Brandon

My interest in the Bombers continues to dwindle after each year of mediocrity. With my family growing in size and my free time being very little...I've noticed that for myself that I don't even watch/listen to games live anymore and I'm even deleting my PVR'd games before even watching any of it. During the Lapo era Swaggerville was a tonne of fun to watch and despite Pierce being always hurt at least at the beginning they could move the ball. During the Burke year I noticed myself watching lots of the game in fast forward (mainly because watching our O was as exciting as watching paint dry). Knowing that Goltz , Brink and company couldnt' even make a basic pass pretty much guaranteed us that we wouldn't get anywhere. Last year for the first half I watched everything no questions asked... but as the O fell apart in the 2nd half I was doing the old fast forward once we go down and really skipping ahead in the game if we were down by 14 + points since I almost always assumed that we would never come back. This year if we play anyone good (Hamilton , Edmonton , Calgary) I'm going on the chat seeing if we are stinking it up and pretty much deleting the game without watching anything. To me it's almost feels like a complete waste of time to watch the games now since clearly MB won't be here long term, O'Shea may get the axe if we don't win anymore, Brohm and Marve definitely are not the answer... we have zero excitement on the field (no swaggerville, no all time greats playing on the offense, no real elite players...). For me I'm ready to end the season, clean most of the coaching staff out, hire a whack load of new players and start fresh in a new regime and until then I simply just don't have any interest in the gong show. Am I the only one who is trending towards becoming a fair weather fan since the club continues to stagnant and the games are an absolute bore to watch?? I'm a fan of watching the game of football but the product we have put on the field is just ugly, no one wants to watch the local team embarrass themselves week in and week out. Just curious, anyone else noticing their watching habits going down?

Wow I could only wish that Marve could have a ridiculously high completion % and throw over 300 yards. Edmonton definitely is on a whole different level then us.

Walker isn't that bad, he's better then Grigsby. I definitely wouldn't want him on our team though.

So why is mike irritated?

Popp's ego will be in full after tonight.... yeesh.

At that point simply cancel your internet.

The guy is done and has loads of baggage.. The Jets wouldn't even consider the guy.

Trade Picard for Allen and 1st pick. Taman would do it

And netflixing one HD movie is 5 gigs so I don't follow?

Is it to cliche to say that our season hinges on Marve being at least an average CFL qb?

Winnipeg has way to many entertainment options for the casual fan to drop that much coin to sit outside and watch two teams they don't care about to play football. If we were playing like the Ti Cats then they definitely would of sold much more tix. We have pretty much zero chance of going to the cup , the Jets are way more popular and people would way rather watch them play without freezing there asses off. Wade will have to drop the ticket prices in half to sell out.

The logic I would go with would be Marve not being able to deal with the crowd. They have a better offence and we have seen time where our o sucks big time. I wouldn't be shocked if we lose both. However... If our o line plays decent the Rider secondary is awful and I can see us chewing them apart. Also stop Messam and make Smith throw the ball beyond 15 yards. His deep balls are atrocious.

Neidhart?

For a good laugh YouTube Jim Cornettes rants about Kevin Dunn.

If the Blue sweeps the Riders I wonder if Taman then gets axed?

I guess the question is whether Collaros can play in the cold. They don't see to have a running attack so if he is fair weather then that may be a factor.

Fourth string starting and playing way above expectations... I hope this move bites them in their ass. Maybe if Schoenart hates Cato they will trade him to us for Brohm lol.

I really wasn't that impressed with Smith... outside of the one bomb to Demski he had only about 100 yards passing and could of been picked off easily 2 - 3 more times (end zone bomb, deep in his own end where 2 stamps collided , and later in the game when he floated one that was up for grabs). I think when we play them pretty much the key is to stop Messam and they'll be in big trouble. That defense also is still awful... that half time TD had at least 2 riders just watching the ball go into the Stamps receivers hands... they have an awful secondary.

Smith also looked a raw rookie and could of had 3 more picks

I don't think it's a fumble

Nah, Fitzgerald sucked. I was joking from the earlier unamba praising

Wow stamps self destructing big time. This should be a blow out.

Blah blah blah blue made a mistake cutting Fitzgerald bla bla.

Refs are definitely leaning towards green tonight.

Just because he gets one sack does not make it a mistake.
