CFL Week 8 Preview
I actually think Tate might be a decent fit in Mtl.... but the reality of it happening is a whole different story...

Riders unveil their "Signature Look" jersey
I believe they will each be different designs. The black jerseys BC had last year are apparently their version of this release. Who knows why they were released a year early. These aren't bad.... if we did something similar to this... featuring royal blue (even navy blue would be ok) with gold outlined numbers and a gold W on the shoulder.... I'd be happy with that, I'd even consider buying one... We already did that. See 2007 Grey Cup. What? 2007 Grey Cup we wore the Gold 50s (or 60s I forget) retro jersey.... not even remotely close to what I was suggesting.... but FTR I do really like those jerseys too...

Week 8 Depth Chart
It's weird that this is being released on a Monday... crazy 9 team schedule...

Esks @ Awful Als / Tabbies @ Leos
Have you ever seen Peyton Manning take a sack? he never gets hit cuz he goes down when all other options are gone... it's called being smart...

Injury Update - August 9
Interested in seeing Stoudermire... I know nothing about him but have heard good reviews.... and when Rider fans/media say they released a good one, he must be pretty good....

I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY KEPT THE TRAMP STAMP.... is Sask really that trashy???

Henoc Muamba
I believe I saw on the Colts website that he beefed up to around 245 lbs...

Roll up the sleeves.....
Honestly I had no problem with the decision to make that throw (the pick 6).... he just executed it poorly... the one and only mistake you can't make on that throw is an under-throw... and sure enough.... Turns out Drew Willy isn't perfect.... but I still love the guy and am perfectly happy hitching the wagon to him for years to come!

Lost is two words
two words?.... RUN GAME... applies to why we lost, both offensively and defensively...

3 Game Losing Streak!
"we gave up on Mike Kelly too soon" made me laugh...

Is Kent Austin the most "hated" coach in the league?
true... But TBURG makes a good point.... whether Willy ends up in BC or not is irrelevant... but there's a pretty good chance he wouldn't have ended up in Winnipeg

Argos at Als / Leos at Stampeders
Rod Black still trying to get digs in at the bombers expense... #ClassicRodBlack

Argos at Als / Leos at Stampeders
I'm a little embarrassed we just barely beat Mtl....

Argos at Als / Leos at Stampeders
I don't see the connection...

MB's play calling
I don't remember seeing Willy get hit once during the game, or even run for his life much at all. Would you prefer we just have Pontbriand start at RB? He's probably a great blocker, if you want to sacrifice the 120 yards and game winning TD Grigsby got us. You don't remember when Willy got nailed by three Hammy rushers and stayed on the ground for a few seconds??? I thought that play was pretty critical... he got up holding his left forearm... I was starting to get nervous thinking we might get our first taste of Brohm..

Comparative analysis - How bad is the Bombers OL?
I doubt Neufeld loses his spot after missing half a game (and assuming he's ok for next game)... but it would be interesting to see what a Jan-Greaves-Morley-Goossen-Howard line can do....

GDT: Winnipeg @ Hamilton
I honestly want to say that Zach Anderson is our best D-lineman.... but I'm afraid to.... cuz Bryant Turner will find out.... and he'll find me.... and as we all know he has a very particular set of skills... skills that he has acquired over a very long career... skills that make him a nightmare for people like me...
-
Drew (Joe Montana) Willy
Wasn't he a free agent? I believe he is the only player that O'Shea probably recruited himself. I believe we made him an offer that also included getting offensive snaps... where as Tor planned to just use him on teams... or maybe I just made that up in my head to justify my argument
-
MB's play calling
I think Grigsby did a good job to "show" he was blocking then quickly run out to the flats... not a lot of LBs are gonna be able to react and respond that quickly... especially not DEs...
-
Jovon Johnson placed on six game IR
Apparently he's not back...
-
Drew (Joe Montana) Willy
Sometimes when I see him out there I forget we were once concerned about starting him... I can now say I would feel 100% comfortable starting JFG, Kohlert, and Watson if the ratio circumstances required... and Watson was actually healthy
-
Drew (Joe Montana) Willy
I have no issue with his play, and certainly would have put zero blame on him if we lost... I think he's turning out to be a great receiver... point is, some guys get shaken when they make a turnover... in this case the fumble... but he showed great poise and professionalism to come back and make the catch to set up the game winner
-
Drew (Joe Montana) Willy
Speaking of honourable mention... how about that catch by JFG on the 3 with seconds left in the game.... to hang on to the ball while getting blasted by the safety was incredible.... huge atonement for the fumble earlier...

MB's play calling
I agree... the best part may have been that it was unexpected...
