rebusrankin Posted October 4 Report Posted October 4 Wasn't it two games for Walker? I remember being at that game and thinking he could be a star. Running had a good half a season with us in 98 if I recall correctly. Then Walker wanted a dump truck full of $ and we traded for Kerwin "ball to his junk" Bell. Believe we dealt Running as part of the deal.
Noeller Posted October 4 Author Report Posted October 4 Some interesting perspective from an outsider... Deiter Fan, JohnnyAbonny, Piggy 1 and 1 other 4
Pickle Rick Posted October 4 Report Posted October 4 Bombers could've won 3 out of 4 of those games to start the year, things have started to bounce our way and we're first in the west. Looking like a very good team in a season of just good teams. 9-6 seems bang on to me. I can't see anything confusing or confounding there lol. Bigblue204 1
Noeller Posted October 4 Author Report Posted October 4 So I remember listening to the CJOB pre game show for the season opener and Tait, DT and Big Bird go around the table and say "What Will The Bombers Record Be After The First 4 Games" and Tait said unequivocally, "4-0!". So after that first month.... I couldn't stop thinking "ah jeeze that really went sideways for poor Ed..." But damned if they haven't pulled the nose of the plane back up.... wbbfan and Mr. Perfect 2

Fatty Liver Posted October 4 Report Posted October 4 (edited) Stumbled upon this old game on YouTube from 1963, it features Ron Lancaster and George Reed and is well worth watching through for it's many oddities, one of which is the insane playoff structure the CFL employed back then, the Western team would have to win 4 or 5 playoff games to make the GC while the Eastern team only 1.

I did a break down before the win streak about how we’d need to split all our series and find ways to steal a couple extra wins to get back into the race. Instead, we just won all of them to date lol. Nice to be able to turn that on. Be nicer if it wasn’t just turned off to start the year. Training camp/ pre season lasted like 2.5 months this year it was brutal lol Noeller 1

I find the blood splattering on this still a bit troubling.

Nichols and ford are both hands down better dbs. With all our guys healthy, Milligan maybe makes our roster. I’ve never seen a db soo hyped up on tackles. Even holm is just behind Milligan in tackles. No one is talking about him being on of our best dbs. He’s our worst, though still good. for modp it’s a joke. For mop, sickening. 20 minutes ago, Booch said: But they also like to yammer on kid Canada...blah blah blah...yet here is a Canadian born...and trained...db...one of best in league...on best defence and they'd rather yap about cover-alls a QB who came back and looks like what he is...good (kinda) but not all world..and make excuses for him yet VA was doing just fine with same cast of characters and a DB on the worst pass defence in the league cause he got a mityfull of interceptions in bunches early Brady and brown are the two best players in the league at their position. Positions historically dominated by imps. They both play on the hottest and best team in the league. Both instrumental in the longest win streak in the league. If either was on another team theyd get the Rourke treatment. Noeller and Booch 1 1
