Bombers at Lions GDT
Fred Penner lived across the street from some family friends of mine growing up. Great people. He lives his gimmick in the best possible way.

Blue Bombers - 2024 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
If they really want to get Haba on, why not take out Karamoko? If the answer is they desperately must have 9 exclusively ST players, Haba in and Adams out as a single move is a pretty big downgrade. There’s just no sound reasoning for doing that.

FNF Als V The Gappers
Not so much a stab in the back imo, more of a case of the Als needing to choose the more skilled or more promising player. Same with Adams, it’s not a stab in the back. Guy had a terrible game, then got hurt (like he always does). BC’s trying for a home GC. If I was a Lions fan, I’d be livid if they passed on Rourke because of “loyalty” to VA.

Right? There’s no salary cap anymore, if there ever really was one. This marketing money stuff reminds me of Fluties “Personal Service” Contract in the 90s.

They could bring Murphy on, switch out a Hallett or one of the ST backers. I just don’t think Haba for Adams is worth it. Mind you I’ve never been a huge Haba fan.

Neither. I’m expecting the Bomber D to play well enough to win though.

I wouldn’t be surprised over anything, I’m just not sure it’s a foregone conclusion he’ll rip it up against us.

Just saying, last time Bombers went into BC against this hyped up QB, Rourke got Pourked.

I don’t buy that either. Not that I agree with Adams to the PR, but playing devils advocate I think they’re just trying to get a speed rusher on the edge. I still can’t think of a good reason not to take Josh Johnson off and just bring Haba into the mix. Respectfully, yes.

I hope BC gets great attendance and loses a bunch of high scoring games because their defence sucks.

They have 2 solid American guys who can push the pocket from the middle and you sit one of them but keep Josh Johnson on the roster? That’s an extremely illogical move. I’d say foolish even.

That’s fair. I mean, I follow NDSU but I couldn’t tell you how their linemen would translate to the pros. I’ll have games on for background noise too, but I mean for someone to say they sit there and watch MAC (or in my case FCS) games and have intimate knowledge of their o-line without being an actual scout for a living? Come on, who’s got that kind of time?

I’d be impressed if anyone on here legit watched a U of Buffalo game

To me Harris is the quintessential average CFL QB. He only worries me if we’re trading FGs all game. Guy’s great at putting together drives up to the redzone.

I think Tyrell Ford could give him a run for MOC this year. Wilson is the most likely MOR nominee (and maybe league wide) though personally I think it should be Adams or Woods.

FNF Als @ Ti Cats GDT
I’ve thought they do this for years now, not necessarily just the CC but in general.

SNF Elks @ Riders GDT
Don’t worry, they’ll get 30k (with 25% Bomber fans) on Labour Day and TSN will slobber all over them like they sell out every game

GDT- Bombers vs BC
The only change might be the quarterback and it won’t be a positive one for them.

3 stars plus hh bc sucks again!
Yeah since we justifiably rip on a lot of the roster management and coaching decisions, we have to give credit when it’s due. Randolph at guard, using 8 Canadians instead of 11, getting Lucky on. All good decisions. I’d hope moving forward it doesn’t take 2 awful losses and injuries to get them making the right choices

Few thoughts after skimming though again. On the failed BC onside punt, they never announced what the penalty call (or picked up flag) was after the TV timeout. I didn’t notice BA in a bad way for the first time all season. Garbutt is worthy of being so highly touted. That catch Wilson laid out for could have been an easy tuddy if Collaros hits him in stride. Randolph plays right to and even a little past the whistle. He found extra contact on a lot of running plays. I think he’s the guy. Ayers knocked out a guy who outweighs him by a good 50 pounds, crazy. Bombers are allowing points like it’s 2021. Given our record, it’s even more incredible. I don’t feel sorry for VA. Swing another helmet, clown. This is more of an indictment of current QBing in the CFL but you’re right. Tre Ford maybe this off-season, not today. Same with Taylor Powell, and that’s even more of a maybe. Big no to any of those other guys. Brown in a New York minute though, I’ll die on that hill.
