so, once you average out the scores, the Bombers are a middling team. Fits.

My guess would be that his lack of footspeed would be an even greater liability outside.

Don't bad-mouth plugs- they have been known to give pleasure to some anatomical parts. Hmm...come to think of it, that is a good metaphor for Carter and Rider fans.

Faith kept. Faithful rewarded. Joy reigns once again.

I'm not sure there is enough alcohol in Ontario for Reinbold to become head coach. Maybe Austin's track record as HC will save him for this season and the same might go for Tillman. Gotta feel bad for the faithful TiCats fans who are among the best in the league do not deserve this mess.

Carter will put a stick in his own spokes without any encouragement from us. We've seen such before and will doubtless see it again.

Will do. My kvetching knows no limits.

Upgrades look good, but can you do something about the freezing when I try to post in the chat room? ++++ annoying!

Edmonton has darned good receivers but Reilly is the key.To think that Wally was on the verge of cutting him at one point.

If there was any play that typified intent to injure, that was it. The SOB strutted away from the hit like he just saved the game.

Yup. This play is going to be parsed into infinity.

If it's not repeatable, would that not, by definition, make it a fluke?

No matter how much kvetching, any fan who shows up and pays their money has the right to vent. God knows, the team has played poorly enough on occasion to warrant the complaints. When fans do not care enough to complain, the team is in deep trouble.

I hope that Nichols can take off a couple of times per game without putting himself unnecessarily at risk so as to add another element of uncertainty to the opposing defence.

Edge to Edmonton due to Reilly vs Lulay.

When I watched that, I thought that would be the play that caved the Bomber defence in.

As bizarre as parts of this game were there were some promising takeaways: Andrew Harris is finally being used to his potential and is responding well, Lankford and Adams really stepped up and gave pretty good imitations of legitimate CFL receivers, Carmichael wasn't publicly embarrassed, Nichols got better as the game went on, the O-line did its usual sterling job, and the D-line made life miserable for Durant. Our linebackers still suck, though, and this has to get fixed. As good as Knox was last game, he was equally lost last night. A game for the ages, though.

Lankford has had a hard time finding steady work for good reasons. He has very good straight line speed- among the best in the league, but as stated above, he is careless with the ball and he has trouble reading his blocking, which makes him indecisive. We need better.

Kuale might have been the most wrongest player ever to have been signed by the Bombers.

This game looks like a toss-up. Bomber passing game is mediocre at best, but Alouette defensive backfield is suspect. Montreal's front seven is good, but our Oline ought to be up to the task. Alouette passing game is not great but our D-backs have been weak, so a toss-up. Maybe special teams will decide the game.

Your quarrel is with Bauming. I cannot fully disagree with him, and last year at this time was some evidence that O'Shea is slow to learn.

Maybe he would become head of player personnel?

Are you saying its a department of redundancy department?

And, if at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

There are exceptions as you have noted, but it is far more common for players to fawn over the departed coach. And BTW, Kelly was "a players' coach".
