Okay let me get this straight. We shouldn't believe that Grigsby is a sub-par RB based on our own observations, but you're willing to accept that the Bombers cut him solely to save a couple bucks? Based on...nothing at all? Wow indeed.

If anyone here actually called him one of the worst backs in the league it's hyperbole. He had speed, he could catch, eventually he remembered how to block, too. Grigsby just wasn't good enough to do what we expect him to: break tackles. I remember in game one when he took a huge hit that should have put him down for a loss, but instead he bounced and spun off the tackler and ran it upfield for a few extra yards. When that happened I forgot all about Cotton's pre-season showing. And that's pretty much the last time he impressed me.

I bet that 'Great Grigsby / best athlete in the CFL' video went straight to his head. Don't believe your own press, they say.

Honestly the biggest underperformance of the season. I predicted Smith was going to do some good things this season. Yep, who knew Crompton would show better than Smith.

We should trade him to Toronto for an American DL we'll never see.

I skimmed the tweets and didn't see much worth discussing, maybe they've been deleted. Closest to negativity I found was something like 'Trying real hard to be a pro right now' I also wanted to see someone other than Grigsby in the backfield but Cotton hardly lit it up like I hoped he would...

Woo Cotton! Been waiting all season to see him get a legit shot at the starting gig.

So, we're not signing any players, but when we do, they are not wowful enough. I'm curious, how the hell would we know until we sign them? Only sign perennial all-stars, duh. Wake up, Mr Dee!

Anyone know who the head ref will be?

Agreed, 4 is the best version. I was seriously dissappointed by 5, I've got it tied with Revolution for PS3 as my least favorite version. Yep, both 5 and Revolution were 'Civ - lite'. Too easy!

Makes me glad to see all the Civ love in this thread. I have Civ 4 (all expansions) and Civ 5... Civ 4 is the best, or at least most in-depth incarnation if you ask me. Civ 5 is pretty much click continue til you win, not really all that much fun. If I could add up all the hours I spent playing Civ 1 when I was a kid... it would be embarrassing. On the plus side, I was the only grade 4 student who knew who Hammurabi was. That made me super cool and the envy of my peers

good to hear. Their drummer is outstanding. Did either of you see Mastadon and Opeth a couple years back? I missed it... still kicking myself... if I had to choose only one metal band to listen to the rest of my life, it would be Opeth... and it's not even close. I've seen Opeth a few times, it may have been at the Garrick I saw them last for the Watershed release. Which was... forever ago, now that I think about it.... MARRY ME

Boo this man. BOOOOOO

I was feeling pretty shitty about myself when I went 1-3 in the Pick 'Ems. Then I felt a shame I can't describe when my wife beat my ass this week in the TSN Fantasy scores. I take solace knowing that she beat the rest of you as well Congrats, BomberBug, on placing #1 in the MBB pool this week and 99th overall country wide. Now go make me a sandwich.

I was pretty sure I was going 0-4 until that last TD from Dressler.

To be fair to Walters and the Canadian depth, he did make the move for Neufeld and drafted OL with our top pick. It's not as though he ignored the Canadian content on the o-line, but perhaps more Canadian competition would have been a good idea.

That was the refrain we've repeated since Wylie was hired. "Now we get to see if it's coaching or personnel that's the problem" Wylie isn't a miracle worker no matter what his history might lead someone to believe. However, I think he gets credit for moving Morely to C, thereby addressing a need AND getting the most out of an aging vet that many didn't expect much from. Overall, we still have lots of room to improve... especially in the ground game.

After the Jets left I became an Ottawa fan. In my defense, I was young and stupid, and the black jerseys spoke to my budding teenage angst. At least I had one 'good' season of fandom when the Sens and Bombers both went to the Cup in '07. Sadly, neither team could make it happen in the end. My personal championship drought continues...

Seems only right. He's had his slumps no doubt, but this year especially he has proven his worth and then some.

Brutal. We had them right where we wanted them.,.
