Mass will be around in 2020 if for no other reason than he looks sooo good compared to Claybrooks and Chamblin.

I got it bass-ackwards. The Bombers played poorly against the TiCats and followed that up with a dreadful game against the Argos. The scenario was correct but the sequence was wrong. The game this Saturday is still critical.

You are correct. Old-timers' disease is a helluva thing.

I wish I could be more optimistic about the Banjo Bowl, but I am not. After the Bombers with a full complement of players soiled the sheets in Toronto, they followed that up with another bad game in Steeltown. There has been speculation about how well the Bombers would do if the defence and special teams did not play their usual heroic game and relied on an anemic offence to win, and we saw that in the LDC. Streveler needs to show that he can run at least a respectable offence with a couple of dozen crisp passes and several in a row or all of the enthusiasm that he brought in with him will evaporate in his teammates' eyes. Streveler's college history seems to indicate that he can throw the ball well, but so far we have not seen much of that.

Why can't it be both?

A couple of years ago, I took my dog to the off-leash beach area at Winnipeg Beach and played fetch with her by throwing her ball into the water. A couple of days later, she got very sick and nearly died. The vet said that it was probably because she ingested either algae or ecoli. So, we are not doing that again, and it sucks because she really really loved the game.

Department of redundancy department.

The wheels of the gods grind exceeding slow....

The last drive by the Stamps in the Monday game was nothing short of impressive. Mitchell looked as sharp as he ever did and looked to have shaken off any rust from his layoff. The Stamps look like they have to be the favourites coming out of the west and that is bad news for the Bombers.

After that blatant hit on Rempel and the disgusting, infuriating non-call, I will be very disappointed if there isn't a tacit bounty on Fajardo this Saturday.

Maybe Eli?

Whoever is at fault, the combination of Streveler and LaPolice has not gelled at all. We just do not know who is at fault, but another loss this Saturday will be a disaster. It is looking more and more like the coaching is the issue.

No question that Fajardo was better than Streveler but that was a pretty low bar.

I was at a family function and had to watch the game on PVR- it really gives a different perspective when the commercials are edited out and the game just flows. It appears to make the patterns in the game clearer and takes away the one-off plays that make you grind your teeth. Thus: Streveler did nothing to show that he is or will be a CFL starter. Bighill blew hot and cold all over the place but cold at critical times. Why in God's name was Hardrick allowed to remain out there? He was awful. Augustine looked decent when the O-line allowed him to take more than two steps. Lawler was good. Adams was invisible. Our receivers are deathly allergic to downfield blocking after one of the rare receptions by the Bombers. The Riders were ready for the Bombers. The fourth quarter collapse by the Bomber defence that allowed the game-winning FG was nauseatingly reminiscent of the end of the Argo game. Ugh. Shoulda won this game comfortably. The score flattered the Big Blue. The only way they are going to redeem themselves is by curb-stomping the Riders next weekend, and I fear the worst.

The CFL needs an "unforced errors" category. In other words, bonehead turnovers.

Or the Regina tap water.

Its gonna make the game......interesting....moreso than most LDC games in recent memory. Lotsa drama!

Ooooh oooh oooh .....pick us! pick us!

Another highly questionable move by the head coach and/or GM- why did it take so long after the last game? Little time for the new guy to settle in and the talent just isn't there.

Marken Michele and DeAndre Thompkins would fit our needs nicely. Singleton would be great as well, but then, what to do with Grandmont?

And ignore that Nigerian prince as well as erectile dysfunction meds.

The sad part about Harris is that this will taint his accomplishments, which have been staggering. But all it takes is one incident. As someone once said, if you build a hundred bridges, you will be known as a bride builder. But following those accomplishments, if you hump one sheep, you will go down in history as the sheep humper.

Go away. You contribute nothing of value here and despite asking the mods to delete your account, you refuse to take the honourable and self-directed path and simply stop posting and go back to the large flat rock in the sun where you were doubtless basking.

Aaaand it might not. Matthews is a force when his head is in the game and he is a part of the team.

It doesn't matter a rat's butt what Matthews does elsewhere. He wasn't earning his keep here and may even been a divisive or disruptive influence. Sempre avanti!
