That was a wonderful, compassionate gesture by Hufnagel and the Stamps organization. Kudos to them.

But Johnson had a very poor game and was victimized repeatedly.

Flanders showed pretty good hands yesterday as well. A nice problem to have.

There has to be a sort of seduction about being a second-half team. It would be tempting for players to not give their best at the start of the game on the assumption that they can always make it up in the second half. When up against a very good team ie: the Stamps, that can be fatal, and it was.

Another senseless, tragic death ending a young life leaving family and friends stunned.

And Calgary's TDs had nothing to do with the win? Adams' brain cramp likely cost us the game, and may well cost him his starter status.

Inconspicuous.

No argument from me on these choices, but honourable mention to Feoli-Gudino.

We came THAT close even with really bad punt/kick coverage and no deep threat. No reason to hang heads over this game.

The Bombers did great and much better than any sober fan dared hope. Nichols was floating the ball way more than he should have in the first half and the defense didn't bother coming out of the locker room until well into the game. Moreover, that was the worst our punt coverage has been since day one. Flanders did great and Feoli-Gudino was his usual clutch player. This was way more a win than a loss and I would bet Paredes would blow that FG 4 out of 5 times in the future.

Maybe its not too late to sign the Hansen brothers just for this game.

Plus, he dances well.

They are and will be inconsistent, at least for this season. The type of experience Jennings needs isn't going to be found outside of live-fire games. But they do look to be beatable, especially to a ball-hawking defense like the Bombers. Jennings' inexperience leads him into trying to force the ball.

Can't imagine the euphoria in River City if the Bombers squeak one out. All the planets would have to be perfectly aligned and the footyball gods would all have to be on our side. We're gonna see how Nichols does in crunch time.

Even in the NFL the best linebackers get smeared at times, and Bass will probably suffer the same fate, but if it happens consistently during the game, its gonna be a long game and an ugly one to boot. The Bomber DL have to keep Calgary O-linemen off Bass.

Sounds fishy to me.

We're playing water polo?!?!?

And get him jacked up on whatever the heck he was on during that unbelievable game.

Yup. Big lawsuit in USA and they have had to stop claiming it prevented or shortened colds and/or influenzas.

Willy did look jittery at first but did settle down and make a few nice passes. We ought to get a better idea of how he is going to fare after next game. Lefevour had better check into how sub-letting apartments works here in Canada.

BC may have the best set of receivers in the league and Jennings looks like another Ricky Ray, but if I was building a team, I would still want Reilly over Jennings.

Thought Bass was around 210-215. Thanks for the correction, but it means he has little excuse for being buldozed.

I do not think too many who have not been into the firewater expect the Bombers to win, but the team needs to keep it close, the only way the Bombers can do that is to keep the scores low. I figure if the Stamps rack up more than 25 points, we're boned.

Does this mean that those who have been concerned about most of our offense coming from FG's have a right to brag if the Bombers cannot score TDs and thus lose?

One play is not necessarily the best indicator of how well Bass can compensate for the size/weight differential. Bass is giving away about 50 lbs (22kg) to Messam and that adds up.
