    I'm not quite as old as some (turning 38) but I'm sure what Zach has done in only 2.5 seasons so far has to rank him damn near the top of all time Bomber great QBs. No QB in our history has gone on the run he has (major major part played by coaching/scouting) and not many QBs in CFL history has done what he has. Zach has turned into the just Medlock of qb,always confident something positive will happen when Zach is on the field. Were seeing history and I'm glad it'll be a story I can relay to CFL fans down the road of having witnessed it first hand.
  2. If the Saskatchewan Roughriders are angry about the CFL’s awkward scheduling, they aren’t saying it out loud. Only in the CFL could one team play its eighth game of the season against another squad playing its sixth. That was the quirky scenario faced by the Riders in their 32-17 loss to the B.C. Lions on Friday night, dropping their record to 4-4. Hey, Dummy, you know who was playing game 8 against another squad playing its 6th and coming up a bye? The Winnipeg Blue Bombers and they were doing it on the road not a home. https://3downnation.com/2022/08/01/saskatchewan-roughriders-not-blaming-tough-schedule-for-losing-streak/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

    IMO, the first good OL that Collaros ever played behind, was in Winnipeg. Thanks for reminding me about Northern Skunk - show yourself out. 😅

    At this point I thought he needed his own thread. He has won us 2 cups already and is on his way to another MOP season. I feel ripped because we lost a whole season with him. He is despite his relative short duration with us in the discussion as best Bomber QB ever...

    He's done far more than bounce back, I believe he's currently playing better than he has at anytime during his CFL career.

    Re-watch the 2011 Grey Cup loss against the Lions, that games provides solid evidence that Buck as a QB couldn't think his way out of a wet paper bag. The most frustrating football game I have ever watched.

    I think the view of this trade around the league was one of good insurance but from a place of desperation. I don’t think any one saw us getting an mop in this trade even the mafia. I was thinking about it last night actually. If we had picked up collaros to start the 2018 season and he performed like he has since taking over the starters role, do we win that grey cup too? If we had him in 17 how far do we go? Also if we had Masoli instead of collaros as we often pursued him do we win any cups?

    One change I’d like to see…let’s get Harrison/McCrae with more reps on O and let Grant focus on returning kicks. Suppose if Ellingson is back it’s a moot point. Grant doesn’t add much to O as an every down player, don’t mind mixing him in. Seems like his returns are down when he takes more snaps on O. Also let’s get a look at Harrison and McCrae in live action when the stakes aren’t too high for us.

    Welcome to the CFL. Many moons ago Wendy's was a sponsor. We had to watch a commercial about a German exchange student named "Uder" about 50 times a game. Just something you have to tolerate.

    I was really happy to read multiple comments from stamps fans on Calgarypuck that our fans in Calgary were awesome and made it hard to hate the Bombers I remember when we won in Calgary in 2019 I posted I hoped we didn't get big heads and become massive ***** like the Riders and their pig fans. So happy we're still cool even with success.

    Imo she try’s too hard. Too over the top and contrived. She just needs to be more herself and focus more of her energy on football. On an unrelated note just as a fyi to the marketing folk and the CFL showing stupid Sleeman commercials over and over and over again ensures I will never ever buy that product.

    I predict Collaros will come in and beat the stampeders at home, to finish off the regular season, take the long road through the west playoffs, win the cup convincingly, start the next season, win MOP, win the cup back to back, And continue and go on to a 8 and 0 record in 2022, and amass a 25-3 or will it be 25-2 record win streak for the Bombers. nah, just kidding. It’ll never happen. When is Nichols getting off the injury reserve?

    I was absolutely certain that if he was even brushed by a falling feather, that he'd be toast. While he has been protected better than anywhere else in the league, he has occasionally taken some shots and proved to be durable so far (*TAPS FOREHEAD TO KNOCK ON WOOD*)

    I believe Harrison is in the lineup because we don't have any Canadian backup receivers. I wonder if we would look at signing Mike Jones as a backup who was released by the Elks.

    Yup, I hated the trade at the time, because I didn't think Collaros would last more than a game. Turned out that Collaros is the difference between mid-tier and dominant. I'll happily say I was wrong about Collaros.

    I recall an efficiency expert being brought in to assess costs at HSC. May have been the same person. They said the hospital needed to immediately slash $400,000 off the top and targeted shift nursing positions instead of middle management salaries. And guess what the payment to the efficiency expert was for their services? Yep, $400,000.

    If there was a potentially better deal out there, I have to believe that the CFL would have taken it. Since CTV owns TSN, that is not an option, which leaves CBC which has been systematically dismantled over the past 20-30 years under Conservative regimes. We can bewail circumstances but they are what they are.

    1- Zach was a surgeon and one of his best performances as a Bomber 2-Schoen/Demski,Demski shows his importance with an immediate impact and Schoen has been nothing short of spectacular and vet like 3- Oliveira - huge game for him and a 100 yard game he desperately needed HH- THIS ENTIRE TEAM. The next man up mentality is so finely tuned with this team that the next man feels like an every day starter. O'Shea,Walters and Miller deserve immeasurable amounts of credit.

    Yup the Nichols turn around of 2016. The Bombers rolled into McMahon on a 7 game heater and everything went wrong until late in the 3rd quarter. Bo Levi started off his infamous quote almost sympathetically as he shrugged, “They’re a team that’s trying to find out who they are..” before smirking into the camera, “We’re going to continue showing them that”. Kalil Bass fumble recovery sparked a furious comeback. Took the lead but the 2016 soft-as-butter defense allowed a walk-off Paredes field goal to preserve Calgary’s superiority. That game definitely cemented my dislike of Bo and D Dickenson.

    It's not about entitlement or having to be told what to think. There's a difference between not giving up information that may be useful to other teams and directly lying to the Media. MOS directly, unabashidly, and confidently lies. Kinda Trump like.

    Great move, I can see them platooning Collaros and Streveler, not overplaying either guy, Collaros will give you that situational experience that you need from a vet and Streveler can go back to being the gung ho type of player he is. Walters just may have saved the season for a 3rd round pick, take that any day and twice on Sundays.
