do or die

Postgame on the field, Zac was walking pretty well.....

This will be a very physical game......which gives me some confidence....

Had the tape running, while doing the O+S. Listening to Suitor oil Rourke's jock, non-stop.

Good crowd....field looks a bit greasy, but not much wind. Zac with a perfect long sideline pass to Demski for 40 Couple of Olivera runs for a first down..... Zac has Schoen open on crossing pattern.....who..... ...eludes a couple of Lions, and in for the 19 yard TD!! Leggs misses the convert. Good start, nice drive 6-0 Bombers..... Lions 2 and out.....punt is blocked and recovered by Bombers! Reviewed....and Blue called for contacting the kicker? Rourke almost picked off by Darby. Kid Canada looking uncomfortable.. Grant muffs bouncing punt, and loses sight of it.... a scramble.... .....with the Lions recovering ball.... on the Blue 2 yard line Pipken runs it in, for the Lions TD. Gift. BC 7-6 Startling turn of events..... Grant returns punt to BC 50. Zac to Bailey for 15 Collaros throws ball right to a Lions DB, which is dropped.. Leggs hits 43 yd field goal. 9-7 Bombers. Bombers score on their first 2 drives. Rourke overthrows on 2nd down....struggling a bit.... Zac throws another one to a Lion, who can't hold on Collaros getting away with a couple, here.... Screen to Butler who is stripped by Jefferson...Blue recovers Olivera couple of runs for a FD, then bursts up the middle for 13 Zac has Demski briefly open in end zone.....but.... .....puts too much air under it.....and its picked off. Jefferson knocks down pass on 2nd down.... Zac sacked on 2nd down for big loss Lawrence knocks down 2nd pass. Both teams having some issues on O, right now..... Grant takes punt.... moves up the sidelines....then cuts back... ....and has nothing but green (or white) ahead. TD!! Redemption for Grant......16-7 lead for the Bombers... Rourke hoists it up to Rhymes for 40, past Parker... Rourke throws down the middle....and is picked off by Rose! Zac pressured...dumps to Olivera... breaks a couple of tackles for FD. Rourke completes passes for 3 first downs. Need more pressure on him. Rourke finally hit and ball falls incomplete. Grant concedes single off the punt. 16-8 Bombers Olivera runs for 9.....Prukop converts FD. Zac to Wolitarsky for 9 Zac to Oliveria...down to the BC 34. Zac to Wolitarsky FD...... ....with 4 seconds left. Leggs with the Field Goal. 19-8 at the half. Rourke to a wide open Hatcher for 27 yards....2 Butler runs .... fall short. Sean White with 42 Yd FG.....now 19-11 for the Blue. Olveria with runs of 7, 8, 5, 3, and 5 yards. Demski with another 8 Zac hitch pass to Bailey for another FD. Prukop rolls out to the one.... ....then sneaks in for the TD!! Smash mouth football..... and burning down the clock. Leggs misses a second x-point...... ...Williams takes it in the end zone and breaks down the sideline... ....all the way for a safety..... 3 point swing.... What is with these damn extra points? 25-13 Bombers. BC receives KO. Miller drops the hammer on Williams.....big hit. Rourke to Hatcher on 2nd down......belted by 3 Bombers. Bomber get holding penalty to kill drive. BC offside. Rourke to Hatcher for 9. Pipkin in to convert. But Bighill fills the hole...and Pipkin falls short!! Turnover. Zac to Demski...diving catch for first down. Olivera busts up... ...the middle to the BC 9. Olivera sweeps in for the TD! Or not. Demski called for holding. Pass to Demski knocked away... Leggs comes in to hit 17 yard FG. 28-13 Bombers. Lions go 2 and out. Olivera 2nd effort for 6 Prukop keeps it.... ...on play action and runs it for 18. Zac pressured and throws away pass Mike Miller puts the kibosh on another Lion kick returner.... Rourke to Hatcher, who gets away with the push off for 30 yards Rourke finds Hatcher again between 2 Bombers for another 30... Rourke is finally sacked. 6:56 left 3rd and 16 Rourke puts up a prayer... .....with 3 Bombers covering. Lawrence picks it off!!! Collaros scrambles, pulled down from behind....and gets up limping! Rourke to Burnham down to Bomber 21. Rourke is hit.... .....but gets off 17 yard TD pass to Holland. 28-20 Bombers Zac on the field limping badly.....Dru Brown comes in. Demski takes reverse handoff up the middle for huge FD. Leggs punt returned by Hatcher to BC 14. Bomber blitz and Darby sacks Rourke. Lions have some sort of meeting...... ....while clock still running...wasting crucial time. Rourke runs for 12 Clock down to 6 seconds. BC tries a rugby miracle. No dice Bombers are Western Conference Champs for 3rd year in a row!!! The Blue punch their ticket for a third Grey Cup game in a row!!! Do or die punches his glass for yet more gin....

So, a run off election in Georgia. That gives us a week, to find out about Walker's other 9 kids.....

To this day.....a certain segment of voters, have never gotten over that Obama win.

Given the historical trend of US midterms, the economy, runaway inflation, Biden's low approval ratings. This should of been a total slam dunk for the Republicans. What happened? Too many unqualified and wing nut candidates endorsed by Trump. Sane Republicans said nothing, and simply watched this go down, like the moral cowards they are........and it will cost them yet again.

Yea, lets have more on Rourke....

The idea that a "wrong list" even existed, let alone subbing it for the proper one.................is patently absurd. Minor league stuff......

Next week: CFL presents a new feature............. Travels with Rourke's Foot

It's a shame, that the Coach/GM are left in the lame duck position, for next year. They should be extended immediately.......

Stamps O should eat up the Lions D, as well.........

Thomas was playing football - not tiddlywinks....

He also cut a guy, right after a game.......and publicly threatened to cut another - that player ended up making the All-Stars.....

Early on, MOS was saddled with, a lousy roster, then Etch and Marcel B. But a number of folks (including yours truly) felt that the (losing) culture was starting to turn around. Our D then had bad back to back collapses in playoff games (BC Edm.) At that point, the guy that every one want to can, was Hall. MOS didn't bite. And here we are now............

Craig Dickenson on Rider post game show...... “If you try your best there is no shame in losing" Another problem right there.....

1. O-line Pushed the Lions D around all nite 2. Db's No cushions here, and hard hits 3. Olivera Starting to create his own identity out there HM: Rouke's foot

15-3 boyos....

Parker has really come on, the last three weeks........

Not much cushion given by Bomber DBs....

MOS must of had a chat with the kick cover team, after that last game........

Downtown Brown in, now....

If they get another chance......they should throw up a jump ball to Jefferson

Lions can't stop Prukop, either....

Love the formations/fakes
