Lirim might be having a problem with the visualization part of his game.

I think the Bombers have a very good chance of beating BC next weekend. BC put a beat down on the very worst D in the entire league last week, which coincidentally is also how the Bombers earned two of their 4 victories this year. This weekend BC will start a rookie QB against a D that has been steadily improving every game to the point that they are now respectable. If Nichols can continue on the trajectory from his last half performance I can see the Bombers actually winning comfortably.

Even if Castillo was bad I would expect him to hit at least 50% of his F.G.'s. Nothing to lose giving him a shot and whatever is ailing Lirim has been ailing him all season but has become terminal lately. Not something that can be turned on and off like a light-switch.

If they can afford to dress both Lirim and Castillo for the next game I think that would be a wise decision.

How could anybody have an opinion about the TPP when no details of the negotiations have been released? Anyway, I think the details of this agreement could be the tipping point of this election that breaks up the logjam.

I honestly no longer care about this issue. why should I? Americans think it's fine. so, let them carry on killing each other. saw an amazing stat yesterday about the number of children killed by guns that their parents can't be bothered to lock up properly. In the USA. two days ago USA bombed a doctors without borders hospital in afghanistan and burned a bunch of people to death. They've been bombing that country since October 2001. No kidding, and people wonder why there are so many refugees fleeing countries that are being bombed. Without ground forces and intelligence, bombing is completely unguided and the victims are of no consequence. I'm ashamed that Canada is participating in this activity.

According to the Washington Post in 2015 there have been 294 mass shootings in 274 days in the US 41 of those being school shoot-ups. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonkblog/wp/2015/10/01/2015-274-days-294-mass-shootings-hundreds-dead/

Hence, the 3 minutes of dead air time. Or Rod Black analyzing the play...whichever you prefer. I'll take the dead air time, thank you. Still hoping that one day soon Duane Forde snaps and we get to listen to him strangling Rod Black live on air.

Maybe it's just my perspective but I noticed last night that TSN was not providing a lot of replays of penalty calls. The PI in the endzone that put the Esks. on the one was not re-shown and a number of the blocking violations that were flagged on Stoudermire's returns were not spot-lighted either. Maybe TSN has decided to play down the poor officiating that is par for the course in the CFL and try to focus more on the positives.

Like I said how come it's okay to rip on Brohm but not Liram? Seriously! Iso...you may be old but you're no idiot. Brohm has done nothing to prove himself in this league. Lirim has shown he can be a CFL calibre kicker. There's the difference and you know it. No difference, huh? Quit making excuses for the guy. He gets paid to kick field goals & he's not doing a very good job. There's certainly a double standard here shown by some fans. Brohm is an import QB, I'm no expert but I've heard of a place where those guys are literally falling out of the trees. Lirim is a talented National, a much rarer commodity and much, much harder to replace.

First year he's just happy to be paid to kick footballs and be a part of a team. Off-season his agent tells him not to re-up as the sky is the limit and he sets his sights on the NFL. With added pressure to be perfect in order to achieve his goals the relaxed demeanor is now gone and the guilt of failing his teammates just adds to the weight. If Walters is smart he re-ups Lirim in the next few weeks and sends him to a sports psychologist in the off-season. We all know he has the physical talent to have a long and successful football career, he just has to learn to relax his sphincter muscles a bit and accept the here and now and not worry about the future.

BC looked like they found their groove tonight with Jennings at QB but of course that was against Sask.

The O definitely looked better in the second half and Nichols was using a lot of play action to avoid the rush. I wonder if Nichols is actually helping MB to revise his playbook as he is the first vet QB Marcel has worked with in a long while and it is in the interest of both to try and keep him alive. The way Nichols was limping around out there I don't think we've seen the last of BB.

Some fella named Palardy did the same for the Argos a couple of weeks ago and he had been stone cold for almost 2 years.

That's the thing, this has been an ongoing problem all season and O'Shea's response is to keep trotting him out there and hoping he will play himself out of his slump like Stoudermire did. Problem is, it hasn't worked and they're running out of games for it to happen. If O'Shea had brought in a punter earlier in the year and let Lirim focus on the place-kicking maybe they wouldn't have lost this game and the previous one.

What pisses me off is Harper will spend millions of tax-payers money fighting this in the courts. It's a non-issue, so stop wasting my frickin' money!!!

My second cousin is Chad Allan, I could probably dig him up for this gig.

If he's no good, he can be cut tomorrow. You're right though, football is a tough business.

Honest to god, Cgy. has golden horseshoes up their ass.

So what's next then? What happens when some judge (unelected) decides that not allowing Muslim men to discipline their wives according to sharia law is "unconstitutional"? Where is the end of the slippery slope? Are you going to defend that man's right to beat the snot out of his wife because his religion allows it and some judge no one voted for ruled that he can? I am just trying to find out where the breaking point for people truly lies. Because if you use the excuse that judges dictate what is right and wrong, then you can't turn around and disagree later when you've fallen all the way down the slope. I also don't get how a nativity scene on government property can be constitutionally removed while deeply offending Christians, but it's unconstitutional to say that you have to abide by laws regarding revealing your face because it offends your Islamic faith. I honestly don't think I will ever understand that. To distinguish between not unveiling at a citizenship ceremony and stoning individuals to death, there is a constitutional provision and an accompanying test. Section 1 of the Charter "guarantees the rights and freedoms set out in it subject to only such reasonable limits prescribed law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society." For a charter violation to be saved by Section 1, the law must be promote a sufficiently important objective. I think preventing the murder of individuals is a sufficiently important objective to justify depriving an individual, who argues he has such a right, of their religious right to stone their wives. OK - but allowing someone to murder someone else is the most radical case. What if it's just a casual daily/weekly beating? No stoning. Just a little beating. Are you good with that? Nope, that's against the law. Wearing a niqab is not.

America has a problem that contributes to several other problems and that's the nature of their politics make their politicians gutless.The gun lobby are a bunch of morons hiding like cowards behind the constitution but they have enough puppets on congress to ensure no real gun control ever gets passed. The sad thing is, these mass shootings happen to the innocent. Just let one mass shooting happen at an NRA meeting. Oh but it would never happen because the tough NRA crowd would shoot back. Sure they would. Uh huh. Seeing people fawning over Obama's outrage is hilarious. Dont tell us you're angry. Again. Do something. What can Obama do though? Like you said, the gun lobby has enough people to ensure nothing happens. Until those people are out, nothing (regardless of who's in the White House) much can be done. One thing the US Govt. could do is to make it illegal to publicize the identify of the shooter by name or any other descriptors, much like what is already done for young offenders or children who have been sexually abused. This guy had the right idea. Douglas County Sheriff John Hanlin said at a news conference he was not going to say the shooter's name because that's what he would have wanted. "I will not name the shooter," he said. "I will not give him the credit he probably sought prior to this horrific and cowardly act." Without the publicity and notoriety of these events how many wannabees are going to seek this level of revenge? In almost every case they find the shooter was a fan of previous mass-murder events and the psychopaths that committed them. If the killers go nameless and are purged from mass media, their immortality goes with them. It may be a small step, but it's a start and I believe it would reduce the motive for a lot of these nutbars.

It's time for Neil Young to come home, even if he's using a walker. Whatever happened to all of the great bands that used to come out of Wpg? Nothing much since the Crash Test Dummies and the fabulous Remy Shand.

Since they don't actually have a coach per se I agree. I think Joe Popp may finally have to pay the price with his job. Pressure from up top probably forced him to fire Higgins but now the camera is pointed right at Joe and he doesn't have anyone left to blame. Jim* Popp Him too!

Hope the Bombers stay well away from the "Old QB Sweepstakes".
