Doesn't January live in Winnipeg year round now? I'm sure I've seen him around town a couple times this past year. -
Personally, I watch enough NFL to know I like the CFL better, and more importantly why. There are some pretty significant differences dontcha know! Aww shucks thanks Atomic, but I grew up in the 90s, so thanks but I've got piles of my own participation ribbons, you keep yours.

You guys have convinced me. NFL OT rules are great! So great I think that some other sports should try to imitate them. Golf could take on a more cut throat approach. You and your opponent are tied on the 18th green, but they get to shoot first and sink the ball before you get a chance to putt? ELIMINATED. Enjoy the walk to the parking lot, loser. NHL shootouts could move to sudden death. If the first team to shoot scores, the other team doesn't need a chance to score back. Buncha participation ribbon wearing pansies! They should have just scored during extra minutes. In chess, putting your opponent into checkmate is so tedious. I think simply putting someone into check should be good enough for the win. Yay for CFL OT rules. You get to see both sides of each team compete for the win, and let the best complete team effort claim the top prize. The Pats seemed destined to win this game, I'm fairly sure their D would have stopped the Falcons anyhow, but it would have made their victory that much more decisive and impressive. On the other hand, who wants to watch more NFL football than necessary? That's probably the best part about sudden death OT and the NFL; it ends sooner.

Easy guys if you say his name 3 times in one post I hear he stabs you through your monitor. -
The comments section on that page is pure distilled cancer.

I've always preferred the game day thread over chat, and since chat was introduced the game day thread has become pretty barren. I'd probably use chat more, but I stream the games I'm not attending and suffer a 30 second day delay, making chat nothing but spoilers. I could live without chat.

The words 'ball handed off to Brock Ralph' were said far too often -

That's true. Crazy to think we were a win away from hosting a playoff game that season. -

Michael Bishop is what happens to teams that jettison their veteran QB with nothing but hopes and prayers to fill in. Mike Kelly had a plan named Stefan LeFors. How'd that work out. -

It's like asking a crip 'what's wrong with being a blood?' -
I wonder if we try to bring back Gurley now. I suspect the Bombers let him drift to FA but I'm a fan and would like to see the Bombers deploy 'twin towers' on offense

I was thinking something similar. Has anyone here played KOTOR? Bastila Shan, a Jedi trained in "Battle Meditation" could heavily influence the outcome of a battle using the force. Not sure if KOTOR is canon or not, but it damn well should be!

Saw this on Reddit and thought this was the most relevant place to share it: The prequels are quite tolerable when you only have to watch 5 seconds at a time.

Getting new Jersey...now who to get??
MOBomberFan replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I once encouraged someone to get one of either Poblah or Muamba on their jersey... stars in the making I told them. -
They could band together as a food critic duo. They could call the column "Sour Grapes and Stinky Cheese" or "Winnipeg's Top 20 Restaurants to be Banned From in 2017"

I can't help but smile. He's so much fun to watch, and nobody predicted he'd get 1100+ receiving yards in 2016. Making at least one catch in every game will do that. -
Things will heat up just prior to FA

I don't get it. So your point is if we have a starter why do we even bother with backups? Why does a backup QB even step on the field? Most of the time it's because the starter is hurt or not performing well. You don't want to see your third stringer on the field. At least not if you like winning football games.

A cursory googling will show that Dominique Davis was bouncing around the NFL in 2014; he joined the CFL in 2015 with Calgary. Not that that's the important part. If he's brought back then that means the coaches think he is doing things right in practice and has the potential to do something good down the road. You don't want your 3rd string QB to be starting often. I remember rushing 3rd stringers Justin Goltz and Robert Marve into action and it didn't go so great.

I've heard a few people say it's time to cut bait on Davis and I don't understand why. He's only been in the league for 2 seasons (joined the league in 2015) and I'm not sure a 3rd string QB is expected to look like a long term starter at that stage in their career. Davis had a pretty good training camp in 2016. I suspect Walters and O'Shea will want to bring him back for one more go around. We'll find out soon enough.
