But it was stupid on Cox's part as the game was still on the line.

The score is 19-0 and actually flatters the woebegone Riders

Duron Carter was not a factor after Loffler hit him.

If you think it through, if Willy was resigned to accept lower contract, why would he go elsewhere to new system and team and have to start all over again when he could have essentially the same money here along with a known situation?

Which would still place them well above Saskatchewanites in the food chain.

This is definitely a winnable game. Popp may a great GM, but not a good head coach and it looks like we have the horses to beat Montreal. The keys to the game are likely pressure on Glenn and taking Duron Carter away from him. Carter runs his mouth pretty good and if the Bomber d-backs can trash-talk him to distraction by a few jostles and borderline late hits, that ought to do it.

And parking downtown Calgary is scarce and/or expensive, so the C-train is a Godsend to those working there.

I met Cohon and his kids at the Banjo Bowl and spoke to him. He came across as professional, polished and easy to talk to. He did good work and was well paid as the best commissioner we've had in a while.

I'm pretty sure that Willy did not come forward and ask to restructure his contract, but reality has to intrude somewhere. Either he signs the new deal or he rolls the dice that someone else will pick him up for a fat contract, and Willy's resume does not inspire confidence.

Welcome to this fractious group, and may you live long enough to see another Bomber Grey Cup win!

It should also allow the Bombers (and fans) to give Willy more slack and maybe even take some pressure off him,

Depending on his ego strength, having to come off the bench in a do-or-die situation could be the worst thing to happen to him. I used to golf with a guy who was way better than me, but as soon as money was on the game, he folded like a cheap tent. Some people just overthink and screw themselves up.

FYI: According to Farhan Lalji, Burris has played the last couple of games with an owie on the pinkie finger of his throwing hand. That might explain some of his wobbly passes of late.

Gonna be a good game between two evenly matched teams. Harris might be the edge Ottawa needs to get them over the thrashing they took last week.

Foketi was thrown into deep water- his first CFL game with the extra player and all that motion plus being out of his natural position. They may want to give him another chance to get live-fire experience.

Always find that interesting.

Horizontally, yes.

We cannot wait too much longer for one of them to separate himself from the pack. If the Bombers are to make some noise in the playoffs, we need all cylinders firing.

Ah, the Rider situation just keeps getting better and better. (Snort)

We don't need him....they sell Dr. Seuss books everywhere.

Its not easy to find someone in Saskatchewan who can form whole sentences.

The way it looks now is that Nichols has progressed and Willy has regressed. It may also be that Nichols is a better fit for LaPolice's offence.

Apparently Pederson is going to be on 1290 radio H&L tomorrow.

If Willy wants to prolong his career, he should take a pay cut, sign an incentive-loaded new contract and then work like a dog to show to the coaches that he still has what they thought they saw in him. He has to know that there is no long-term future for an overpaid back-up.

Everything costs something.
