Wowowowowowowowoweeeeeeeeeee! Jeg er spændt!

Try the reverse angle... The reason the "Tanev-hate" is strong is because he just doesn't provide much when he's out there. One hell of a skater, prob one of our fastest guys. Other than that...... ??? There's a reason he went undrafted with that skating ability. If the practice depth chart of this week is an indicator of things to come, most think we're hooped just because Tanev will do very little to make that 3rd line better. Maurice has said he wants 40 goals from the 3rd line. If Tanev plays there regularly, you'd need Lowry to hit 25+ to get to 40. #NotGunnaHappen The best summation I've heard about our FW group is that we've got plenty of top 6 FWs and a bunch of 4th line options, but very little if any "true" 3rd line depth.

Well, Bovine certainly can't win the award. If it's called Most Outstanding, you award it to the Most Outstanding Player. Bo has not been that. No where close, really. To my knowledge, league doesn't award an MVP award for regular season. Reilly's up there. Nichols and Harris could both be finalists....when's the last time we could say that about 2 Bombers? 2001?!

Confirmed.

Another legend (appears to be) gone. RIP.

A-FRAMES! a-frames, man. ...I have friends who used to work field crew, they'd never let that slide.

TJ Thorpe is no Jim Thorpe. I don't get what all the fuss is about.

D seems pretty cut & dry to me, tbh. Top 6 is set, barring injuries. Big Ben is a prototypical 7th D. He's old enough now we're not hurting his development if he only plays 20 games or less. Should we encounter injuries, which we will, I'd be in favour of a Poolman callup midseason. Until then maybe he can help the Moose win some games for once.

Well, cheers friend! Glad I'm not the only one who prefers to dine local! I'm from St.James, born & raised. We need more places like this succeeding in the neighborhood. Next time a friend suggests Smitty's for wing night, imma slap them and say OGC or nothing at all!

Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)

thought he was with SSK... but could be wrong -
So for those that feel PR players are drastically underpaid; how much more would you be willing to spend on tickets to games? We're still a gate-driven league, no? You want higher salaries, fine, but someone's got to pay for it.

No there's legions on social media that proclaim it to be the worst thing in all of pro sports, so you're not alone. Me too. Love belting out a "whooooo haaaaa!" after "that's another Wpg ____________"

And not so much a restaurant, but seeing as how iHop is mentioned above.... There's some decent (&new) food options at Outlet Collection in the Ikea neighborhood. I had a Chachi's sandwich w/ mac&cheese from the food court.....very tasty. http://www.chachis.ca/ http://www.ogcbrewingco.com/

As far as new places in town go, One Great City Brewing near Polo Park is a great, fresh spot. ONLY local brews available - excellent. Food I had was really good; though we went for le burger week.... so I haven't seen a regular menu. Decor and vibe was neat.

somehow I doubt Chipman and Thomson were thinking Argos when designing our sweaters.

Game day thread: Ottawa QuarterBLACKS vs Bomber BYES
Jimmy Pop replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Usually takes some prodding of Darren Cameron on twitter. Sorry, I've been distracted from the game at work :/ -
I just wonder if you get enough offence from C - L - A. I'd rather flip Perreault to the 3rd line & hope that he gives Lowry some tap ins. Connor up to the 2nd line with Little and Ehlers on his off wing.

Good point on the weather. Rainy & windy tonight.... welcome to Fall Football. #ForthEw -
For fans of Seinfeld, Jerry's new Netflix special is more of the same old, same old.... in a good way. Special is 1 hr long; mostly a standup set where he returns to the club in NYC he started out at in the 70s. New material is relevant and on point, gives you the standard chuckles here & there. I'm pretty nostalgic & picked up on his older classics too... "you can tell how bad someone's relationship is when they touch their face....higher up they go, worse it is..." Still waiting on Comedians in Cars getting to Netflix.... all I can find is "sometime late 2017".... :/

Agreed! Will be tough to top that movie soundtrack though!

Canuck Play 2017 is what you're referring to; out on XBox and Steam. You're right in that it's far from polished. I still think if the League & PA as well as say EA stepped up, the game would be better. Reading about the guys who made the game, I've got respect for 'em. Made a game just for the sheer love of the CFL; not expecting a big money maker.

a ) glad the offseason renos are nice, as they should be for the $$ they've invested. b ) it better be more open up there!!; extra few hundred people will be milling about up there since we can't go outside.
