Should have been thrown out of the game. Our season would have gone down the drain if Willy tore a knee or broke an ankle. I think that should be a suspension actually. That's the way to send a message, i understand willis being fined, it wasn't really blatant and intent to injure, this one was.. the guy should be suspended for it, one of the dirtiest cheapest hits i've ever seen.

I watched that hit on Willy several times and it's actually mystifying what Grigsby was thinking there as he watches Gavins just run by him. That kind of "non-block" on that play leading to your QB getting smoked is a career killer. Ask Corey Boyd if you don't believe me. the piling on grigsby is going a little over board here, that was a very cheap hit, missed block or not.. wasn't grigsbys fault the guy went low and dirty on willy.

A small part of me is enjoying this delay as ticat fans pretty much ripped the crap out of the bombers for their delays.. so a small part of me is enjoying this delay. Pretty basic stadium too, imagine they had a roof on it like IGFs... Yikes.

Kind of like a body check in hockey really ,willis being bigger, collaros not as big... sometimes thats what happens. Don't really think he deserved to be fined as he did seemingly make an effort to lower his shoulder. Looked shoulder first to me, but.. guess since collaros is a qb, he gets the benefit of the doubt. Gotta protect the Qb's i guess but... at the same time, seemed pretty clean to me.

Chop near the airport is pretty decent, went there the other week, was really good, reasonable prices too. Gonna throw this one out there, it's very much a dive but for some reason, i find the dive looking places to be some of the best food around.. Casa Grande. It's a pizza place but it's pretty neat. Very intimate setting there. Dark and yeah, good place for a date also.

It's also just day 1 really so who knows by friday, maybe tomorrow its swiston or goossen taking the reps, maybe morley is moved to guard and goossen goes to the centre position. Still pretty early.

Not good. Scott Radley ‏@radleyatthespec 41m BREAKING: #Ticats will not be playing July 26 or 31 games at Tim Hortons Field because it will not be ready, city says. heard that for every game lost at Tim Hortons Field, the contractor will pay the ticats 1 million dollars, don't be surprised if it's more than just those 2 games.

oh i see, end of the year? well, i'll get back to you in 16 or so weeks.

Break it down in to 2 groups.. Print media and the radio guys The radio guys are pretty decent for the most part.. Irving,Bauming, Brown,mitch,walby,westwood.. they are all fine. Toth is terrible. Thought the Jets would take D man Hayden Fleury in this years draft, honestly made no sense. He said either nylander or fleury so he's wrong most the time actually. Penton and Tait are decent print media guys, penton is ok, has his bad days, he works for the sun so... it's too be expected at times as the sun likes to always go the "negative" route, even when their is nothing negative to report, not just sports but really everything. Radio guys are solid, print media is pretty brutal and i'd suspect most casual fans probably base their thoughts on what the print media says. I doubt they are listening to the radio guys that often. The issue with them is exactly what the op said about toth, they all think they are "know it alls" but in reality, don't even know the rules. LOL at calling wicek out on something and having him block you, talk about arrogant.

interesting, according to the twitter feed on the side, we may see 3 import oline this week as howard is getting lots of reps. January,Howard,Morley,Neufeld,Knapp. Goossen.

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=456632 I wish him the best in his hopeful recovery.

what the hell gives you that impression exactly? bombers come across as very humble much like their coach And i'm not sure exactly what you were watching last game, if you even were but this piling on goossen stuff? i don't get it, yeah he got beat once or twice but he looked pretty decent at times too.

Troy Smith sucks. LOL, for some reason i get the feeling the bombers win this one handily, things could change depending on who starts in place of greaves but... Right now, without really knowing that, i'm gonna say 38-20 bombers. Als score a late td to make it closer than it appears, Troy Smith barely completes 50 percent of his passes, i think if we can game plan to stop whittaker, 38-20 might turn in to 40 + - 10. I just don't think troy smith can beat us by throwing the ball, It's all about if the bombers can stop whittaker, if they can, i expect to see several interceptions by the bombers and several over throws by smith. Stop Whittaker and we win this one easily. If he is allowed to gain yards, i really don't know. I dont think montreal is very good, i actually think they are one of the worst teams in the league actually. Good D yup but that offence is terrible and if you can game plan to stop whittaker, you should be able to beat montreal every week.

jets have a solid top 6, be better with a trade for sharp or someone like that and have a decent group on D, they should be fighting for a wild card, the likely scenario sees the jets pick in that 7-10 spot again. Kane,Scheif,Wheeler Ladd,Little,Sharp ??,Perreault,Frolik. That's a pretty solid top 9 with a guy like sharp even without it's still pretty decent Kane,Scheif,Wheeler Ladd,Little,Frolik ??,Perreault,?? I'm not including buff because i think he will be moved b4 the season starts.

I'd suspect if tsn has that "fans chose which game is replayed again" thing they normally have, ottawa winnipeg will get it, it was the best game of the week by far and sask fans won't want to see the riders lose badly.

I am enjoying it. Who's crapping on them? No one. This is a discussion about whether or not the Bombers can win without Willy? No one has been crapping on any player in any threads other than Grigsby's blocking. Chill. Tell me to chill? weren't you the guy that just told someone to suck an egg? and you are telling me to chill? who is crapping on them? Quite a few of you in some of these threads actually.

Delete - not gonna bother arguing with people who apparently will only be happy when the bombers lose.

1. Winnipeg - beat toronto and Ottawa say what you will but.. 2-0 is 2-0 2. Calgary - beat a bad montreal team but had a bye so i keep them in the top 2 3. Edmonton is 2-0, beat a bad bc team and and equally bad hamilton team 4. Toronto, we wooped them, they wooped sask, they can't be above us cuz we wooped them 5. Sask - Beat a bad hamilton team, got smoked tonight, looked as bad as hamilton did last week in their loss, they can't be above a team they just lost too 6. Montreal - Yeah they aren't good but 1 win is more than 0 wins 7. Ottawa - that first quarter they had was better than what the 2 teams i have ranked below them have shown plus 0-1 is better than 0-2 8. BC - awful. Has glenn lost it? 9. Hamilton - worst team in the league by far right now. Just basing this on right now, not on "talent" cuz that's irrelevant, if we are basing it on talent hamilton should be #2 but funny thing is, all that talent and they look awful. Don't care about last season, don't care about nothing other than what these teams have done this year How anyone can put sask or toronto above winnipeg right now is beyond me. We wopped toronto who wooped sask. Logically we are above both of them.

so... was that a head to head hit on collaros? can't believe i'm gonna say this but i agree with what climie and milt said, willis lead with his shoulder not his helmet. In my opinion, there shouldn't have been a penalty on willis, that was a clean hit.

I feel some may be underestimating the ottawa dline also, they are pretty good actually. Really, Ottawa isn't some pushover, they played pretty well, they will win some games this year, oline has played pretty good the first 2 games so far so really can't really complain too much about the oline. Last year our quarterbacks had half a second to throw the ball, not so much this year.

Benevides would be my guess but i don't think anyone. I could see hamiltons Oline coach, i could even see Khari being canned, regardless of how poor glenn has played, BC's offence looks awful so far, dinwiddie could be but doubt he is fired, just demoted.

Willy's hand injury was because he hit it on another guys hand or helmet, what the heck can the oline do about that? that is a fluke "injury" that we see happen quite often in the CFL and NFL for that matter. Swear to god, 2-0 and you read some posts on the forum here and if you didn't know any better, it's like we are 0-2 and have got killed the last 2 games.

He's usually the 2nd returner on kickoffs. The big adjustment the Bombers made on kickoffs, and this was with Woods too after the first quarter, was to test the Redblacks contain to the width of the field rather than run behind the wedge. noticed that too, washington was actually on the field every time ottawa kicked off, they just kicked it to woods most times, the big return looked like ottawa kicked it to demond as woods was still on the field and made a decent block for demond down field.

or does cotton go in (if healthy) or ford and washington and or cotton (ford) are used to return kicks. Demond did a damn good job of it last night, that kick off return was huge.

Honestly, from where we were last season to where we are now, i think its a drastic improvement in such a short time. The oline gave Willy time most the game, i mean, hey why not give ottawa some props here, They have a very good dline, i think that DLINE is the strength of their team. Really take away the 3rd quarter where willy was a little hesitant due to his hand issue and the oline played pretty solid again. I didn't really notice willy getting killed back there, i mean yeah he took a few hits but quarterbacks get hit, it's not like he was just punished time after time back there, he took a few hits, he also took a cheap shot, big time cheap shot that no doubt rattled him a wee bit. Was it garvin? i dunno but that was a very cheap dirty low hit there. I don't care for those hits at all, that was the one that really stood out to me, the rest, can't tell on tv but... seemed like a few were just coverage sacks. But like i said, Ottawa deserves some props, that dline of theirs is pretty decent.
