Blue Bombers - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread

Replacing who? -
I find the opposite for this city. Everyone is always in a race and speeding all of the time. It's a major pain in the ass when trying to switch lanes either in town or on the highway as I always encounter someone who will speed up and not allow me to lane change because heaven forbid someone goes in front of them. It's 100 times worse when I drive my sports car, all of the farmers come out and try to race and it gets old quick. A whole lot of small weenie big truck driving morons on the road in the Peg. On Regent from Lag until Costco I find the issue more so the infrastructure for traffic leaving the shopping areas being clunky and insufficient. The whole design is wrong and can cause bottlenecks. The genius who designed the road south of Stapon when you are driving towards Walmart/Superstore. I have no idea why they created an "S" shape rather then a straight line and then for them to plant bushes on the boulevard creating blind spots and frequent near crashes from people trying to leave Best Buy or people trying to turn left towards Micheals and not being able to see cars easily. Same issues around Kenaston. When I shop in Fargo it is so much easier to drive in and drive out of all the shopping areas.

The reality is that he wasn't a Navy Seal so therefore he is of no use for us! -
I believe the term the TSN was using around that time was that it was a "Crum-back" 🤮

Helle signing is amazing and will give this franchise a chance to at least put out a winning product. A great signing!

What is wrong with Augustine? They already use Demski , Bailey, Grant , McCrae (when rostered) as a change of pace. -
So he's a phony?

Friday Night Football - Bombers at Leos: GDT
Brandon replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
People need something to ***** about after having a team with a gaudy record since Zach took over. Jeez I remember the days when we struggled to pass for 200 yards and would take multiple back breaking penalties killing any chances for a win. -
Dickie has to be axed after this season right? Same with the O-Coordinator?
-
They had nothing to counter-attack the blitz and the pressure. By the end of the game the Ti-Cats were getting pressure rushing only 3 guys at times! I believe the first few drives Dolegala did have some decent 10 yard passes... but by the 2nd quarter it felt like he only had 5 yard dump offs at the sidelines.
-
I just watched the full game and my goodness the effort and issues on the Rider team is awful at every position. O-line was awful, the whole defense was awful, play calling was awful. That team needs a full rebuild tout suite. You would think they would come out with energy on a big home game with the George Reed intro and the fans really into it. They laid a massive egg. That secondary is the worst ever, it was so bad that Suitor didn't worship Nick Marshall even once during the game. Hamilton had great pressure all night long, they might be able to create waves in the play offs if they limit the penalties and protect Shiltz. Riders are toast, Did Dolegala even attempt a single pass over 10 yards?
-
It was a 50/50 kind of call, that's the only penalty that was missed that I would of really accepted. The headshot that the Lions had on (forget who was our receiver) was far more blatant.

It is in shambles and has been for the last 10 years. After having three family members going through Cancer during that time I can see why some people just pay money to get treated down South. If you get really sick in Manitoba you have to really really push hard to get treated and to keep on top of things. Each family member had incidents where incorrect medications was given to them and mix ups on how much or when chemo was given. It was not a tight ship in which you can just trust them to do what is right. You really have to do your own work to make sure that what they are doing is correct. Part 1 of my rant : A few weeks back I had to take my Mother to urgent care (Concordia) and what a gong show that place is. First of all the security needs to get fired ASAP and replaced with real security. A drunk man was waiting to get treated as he had tried to beat up his Mothers boyfriend and ended up injuring his hand. He was drunk and acting aggressive towards other people in the waiting room. When his Mother came to get him he flipped out and said he was going to kill her and her boyfriend and he didn't care about going to jail. He started aggressively walking towards her and then pushing her. The 5'7 security guard proceeded to walk away when this happened. When it escalated even further and the admin staff were yelling for security... the guy came back and then sheepishly hid behind the admin staff! Thankfully the admin got in the drunk guys face and told him to sit down. But I was in shock that this security guard would cowardly hide behind a 50+ year old lady when their was an actual situation in the lobby. Later on a 2nd security guard came by , this time a 5 foot 3 lady who was the opposite of athletic and when the drunk guy started acting up because nobody in the lobby would give him smokes she at least confronted the guy while the male security guard once again jumped and hid behind the admin staff. Unfortunately she couldn't persuade the drunk guy to knock it off so thankfully some one else in the waiting room got into his face and warned him that he was going to kick his ass if he kept it up. Absolutely unreal on how poor of a job these security people did. Even mall security I've seen can do a better job. Part 2 of my rant: We waited 13 hours in urgent care to get seen by the lone doctor. Talking with the nurses it was a slow night also for them!!! That's absolutely unreal that people have to wait that long to get treated. I'm not expecting miracles in which you come in and come out within minutes of arriving. But 13 hours and that's considered not so bad is absolutely unreal. I saw an old man who looked like Santa who was in the waiting room when we arrived and was still waiting after my Mom was treated. Dude could of been there for 15+ hours! That's unacceptable, this province needs a plethora of doctors and needs them ASAP.

The Holm pushing VA out of bounds was the only penalty that I saw the refs miss on our end. Even Dunigan was calling for penalties for the missed head shots and pass interferences that were not called on BC.

I forgot to also mention Dakota Prukop with some great short yardage gains -
1 - Brady MOP 2 - O-line 3 - Bighill on the big 3rd down stoppage and was hustling a lot tonight. HH - Grant because he can actually get some yardage on returns

I just watched the game on PVR and I'll say: Farhan wasn't bias and actually did a good job calling it down the middle. After 2 terrible fumbles, a crappy int, missed fg, at least 4 missed sacks, the Refs missing easily 5 - 7 calls..... BC still couldn't capitalize? Willie really needs to get a sack and break this snake bitten streak of his. O-line came to play today and did a great job. BC has zero run game and in the first half Hall reminds us how his d works when the d-line can't generate pressure. Ballsy complaining in that post above about the missed off side... I saw at least three times the BC defense jump before the ball snapped. The only other Bomber missed penalty was when VAJ was pushed out of bounds a second late, otherwise BC had multiple infractions that were ignored and that's not even calling the missed holding happening all night long. Our punter sucks, why can't we get a normal punter? Brady should be MOP but won't get it. Betts has a weird overbite that makes him look like Cletus from the Simpsons. Zach wasn't awful he was good for most of the night, VAJ was solid in the first quarter and so mediocre for the rest of the game. Get Stegall off the panel he's awful. Glad we won but need to execute far better and play a much cleaner game. -

Don't need him , Strev will come back -
Maybe the Mayor can visit San Francisco and see what happens when the homeless take over. Scare him into action.

Craig is a good Bond but the material he was given was crappy after Casino Royale. It definitely wasn't his fault that the later Bond movies were a lot of meh. Roger Moore was hilarious, the movies are entertaining and watching those makes me yearn for more Austin Powers movies. Far more memorable (not always in a good way) then the later Brosnan and most of the Craig movies.
-
I watched it in theatre and it was amazing, everyone came out enjoying it. Better action, better side characters, better gadgets, and a better story then the last Bond. The movie hits on every note and is memorable and for good reason why it is well rated and why it pulled in a tonne of money. The problem I found with the Craig Bond movies is that everything felt so generic and boring and sterile. The supporting cast are all forgettable or unlikeable, All charisma is pulled from the Bond character and everything just feels generic and run by the numbers. The pace is slow and the dark brooding troubled drama storyline over takes the fast paced cool undercover agent what Bond should be about. You can tell Craig wasn't interested in the character and everything was so tired and boring. Meanwhile Mission Impossible somehow keeps one upping themselves and somehow keeps things interesting even after all these movies.

Some of the clips online are just embarrassing, I almost want to say that even I can do better then him these days and it wouldn't be a stretch to say so. Same goes with David Lee Roth and his live shows from the last few years, it's just absolutely awful. I'd rather those guys lip sync so that they don't completely make a fool out of themselves. -
If I had to watch either Solace or Moonraker it's not even remotely close that I'm watching Jaws fall in love. At least with the campy stuff it is entertaining for laughs and turning the brain off, with Solace and even the latest Bond I'd rather just watch the Mission Impossible movies since they are significantly better at doing the same thing.

Selling crack to kids and beating women (girlfriends) , probably much more.
