Man I’d love to get a bbq pit area going for tailgating. 

There was a few gas fired pits out there. A smattering of smokers, Hundreds of grills! Smelled great!

“Pathetic” was the actual word I chose to describe SK in the first draft of the post. It seemed the Bombers were in their heads that early, and they knew it. 

[Stickem]

Collaros........no doubt who is the driving force behind this club

Jefferson/Jeffcoat.........they are the biggest part of this teams dominance

Bailey/Demski/Schoen.......what a trio to try and cover.....excellent game by these guys

[TBURGESS]

1. Collaros - Brilliant play yet again

2. The Jeffs - Dominant again

3. Bailey - Best game of the year by far

HH - Gotta go with Sara

What time do you intend on showing up at the stadium? Could make for a long day.

HH - The doorknob draped in a BB flag who was kicked out of the park and ride line for assaulting an older rider. Somehow he got on the next bus, but was pulled off that one for causing another disturbance. I ever there was a candidate for IPDA (drunk tank) it was this guy.

He should have his BB flag taken away and be ordered to never mention at any time both in person and virtually that he cheers for the Bombers plus make amends with Rider fan he assaulted.

Simple explanation why other fans think the Bombers haven't suffered injuries... ignorance... in reality they see Collaros, Jefferson, Bighill, Bryant, Jeffcoat playing in every game and just assume the team hasn't had any significant injuries... they don't understand how important players like Wilson, BA and Ellingson (among many others) are to this team... it doesn't bother me... let them think it's just luck or the refs (largest LOL possible)... we'll just keep heading towards a third consecutive GC in historic fashion...

Anyway... I'm not going to break the rules like some you cheaters around here giving the awards to whole position groups 😁

1) Zach Collaros... no explanation needed
2) Willie... see above
3) Hardrick... see above

HH to the onion cutter that must have been in my house somewhere during the half time presentation and the Zach Collaros post game interview with Sara Orlesky... I'd say she'll be missed but lucky for us we don't lose her

It's so darn hard to stay within the rule on pics.....because we have so many damned good players😊

Sorry Sara is leaving for hockey BUT she's still in the Peg.....Maybe bring a little luck to the Jets....lord knows they need it

I think she's doing "special features".

So she'll mostly produce videos that will are during games featuring individual players.

Still doing stuff for the Jets broadcast on TSN too I think like she has in the past.

gotta send out a HH to Bomber photographer Robert Reyes Ong who shot this ludicrous photo of Sheed's pylon TD. 

this is just such a great photo with everyone freeze-framed staring at the ball.  good shot of an official doing their thing too, finding the line of sight to the ball through the chaos.

More of Ong's stuff is available at https://www.instagram.com/therobong

That photo has become my new background screen.

 

[Saidin]

I always thought it's weird that the pylon is on the white and not in the corner on the green.  Can someone explain that to me?

She hasn't helped the Jets so far.  Not like she's new to covering them either.

The start of the white line is the plane of the goal line.  The ball doesn't have to cross into the green, it just has to cross into the white.

That being said, I'm surprised that touching the front or outside of the pylon counted as a TD as that is clearly out of bounds.  I always though the players had to touch the inside of the pylon for it to count and was surprised that Bailey's dive was counted as a score.

Yea my thoughts exactly.  I could see you touching the inside of the pylon, but the outside?!

[BaconNBigBlue]

The CC confirmed it was a TD based on the fact it was a spectacular TD and it knew it would be on highlight reels a lot.  Great exposure.

I hate defending the riders, however considering where they were on the field, and their opponent, playing 3 down ball was the correct call. Punting wouldn't have netted them much if anything and you need to score TDs against Winnipeg, not field goals. I honestly wish more CFL coaches would play 3 down ball when they're on the opposing teams side of the field.

[TBURGESS]

You don't have to touch the pylon. It's breaking the plane of the goal line. That plane extends past the field of play. As long as the player was in bounds when he jumped and the ball goes past the plane before he touches the ground again, it's a TD.
