Looking ahead to the Banjo Bowl

[White Out]

I'll be home in 2 days and can't wait to be there. If we limit the turnovers and penalties, or get refs who can see, should be a win.

I want to see how well Mr. Fajardo plays at 108 decibels.

How many tickets sold to date ?....... 

[DR. CFL]

The fact remains....how many teams win when they score 17 points?

I checked Ticketmaster a few hours ago and it seemed like there were quite a few singles left...but that was about it. Hopefully it'll be a sell out

Hopefully not a lot of green shirts.

Wrong thread- take that **** over there. New thread- flush and move on.

Banjo Bowl is going to be nasty, O'Shea extremely upset over Rempel being taken out.

We need some one in the back field who can block, a better game plan and better tackling at three second level.

Blatant hit on Rempel. We rarely see O’Shea so upset, but he was justified.

[BBlink]

Very important game to win if we want to hold onto first place. Gotta believe Streveler took a step yesterday. Obviously far from a complete quarterback but given the cards he was dealt he made a real go of it

[blue_gold_84]

With yesterday's loss, the Banjo Bowl becomes a must win game, IMO. I think the offense will be better, especially early in the game.

It still chaps my hide the defense couldn't get a stop on last possession by the Riders.

I just saw that hit on our long snapper. Unreal. Not only was it blatant, but that it was missed by the officials is pathetic. And clearly from the reaction by the coach, he thinks it was intentional as well. I'm expecting a fine for sure, and would be really happy if the fine was in the form of a suspension.

15 yard UR penalty at that time would have turned a punt into an easy FG from the Rider 35 as well.  I can understand if the play is not challengeable but it should have been flagged by the Command Center.

Looked like O'Shea was pointing at Dickensen.

 shows you how completely shitty that ref crew was yesterday.  O'Shea restrained by his own staff. He's never like that.

Refs did a very good job of ruining a football game.

Absolutely!! The command centre constantly seems to be interfering with the calls on the field ( which I fine to be demeaning to the officials ) and to not have that play reviewed and called back is brutal.

[Mr Dee]

What I want to see in the Banjo Bowl is Shaq Evans sweeping his jersey off with his hands to remove all the granules from his jersey after getting hit...hard. That prima donna.

There's probably no coach in the league that could take Osh in a fight, but I'd particularly like to see him go a couple rounds with CD....

In the NFL regularly

[rebusrankin]

The cheap shot on Rempel is yet another example of how the eye in the sky is a ******* joke.

[Mr Dee]

It was an unreal miss..

Claybrooks might get him just on size but other than that. I'd pay money to watch MOS beat the snot out of both Dickenson brothers.

I have rarely seen Mike O as livid as he was on that obvious cheap shot that took out Rempel....Sure as hell looked planned to me and if that's the way the riders want to play it...watch out in the banjo...Riders better be watching all angles for angry Bombers cuz even up time is around the corner..That injury to our long snapper was the most blatant non-call I've seen all year...What the hell good is the eye in the sky when they miss that kind of blatant attempt to injure...Might as well scrap it and close the eye lids on the 'eye in the sky' for good  cuz they were sure blind on that one

[Goalie]

There is no eye in the sky.. Its an old man in a booth in Toronto. 

Likely what TSN shows they get.. Gotta love how TSN showed a replay on a no yards call since Rider fans are idiots and thought we deserved a no yards call on 1 play.
