Stickem

The only silver lining I see is that the argos will most likely get trounced next week by the schmoes, and we get the first overall pic in 17' ..After that and after that display yesterday AND if we play similarly to that mess.... it doesn't matter where we finish, we'll be one and done.

Well to recall an old saying from back in the day....'that was a bummer'...It looked like we laid down and no team that has aspirations of better days...lays down....We looked like we were not ready for this game and that's a bloody shame and a sham to put before the Bomber faithful who want desperately to win at home....Having said that I hope we kick Ottawa's arse next week and finish where we should, in second place not a lay, down back door job..(still possible to finish as the crossover at this point) entry into the playoffs...Just a bloody horrific game and I hope we've put this one behind us...Time for a few more beers.

I hope Adams has a good game cuz Gurley and a lot of Bomber fans will be watching very closely....IF he doesn't, the decision to start him over Gurley will be very glaring...I'd luv it if Darvin lites it up....we shall see.

....Someone said it once and it's still rings true....stats. are for losers...The name of the game is WIN...not post gigantic stat. numbers while your club sits in the basement...(see Darian Durant version 16'.)

We didn't sign Gurley to sit...How do we know that Adams is even 100 percent...Gurley plays.

Esks. playing like they want in the back door back east...Riley looks like crap and B.C. looks like world beaters....who knew

What da ya mean...they have choices in saskabush..There's your frozen hayride, your weekly 'dance with your cousins' jamboree, and swamp skating...It's a tough call for them..

.....Will it matter....Ricky will have the same receivers to throw to as Willy....that would be a suspect bunch....If he does start ...what happened to the statement by the argos, that Willy will be their man for the rest of the year???

The fans would go wild IF they put the kibosh on Wild...Although his injury right now is taking the glow off of his stellar play at the beginning of the year (see tackling machine)...I just can't see us parting ways with Ian...If we did the green guys next door would pick him up in a flash.....no way.

IF he was, I'm not going anywhere near that whistle....Progress halted...play dead no matter what happens after that...pretty simple unless you want to discuss exactly when that whistle went.....you know the one that could have had gas pass through it...(sorry bannatyne, but for some reason that struck me as funny and I now half to clean the coffee off of my keyboard)...lol

Finally....geez it's been so long I forgot the feeling...Now to make something of it...Start by hanging another one on the leos this week.

The corps of the receiving for the argos got up and left....Built in excuse for Willy BUT they still have some gamers that can catch....he didn't get the ball there...Looked oh so much like the qb. we dumped and it looks like Willy will become the serviceable qb. in T.O, most of us thought he was ....and shall remain....Mark that trade by Walters as an A PLUS..

I was particularly peed off with the way that all of the panel had the same take...Not even a smidgen of doubt in their mind and it was definitely a fumble...Feeding that b.s. to the masses and not a peep that ....'well maybe it wasn't a fumble...Right from Rod bozo Black on down there was no other way to see it...Yet the juggling act- non catch (as far as I was concerned) by Arceneaux was never even brought up...Bogus and slanted and I hope they take the orange glasses off for the next one.

Not one guy on the tsn panel seen the 'supposed' fumble our way....Says a lot and they all can go take a flying leap...(okay I'll cut Milt a little slack cuz he does come across as unbiased a lot more)....Seems not only can we not catch a break on the field of play (see bogus Arcenault catch juggling the bloody ball all the way out of bounds) we can't catch a break from the panel...Controversial play for sure but the command centre has the final say and they ruled 'down by contact'...Message to the panel...try taking the orange bloody glasses off with regard to that one and try a shade of blue for cripes sake............................Great win by the Bombers in any event

In that melee it was hard to tell exactly when Harris actually touched the turf...I believe he was down and the whistle blew ending the play..The ball did come out but the play was whistled dead before the ball came out....Matters not anyway as the command centre ruled it was a dead play and not a fumble..How many have we seen go the other way and cost us bigtime...Great win.

I was mortified when I saw Moe go down...I thought ....oh boy here we go...Another guy (mvp) headed for the ir...the guy we so depend on in our D...I leapt out of my seat when he returned and made that tackle on Rainey, with not a lot of room to spare...What else can you say about Leggett.. ALLSTAR ALL THE WAY...Harris had a good game but I thought Dressler had a better one...I don't know what happened to our punt coverage on the Rainey returns but then again he burns everyone in this league...I have to believe that our last plays when we needed to secure the ball was a little loose...BUT I think the command centre got it right and the ruling of no fumble was correct...Great back and forth game and am looking forward to the next game in B.C.

Exactly Mike....Big Country returns....Why he didn't work out for the arenogoods I don't know ....what I do know is that this guy can catch and motor..

Get Gurley in the line-up......orrrr will it be a little much getting him oriented that quick...If he isn't I want to see him in Vancouver next game..

Only one fly in the ointment...does anyone know if he has nfl aspirations or can we lock him up for a few years??

Atta boy Walters.....Now you're cookin'...Just what the doctor ordered for our run in the playoffs....Had me doubts...but they have been alieved..

Not unless Gurley is another Adam Bighill....if he is then he might put the stop on Bo and Reilly...Don't think Gurely will help us in the stop dept. but he sure can move the ball downfield on offence...As for Hazelton... his play didn't seem to bother the esks. as they signed him today.

Well I've watched Gurley's play for the last couple years....I think he cracks our line-up easily...Maybe your definition of superior is a little different than mine??

Is Adams back for sure Mike?? and are you going by what O'Shea said who has been known to stretch those returning times..lol..What if he's not ready...I'll agree Gurley is the guy I want signed BUT maybe he knows that and is playing his cards close to his chest hoping for a lot more than we want to pay???Don't know...As for your question..'do we need an upgrade at receiver that badly'?... Anytime you can upgrade and it's in front of your face you go after it...unless you think we have what it takes to be Cup bound...I don't think we have that at this time and a lot of fans following this club don't think so either..I'd sure like the group of receivers we have now, to prove me wrong, and if you believe Mike O I guess we do...We'll see.

Guess it came together pretty quick for Hazelton...IF you don't strike when the iron is hot...you might as well dither I guess...Seems like this organization does a lot of that and then have all kinds of excuses to protect the status quo... I really like the guys we got but it is so glaring that we need to upgrade at receiver...Fans are not dumb and are not going to buy that this club has what it takes to go somewhere post season... Especially after the last two games..We don't need play by play from reporters for sure...Flawless Lawless and his musing will do....but I'd really like to see a signing.

.....It's odd we haven't heard a peep about 'maybe' signing one of these guys...Lawless and other media reporters have been mute concerning these recent cuts from T.O....We get wonderful stories of how touring Henoc has been doing but zippo on these guys...You'd think there'd be something out there ...negative or positive...The more this drags out the more it looks like we are passing on these receivers...I don't think that's going to sit too well with the locals, especially considering what other competition in our division has done..
