" Hey did you know that Sankey and Dean are both on pace for over 100 tackles and that hasn't happened since Bighill and Aluminium " - Over / Under 5 times that Suitor mentions it in the game tonight?

Yes! I find Tim's food to be of lower quality then even your cheapest frozen dinners.

Maybe I misheard, they definitely did bring up his other job and retiring from it and thanking him for his service. I was under the impression that he had retired recently. It is also possible that he returned as a temp as many officers do this both in WPS/RCMP to double dip and get an extra nest egg going.

On the broadcast they said he also just retired from his regular day job. Maybe he's going on vacation?

I also found the announcers throughout the year have kept talking great about the Calgary secondary for being big... I think they have one of the worst secondaries in the league and are terrible at tackling. Hopefully in the play offs when we play them again , we look for more Schoen throughout the game.

An absolute scum bag... he won't be treated well in prison that is for sure. (assuming he is guilty that is)

Dunigan said it was a b.s. call , the replays on tv really cemented that it was a crap call.

Ok Mr Dramatic pants. I always love when Matt calls the game and have said so on this site because he has great enthusiasm and isn't afraid to voice his opinion. Yes we are all fully aware that at times he struggles to say names or get what he is thinking out of his head. Last night he sounded half tanked because he would go on tangents that went nowhere and it didn't help that Nielsen tries to be a comedian. News Flash ... Chris Walby used to get absolutely blitzed on the air/tv back in the CBC days. It's not out of the realm of possibility that he had a few rums last night. Instead of being someone looking at anything to complain about, maybe think that it is possible that he had a few bevy's and was just feeling good?

Any chance McCrae replaces Bailey once Ellingson is back?

Same as everyone else... HH - Matt Dunigan I think may have been partially drunk tonight lol

Yeesh why are we caring about our kicker when tomorrow we will be putting up nothing but TD's against that weak Calgary secondary?

I'd much rather have BLM lobbing 50/50 balls... Maier is more elusive and did give us issues last year.

This is 100% correct... in year one Strev was running a normal offense and had a really quick release and a great mid-range to deep ball that was accurate. Year 2 is when the stupid gimmick plays came out thanks to LaPo.

Wow I didn't think his value was that low? So I'm out of the loop have the Jets filled out the AHL roster and signed the yearly plethora of 4th line players?

Tim Hortons should try going back to making fresh donuts and fresh food.

Morrow was the better back of the two, that has been one of the few bright spots they have had.

I am pretty sure no CFL player has made bonus money on the side from local businesses.

Matt Dunigan seems to be a big fan of the long haired RB Oulette from the Argos lol. The guy didnt' seem that great IMO.

Any chance Reilly comes out of retirement for the play off run? Maybe Strev comes back to the CFL if he gets cut? I don't think this is the end of the Lions but it definitely is a major blow. Next weeks game against Saskatchewan may answer a lot of the questions on O'Connor/Pipkin.

I wouldn't say BC has the best o-line, however they are not as bad as Noeller is making them out to be. I just thought O'Connor looked very stiff dropping back so against the best d-line in the league (us) he might have some issues.

Reading Riderfans... my favorite comment in regards to Fajardo was this one:

I just watched both games back to back... I still can't fathom why Caleb Evans has started the last two games? Arbuckle has shown that he can run a normal offense successfully and you keep trotting out a QB who can only run and has shown zero progress on his subpar passing from last season. Unbelievable. Also it was amazing watching the Ottawa defense come out and quit in the 2nd half. The panel including Milt were saying "FIRE THE COACH" , I can't see LaPo lasting any longer. He's done and maybe he'll find work as a scout or something someday. Who is going to hire him as an OC or coach again? My prediction... Jason Maas HC of the RedBlacks in 2023. Litre the RB from the elks reminds me of Josh Ranek, guy is gritty and grinds for extra yards. For the 2nd game I never thought I'd see the day where Glenn Suitor gave up on Fajardo. I can't see how that fan base will tolerate any more bad starts from the guy. The knee brace excuse isn't cutting it, the dude can't throw for ****. It's laughable at how bad he is, Fine isn't anything great at all but at least he can drop back and physically throw a 50/50 ball to the receiver. Marino trying to headshot Lucky was dirty... good on the panel for calling him out on that weak interview that he did earlier this week. Marino is going to get run out of this league this year. Absolutely sucks that Rourke is hurt, that looked bad. The guy was going to be the MOP and was becoming a superstar that this league needs. Hopefully the injury isn't long term, O Connor looked stone-foot and I can't imagine him doing well against an aggressive blitz.

Didn't Bomber fans raise money to pay for a Tom Canada fine way back when?

If somehow the Riders win... could you imagine the posts that TBURGESS will create about our 2nd half being an obscenely difficult challenge.

As long as he passes the physical I don't see why they wouldn't.
