 I love the global program, though I’d like to see it grow to more than just kickers and punters. 

Meh, let the Globals actually earn a spot the same as Americans. They should be good enough to truly beat out an American player. Otherwise, I really don't care if they play in the CFL or not. If a global punter can come over here & beat out his opposition then that's great. Otherwise, don't care. 

 

I will say this, I went to the Stamps-Riders game last weekend. I'd never seen Cody Grace punt live. man, does that guy have a strong leg. He was booming them over 50 yards each time pinning the Riders back. Not only distance but towering punts as well giving his cover team down to get downfield to prevent any big returns. Not bad as a directional punter either but definitely his leg strength was a true asset for the Stamps D. The guy is a Global punter from Australia like Sheehan from the Bombers.

Dimwit Usher said it all at halftime..have to play more dirty...nuff said

I totally forgot  to also mention how Usher is a complete clown and would totally fit in with the 2022 Riders team.    Guy show boating when they were down by 2 scores and not doing well at all.   He was an idiot.

Still is. Leopards, spots and all that.

 Ever since Brady realized he belonged last year he has been one of if not the best back league with little or no fan fair

That's his running style. Lunch bucket & powerful back. He 's the working man's running back. Nothing fancy. Hits the hole & runs hard. But you can see that he's maturing as a back. He sees the holes much better & has really improved upon his blocking. The Bombers made the right choice to let Andrew Harris walk as a free agent. 

[17to85]

There were so many times last night he saw the hit coming so just put the shoulder down and gave as good as he got. God willing he stays healthy cause that's the kind of player that can just grind a team down.

Been really busy so haven't been able to check in as much... where's dod? Odds n sods and gin and what not. Have I been missing it? I appreciate the post game segments , hh , odds, etc

 

Someone on here was doing a full week's worth of coaches comments and news. That was great. Which reminds me where is the anonymous segment on 3downnation.com

Said some thing about medical issues. Guess he’s on the 6 game too. Hopefully he’s better soon. 
 They haven’t done it yet this year. And didn’t do it each week last year. It sucks that was their best piece by a lot.

Two questions (unsure if mentioned):

Has anyone rewatched the game to isolate Bighill? I don’t remember him making any tackles. His absence was also noticeable during Mont’s. short yardage/fumble that yielded a 1st down. How much did he actually play?
 

Was the first offensive play from scrimmage a called run by ZC or a miscue? If called, that has to be a first.

How so? Faj dropped the ball on the snap, bighill goes over the top usually on short yardage so the botched snap nullifies all that anyway. That was luck for the als that the ball came back to faj.

He played full game....was more doing deeper drops....came off the edge quite often too...he played fine with what his role was

U don't need to tell me anything...he earned it cause 2 injuries...so if that's earning to u so be it...he was a hold over from last yr..and Osh will favour a hold over 

 

I know the defence they were running...as it was obvious as a fack...and being up in a suite watching the whole field..ya...I can definitely say it was his guy...

 

Dimwit Usher said it all at halftime..have to play more dirty...nuff said

Here’s a quote from BA from the post they released today on the WBB website. “And that big play before that… that was a big ‘my fault’, as well.  I should have been there for Holmie (Evan Holm) on the post, and I wasn’t there. That’s definitely my fault. I’m glad I was able to make it up on the next one. To be honest with you, that interception shouldn’t have even needed to happen because I should have been back there on that post play.”

[Booch]

Yeah he should of or could have been there..but fact of matter..even if he was the HB was roasted...also I was referring to a diff play as well ...as there were several

Also..coming from a player you are always gonna defend and back a teammate...even if it is not so much an issue with your own play...just saying

won't be long before every punter in the CFL is Australian.  I'm a big fan of the AFL (Go Dockers!), those guys can boot it 40,50 yards into a pickle barrel while on the run and a guy hanging off of them, amazing athletes.

I think the league plans to crack down on Bighill's over the top missile shot on the QB this year, if the helmet can't be the target, he doesn't have much to aim at.

Oh, how I wish our Canada Day family holiday had been last week during the terrible game against the BC Lions! I missed this week's thrilling thrashing of the Montreal Alouettes, but alas, such is the random nature of life, where we have no control over the circumstances that unfold. Fate works in mysterious ways and mother karma will pay me back in the future.

Cheers to another Blue Bomber victory my friends!

That's why PVR's were invented.  To counter unwelcome family interventions preventing a live viewing of the festivities.

The CFL should come out with a hat line that features dangling corks.....they could also use a few more Bruces.

just have to make sure that your punter doesn't decide to "go on walk about" during the season lol...

One day we will solve the mystery of which family member of Booch’s Evan Holm assaulted.

 

I can’t wait to find out. 

[JuranBoldenRules]

Holm didn’t cover 500 square yards on one play…he sucks for sure.

If Holm could do his job we wouldn’t even need to dress 5 DBs.
