Looking Ahead: Winnipeg Vs BC
Any time Adams has struggled with consistency (drops etc) it's the result of not involving him early. I don't know if he just checks out a bit or what the deal is but it's almost as if he gets 'disinterested' at times when the ball isn't coming his way.

- Did u notice
Speaking of did you notice .. Did anyone else happen to notice Hardrick picking Nichols up off the turf after getting rocked last night? It was one of those hits were you could tell Nichols really felt it but #51 was there hauling him off the turf like a rag doll.- Did u notice
Loved the effort but I always cringe when I see receivers (especially rookie receivers) cutting back into traffic .. first thought that always goes through my mind is "Please hold onto the damn ball!"- GDT: Toronto @ Winnipeg
Why would they have overturned Lankford's return (that was pretty clear cut by comparison)?- GDT: Toronto @ Winnipeg
Have to give props to Alexander for keeping with the play when he was beaten soundly. Sometimes it's not just sound technique but hustle that can save the day in the end.- Game Day Driving Experience
Went with my daughter last night and we were there right to the end. Took us a little longer to get out of Gold lot BUT it was much more organized than even the previous week when I had to duck out a bit early. In all, was 30 minutes from car to driveway and I didn't ever feel as though I was waiting unnecessarily or that there wasn't some plan to get us out efficiently (this has been something I've felt and noted in the past, even when I've gotten out quickly).- Omar Khadr cashes in
Hyperbole from either side does nothing to advance the discussion. I would encourage anyone who is presented with an argument (or evidence) that contradicts their view to look critically at it .. research it .. find holes in it .. then present an intelligent counter argument to refute that point. The inability to reason through this is more ideological than it is political (though politics is a central theme to the ongoing discussion). It's not enough to say it's true because I believe it .. I would expect anyone with strong convictions to say that it's true because I believe it, here's why and here's where your argument falls short.- Omar Khadr cashes in
Hey guys. I'll just step in here and ask that we keep all the commentary on the topic and not each other. Gracias.- Looking Ahead: Toronto Vs Winnipeg
Well ****, we're playing against backups .. we're screwed! ;-)- Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
I think that's all the CBA allows for (but I could be wrong).- Game Day Driving Experience
Read a couple of articles today that detailed some negative driving experiences last night and wanted to put this out there for others on the forum. For my part, the drive was uneventful. Left the stadium with 3:02 remaining in the fourth (I'm nursing a torn hamstring so I need a little extra time getting to / from my car). From the time I sat in my car post game (Gold Lot) to the time I pulled into my driveway (Royalwood) was all of 14 minutes .. the only "negative" for me was some uncontrolled pedestrian crossings (by the golf course) that slowed traffic a bit. What about everyone else? Curious to hear about your experiences in light of the bet Wade made.- Some Positives
Positives for me from last night: The crowd was absolutely awesome through 30 minutes of play .. we were into the game .. the atmosphere at IGF was amazing. Winnipeg fans are passionate. The team needs to consistently deliver for them when playing at home. Normand has some under-rated hands. He's a FB who doesn't touch the ball often but he catches everything that comes to him even if he's going to get blown up. Couple of tidy grabs last night as well. The interior of the DL is fantastic this year. You don't move those guys easily and it's helped shore up our run defence in a significant way. The guy sitting two rows in front of me who completely lost his mind when O'Shea was forced to challenge that illegal contact (mugging) on Harris. You sir were bloody amazing.- Some Positives
They missed picking up a lot of delayed pressure and Nichols bore the brunt of those breakdowns.- Some Positives
With so many great breweries in Winnipeg, would it be too much to ask to partner with say .. Half Pints? Peg Beer Co? Torque? to get some descent beer on tap .. Make it happen Miller!- Stamps @ Bombers: Game Day Thread
It amazed me that's for sure.- Stamps @ Bombers: Game Day Thread
This. It's what's so disappointing for me .. we have a great turnout last night .. the largest since 2014 .. and we **** the bed .. in typical fashion.- Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
What was it that Newsome supposedly said (completely missed it)?- Who was our worst coach?
More a case of talent succeeding in spite of the head coach perhaps.- Who was our worst coach?
Rust left the team during the season .. sometime around August if I recall correctly.- Looking Ahead: Winnipeg Vs Calgary
- Bombers vs Riders GDT
Especially when you construct your team in such a way as to allow for roster flexibility .. suddenly those "traditional" NI spots are up for grabs and you aren't forced to pay / play NIs when an Import might be a better option.- Who was our worst coach?
I've always said I don't give a rats ass about the HC's personality, how he interacts with the media or how well liked he is by players .. if he wins consistently (and brings this team a championship) .. he could throat punch Bob Irving for all I care.- Who was our worst coach?
I think the only coach on that list who's ever had a co-ordinator quit / leave the team mid season was Jim Daley .. it wasn't as disheartening to watch as the Burke lead Bombers but that team was a complete shambles. How people can put Berry in the "worst" category without mentioning this guy .. have to give my head a shake.- Bombers vs Riders GDT
Our defensive line was tremendous last night, especially those interior guys. The rotation of Johnson, Nevis, Thomas was pretty solid and will only get better as the season moves along. What we need is more disciplined play from the end position. For as much as I love Westerman, he can't keep taking these selfish roughing penalties. He's developing a reputation and that doesn't do him (or the team) any favours. - Did u notice
