  1. End zone prices were frozen and one section prices went down significantly. One section froze... Everything else changed... Sooooo.... Like I said, no price freeze as I implied every ticket (or figured I did as we.were discussing tickets in general)
  2. So 4 for 10 and 22 yards is what exactly? What is "kptkrunch's sole stat line to try and insult Willy?" Alex.
  3. Sure.. It's a bomber discussion board and people have opinions.. My opinion is there is a lot of whining going on and a lot of ire when realistically if people didn't expect prices to go up when attendance dipped then they were delusional.. Also, prices are going to rise regardless of what happens simply due to inflation.. I don't think a price freeze is ever going to happen, do you?
  4. Wah? Wah waaaaah waaaaaaaah! Rabblerabblerabble! Is all ive seen in the majority of this thread..
  5. Oh way better then Willy.. Heck, hes the next Reilly dontcha knoe
  6. Getting stronger & bigger makes it easier to absorb some of the hellacious hits Drew took this year. It should help preventing soft tissue injuries better. Of course it won't help when whacking a thumb off a helmet or tearing a knee ligament. If he comes in about 20 lbs stronger we'll see a different player I think for the better. but again, what does that have to do with being tough? Exactly.. Willy is plenty tough.. Getting bigger or more muscles isnt going to add to that... you're tough or you're not.. Ive seen muscle bound meatheads who were the biggest pansies and ive seen scrawny beanpoles who have pain tollerences beyond belief.. Adding muscle might make him morw sturdy or resillient but thats bout it...
  7. Yea morleys snaps seemed like they got less and less speedy and were almost half strength for some reason.. Never had a bad snap that I could remember..
  8. Coach campbell wont be fired... Anyone suggesting it could happen is smoking some good stuff..
  9. Its not the lions fault grassroots football is so huge in their province or that they have such a larger population base..
  10. I believe they automatically become FAs once the season ends... maybe the team made the decision to release them immediately instead of doing so after the season "officially" ends... This just seems peculiar because of the timing... I think that's what gets people worked up... not necessarily the loss of Kyle Norris... you would think there would be some mandate that would prevent these kinds of things from happening... I mean Ottawa's season is done but they still have a game to play... why can't someone pluck from their PR right now (rhetorical question)?? They could... And ottawa would have to let them go, activate them for the game or make a trade... Also, that player has to agree to leave the team as well..
  11. Oh noes! Alexander AND Norris in one day? We so screwed! Best of luck to Donovan in his post football career. Shame he didnt get to play for his home town team for at least one season...
  12. Why anyone is worked up about montreal stealing Norris off our PR is mind boggling... its also funny that someone suggests that we ought to be doing it... How da hell do you know we havent been and got turned down by players? I imagine Norris figures a shot at playoff money is better then early dismissal so him saying no was doubtful... But hypothetically speaking, if we asked peach to join the bombers he could have said no,.calgary could have activated him, etc etc.. Just because this one instance worked out for popp doesnt mean its a regular occurance OR that we havent tried..
  13. Very nice to hear. I wasn't sure if he was playing DL or OL this year. Chris Greaves 2.0 I like to see he's excelling in his limited time as a guard.. Can't remember if Greaves played a season in university as an o-liner or not... Regardless, getting those extra snaps means he's that much ahead of the curve when he lands here full time..
  14. They count as territorial exemption, only the Bombers can first sign them. If they sign with the Bombers and then cut eventually, they will count as free agents. And this is because they are not university players but local players in a junior league?
  15. So you've discussed with O'Shea why Sears wasn't playing and it was because he doesn't like the guy huh? Cool, didn't know you guys were tight like that.. Smh. The weirdly rationalized speculation in this board continues to astound me every day..
  16. Even factoring in his long snapping and what I would assume to be a large role as a leader next season?It would be a shame to lose a talented guy like him over 15-20k
  17. Kurt Goodrich and Braiden Watson.. Because they play for the rifles, we get dibs on them before draft or... I confused.
  18. *cough* Enoch Muamba *cough* *cough* Matt Bucknor *cough* Pretty non-traditional thinking got these guys pretty far already... Maybe the old way of doing things is wrong in today's CFL.. just like how an undersized LB core used to be more effective then a big one due to small scatbacks and more receiver sets... Now, we see more bruising backs and less scatbacks and bigger blockers so undersized LBs are not cutting it... Can't force tradition to work in the cfl.. The game changes almost on a season to season basis it seems..
  19. You dont think a fire chief would catch on the radio that kind of info or hear the special treatment code and not catch the gossip? dont be dense.. I realize kane isnt a saint.. It is still slander and illegal to insult, imply wrongdoing and suggest that he is guilty of something... Frankly, dont understand why you have such a hardon for him,.didnt autograph your poster or steal your girlfriend?
  20. And he's had time to watch the film now... Hes known all along but you don't admit it to the media.. thats like cutting your arm and putting it in a piranha tank.. Thats why the obligatory "gotta watch the film" or "we played hard..." Etc etc..
  21. Im pretty sure we get 3rd if arblows lose..
  22. This is dejardin we are talking about... so nothing would shock me..
  23. ???? Say what? If I'm not mistaken, in those 53 minutes, the Bombers were in a position to score but failed on three different occasions (2 missed field goals and a missed convert). Yes, one convert but only one FG. Hajrullahu kicked 4 of 5 FGs and unofficially, I believe, set a new Bomber and CFL rookie percentage record. Will wait for the official word on the actual percentages from the CFL news centre. Congratulations mr. rookie kicker. Awesome season from lirim. Hope he hit the required percentages..
  24. Faaaaaaar more people have came and stayed then came, got butthurt then left.. No need to verbally martyr yourself (again) on the "be nice to others" topic... Again. Overall, I think I'm pretty respectful here to people. However, if someone comes after me I won't shy away as you know. I get into it sure but I'm a lot better than I used to be on other sites I was on in the past. I try not to be combative here like I was elsewhere. Not a martyr SPuDs. Just giving facts. if you were a regular on 13thman back a decade ago you know 2/3 of the mods there were power hungry dickheads led by a bully named Section W from Montreal. It deserved to crash. You always reference that board but what we have built here is nothing like that.. It won't become a boys club mentality and it won't become a power mad ran dictatorship.. Frankly, for the most part we self regulate better then any forums I've been a part of..
  25. Slandering players on a public forum is pretty low but to go beyond that and say you have "proof" from responding people (which is still heresy and not proof at all..) is beyond douchey... I'll go even farther and say I know a fire chief and a paramedic supervisor who are my very close friends.AND huge Jets fans and neither one of them has mentioned such a juicy tidbit of information to me during our hang outs or at games... So take that for what it's worth..
