hard to be colourful. If he'd go back to just being the boring persona I'd like him a lot more. Forde was making me laugh with the OH HELL NO comments after the Sharknado intro by Rod Plaque. Lol, Rod Plaque. Lyle would just love that nickname. Indeed. Makes me sad that we may never see him call a hockey game again because of those power and money hogs over at Sportsnet. He's far better than most of those guys that they hired. The quality of Rogers hockey is plain awful. All. All of those guys that they hired.

Ahh I had two guys behind me talking about living in MB back in the 80s and now living in AB full time. I was curious

hey Al -- you weren't in Section Q by chance, were you? Sayyyyy...like Row 14?

Best hockey PBP, best football PBP.....Cuthbert is fantastic.

you are being way too positive. I want to say "there's no such thing.." but..........Spuds.........

We won last year...killed the demon, as far as I'm concerned. Same as winning in Regina...it counts. Now, to Commonwealth......

Exorcising the Commonwealth demon next week (to go along with the McMahon and Taylor ones...) would be a fine start to this end.....

Punch for punch with the champs. Let's go exorcise another demon next weekend...

Cheers to the folks with some sense of the big picture. Keep treading water at .500 or better till the fall and I like where we're at. Just keep getting incrementally better...

Thanks for doing this thread, Ty...needed this. Said to the girl on the way home, the one positive I take is that I like our chances next time. We handed this game like a Christmas present.

Another great option I have is when I downloaded the Netflix and YouTube apps on my phone (LG G2),it syncs with my TV. If I watch either of those apps, I have the option to stream via my TV instead of my phone. Kicks ass...

Well, sitting at a Jameson's Pub along Crowchild near McMahon and I do believe there's more Bombers fans here than Stamps. Crazy how many jerseys on th patio anyhow.... #GameDayWeAllPlay

Smart TV has the app

Riders lose 2 more players on O to injury along with Tristan Jackson tonight...

That rain is brutal. Makes it tough to really judge this game.

And yet, every year, there's a guy at McMahon for the Bombers/Stamps game in a Vann jersey. I see him basically every year...just amazing.

and Bayer....BAYER!!!

Huge Rudd fan + big Marvel tie-in implications with Ant Man = Extremely excited for this one...

I'm not sure I really "get" Amy Schumer. It seems like all the hype is that she's a chick who swears and says gross things.....yay. Been done for a long time before her. Hopefully there's more to it than that, in this flick. Personally, I'm more excited to see Hader get a starring role and Vanessa Bayer to get any kind of role...both fantastic comic actors.

http://www.sportsnet.ca/football/cfl/stampeders-bombers-vie-for-west-supremacy/ JUSTIN DUNK JULY 17, 2015, 3:47 PM Each week on the Canadian Football League schedule there is a matchup that stands out above the rest—a three-down showdown game, if you will. So we’ll take a look at the main storylines heading into the CFL’s marque matchup and individuals, groups, coaches, schemes or anything else that could affect the outcome. Four teams across the CFL entered Week 4 at 2-1, two in each division. And both teams in the West with that record square off in Calgary on Saturday night. The winner will stand alone atop the West Division. The Stampeders have dominated the Bombers at McMahon Stadium since 2002, claiming 11 of the last 12 meetings on home turf. Calgary tries to keep that trend going while Winnipeg focuses on starting a winning streak in Cowtown. There are a number of men that could be difference-makers in Week 4’s showcase game and it’s time to find out who they could be. Stamps lose more horses up front Calgary lost starting left tackle Edwin Harrison for the season and right tackle Dan Federkeil for a while if not the rest of the campaign in Week 3. It appears Garry Williams, a first-year CFLer, will get the chance to replace Harrison—he played in 41 games and made 21 starts for the Carolina Panthers from 2009 to 2014. And it looks like Spencer Wilson should kick out from guard to tackle on the right side with Brad Erdos sliding into the right guard spot. Erdos has never started a CFL game. It’s a reworked first-unit offensive line for Calgary that, if you count the off-season departures of Stanley Bryant and Brett Jones, has lost four starting-calibre big men since winning the 2014 Grey Cup. The Stamps’ player-personnel department, led by John Hufnagel and John Murphy, always seem to find capable players to fill in the holes and produce. But you have to wonder if a group that’s given up a league-high-tying nine sacks and consistently failed to open decent holes for Jon Cornish to begin the year can withstand losing so many key pieces. Winnipeg will provide the first test. Mano a mano Speaking of offensive linemen, two-time CFL All-Star Stanley Bryant faces the team he spent the first five seasons of his CFL career with for the first time on Saturday. Big No. 66 signed a free-agent deal with Winnipeg after winning the Grey Cup with Calgary last November. Bryant will line up across from old teammate Charleston Hughes for the first time in live game action. Calgary’s two-time CFL All-Star pass rusher, nicknamed “Stamp Machine,” will be looking to leave his mark on Drew Willy. The CFL veterans should know each other’s strengths and weaknesses very well, so it should be a must-watch matchup on each Bombers offensive snap. Speedy Stoudermire returns Troy Stoudermire looks set to make his 2015 season debut after recovering from a broken right hand that he suffered back in training camp. Winnipeg’s dynamic return man, who averaged more yards per punt return than Brandon Banks in 2014 (12.5 to 10.3), should provide a special teams boost for the Bombers. Stoudermire played in only seven games last season, but still racked up 1,192 return yards to finish third league-wide. He should be able to give Drew Willy and co. favourable field position and help Winnipeg’s offence get into the end zone—something they failed to do in their Week 3 win over Montreal. Stoudermire might even get some game reps on offence as he ran routes with the first team during practice this week, working in at the Z wideout receiver spot. Leaky Blue Bombers secondary Bo Levi Mitchell and his receivers are likely revved up from watching film of the Bombers defence. Winnipeg has given up a league-worst 332.3 passing yards per game. Alouettes slotback S.J. Green set a career-high against the Bombers with 180 yards receiving on just six catches a week ago, abusing man-to-man coverage. So look for Stampeders slot receiver Eric Rogers, coming off a six-catch, 114-yard performance, to put up major numbers.

Just in case anyone's wondering, it's been cold and rainy in southern Alberta this week, but supposed to be Sunny +25 by game time tomorrow. Should be decent conditions for anyone attending....

I don't disagree. But I expecred as much and went into it with an open mind and found it suitably entertaining I will be seeing Trainwreck tonight. Curious to know how this is. It's about as close to meeting in the middle as the old lady and I can get. Apatow movie for me, with Hader and Vanessa Bayer starring, and a chick flick for her....

We won in Calgary (by any means necessary...), we won in Saskatchewan........... #AnythingIsPossible #WhateverItTakes

I sat through that snow-mageddon last November 1..........after that game......I believe anything is possible.
