More evidence of current govt.'s suppression of information and data. Why is NRCan's fuel price report suspended during election? http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-election-2015-fuel-prices-neil-macdonald-1.3240778

He won a grey cup with a team Buono built. Once he had a few years as the head coach things started to fall apart, granted there were some injuries etc. But I don't think Benevidez will be a head coach again any time soon. In fairness to Benevidez, he had a declining Wally lording over him and making all of the personnel decisions. He's a smart young guy who will benefit from previous experience in his next gig and do well imo.

That is an amazing stat. right there.

Hope Bruce McNall's name doesn't pop up in the middle of this.

Did you miss it bro? He was released a few days ago by the bombers. Wow, I guess I have tuned out... thought he looked good in the limited playing time he had. Bizarre. Hate to break it to you but Littlejohn has been sent back to Sherwood Forest as well.

Somebody better run down to Earl's and see if Kyle is still waiting for him to show.

I write the offenders name down in my little black book, wait two years then go for their jugular when they least suspect vengeance.

Only reasoning I can think of is they're preparing to defend against the "John Cornish Show" and may choose run stopping ability and positional play over pass-rush capability. Then Nate Collins should be playing. I agree with that. It would be nice to see Cole and Collins play together.

i said the same thing.. Launched himself with his head down, deliberate attempt to spear with helmet.. The fact he launched directly into JFG's helmet is just further intent to injure. That play happens every week in almost every game. DB's using their helmets as weapons trying to intimidate receivers and RB's. The officials rarely call a penalty unless the victim is a QB. Yea, whatever happened to form tackling. And it's not just DB's, it happens at every position. Coaching my 11 year old son and his teammates chest plate tackling with faces/chest up, ready position, buzz the feet, rips and wraps sends mixed messages when he sees what happens at this level as the up and coming CFL fan that he is. Don't know if this article has been posted before but it discusses how football can learn from rugby when it comes to advanced tackling techniques. http://www.wsj.com/articles/what-the-nfl-can-learn-from-rugby-1442335267

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/24/sports/baseball/yogi-berra-dies-at-90-yankees-baseball-catcher.html?_r=0 Some of Yogi's famous quotes. On baseball: “It ain’t over till it’s over.” “It’s déjà vu all over again.” “If the people don’t want to come out to the ballpark, nobody’s going to stop them.” “Baseball is 90 per cent mental. The other half is physical.” “You give 100 per cent in the first half of the game, and if that isn’t enough in the second half you give what’s left.” “Pair up in threes.” “Bill Dickey is learning me his experience.” “He hits from both sides of the plate. He’s amphibious.” “I always thought that record would stand until it was broken.” “I can see how he (Sandy Koufax) won 25 games. What I don’t understand is how he lost five.” “I think Little League is wonderful. It keeps the kids out of the house.” “Little League baseball is a very good thing because it keeps the parents off the streets.” “Nobody goes there anymore. It’s too crowded.” “All pitchers are liars or crybabies.” (On the 1973 Mets) “We were overwhelming underdogs.” “I never blame myself when I’m not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn’t my fault that I’m not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?” “So I’m ugly. I never saw anyone hit with his face.” “In baseball, you don’t know nothing.” “I’m a lucky guy and I’m happy to be with the Yankees. And I want to thank everyone for making this day necessary.” “I wish everybody had the drive he (Joe DiMaggio) had. He never did anything wrong on the field. I’d never seen him dive for a ball, everything was a chest-high catch, and he never walked off the field.” “Slump? I ain’t in no slump. I just ain’t hitting.” “If you don't catch the ball, you catch the bus home.” “It’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future.” “A home opener is always exciting, no matter if it’s home or on the road.” “It ain’t the heat, it’s the humility.” “It gets late early out here.” On life: “You can observe a lot by watching.” “We’re lost but we’re making great time!” “The future ain’t what it used to be.” “If you don’t know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.” “Take it with a grain of salt.” “You should always go to other people’s funerals, otherwise, they won’t come to yours.” “When you come to a fork in the road, take it.” “I’m not going to buy my kids an encyclopedia. Let them walk to school like I did.” “We made too many wrong mistakes.” “A nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore.” “I wish I had an answer to that, because I’m tired of answering that question.” “We have a good time together, even when we’re not together.” “If you don’t set goals, you can’t regret not reaching them.” On golf: “Ninety per cent of short putts don’t go in.” “Eighty per cent of the balls that don’t reach the hole don’t go in.” “I think they just got through marinating the greens.” On travel gear: “Why buy good luggage, you only use it when you travel.” “The towels were so thick there I could hardly close my suitcase.” On naps: “I usually take a two-hour nap from one to four.” On “fan” mail: “Never answer an anonymous letter.” On his own words: “I never said most of the things I said.”

The reality is that the injury that took Willy out of the lineup for multiple games was going to happen sooner or later. So the idea of Willy staying healthy and keeping the Bombers competitive for an entire year is just a fantasy.

I think Austin is making a big mistake by not trading for Glenn as quickly as possible. With the team strength of the Cats, Glenn gives them a passable opportunity to advance to the Grey Cup if they work him in now rather than later. It may take a couple of more losses before Austin sees that reality with his current QB's. Glenn can't carry the team but if he can put enough points up on on the board as he has with Sask. the Ti-Cat D can certainly hold opponents down long enough to win games. Why would Sask. deal Glenn? I doubt it would go very far to fixing their issues and it would be a step back on offence (though Smith was progressing fairly well). Get something while they can and the more desperate the situation the more they can ask for Glenn. Without a permanent GM or Coach, Sask. is obviously going into a rebuilding mode and I wouldn't expect that a 37 y.o. QB would be a part of those plans next year, so it's unlikely they will get anything for him if they wait till seasons end.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 43m43 minutes ago Mike O'Shea feels the #Bombers are a better team than their 4-8 record indicates, but that talk is cheap ? they need to win. I say, there is no proof.

Doesn't look like he's that fast, lucky the endzone arrived when it did or some of those D backs may have tracked him down.

Not really, you need to review the film. Their best game was the first game against Sask. since then they've been mediocre to awful.

The turf they use now with the rubber pellets is much, much better than the Tartan or Astro Turf that was used up until maybe a decade ago when this new technology came out. In the days of natural grass field vs artificial turf there was more forgiveness with natural turf. On natural grass,when a player cut his cleats didn't just stop because the traction was so good with artificial turf, it may have slipped slightly from momentum on natural grassthus allowing less force to be applied to knee & ankle joints than today when tackled so there was more forgiveness on a players joints. So,back in the day the injuries weren't as frequent. Proof of that is the fact teams played 16 regular game seasons with a month of training camp & four pre season games with a 32 man roster & 4 man taxi squad. teams would have injuries but not to the extent it destroyed the roster although depth was always an issue. Just as likely improvement in foot gear could be contributing to the rise in injuries, players plant their foot and there is not enough give.

Mike Willie only got half a game to show his stuff before returning to the PR, how much time will this guy get? It would be more beneficial at this point to have Darvin Adams and Stoudermire sit out the next game so that the receiving crew gets the message that poor performance is punishable.

Must feel great to make a generous pledge with taxpayers money, pre-election.

I would expect Ottawa will start to bring in some new/cheap receivers next season and begin to replace some of the overpriced talent they employ at that position. Sinopoli has been great but I don't think they've gotten their moneys worth out of Price or Williams.

Pretty sure Rod was kidding....but I agree with you about College football, nothing more than exploitation of the players to the benefit of the school. Rakes in multi-millions of dollars for the schools and most of the athletes don't even graduate with legitimate degrees. A small percentage can turn that into a professional football career but most go back to their home-town and get a job paying $10/hr. Just another slice of the American Dream.

Yes. Cant you? Fooled by the hair dye? Betcha that redhead was one hot mama back in '57.

They will bump Shell back to the bench and move Leggett back to safety. I suspect this week though Wild will be in the IR. What happens when Randle comes back? I think Hurl has become a tradeable asset, try and get a player to help the O for him and use Sherman, Briggs and Waggoner as the backup or rotational LB's.
