Super Duper Negatron

Banks lets the ball bounce around. Gambles and gets less yards than he would have if he had caught it. Proceeds to celebrate. I hate Banks.

Most nervous I have been for a game in years. Maybe it is the 6 weeks of waiting.

Insert Shakespeare quote about protesting too much...

I had a dream last night. The Bombers played the West Final in Halloween costumes. Zach was dressed as a television. Grant's costume wouldn't allow him to move his feet, so he attempted to log roll every time he received a kick. For some reason Simonize was there, dressed as a tree with no arm holes. He was constantly open, and the passes from Zach (who was surprisingly accurate given the bulk of his costume) would hit him in the trunk and fall to the turf. I was in the stands, constantly shouting "why do they keep throwing to the tree?!". We were losing when I woke up. This game needs to start. Soon.

That Duke Williams "catch" is even worse than I remembered.

From 3DownNation. The fact these idiots are asking a guy like Richie Hall these types of questions is vomit inducing. Blue Bombers’ defensive coordinator Richie Hall is impressed with what Rourke has been able to accomplish in his young CFL career. When asked to compare the phenom against some of the best quarterbacks he’s seen during his long tenure in the CFL including Warren Moon, Dieter Brock, and Doug Flutie, the veteran coach felt it was too early to make any assertions. “I think he’s off to a good start. It’s funny, would you guys have said this a year ago? All you can deal with is what the present is and I think when you start evaluating people’s careers, you evaluate them from the start and how it evolves to the finish, not during the course of it happening. He’s off to a great start, he’s had a great year. He’s phenomenal, but this is his second year,” said Hall. “When you talk about the other guys that you had mentioned, you talked about them over a span of time. Was Warren Moon the same at the end (of his career) as he was at the beginning? No, because he backed up Tom Wilkinson. So, like I said, he’s off to a great start. He’s a good quarterback, seems like a nice kid. He’s tough. He’s had a lot of success, but I think it’s unfair to the guys that you had mentioned and it’s also unfair to him to start comparing him in such a short period of time.”

I couldn't resist.

Just want to point out that the media narrative on this was ridiculous. The final tally, while impressive for BC, was a hair over 30k.

Nathan Rourke is good and the BC Lions are good. I am scared of them and think they can beat us. I hate all the pro BC and Rourke coverage and hope they fail. I don't see why it is so hard to acknowledge all of the above statements can be true.

Shut up Farhan.

Rourke story continues for another week. The coverage is going to be naueseating.

Now they kick a field goal. LOL.

I know folks here are scared of Rourke, and that is why we are downplaying him, but wishing for him to fail doesn't magically make it so. BLM time?

Dickenson having an awful game.

Feels like you are trying to will that reality into existence. 😉

Yeah, stupid call. Classic overthink.

Lol at Peters celebrating an underthrown ball hitting him in the noggin.

Don't see how that PI was any different than the Sayles breakup on the CGY drive.

It gets called when Mike Sellers is destroying the Riders and the refs need to invent ways to make the beating stop.

As much as I would like to see him struggle so the media would shut up about it, I have a feeling Rourke lights it up today. Sometimes these storylines just have a way of coming true.

Evans is starting to lose it.

Was Dom Davis always such a dingus?

That makes more sense.

Florida Georgia Line announced as half time show? Not a country fan, but could be worse. Odd, because I swear they broke up. Probably why they were available.

How are ticket sales for next Sunday? Got my first ever Bomber robo call today encouraging me to buy tickets, which I thought was odd.
