He would be the in-game, emergency replacement... not something permanent if Medlock went down for any period of time... Watching Jake Thomas line up for a field goal would be worth the price of admission!

If Ekakitie develops into as good a player as Thomas next year... we have a solid starter at DT (that one starter being the rotation of Thomas and Ekakitie)...

I think it's more fun to just pretend he is Mike Kelly Outside of Sinopoli... there is not one Canadian receiver that is "scaring" opponents...

Interesting that he ignored Mr Loffler...

There is zero chance that Jovon knows what humble means...

Bombers **** the bed friday night... no question about that... But what I fail to comprehend... is that some people act like the LDC and the most recent game are the only two that matter in the last 11... BTW we are 9-2 is said last 11 games... If the Bombers put up another dud against BC, I might be concerned... but I expect them to come out string and lay the boot to BC on Saturday... I think we beat BC and Tor and lock up second... then lose to BC (who might be eliminated by this time)... then beat Calgary's back-ups in week 20...

I think you're bang on... the QB (or any player) is literally one injury away from being out any time they go out there... if he can grip and throw the ball... he plays, end of discussion...

Whose magic number?... the Bombers magic number is 2... b/c they have the tie-break on both Sask and Edm...

I think we're on the same page here... my first post does appear to be a little ambiguous... sorry about that...

Just to clarify Edm is currently 7-6... so a win (as you've predicted) would put them at 8-6...

This one is pretty simple for me... is Harris playing? If yes: Ottawa If no: BC

this is a really confusing response... you start out by saying that my belief is consistent with scientific evidence (I have not read all the scientific literature on this topic, just offered an opinion)... then say that science proves my beliefs to be completely wrong?? At what point did I claim science states climate change is 100% human caused?... I fully believe climate change is real and encouraged by human behavior... but I also think there would be climate changes, even if humans did not exist...

I actually disagree with you completely here... you don't think 1000/1000 would mean a ton to the hogs, Nichols and the receivers who block for him... this would reflect an accomplishment for the entire offense, IMO...

I think JaMarcus Russell and Ryan Leaf will have something to say about that!

Open Bar!?! I would never be ashamed to admit going to games if that's the case...

I don't think anyone... other than rider fans... is actually arguing this...

not that I think either is on the table... but if we HAD to trade one of them, I think it would be a no-brainer to trade Nevis... Poop is younger, cheaper, and has consistently performed better this year... and most importantly has a awesome nickname...

Sorry @Jpan85 but your grammar is not exactly up to snuff... if it had looked like this: It would have been more clear!

you make a good point here... I've always believed that the earth is going through some sort of cycle right now... historically the earth basically destroys itself every several million years, so maybe we are in the process of seeing that now... are humans helping out the cause? probably a little bit... but I have a hard time believing the current climate change is 100% human induced...

Hmmm, Ted Wyman reports on what he sees in practice.... then uses logic and a little bit of reasoning to report on the football club without hearing it from them... Meanwhile, Wicek is probably crying right now that no one has given him an update on the injured players...

I'm not so sure about that... I still have confidence that he'll make a big kick in a big situation... but he is 5th or 6th in kicking % right now...

He's already gone on record as saying just give him the ball and he will score touchdowns and knock people over... also that he is too talented to be in the sidelines... he thinks he's going to walk in here and become the best RB in the league overnight... That, coupled with the fact that he plays for the Riders... makes me want him to fail miserably and wash out of football for good...

It's stories like this that make me so thankful to live in Canada.... Every time I hear someone talk about America being the best country in the world, my first reaction is "impossible, 2nd to Canada is as high as you can go".... And yes, I realize we are not immune to terrorist attacks and extreme gun violence... but it is almost an every day occurrence in the US... How different could that Edmonton attack have been if the terrorist had easy access to assault/automatic weapons... I genuinely feel safe going almost any where in Canada... can't say I feel the same way when I'm in a lot of areas in the US...

I'm always tempted to lean towards Stan Bryant when the conversation of "who's the best O-lineman" shows up... he's the anchor of the line, he leads with his play... and how often is Nichols pressured from the blind side?

I agree with you... but if he walks into that game at 985/955 (or whatever)... there's no chance he's sitting....
