  1. Man mountain Butcher looked good, any possibility that guy can play O-line as well?
  2. Have to disagree with your appraisal of Flanders, I think he beats out Anderson, more meat on his bones and better inside runner. Also Castillo may be cut but he has a good chance of being picked up by another team. I think he's missed 2 FG's since he's been a Bomber, can't ask for more.
  3. Pre-season but still felt really good, reminded my of the joy of watching the WBB during the Cal Murphy years.
  4. I'm with you, I made the mistake of taking a "chatty Cathy" to a game once who couldn't bare silence for 10 seconds, I got so annoyed with her inane blather I told her to shut her pie-hole until we got back to the car. Funny,...I didn't see her much after that.
  5. Migs counts for at least 6 deactivated accounts.
  6. I almost wonder if Wetenhall Jr. isn't taking more of an active role in running the team into the ground. Papa was pretty hands off.
  7. An interesting note from Rod's Blog, I wouldn't dare submit anyone to the whole thing. http://www.riderfans.com/forum/showthread.php?134584-2016-Training-Camp/page56 3 – What are the big stories which have emerged through training camp? Well the biggest one is likely the fact around a dozen players have been switched over to the other side of the ball for the first time in their careers. That includes veteran long-snapper and defensive end Levi Steinhauer who’s been moved to fullback. The move may be permanent, as the Moose Jaw product has switched his jersey number from 51 to 13. Bodes well. And of course this... That, friends, is when Canada’s Team will truly begin coming together for this monumental season. RP
  8. OMG! OMG! Edit: Geeze, you scared me for a minute there. I figured Wade snuck up behind you and shoveled your face through the monitor before you could finish your message.
  9. If you'd care to share that inside information, I'll clear the path of any RR spies lurking in the shadows. Sooooooieee!!!!!!!!!!
  10. If you listen to the BB Talk Podcast below the brothers Hodge discuss five Bomber jersey numbers that are currently out of circulation but not officially retired. Bob Cameron’s #6; Kenny Ploen #11; Chris Walby’ #63; Milt Stegall #85; Jeff Nicklin #28; and Tommy Lumsden #75. Nicklin was killed in World War II, while Lumsden passed away in 1955 during a routine surgical procedure at the age of twenty-five. http://3downnation.com/2016/06/06/blue-bomber-talk-podcast-episode-21-ft-darrin-bauming/
  11. Seems to me that Popp is being very indecisive these days, which is not good from a management perspective. Henoc backs me on this one.
  12. Don't get your hopes up too high, O'Shea responded to Bob's Achilles heal question with a soft denial and his standard, "I don't look at it that way" answer.....so he may or may not recognize the O-lines performance as a problem but he sure isn't going to acknowledge that it was.
  13. I don't think he did, he was available during F.A. but as far as I know nobody picked him up.
  14. I have to hand it to Trump, despite the message he is conveying he is a great public speaker who can ramble on effortlessly for 45 minutes almost unscripted. Can't recall the last politician that could do that and retain a crowds attention.
  15. Disappointing but time to cut Knox and bring him back when he's healthy, Doesn't look good to have a roster spot given to a guy who spent the entire TC in the tub.
  16. I can't decide if Nichols is an untalented over-achiever or a talented under-achiever, it's a wish-wash either way.
  17. Different end of the spectrum, just happy friends divorces don't require attendance!
  18. Which comes to the crux of the current situation, if one party has a controlling agreement in place they may entertain dialogue but that doesn't mean they are going to flinch. As an aside, city planners do not make decisions for the betterment of a city or it's populace, they do as they are told.
  19. They've been debating this issue for at least the last 25 years and have many studies on traffic flow which show that it is a pretty big deal. Portage and Main is a natural bottleneck with a huge amount of traffic flowing through that intersection everyday. As it is now traffic flows quite well considering the volume of traffic involved but adding pedestrians to the mix would back things up severely and piss off far more people than the freedom to cross could ever please. The difference between Wpg. and other cities is that the grid is disjointed not rectangular, and the confluence of rivers cuts everything into pie shapes. Back in the 80's I worked a couple of summers in the City Planning Dept. and they had blueprints from the 50's that showed plans to split the traffic coming off of the Disraeli Overpass with an expressway cutting behind the Exchange District along the river bank, rejoining Main St. somewhere before the Norwood Bridge. Obviously since that time many major obstacles have been built in it's path so that option will never see the light of day.
  20. Although Ali was a great boxer in his early career, what he really did to revolutionize sports was bring personality and self-promotion into a world where most athletes were treated as silent drones. Boxing capitalized on the concept and it has bled off into other combat sports, as most fans really do want to know the real person better to confirm their love for their heroes. Sadly most of the major league sports have stuck to programming their athletes in drone speak. Nothing more boring then watching a pro athlete jibber-jabber for 2:30 seconds and say nothing.
  21. What was the injury that kept Richardson out for most of last season? I thought it was lower body as well.
  22. Now there is a brain I would love to see tested for CTE.
  23. I fixed yer mistake.
  24. Yeh, that's him, same guy that was shot in the head last summer. http://www.endzonescore.com/former-indianapolis-colts-wr-lavon-brazil-shot-in-head-remains-alive/32214
