I think Peter Dyakowski can show you a scientific study that proves this to be true...

that really bothers me every Bomber game... reminder: TNSE does not own the Bombers...

That was a Tony Kornheiser reference from PTI... he always used to call Bill Simmons an "insufferable Boston homer"... no offense intended

On behalf of the Mods (cuz I'm certainly not one)... I'll remind you, that's not how we roll around here.... sure Ripper can be an insufferable Rider homer (Tony Kornheiser reference )... but he's no troll...

I'm confused... none of these are correct...

Somebody screwed up on that play... but don't know who... Dress was thinking corner and Nichols was throwing middle... one of them was correct... and I'm glad we'll never know who... good players/teams never do any public finger pointing...

I legitimately can't tell if Pederson has completely lost it... or taken his ridiculous shtick to new level...

I'm gonna assume this is a tongue-in-cheek comment... If not, Mike is right.... you're losing it...

I bet the Riders wish they had a dynamic pass rusher like that...

He doesn't strike me as the kind of player that would keep himself in shape while not playing...

I have to eat some serious crow about BC... I think I predicted they would be last in the west (yes, behind Sask)... and I also predicted they would have the 1st and 2nd overall pick in the 2017 draft (with owning Mtl's first)... it seems I may have underestimated them...

I think if Durant was our QB we would be 6-3 or 7-2... If we somehow managed to pickup Durant (don't see that happening)... that should shorten Nichols' leash...

I agree with this, to an extent... the first win in Hamilton, the team NEEDED six turnovers to win... that one was ugly and if that was the best we had to offer, then we wouldn't be winning much more... these last 4 games have been a far more impressive team effort... offense isn't blowing the doors off anyone... but they are playing well enough to win... and that's what counts...

I'm not sure which he you're referring to... but I recall the story from both Dressler and Chick was they were willing to negotiate but Jones offered something low and said take it or leave it...

I think this goes to show you the Walter's crew has successfully recruited a legitimate O-line... Had they not signed Bryant the O-line could be Foketi-Bond-Goossen-Chungh-Hardrick... Although Hardrick was brought into the league by BC he was pretty much a cast-off by time we picked him up...

I'm always happy to add Bison players/local guys... being a depth O-lineman is even better... hopefully he works out to be a starter one day...

Why would that change?... the only time he has ever flipped out to RT was the game Hardrick got hurt....

You can't let your obvious bias get in the way if you want to have a critical discussion... you're trying to tell me you wouldn't trade Durant for Jennings or Harris, straight up, today?... and Collaros is debatable?!?! Collaros is far superior to Durant this stage of their careers... If I had to list the current starters I'd want today... based on current talent... I'd go Bo-Levi, Collaros, Reilly, Harris, Ray, Jennings, Durant, Nichols, Glenn (only ranked Nichols higher than Glenn b/c of his ball security)... I agree with ISO... Durant has had a great career (probably HOF) and deserves all the respect he gets... but to say he's still a top QB in the league is certainly a stretch...

This has nothing to do with faith in the team... I have every reason to believe they can win this game... it's just plain, stupid superstition at this point...

In case anyone is wondering... I had to pick the Riders... my last 4 picks in Bomber games have been Mtl, Tor, Ham, Edm... gotta keep it going...

this was all off-season speculation....

I don't think 6 is a huge stretch... certainly not impossible... winning in Calgary might be ambitious... but then again maybe we'll actually win in regina for once...

I'd say you're more than a wannabe with this prediction...

I'm really curious to know who thinks this is a good idea... cutting Willy (unless he takes a major pay cut) makes sense... even Dressler if the injury problems continue... but I don't imagine cutting Smith unless something drastically changes with him...

I think it was tough b/c they were constantly having to edit... there was one bad 2 and out by Ham... and just as Kent starting talking they cut out his mic... then showed him on the sidelines and it was definitely not family friendly material...
