Just you wait and see. He'll make Streveler look like the2nd coming of Brian Brohm.

Huh? Of course I’ve seen him play but not in blue and gold. #smartass

I for one am giddy about seeing what collaros can do.

What gave it away?

17to85 might need to take a vacation

What if Collaros comes in and throws for 4 TD's and the offence looks like a high powered well oiled machine? What do you do for the WSF?

Maybe it didn't come through but yes that's what I was inferring.

But luckily for O'Shea the Argos look at things differently. They look at your playing resume first and foremost.

I would never condemn a football player for protecting themselves from a potentially career ending dirty hit. Especially with some of the dirty headhunter players in the CFL these days.

"You" is the term used for the group on here who questioned Nichol's toughness and called him injury prone.

His talent didn't get him drafted or for that matter I don't believe he even was even invited to a NFL training camp. I could be wrong there but I couldn't find anything that showed he got anything more than a sniff from any NFL team.

Quite possibly true but all we're interested in is his ability to lead this team and become an effective and successful QB for this team.

Oh I'm sure he can probably tap dance or sing but you need skill to be effective as a QB in the CFL. Maybe in the NCAA you can win some games with 200+ team rushing games but in the CFL you have to throw the ball downfield.

Heart is a great attribute to have but it must also be accompanied by skill and talent.

I thought that one of the things you admired about Streveler and made him so much better than Nichols was that he was "tough" and a warrior. Now you're bitching about O'Shea because he left in his QB. Plus I can't see any scenario where Mike O'Shea would put in a player if the player or training staff said he was too injured to play. You guys know it but aren't willing to admit it. You guys love to spin things to fit you're personal biases or agendas.

Are you referring to Streveler coming in when the balls within the 3 yards of the goal line and pounding it in on the ground?

If it walks and quacks like a duck...

I can't remember the exact cause but the team did have some lean attendance numbers, a horrible TV contract that paid almost nothing to the tams and a lease with the City that was very one sided.

The WBB football club have found themselves in similar financial hardship in the past. I remember my dad telling me that he received a personal call from the team asking for money to get them out of a cash crunch. My dad gave them $1000 and in return he was invited to a dinner at Ray & Jerry's with a few Bomber players. When we were going thru his stuff fter he died I found a letter signed by Earl Lunsford (I believe) thanking him for his support. More recently I remember giving the Bombers $100 and in return I received a "Bomber Hero" certificate. In addition to that when the "Save Our Jets" campaign failed I picked up my refund cheque from the arena and walked across the street and signed it over to the Bombers. Thankfully the current WBB management team now runs the team as a business and it appears the team is on solid financial footing.

STREVELER Incomplete Pass intended for D. ADAMS at M25 Above are our 6 visits to the red zone with two succesful attempts. One on the ground and the other by way of the pass. Streveler's success in the red zone is dependant on Harris and his ability to run the ball. If we get in to a 2nd and long situation our probability of success drops significantly. Streveler is like a golfer who gets the yips on the green. And I know that your first response will be to blame it on Lapo or the receiver not making a play on the ball. And yes it's just one game but I believe that if you go back and look at his other games, it will show a tendency in the red zone. When Nichols was playing we were one of the best teams in red zone production. Now not so much. Many of you think I don't like the guy but thats no true. I hope he becomes our future #1 QB and takes us to the promised land. But he's not ready and I wouldn't be comfortable going into next season with him as our #1. Many of you want to throw Nichols away with the bath water but we still need him for at least 1 more season.

I hate to say it but this game could be ugly and could end up to be our worst loss of the year. I had to work last weekend and with thanksgiving I was just able to watch the Als game. I was completely unimpressed with Streveler's play. Almost every time we got in to the red zone he either thru a pick or an off target pass. He can't play like that against the Stamps. As soon as Streveler gets within the 20 yrd line he seems to get jittery and makes poor decisions. Unless he can run it in the probability of scoring goes way down and I don't think we can expect the defence to intercept BLM as often as they did against Adam's. I like Streveler but he's done nothing to change my mind about his ineffective passing game. So either Streveler has the game of his life or the defence will have to play lights out. Not confident with either of the two. I hope I'm wrong though.

Might as well just turn off the TV right now. If that was a prop bet I wouldn’t touch it.

I think khari stays in Montreal. With a head coaching job and a 3 yr contract he’ll be comfortable enough to uproot his family and move east.

Richie Hall is fine. It was reported today that his absence is due to the death of his brother.

Overreact much? Seriously you might not want to operate heavy equipment today. No risk move.
