Winnipeg should be a forever lock for having an NHL team. There are simply not enough U.S. markets that can compare as far as support goes.

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/dumb-luck-274994621.html Interesting article. What do you guys think?

Jets get a lot more respect from the Winnipeg media. Odd considering how pathetic the Jets have been.

There was big time pressure on Willy from Marshay Green. That's why the ball was under thrown and probably why he threw into double coverage.

Some of you should seek out therapy. Riders are an obsession for a lot of you.

Does the Winnipeg media hate the Bombers? How are they with the Jets?

Als defence can look unbeatable at times and then like total garbage later in the same game. Montreal ain't winning anything with Straight outta Crompton and the Esks are far too reliant on a reckless Reilly.

A lot of guys on the top 20 list will be getting serious NFL looks at the very least. This is one of the things that makes the CFL draft so interesting.

I apologize for making your football forum more interesting. I also apologize for attempting to use humour and thus being "hated" by some folks on here who are way too serial for their own good.

The problem is trading Watson will not yield a 1st round pick so why bother? It is a deep draft so if the Bombers could get a 2nd rounder for Watson from Ottawa they would be all over it (Bombers). Watson is okay but he is hurt a lot and hasn't done much.

Exactly. The Lions talk a lot and make a lot of promises but they are toothless and unable to deliver. Benevides is good for a few crucial coaching errors and Kevin Glenn is a journeyman QB who never wins when it really matters.

BC is big on shooting their mouths off with very little to back it up. The Lion offence scares nobody. If the Bombers can slow the Lion running attack and do okay with Special Teams they will fold. I "guarantee" the Lions are toothless wonders on offence.

Learn to embrace and love the hate. It is there because the Riders are a winning team. See... it's comments like that that really rub me the wrong way. Makes me gag, literally. Hate whomever you want. I'd rather cheer for a winning team that everyone hates then the loveable losers. Have fun cheering for the hated loser with no qb I like the long term prospects of the Riders as well. They have been built the way a team should be; along the lines. Plus, with all the awesome support they will continue to thrive. The good news for the Bombers? With IGF they will become a choice destination and will start to make some serious scratch. Great days ahead for the Bombers. Finally the Riders will have a worthy Prairie rival because the Stamps are November bed crappers.

I would rather live through a century of continuous Roughrider Grey Cup championships than see a single Toronto Stanley Cup. Leaf fans are way more insufferable than Roughrider fans. They are the same persons. Except the Riders actually win. What an angry crew you guys are. Cheer up the Bombers are good and getting better.

Kind of like a small Winnipeg without all the potted plant crappers eh?

Lions are arrogant twerps.

Lions have a brutal receiving corps. Likely the worst in the West. Control the run and win the game.

Man, the Winnipeg media likes to raise a lot of crap regarding the Bombers. Weak sauce.

A lot of injuries happen in practices. High level teams run high tempo practices and, unfortunately, poop happens.

Learn to embrace and love the hate. It is there because the Riders are a winning team. Only because winning breeds bandwagon fans who are annoying as all hell... Truth be told I could actually find a lot to like on that team if the fan base weren't filled with such insufferable *****. For those of us who lived through years and years of utter ineptitude these are great times.

It can't be as there is a very outside chance he could be back for the play-offs. They are guaranteeing that he be ready for training camp so it must not be TJ surgery.

I honestly don't get the Grigsby hate. He's solid for just starting out.

Grigsby>Ford. Ford works "ok" in support of Allen and Messam. Really, I'd rather see Messam/Allen then Ford/Messam/Allen but it seems to be working.
