  1. We are discussing old-timey wrestlers. Oh! I always liked Rick Rude.
  2. Wtf is going on in here?
  3. Ya, I don't think this storyline is over.
  4. @Wpg_BlueBombers: #Bombers release six: LB Sammy Brown DB Patrick Hall WR Lavasier Tuinei OL Quinn Everett WR Ezra Millington DB Dan West
  5. Everyone looks good when you put them in the ring with JOOOOOOOOOOOOOHN CENA!!!!!
  6. This regime seems to like waiting til the last minute to announce stuff like player cuts, coaching decisions, etc. I don't see the benefit and selfishly I wish they would announce things quicker but to say they are indecisive because of it seems like a bit of a stretch.
  7. I'm still not sure about BC. They have all the ingredients for a disastrous year: Head coach who has been away from the CFL for decades Chronically injured QB No Canadian depth on the OL But they also still have Wally Buono and a great defence. So we'll see. All I know is someone has to finish last in the West and it's still not clear who that's going to be.
  8. That was about -20 to -25 with the windchill. Maybe got a little colder as the game went on.
  9. Imagine that, you're not a fan of an evaluation that basically tears apart your entire bias towards Marve. And this number you came up with? What is the point of that? It honestly means nothing. It means that Marve is effective at moving the offense. No. It doesn't. In your mind, maybe. In reality, not even close to what it means. It is a means of measuring effectiveness, absolutely. The more yardage a QB can muster, the better he stands a chance at winning the game. Look at the sample size. Your stats are meaningless and totally non-predictive. I'm all for breaking down stats and looking at them, I think it's fun, but trying to draw the broad conclusions that you are is just foolish. You're pointing at a comparison of 12 plays per QB and trying to tell everyone it means something. It doesn't.
  10. First off, this is not an evaluation, merely a statistical breakdown of the offensive drives. I would advise against putting too much faith in any of these numbers. There are a lot of factors to consider, such as supporting cast, opposing defence, and playcalling. I definitely wouldn't evaluate the effectiveness of a QB based on my numbers or yours. I just thought it would be interesting to look at. Misleading numbers are misleading, that's all I'm saying. I hope you realize that yours are just as misleading, that's all I'm saying.
  11. Thanks, good contribution, the site would die without you.
  12. It's called the Golf dome. Hello.. Well then good thing they're wearing helmets because I'm usually ripping drives around the time they'd be holding practices.
  13. Yeah but the other guys - Dinwiddie, Brink, Hall, etc. - couldn't even do that much.

  15. Training camp in May could be dicey for some teams. Recall we had snowfall on may long.
  16. Statistical look at the individual drives as led by the 3 backup QBs (Numbers don't include Portis' last "drive", which was essentially killing the clock): Starting point -- Result -- Total drive length Brian Brohm W24 -- Punt from W48 -- 24 yds T32 -- 20 yd FG -- 19 yds W43 -- 44 yd FG -- 30 yds 55 -- 43 yd Missed FG -- 20 yds Average drive - 23.25 yards Average starting point - Winnipeg 50 Robert Marve W46 -- Punt from W46 -- 0 yds T47 -- TD -- 47 yds T37 -- 35 yd Missed FG -- 9 yds W24 -- Punt from W28 -- 4 yds W35 -- Punt from W31 -- 4 yds T53 -- TD -- 53 yds Average drive - 19.5 yards Average starting point - Winnipeg 49 Josh Portis W21 -- Punt from W21 -- 0 yds W42 -- TD -- 68 yds W26 -- Punt from W30 -- 4 yds W15 -- Punt from W21 -- 6 yds Average drive - 19.5 yards Average starting point - Winnipeg 26
  17. I agree, the coaches show has never been more entertaining.
  18. They basically cleared out our import MLB prospects. Bass is still here but I think he's been getting looks at WILL. Pretty much confirms that Hurl is the guy.
  19. Apparently Normand is looking good as well.
  20. If we had kept Bishop after 2009 until 2013 we would have had a lot more wins in that timespan
  21. We're not going to cut Mavre. We can keep all 4 QBs. Most teams keep more than 3 around in some capacity, whether it is on the reserve or injured lists.
  22. I thought it was a pretty funny article.
  23. I really don't think Mavre will be going to the NFL. If anything he will be seeking more playing time elsewhere in the CFL. But let's just wait and see how this season pans out.
