Bit of a hike to the stadium from there though. Shark Club is a lot closer. Well, we are staying near the waterfront and our hotel is near E&C, but I was hoping something for closer to the stadium. I'll keep the Shark Club in mind, but would also like to try out something I can't get here.

It wouldn't be so bad if we weren't playing BC again... but since we are- it's kind of like driving your thumb in their eye. They are going to be pissed and amped up.

Bigblue204 Posted July 11, 2018 Report Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) Wally is using it as he should. Get his boys ramped up to actually make a play. It is what it is. Doesn't bother me at all. I do think this game could be a bit of a trap though. Bombers will be fired up of course, but I think any lead unless it's absolutely huge will be a struggle to hold on to. I expect BC to play a full 60 saturday to try and stay in the pack of the West. Saying that, the Bombers need to win this one as well. Have yet to be above .500 this year. Have to start showing they're elite if they want to be called it. Edited July 11, 2018 by Bigblue204
NorthernSkunk Posted July 11, 2018 Report Posted July 11, 2018 I agree, if the Bombers and Nichols want to be known as elite they need to win games like these. It would definitly help to amp things up for us Bomber fans as well.
Fan Boy Posted July 11, 2018 Report Posted July 11, 2018 Bighill will be ready. Fred C Dobbs, SPuDS and blue_gold_84 3
Fan Boy Posted July 11, 2018 Report Posted July 11, 2018 I hope the secondary is more ready. Unless the pressure prevents a good long pass.

Buono is certainly getting long in the tooth, but he's been around long enough to know what to do when he needs to prepare a team to play, and they certainly got their pride over there plus a home crowd that I'm sure will fill up BC Place Saturday night. Plus even though I think Jennings may make a mistake or two in this game, I still expect him to play better than he did last game. It will look much more like the tightly contested games we've been having against these guys the last few years I expect.

Tracker Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 Three predictions about the game: 1) The Bombers will win handily 2) All of the Lions fans will arrive in the same taxi 3) Wally will take a giant step towards retirement Rod Black, Mark F and kelownabomberfan 2 1

BomberBall Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 Some uncertainty about #Bombers secondary for this week's game at B.C. Chandler Fenner has not practised so Moe Leggett was filling in at dime back (SAM), but Leggett seems to have tweaked something in practice today. Could be a big shuffle coming if both can't go. ................. Ted Wyman @Ted_Wyman 4m4 minutes ago Moe Leggett has returned to the action for the #Bombers, and is playing dime back again Wow, thankfully Moe came back.

Nichols was just letting everyone know the great job the Hogs did for him. If he didn't say anything publicly most fans would never know. Wally should worry about the shitty job he is doing as a head coach & former GM. He keeps playing that piece of stink qb Jennings. Plus his backup Travis Lulay still hasn't recovered from his ACL tear from last year. This is the team Wally recruited & signed. He has to live with it. Having said that, the Bombers must stop Burnham & Arceneaux from getting on a roll. Edited July 12, 2018 by SpeedFlex27 rebusrankin 1
BomberBall Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 From Knuckles.... Bombers have lost CFL leading special teams tackler Shayne Gauthier for at least 2 weeks due to injury. Chandler Fenner questionable for Saturdays game in BC. BigBlueFanatic and rebusrankin 2

Pickle Rick Posted July 13, 2018 Report Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) I feel like the drum guy in bc is obviously on the Lions payroll. A hype man/mascot disguised as an embattled life long season ticket holder. I get the same vibe from the guys that get a lot of camera time during Argo home games, with cheesy signs written up by the Argos marketing team. 😔 Edited July 13, 2018 by Pickle Rick

USABomberfan Posted July 13, 2018 Report Posted July 13, 2018 Well, it will be .... Travis Lulay. Should be more interesting but still very winnable.
