do or die

We scored one TD on O. And that.... took two 3rd down gambles on a 50 yd drive.

He has the foot, he has the look, he has the style....... But yes, we will wait until next week.

First this site goes down.....then the designated TSN channel gives me stupid golf, instead of football....forcing me to scramble in the pocket, reeking of gin. That first half induces more and steady consumption.... Call it overcoming adversity......or simply playoff mode.

Picard wasn't pulled. Upper body injury. Ok...but same result....a positive. Picard has been an expensive bust.

Let me put this in a slightly different way..... The OC is absolutely terrible.... staying the course with him this year... has made it much more difficult for this team to win games

One blocked kick One partial blocked kick 5-5 on FG 2-2 on converts Great KO's Some good returns The kind of special teams that we had all envisioned, when MOS came aboard. Picard pulled (finally) and signs of emotion and passion on the sidelines, tonight. Interesting to see if this was a "turn the corner game" for O'Shea, moving forward

BC fumbles KO.....Bombers proceed to, uh... ...kick a FG. J. Adams looses 50/50 ball to Hawkins.... ...who runs 80 yds...to set up short BC TD pass... Bomber run game no-existent... Nichols looking shaky in 1st half again.... 27 yds of O in first quarter..... BC drives 75 yds for another TD..with ease.... Arcenaux doing whatever he wants against Blue secondary... ....especially Demond Washington.... ...who had an totally embarrassing half of football, all round... Jennings looked like a HOF quarterback.... ..completing 15 of first 16 throws.....with all kinds of time Bomber D essentially spent first half in..... Also Ran Mode. 23-9 BC at the half....they have 300 yds passing... Intermission: DOD dials up the gin.. 2nd half: Hall dials up the pressure.... Jennings looks more like rookie quarterback Bombers get punt block from Sherman - TD for Wild. 23-16....Adams gets pick and long return... Castillo hits 4th FG... in 4 attempts.....25-19 BC Bomber O cannot stretch the field.... ...or run up the gut on 2nd and 2 or 3 or 4...... 6 min left: Blue throw 2.7 yd pass on 2nd and 4 Brohm stuffed on 3rd and over a yard sneak. BC gets clinching 60 yd pass play... ...but Bombers saved by the call ( holding) 4 min left...Blue run SECOND fake punt on 3rd and 10 ...and get first down on direct snap to Briggs... Special teams in playoff mode, anyways..... 3rd down gamble from BC 16..... Stoudermire "runs into" two BC defenders... ..freeing up Denmark for TD pass from Nichols Only TD of game from Bomber O...but huge Castillo hits his 2nd convert - tie game 26-26 Nice KO by Castillo puts Lions in a hole..... Bombers get ball back at the 46, with minute and half left.. Big second effort run by Marshall... gets them into range Castillo comes in for 40 yd game winning attempt.... Hits it! But MOS had called the time out!..requiring yet more gin 2nd attempt - the Captain from Castillo is true.... Improbable win, with the rook kicker going 5 for 5. Bombers outscore BC 20-3 in half...for rare comeback.. Shoe on other foot...Lions missed two converts... Turnovers and Special teams get this done... Ugly wins are better than moral victories... Empty bottles are better than full ones....

That's easy - it's at the bottom of a Bombay bottle Yes, but which one?

Too bad.....during down time....had composed the most humorous and insightful post, ever.... will repost...... if I can remember what the hell it was about......

MOS can't do the kicking for anyone.....

Next: participation ribbons....

So, missing 4 FG and convert in a one point loss actually has consequences? Good. One can only dole out so many hugs.......

Bring in a million......until we get it right.

Marve was one thing...a prospect at least with upside. 8 yr. pro Brohm was quite another. Following on the heels of Boltus, it is fair to ask why we cannot acquire/DEVELOP QBs for the last million years..... But, agian, Brohm looked really good in spot duty last year and this past off-season people raved about him AND Marve. So it's only this year that the anti-Brohm stuff has begun. "looked really good"......bit of exaggeration here Brohm looked sort of passable in one start. He followed that up by doing nothing in this years X season, and doing totally nothing this regular season......and seem to look worse with more snaps, instead of better - not what one would expect from an experienced guy....

But doesn't that particular issue rest in Kyle Walters lap rather than O'Sheas? Afterall the only competition in camp was Portis who wasn't as good as anyone and Yantz the token Canadian feel good story. I see more GM failings on this team than head coach failings. Regardless of what we think about Bellefool, can we honestly say this team has enough talent? They signed Chevon Walker for gods sake! That's just bad GMing right there. Has Kyle Walters recruited any receivers we can put on the field and expect a good performance from? Denmark came from Mack, Moore from BC, Adams from Toronto, Kohlert from Mack, JFG seems to me was an O'Shea guy, where are the receivers that Kyle Walters brought to this team? It's been a couple years now surely at least one should have shown up. You can't win in the CFL unless you are able to recruit some talent. Subpar OC does not help. In the main, would agree that MOS is not playing with the strongest deck. That said.... 2/3rds of this team has not reflected the attitude/intensity of MOS the player. Yet. When that happens consistently - Mike has taken the next step forward.

This guy is the RB equivalent of Brock Ralph.....anybody watching the league, last few years already knew this....so in one sense, he lived up to expectations...

Problem is that some folks see yet another season, circling around the drain, while waiting for some of these (seemingly obvious) decisions. Based on body of work, Marcel should simply of left with Etch.... Having one guy (Marve) with 3 ACLs, already...who was viewed by most as a project, and another guy who supposedly was the experienced and ready to play option (Brohm).... as our backups, didn't help matters.... Overall, one could still have doubts about the evaluation process, round here....

Hell, I may have been duped by amount of gin comsumption. I'm wondering if my drinking is sped up in spots....

This guy already had a well documented track record, and simply performed up to that standard....... pretty sad commentary on our ability to recruit import running backs....

McFarland is interesting.....

I am so pumped..............full of gin.

No one will see it coming.......

Have to run off some wins now. French Foreign Legion time.....march or die. In this particular saloon, time to sort out the men, from the sarsaparilla drinkers......

Too bad cups are not awarded on the basis of moral victories......
