  1. If Jennings plays, the Bombers should win, if Lulay plays, not sure. (if he can make it through the whole game) Not sure beating B.C. led by Jennings, and Montreal, mean that much as far as the defence goes. I suspect that the defence can still be beaten by any of the league's good quarterbacks.
  2. This really is an amazing story. There's the remarkable strength of character and courage shown by all of the people involved, and the level of skill of the people who found the boys, and then devised and are carrying out the plan to get them out. All led by two apparently quiet, non attention seeking, British civilian amateur cave rescue divers, one a retired fireman, one an IT guy, and also I think an Australian MD/cave rescue diver. I understand that It was the two Brits that initially went in, and found the boys and the coach. One 47, and the other 56 years old. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/07/09/meet-seven-british-divers-playing-leading-roles-thai-cave-rescue/ At one point they have to take off their tank, and go through an opening 38 centimetres across. they lead the boys out, one diver ahead of the boy, and one behind, all roped to each other, and to a line fixed to the cave wall. the boys do not wear a tank, the lead diver carries a second tank, which is connected to the boy's full face mask. brilliant, cause the tanks are heavy. and move. It's an almost incredible demonstration of fortitude, and skill. I also appreciate the Thai officials complete lack of grandstanding.... one short press conference a day, by one person. no questions. I learned that there are cave diving rescue societies, which of course these men are leading members of. And that they call diving in a cave where it is partly submerged, and partly not, sump diving. If you're following it, they do not have oxygen in their tanks, they have air.
  3. Playing against Jennings was good for the Bomber D. I don't think Jennings would make the Bombers. Ulrich wrote - Jennings, now 3-15 against the Bombers, Eskimos and Calgary i
  4. I think Nichols is star 1. 2. Bighill .... 3. Harris happy honker Paul LaPolice.

  8. crossing route to cross for td come on do it go argos comeon. why doesn't toronto have franklin carry the ball once instead of handing it off
  9. Heath! Toronto no running game.
  10. argos haven't moved the ball since the first five minutes of the first quarter sure looks like he throw aricky ray type pass..... to 84 threw it to the other team
  11. Maas is behaving fine.... good to see. turned out this game is all defence.
  12. not overturning that, or maybe they will nailed it!
  13. esks receivers are 1/2 in the league
  14. Richie Hall type defence in Toronto. bend dont break, and turnovers.
  15. the fever would have made it.
  16. true. maybe a bit of bend don't break.
  17. cue two or three grey cups for Toronto. They don't deserve it. headphone toss coming soon.
  18. very good seeing s. whyte whiff. I dont understand why M trestman thinks bethel thompson is even with franklin. or if he is why did wpg let him go.
  19. did not expect this in the first five minutes
  20. after all of the speculation about J Franklin, this will be an adventure. esk d not shining to start the game argos did not find and develop Franklin, so if he is good, they get no credit. he did look good. looked a bit like Ricky Ray.
  21. argos dumped on again, no broadcast on their radio station as of 4:25, talking about soccer. they need a new broadcaster.
  22. looks like thunderstorm to me
