Hajrullahu Sure but how many kickers win the Most Outstanding Rookie award.

says one of the guys who just cant admit he was wrong wrong about what exactly? that we shouldn't have signed messam? If you think for one second that Messam does the same behind our oline as he has done behind sask oline, you are kidding me, he's not even their number 1 running back, THe guy sat unsigned for 2 3 weeks. Should we have signed him? I don't think so cuz i don't think he'd make that much of a difference behind our oline. Messams stats for this season 38 rushing attempts for 258 yards. Messams rushing against the bombers... 25 carries 190 yards... Meaning in his other games he has had 13 carries for 68 yards. He's not as good as you think. Would he have made a difference if he was playing for us? No, he wouldn't have because then he wouldn't be playing against us. He's put up all his numbers vs the bombers. 7.6 yard average vs the bombers. 5.2 vs the rest of the league on way way less carries.. THe guy has had 75 percent of his carries this season vs the bombers. He'd make no difference to us at all. Fun fact though : bombers lead the league in giving up the most rushing yards, don't matter who we play or what running back it is, they all RUN on us. Unless the argument is we should have signed him so then he wouldn't be playing against us. But even if that's the argument, why sign a guy just so he doesn't play against you, guess we should sign john chick and everyone else who gives us problems too, just so they wouldn't play against us. Your really reaching... its time to admit it now How am i reaching? Everything i said there was true.

Bombers MOP- Willy MODP - Leggett MOC- Hajrullahu MOOL- Morley MOR- Grigsby MOSTP- Hajrullahu Not sure why Grigsby winning MOR would be a huge laugh, the guy leads the league in yards from scrimmage does he not? He's actually not as bad as this board made him out to be. Name another rookie for his team that has had the impact Grigsby has for us. You can't do it cuz that guy don't exist.

Came back to soon i guess, hopefully he recovers and doesn't play again until next season, give the guy a full off season to recover and i'd suspect he's back playing again. But what a crappy game, yeah i get it was rainy and wet but... what a pathetic game, I'll give Ottawa some credit, they got a Damn good D but... man oh man, this was one of the worst games i watched in a long time and i only really watched the first half... 7-5 final? No touchdowns? Brutal. I'm not scared of BC at all.. they looked very very crappy tonight. Just as a side note, i was hoping in the off-season we would have got us Khari as our OC, but after watching a few BC games, i'm honestly glad we didn't.

LOL. seriously? now you are dissecting ultra vague tweets that could mean just about anything? Maybe he broke up with his girlfriend? Maybe his injury isn't healing properly and he has no control over it. I mean really, This is getting crazy, dissecting tweets now?

Kirk Penton @PentonKirk Mike O'Shea says Cory Watson, who left today's practice, is fine. #Bombers Bauming said the same and said o'shea said watson is fine and will play sunday.

I think the term "healthy scratch" gets over used too much. I doubt he's 100 percent healthy just like i doubt Vega was last week either. Sears hasn't exactly been an iron man in his time with the bombers, he misses significant time every season, for all the "hate" lets say that watson gets, sears seem to get a free press and he's injured just as much if not more. Johnny Sears Jr ✔ @JJr0 When you can't control it, focus on what you can control and be in full control Guess that's the tweet that implies he's a healthy scratch? Pretty vague really. Maybe he's referring to the injury he has?? I mean, it's just as easy to think that than it is to think he's a healthy scratch.. can't control the injuries can he?

Well, first of all, and i'll just say this because that's really all you need to know, Ehlers can't be sent down to the AHL this season, it's NHL or Junior for him. He's too young to play in the AHL.. it's junior or NHL for him, no St Johns for him cuz he's not eligible to go to St Johns.

The other thing is, those under 30's, heck let's say under 40's even, 35 to be fair crowd, they will have families of their own and kids of their own and just like what happened to most of us, our parents were fans so in a way it made us fans too, our kids will become fans too. It's a never ending cycle really lol.

Chris Getzlaf's status for Banjo Bowl is "up in the air" due to injury according to Coach Chamblin Should have traded him when he was healthy.

Turns out he's fine and will be playing this Sunday.

I don't know but, the games i've gone too, i've seen more young people than older people actually. Dunno if it's just the games i go too or what, i doubt it but seems to me the bombers and Jets for that matter have quite a lot of younger fans at their games. Let's call them the under 30 crowd.

I'm not sure how accurate that CFL News twitter feed is but... just based on nothing but rumours or a gut feeling, i feel that it's only a matter of time before the argos move in to BMO field, probably not until it's upgraded so not next season but the season after but I truly feel it's just a matter of time. Normally where there is smoke there is fire and there seems to be a lot of smoke when it comes to argos going to BMO.

Well, turns out watson is fine and will be playing sunday.

You won't see Morrissey at the world Juniors because he will be on the JETS. He's the one guy i think this year who is guarateed to make the Jets. I think He's ready and if you follow his twitter account, he's been training and busting his ass this whole off season, really expect him to make the team out of camp and stick.. He's very very good. Nate Mckinnon was asked a while ago, if he was the GM of a team and he could pick any player in his draft year other than himself, who would he pick and he said Josh Morrissey. Morrissey i bet was close last year and didn't look out of place, I'll say this too, there is a reason the Jets called him up to st johns for the ice caps playoff run and didn't call up guys like petan and comrie. Because Josh is ready now to step in. He didn't look out of place at all. I'm gonna go as far to say that he could be rookie of the year this season.

Don't think any other team would trade for watson, even when he was healthy...Cuz he can't stay healthy so trading him for a NI oline, which teams trades good NI olinemen during the season? Especially for chronically injured receivers? NONE. Watson for SJ Green and a Pick, probably have to be Watson plus and a pick for SJ Green.

Reebok giving another big FU to bomber fans here.

Made me go look at my royal blue jersey in my closet to see who made it and what do you know... Reebok. Wonder what the issue is then, gotta be contractual then since Reebok is the one who made the jersey in my closet.

@MorningBigBlue Not quite that simple, unfortunately! My guess, it means the league needs to approve them and probably won't. I don't think this is purely a bombers choice at all, i think the league tells them they can't always wear them. The unfortunately part at the end suggests they would definitely like to wear them more, it leads me to believe that their hands are a bit tied up though by the league.

Interesting to see some of the other choices... McCallum seems to get the NOD from most of them for the kicker spot. Guess that's just based on ??reputation?? Never mind, according to the bc lions stats section on their website, McCallum is 24/25. Only missed one all year.

Also agree with the earlier comment about Johnson being jobbed a bit too, He's been pretty darn shut down back there. If i were to rank the DB's right now, Johnson may be ahead of Randle as he is a CFL rookie playing a spot that CFL rookies normally don't play.

Messam isn't even on the field all the time, he's not even their number 1 back, ford or allen is, i think it's ford but who really knows. Went No because, really, just make the tackle, execute the play, be in the right spot and it doesn't really matter who is back there. Funny thing is, Sask didn't really have much yards running against us last game up until that final drive, we actually did pretty well vs the run last game. That last drive was where sask gained all there rushing yards though not all but... Sask had 160 yards rushing, 4 of those yards were when sunseri was in the game Durant had 3 for 28.. all those were on the last drive Allen had 7 for 38, 15 of that 38 was on the last drive when he scored Ford had 7 for 26, wasn't really used on that last drive was he? Messam had 6 runs for 64 yards.. Probably 20 on the last drive You take away the riders last drive and the bombers actually did pretty well vs the run.

Gonna say it, may not be popular but #randleisland has been invaded more than once this season for sure. Leggett is definitely not getting much love, dude is a beast out there. Agree that Lirim is being jobbed, has 2 misses all year and both have hit the goal post.

be sweet if booker got 5 sacks in a game, then did the 5x 5x 5x 5x 5x shtick after the game talking to irving.

Didn't Ottawa sign him to the PR? he's not even on the active roster, only reason they signed him is because demarco is done for the year, If anyone thinks Elliot will get any playing time being behind burris and 2 other guys, You are kidding yourself. I'm not sure why they brought him in but i'd suspect he doesn't see the field and i suspect he is released in the off season. The only logical reason for them to sign him is because he has some cfl experience but then why did they sign him to the PR and not add him to the active roster.
