Super Duper Negatron

How? How is he 35?! Jesus I'm old.

Lapo doing colour for Derek on Thursday (Doug Brown isn't available ). Might be a good excuse to mute the TV and put 'OB on.

Good thing we are deep in RB prospects!

Was it Dave that used to have the saying that every rookie == one loss?

Be interesting to see how many targets the young receivers get. Zach has a habit of forcing things to Schoen or Demski and ignoring the new guys altogether. It was kind of weird how Bailey seemed to re-emerge every time Dru played...

You see this in almost every industry. Young employees look at the top of the company, see a bunch of experienced guys that have been there forever and aren't going anywhere and rightly determine there is no ladder for them to climb, so they leave. Even if they love the work and the people.

I called Agudosi a nothing burger last year and everyone laughed at me.

The cracks that began showing last year, and even a bit the year before, are becoming chasms. Last year was the almost more frustrating for me, because everybody could see this year coming and we did nothing to prepare for it. Of course if we pull out of this, I knew we could do it all along!

The only, and I mean only, thing I like about the Jets better than the Bombers is I don't have to stew an entire week between games.

I would be surprised if we aren't buried in the power rankings this week. We looked the worst out of any team, and it wasn't close. Not to say it will last, but it really shows how "not ready" we were to play.

Every game this week has made me feel even worse about the Bombers.

That crowd is tiny.

We look by far the worst so far. Yay?

I think there is logic to that but a blanket ban is easier to enforce.

Now the only chip left is the one on O'Shea's shoulder!

It didn't.

I sometimes wish Lawler would come into a season and say his goal is to win the Grey Cup instead of getting 2000 yards or being the best of all time.

Was wondering if Legghio was the one that voted to keep them for that very reason.

Buck. This is the reason I was hoping he got the head coaching job last year.

re: Mitchell - guy with dropsies in preseason fumbles ball in opener. News at 11.

Fajardo seemed to do just fine.

He said it looked closer on the iPad on the look he had but admitted later when he saw another angle that it was clean.

I don't think you are in the minority at all. That would be the best case scenario. I think most of us worry though that if ZC can't pull out of it, the staff will be too stubborn or too late to recognize it.

Season opener, at home against the team that broke your hearts in the Grey Cup and the coach admits they weren't prepared? Alarm bells...

Side effect of rotating through 950 players all camp before cutting literally anyone? It started coming.off in the 2nd half of last year. There was a long stretch of football where we were all complaining about some of these very signs.
