Mike Benevides Fired
anyone else get the feeling that Glenn has started his last CFL game after that performance last Sunday? Can't see anyone bringing him on board in lieu of developing young talent...

Riderfans so angry they're fighting over dead guy now LOL
Oooo! Better pre-order tickets for that one Probably a good idea before it leaves theatres 2 days later and goes straight to VHS

Esks sign Justin Goltz
Come on.... Goltz is a Snickers guy!

Semi Final Sunday
Especially if Braley can sell the Argos this offseason.... Don't think its about the money to him!

Esks sign Justin Goltz
ha ha ha! I guess Max Hall wasn't allowed back across the border!

Take a Miracle for Reilly to play in WSF
Who is this "league source"... Wouldn't be the first time an injury rumour was floated out about a marquee player the week of a playoff game! My guess is he's practicing by Thursday or Friday. Even with no reps... Reilly is a gamer and would be ready to go!
-
Lulay activated
I can't possibly see him playing this week, or at all this season for that matter! I think this is just a tactic to maybe have Montreal prep for both... His shoulder is done, and I'd be shocked if he was back next year as their starter without someone else in there competing for the starting spot! Anyone think he'll actually play? I haven't heard much on his injury since he went down against Ottawa.

Playoff Prediction Thread - With Grey Cup Winner
Eskies/Als is the way I see it going too!

Favourite team after the Bombers
I'd say Lions because I have a bunch of friends and family who are Lions fan, and it's the city I've seen the most games outside of Winnipeg! We've had a history of trading players with them, and like someone else said, would like to see Glenn get a cup! Always felt bad about how Kelly ran him out of town, even when he was our best option! Harris is from here too! Really though, so long as the Riders lose, I don't care who wins the cup!

O'Shea Still Sees No Problems
I miss the ol' Mike Kelly responses..... not talking about it, non-issue, handled internally. Hope O'Shea busts one of those out before season's end! haha

Would You Rate Willy 5th Best?
hey rag on me all you want for putting Crompton ahead of Willy.... but don't put Mitchell at #1 and expect me to take your seriously. He's a bi-product of a great offence, propped up by an awesome running game. Bo Levi has managed games well, but hasn't done anything that makes him jump off the map ahead of everyone else. In MY order: 1. Ray 2. Reilly 3. Mitchell 4. Glenn 5. Durant 6. Crompton 7. Willy 8. Collaros 9. Burris But... you can't truly rate just a QB's pure ability. You have to have a good team around you to get everything rolling. Durant & Collaros could both be higher on this list, but by virtue of injury, Collaros needs to work his way back up, and Durant is a proven QB (although, I still don't think an outstanding one!).

Negatrons, Gloomers & Homers
WERE? 12 losses = 66% of the schedule! Those numbers are bang on! Haha
-
Drew Willy
He'll be fine.... He, like many of us just want this season over with. Chalk it up to experience and a poor Oline, and build from there! If he lets this season bother him, he'll flop. I don't see it going that way though! He'll have some new hogs up front next season and will continue to develop.

Stampeder vs Bombers Radio Ad
now seeing them lose the Western Final will be even sweeter!

Mike O'Shea's MOP
Hajrullahu for my money was the most consistent player we had all season!
-
Would You Rate Willy 5th Best?
well you're going to have 2-3 maybe 4 more times to watch Crompton this season.... you tell me that after the season is done. Again... I like Willy, but I also think that Crompton is starting to settle in, and is looking quite good back there. Based on wins alone, I give Crompton the edge at this point. More wins in half the games, hard to argue with... oh, and I hate the Als...

25th Year
are you saying Mike Kelly isn't going to coach in the CFL again?

Bob Young Comments on CFL Officiating - Not Good Enough
there's also a huge difference between pointing out an opposing player's tendency to a ref, especially when it is an infraction, than being down at the goal line when you're not even a part of the coaching staff! Why Barker is even on the field is strange!?
-
Would You Rate Willy 5th Best?
Crompton has started 8 games and is 7-1 as a starter.... if you look at his attempts & completions, they are roughly half of what Willy's are with more yardage, and more importantly, wins. I like Willy, and I think he's got great potential to be a starter here for a long time (with the right pieces around him), I just think there's other young QBs this year who have progressed just as well, and in some cases better than Willy... again, with a better supporting cast!
-
Bombers sign NI receiver Ezra Millington
If he's better than Poblah... Free is good! What a waste of a draft pick Kito was...
-
Would You Rate Willy 5th Best?
I think I'd bump Crompton ahead of Willy at this point... He's showing a lot of poise, and since he came in in the second half against us in August, all he's done is put up wins!
-
Neal Philpot
Not in the slightest... For the first time in over 10 years, I'm actually happy with our stable of quarterbacks!

Neal Philpot
Is he on anyone's neg list!?

Drew Willy to start season finale
I'm going to give O'Shea the benefit of the doubt, and guess that WIlly will get just under a half to play, and show something better than Saturday. Hopefully they let Marve finish up after that. If Willy plays the whole game, that's going to tell us more about O'Shea and his unwillingness to deviate from the plan!
-
Why no Marve?
I can't remember which year it was, but Calvillo was having a tough time getting his offence going and Trestman pulled him aside and made him watch a couple series from the sidelines to get a different look. Other coaches do it..... Why, when Willy failed to put any sort of a decent drive together (that wasn't aided by BC penalties), wouldn't O'Shea sit him aside for a couple series to have a peek? He was clearly having trouble. Is his 'confidence' that fragile that he couldn't take it? Seems O'Shea wants to protect Drew at all costs, including with the game on the line. I honestly think Marve could have helped wi.n that game. This is more about O'Shea & Willy's dualing incapability to pull the trigger, than saying we lost cause Marve didn't play! #16 better start in Calgary though!
