6 pointsOk then what about the offensive line giving up pressure non stop? What about the dropped passes? What about even allowing the kick to be blocked at the end? And on and on we go.... some of you hate legs and will go out of your way to blame the kid. You want to blame someone there is plenty to go around because it is damned inexcusable that the Bombers offense couldn't get the job done themselves and score touchdowns like they did all bloody season. They couldn't even sustain drives.6 points- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

6 pointsWho prior to going to the stamps was a young kicker in another city who wasn't good enough.... the point here is that sometimes you gotta give young players time to grow. Legs isn't as awful a kicker as you make him out to be. The misses in the Grey Cup game were not the reason we lost. I'd point a hellnof a lot more fingers at the MOP, veteran, highest paid player in the league than a young kicker6 points- Still love this team

4 pointsPeople who aren't smart enough to see the forest for the trees, complain about the obvious thing "Well, we didn't make that last kick, so we need a new kicker..." and they don't look at the plethora of things that went wrong in that game, including the offense having a relative pants-shitting. They also don't look at the massive leap Liegghio took from last year to this year, and think about the similar leap he could take from this year to next. It's not like P/Ks grow on trees...... we have a near-95% CIS kicker who has a MASSIVE ceiling, if we let him grow into it. He's not the reason we lost that game. I'd hate to see him go be an all-star for another team next year....4 points- Canadian Politics
4 pointsNobody ever said the vaccines stop transmission, they drastically reduce severe outcomes. The reason for boosters is 2-fold, decreasing effectiveness over time and mutation of the virus... no different than the annual flu vaccine because it is different strain(s) of the flu going around every year. As for the protest, if you think that honking horns all day and all night in the middle of a city is peaceful, then there's no reasoning with you.4 points- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

4 pointsTo give a different spin on this, the Buddhists say that our existences here are for three purposes: to wonder, to struggle and to grow. . I cannot recall who said it but everyone we meet is fighting a battle we know nothing about. Therefore, we should always be kind to all. Some time ago, I was on my way home from a long, hard night as an EMT, I pulled up beside a car that has stopped at light just as the sun was beginning to come up. The driver was on my right and as soon as the light changed, he hit the gas and hung a left turn right in front of me. I was tired and a bit slow starting off, which was fortunate, because I had to stand my car on its nose to avoid t-boning him. He had also hit his brakes, coming to a halt about a foot away. I was tired, and cranky, opened my door, got out and was fully prepared to tear him a new one. As I approached him, he rolled his window down and began to babble an apology, but with tears streaming down his face. He was obviously distraught and between sobs told me that he had just come from the hospital where his wife had just died. My anger immediately disappeared, and as I waved him off on his way home, I felt horrible and did for days. Be kind. Always.4 points- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

3 pointsFrom Our Man Tait's wonderful piece: https://www.bluebombers.com/2022/11/24/theyve-built-something-very-cool-here/?fbclid=IwAR1JZnJaYqHVswja5--ToFgMi-f0nvgXySqpOdQ8-V8365vxA9gQETLBtZg O’Shea was also quizzed about his interest in potentially taking on more management duties – like Wally Buono, Cal Murphy and others before him – but wouldn’t even entertain that thought. “I’ve never been in a position and been thinking about another position,” he said. “You’ve heard me say it 100 times if I’ve said it once: as a player I never thought about being a coach. I never critiqued coaches; I never did anything like that. I was, ‘You’re the coach. You tell me what to do. I do it.’ “I have my role and I solely focus on my role. I really do. And I don’t even entertain ideas of other roles because that’s not where I’m at right now. I try to stay as present as possible. To me, that makes it pretty easy.”3 points- Canadian Politics

3 pointsThis. And that 4th quarter possession that ended with Prukop's brutal pick sums it up, IMO. How do you watch your tailback break off a 13-yard run and think "let's run an ostensibly complicated passing play on first down using our backup QB?" It boggles the mind.3 points- Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season

3 pointsWell, I did tell my nephew before the game that if we were going to lose, it will be by one point and during the game Leggs will have missed a point after. Lots of blame to go around, but field goals inside the 40 should be nigh automatic. I think that is why many are putting a disproportionate amount of blame on Leggs.3 points- Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
This is exactly it. People were worried about the D, they maybe were worried about kicking but no one thought the offense would be as inept as they were and that's the game right there. The problem here is some people will never be happy no matter what the kicker does and those people need to be told they are wrong.3 points- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

3 pointsThe missed convert prevented us from going into OT & of course we don't know what would have happened if we had. There are place kicker gurus who work with college & pro kickers. The Bombers would be wise to invest in sending Liegghio to one of these kicking coaches in Arizona or California. Or wherever they do their kicking camps. Back in the day both Trevor Kennerd & Bob Cameron used to spend time during the off season in Arizona with kicking & punting coach Gary Zauner who is still working with pro punters, kickers & long snappers in Arizona. If I'm Walters, the more work & quality coaching Liegghio can get this off season, the better.3 points- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

2 points@Noeller and @Mark H.make some great points. Leggs gets singled out yet the offense played poorly all game including: Buck's playcalling Collaros's play the entire game The OL giving up 4 sacks and allowing pressure the entire game Some drops by the receivers and then on special teams issues with kick coverage and while they played well overall the inability to stop a back up QB scambling by the D and the lack of turnovers that we've seen in the past.2 points- Canadian Politics

2 pointsAm I overthinking this and being unnecessarily paranoid?... But looking back on our last two playoff runs... The Bomber haven't played a good, complete game in any of those playoff games... 2021 West Final against Sask, played a bad game and scraped out a win.... 2021 Grey Cup, played bad three quarters but took over for one quarter and pulled it off... 2022 West Final, played an OK game and made enough plays when it counted to win... 2022 Grey Cup, simply didn't play very good and lost... We still walk away with one Grey Cup in the last two years... but it's a bit of a troubling trend2 points- 2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

2 points6 pages in on a thread that says in the title "Don't Look back" yet that is exactly the theme of discussion. Looking back and complaining about the GC loss, absolutely it sucks but what do we need for next year to make that happen? One is going to argue a new kicker, others will defend the current and back we go in to the past. Indulge me for a moment for one "final" look back. Leading up to the game the common theme was that TO would have to score 30plus to even be in the game as our offense was going to score more. Guess what... Offense stunk, as bad as the defense looked they held them under the magic 30 number. Our offense didn't get it done they way they have all season. Book closed, move on. No one player bares the brunt of this failure and to a man I believe the team feels this way. They win as a team / lose as a team. Why to we need to go all "Ballsy" and need a scapegoat? This is still a team that is the class of the league from the guy that cleans the dressing room to the top office in the building, let's remember who we are and who we support. No one in that organization is looking to blame any one person, why must we? Can't we be at least as good as the team we cheer for?2 points- Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
