Blue Bomber Free Agent List
wpgallday1960 replied to sweep the leg's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Agree again. I would re-sign Dressler and JFG and then make a push for Eric Rogers to replace Denmark. In my dreams I would like to see a starting 5 at receiver of : Adams, Dressler, Rogers, Wolitarsky, JFG/Coates (share the spot). I know I'm probably harping a little too much on Wolitarsky, but I honestly think he Jhansi the potential to be our version of Zylstra. -
Edmonton Eski-dolts @ Regina Ridirts: Who Do We Want?
wpgallday1960 replied to USABomberfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Hard to believe that one of the two best teams in the league lost at home to the Esks! BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Never change riderfans. That site can be a source of great amusement. -
Adams gone for rest of regular season
wpgallday1960 replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I read this morning that Chris Givens was taking ( or is it given) some first team reps so maybe we will see him over Lankford or Washington. -
I hope Weston has that positive impact. However I am going to harp on this: Drew Wolitarsky can be our version of Zylstra. It was about this time last year that Zylstra was activated for the first time by the Esks. He had a great end of season run and has become a top notch WR this year. Hopefully we can at least try him out the remainder of this year (split reps with JFG and Coates) to see if can help us get to the GC.
-
Why not Wolitarsky? Bombers need a medium range possession receiver badly. Time to take the training wheels off and see what he can do.

Who has the better team: Calgary or Winnipeg?
wpgallday1960 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree. Until the Bombers can beat Calgary in a meaningful game the Stamps are the better team. Their defence is far and away the best in the CFL. -
Game Day Thread - Revenge & Emotion
wpgallday1960 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Good 20 point win. Hopefully that will keep,the Sask trolls out of here for a while at least. -
Mulumba has never played MLB, ever. He was a 3/4 OLB or a 4/3 DE in his entire career. It would be a disastrous mistake to put him at MLB. I just don't know why this meme exists on MBB. We aren't Chris Jones' Riders.
-
I would say 2 of the plays were as you do described. The TD pass to Stafford was well executed by both players. The deflection to Williams and the missed hold on Watson''s play were more than fortunate for the Eskimos.
-
How are we 6-7 in our last 13 at IGF? I thought we were 4-5 last year and 3-1 this year which equates to 7-6. Not what I want it to be but not a disaster. Edit: I see you said before last night's game. My bad.

That thick mop of hair must have been a direct cause of the injuries. His legs just couldn't support the extra weight. Too bad it didn't turn out but I wish the best in his post football life.
-
Not sure about that. I seem to recall hands to face being called every season I've been watching and I too have watched football for,over 40 years.

Bombers @ Lions: Game Day Thread (07/21/17)
wpgallday1960 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
A 2/1 TD/Int ratio is not horrible. Not great but not horrible either. It's the timing of his picks that are killing the Bombers this year. -
Bombers @ Lions: Game Day Thread (07/21/17)
wpgallday1960 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree. I think we have the personnel to be competitive in the west. Chicken **** coaching with the lead cost us this game. -
Bombers @ Lions: Game Day Thread (07/21/17)
wpgallday1960 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Lol. Ottawa finishes under .500 in a weak East, Bombers finish 11-7 in a tough West and that's what we have to strive for?!?! Credit Ottawa for getting hot when it counts but they are hardly a juggernaut as this season is proving. -
I was looking for comparisons to current WRs in the CFL and I kept coming back to Esk's WR Brandon Zylstra who has become incredibly productive. So I did some research and from a physical standpoint the two are very similar (pro day results): http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=1016742&draftyear=2016&genpos=WR http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=128487&draftyear=2017&genpos=WR Kind of a laugh - their respective team's CFL sites list them as 6.03 and 220 lbs but their pro day stats list them as 6.02 and 219 lbs. Zylstra signed with Esks on May 30, 2016 so he had a whole TC to go through and he wasn't put on the active roster until week 14. Using Zylstra as a model I wouldn't expect Wolitarsky to be on the Bombers active roster until well into the 2nd half of the season, and even then he would have to earn his reps playing ST's. I like JFG but he is someone I feel more comfortable with as a backup, so hopefully Wolitarsky can take a Nat WR spot down the road. He still has to learn the CFL game and earn his stripes but it gives him something to shoot for. One big advantage for Zylstra is QB play; Reilly is better than Nichols. Period.

Who was our worst coach?
wpgallday1960 replied to Blue in the loops's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don't think Kelly was the worst coach but he was a horrible GM. I think he traded away something like 8 draft picks in his short stint here. Also his public battles with the media and his anger management issues just embarrassed the Bombers completely. Did real damage to the Bomber brand, IMO. They had no choice but to dump him. -
How many weeks will he actually need before he sees some real game action?

Randy Ambrosie Named CFL Comissioner
wpgallday1960 replied to Nickthesizz's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Good for Ambrosie. A Winnipegermakes it to Commissioner, should be good for boatloads of conspiracy theories on riderfans. -
Surprising! Good thing we signed a few WRs this offseason. I wish Ryan all the best I his new career.
-
If this place was run like riderfans you'd be banned by now.
-
If NFL interest doesn't materialize I'd like the Bombers to draft Geoff Gray. Could be a starting National at one of the OT spots down the road.
-
With all these marvellous FA acquisitions by the Riders, I'm sure we can expect another 12-6 record prediction from Rod Pederson.
