To Be Positive

[rebusrankin]

To be positive, which we might all need after Friday's debacle,  we are going to have a winning record for back to back seasons. First time that we have done this since 2001-2003.

And if we have to lose...better now then when we can't fight another day. Plus if Nichols is out for a couple of games we get our backups in to see what they have.  Let's see how we do in the playoffs before we have a melt down as fans.?

quick question - if the Bombers lose the final 4 games and depending on what the Riders  do will the Bombers only have the cross over to look forward to? I guess there are too many variables to consider at the moment with 4 games still left to play etc.

How is this positive? It's downright depressing. Let's watch our backup **** the bed playing for Nichols. Another "positive thought" here. If we lose 4 in a row because of Nichols being out the chances of Ritchie Hall returning becomes greater as it will be the loss of Nichols & not a bad defense that will be bl;amed for an imaginary losing streak.

edmonton has 5 games left sitting at 7-6. If you assume the Bombers finish 10-8, Edmonton needs to go 4/5 to pass the Bombers

Saskatchewan has 4 games left sitting at 8-6. They need to go 3/4 to pass the bombers

So both these teams can only lose 1 game (and they play each other) to pass the bombers, which would cause us to cross over if we lost the last 4. So crossover is a slim possibility

Cause as long as Nichols is back for the playoffs we have a good a shot as anyone to win the Cup.

The magic number is 3 also edmonton and Saska both play eachother they both also play the stamps so they have both have a hard one.

A bump in the road. Look on the sunny side, we got over it.

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

To be positive.. We' ve yet to lose back to back games all season. I'm sure the boys will be fired up at home tomorrow night.
