do or die

We specifically targeted Dressler as a FA....and considering his savvy, production, leadership etc.......he is worth every single cent.

1. Sell it out anyways..... 2. Make mincemeat out of Bovine Levi and the rest of those swine.

1. If this game is not sold out.....something is very wrong here. 2. High time that playing at home..... actually becomes a home field advantage, as in wins. You know, like real contenders.

Then make an official complaint

So Trump has now publicly "written off" the Chinese, in terms of influencing North Korea.....after endless bragging about how they were going to do his work for him....less that a month ago. At least the Trump family did get their patents and licenses, anyways..... What a statesman....

Wish to register an official complaint...... about all the complaining about the complainer..... and the complaining in response to the original complaint. ...and now for something completely different.....glug, glug, glug....

Actually if you factor in Lapo and Hall....we have a certain amount of "conservative approach" across the board, in both starts of games and playing with leads.......

Well, we are all still little kids at heart. Who doesn't like a circus?

Lucky you.....

Just gave that link to RiderFans.....so they could stop speculating.....

Spiteful and vindictive.... Good job.

Freud drank a lot of gin, in his lifetime

Key game against Hamilton (who looked terrible in their opener) a bad loss against them at home, will bring out even more heretics ......

Will be kinda weird looking into the stands in Regina....and seeing everyone in their tear-away jerseys.

The real deal is what Hurl does, moving forward....

Well, if we let BLM saunter out of the pocket like that......we are in for a long evening on D.

"Loss a mere footnote" Wish I had thought of that. Would of cut down on gin consumption, for all those years

....time for some more Jones projects...

Could not resist.....as the memories kept flooding back....and the gin kept flooding in. Dishonorable mention: Mike Kelly Serious anger and maturity issues ******** whatever potential this guy ever or may of had. The Fateful Five.....from bad to worse 5. Joe Zaleski As already pointed out above, he had the worst talent level of this group. That said, one cannot overlook the outstandingly bad records he compiled. 4. Jeff Reinebold Great personality, but way over his head in the deep end, without water wings. I give a certain amount of blame to the Bomber BOD, who hired this guy as a marketing ploy even though Dr. Jeff had a serious lack of credentials, to actually do the job. Style over substance. Optics over wins... 3. Jim Daley Nice guy. Useless Head Coach. Couldn't make adjustments to save his life. Spent pre-game interviews musing abut how awesome the opposing team was.....and spent post-game interviews making excuses about why we couldn't do anything about anything at all. Players (to say nothing about the fans) openly commented about the lack of structure and schemes, on multiple occasions. 2. Darryl Rogers Not a nice guy. Useless Head Coach. Couldn't make adjustments to save his life. No clue about a CFL roster, Canadian ratio, or just about anything else related to the Canadian Football League.....and just didn't seem to care. Drove the Detroit Lions into the ground, before accomplishing the same, thing here. Still managed to maintain a stridently arrogant "Mr. NFL" persona, towards media and fans. An International loser. 1. Tim Burke Peter Principle, over his head, out of his depth......call it what you will - Burke's tenure was an utter and abject disaster on multiple levels. From his in-game blunders, to his constant excusemeistering, to throwing players under the bus, to his disheartening, uninspiring and sad-sac persona, and to finally asserting, after the fact.... that he "didn't want the job, in the first place"!!! Biggest mistake was actually letting him finish out his last season. Burke was a simply a lame duck from the get-go.

....like to see more consistency and better contain from our ends, as well...

A road victory in a tough environment is a good start - but some things to clean up......think we all know, what those are.... But playing a team that was starting their 2nd game, while the Blue were still in X-game mode.......was a huge disadvantage. (although the not so surprising slow start went on too long) If Nichols had started sharper.....we would of blown them away. We will see if the glitches have been worked out - and they had better be..... against a much better team (Stamps) Riders have some good players.....but that roster overall...looks pretty patchwork and depth is a question......along with coaching.

Beat Calgary? Need closer to a 60 minute game, more Harris and more killer instinct......

Wasn't crazy about the way our starting ends played in the x-season, either.

True to rumor…that new stadium does look pretty sweet… Riders take 2 penalties early… Bombers look pretty conservative…and pretty tight… Nichols throwing a lot of very short…and very poor balls… JFG has pass bounce off him for INT… Glenn tosses perfect TD throw to Holly over R. Carmichael…10-0 Riders look like they are playing with 13 men out there… Nichols sacked to end a pretty useless 1st quarter for the Blue… …as in 0 first downs…and 10 yds. on offense… Heath picks off a long Glenn overthrow, into double coverage… O’Shea wins 2nd challenge on IC… ……but Nichols misses wide open Dressler in the end zone… Bombers down 10-3…and losing battle for field position… Glenn hits Grant with short TD pass…now 17-3 Riders Bomber D stabilizing…… Bomber O still struggling… Bomber DT’s doing some good work…… Nichols just gets down to basics…puts bulls-eye on Adams… .. 3 straight catches…with nice TD catch and run… 30 sec left…Glenn throws perfect pass…to Sam Hurl… Nichols misses Denmark in end zone…Medlock with FG Bombers lucky to be down only 17-13 at the half… …despite doing nothing for over 20 minutes… Dressler pops through a seam with no Riders in sight… …suits Nichols…as he completes 87 yd. pass and run play… Riders bumble away the ensuing kickoff….Bombers recover… Dressler finds no Rider lined up across from him in red zone… …so simply waltzes into end zone to receive another wide open TD pass…. Boom, boom….25 seconds…..2 TD’s….27-17 Bombers… Memo to Rider Fans…..Dressler not too old, small or slow…… Good Rider kick return and a penalty enables Riders to kick FG… Washington takes advantage of yet another Riders secondary bust… …to haul in 35 yd. TD pass from Nichols…who really looks on the beam, now… Glenn completes couple of passes and gets Blue D penalty to set up FG… Hurl playing his best game in a Bomber uniform… Medlock makes it 37-23…time to cruise to victory…… …hold da phone…Glenn gets off a drive…..and hits Demski with TD pass… Carmichael not exactly a Roc today… Nichols sacked…..momentum turning yet again… Nice punting from Medlock tonight… All Jake Thomas does….is make plays… Not sold on our kick returner…just yet… Some nice work by Knox and Miller on special teams… Bombers get ball back …Nichols sacked again… Crucial turnover: Grant catches and fumbles ball… …but magically converted into incompletion by CFL review… Naturally Glenn moves ball…throws 4th TD pass to Roosevelt… Not impressed with our DE’s tonight… Two Bomber rooks in secondary tested today… Alexander holding up well…but can’t smell what Roc is cooking… Solid game from Chris Randle… Blue get the ball back but Nichols sacked AGAIN….punt… Rider can’t move it into FG range…..overtime it is… 2nd series…Crapinga right on target…with left goalpost … Sense of impending doom…now hanging over the proceedings… …all that is left is for Mr. Medlock to line up… …and proceed to hit his 5th FG…for a 43-40 Bomber WIN. Nice… to overcome slow start, building and the hype… …to win opener on the road… Not so nice…to barely beat a pretty poor Rider team… Riders could really use 13 men in secondary… Bombers could really use some way… not to blow leads… I could really use some way to cut back a bit… on the gin…

Such incompetence literaly drives me to drink......
