nice kickoff by Mourtada, right on the 5 yard line and tucked between the numbers and the sideline. yikes Alford, you are going to eat it in the film room.

ah here it is. https://www.cfl.ca/games/2338/bc-lions-vs-winnipeg-blue-bombers Leggett pick is around 2:03. This was a corker of a game. Nichols and Jennings were both at their career bests, Rory K threw a TD pass, Burnham was over 200 yards, and the good guys won in a nailbiter. I miss these kinds of games.

one of my favorite bomber plays from the Canadian Mafia era is a pick by Randle or Leggett from 2016ish. Every bomber on the field except for the far corner threw at least one block on the return, some guys multiple blocks. It was just an absolute freight train of Blue n' Gold flying roaring down the field. I've posted it here before, wonder if I can find it again. If I had more time I'd do a Block of the Week feature because that's part of the game that I don't see highlighted enough, especially with the blocking receivers we have. Adams in particular eats em up.

Joe Pop made a living catching Brock heaters in heavy traffic for first downs. The first pick of my 13-year-old self. Odell Willis. I'll always remember the note of disgust in Knuckles call on that play. "He dropped it. He just. dropped. it."

Week 10 Ottawa @ Toronto No poem for this game.. I would prefer to pretend it did not happen.

Blue sked is unfair! We get three games against the team the redblacks beat.

Ottawa playing inspired weds night ball -- Evans looks crisp on those QB draws, the D is balling out.

that terrible throw into double coverage gets Bo Levi pulled, Maier out there to get the save...

just like the early game, some drama emerging here late...

Fajardo got no sling nasty.

I like em. dig the nice bright red throwback red, pops way better than the ugly dark blackish red they normally wear.

what? overtime? I love this league.

some late drama emerging. Go Als!

good lord Hamilton, you're facing a wounded QB behind a patchwork OL and you rush 3? Even on a 2nd-and-12, that seems like way underplaying your cards.

not yet .. but what quarter did I take place in? let me see what I can do...

need to make a gif of Stanback bullying Simoni Lawrence.

I know, right? by my count they ran 48 offensive plays. 7 were runs. zero attempt at a run game and a soft pass rush that exposes their young secondary all night long. Some coaching malpractice in orange tonight. Sure we're strong on the lines, but BC didn't even attempt to challenge that. Tells me they surrendered before kickoff.

HH Mourtada. like DoD said, baby steps.

Week 9 Bombers at BC rename the Bombers? they more closely resemble a battering ram.

my next jersey is a BATTLE 34

Wilson looked blocked out on that play but he just disregarded the blocker. nice.

baby steps hah! gmta!

damn I am way behind, gotta restart the stream...

love how Bailey plays that comeback route, he catches the ball seven yards downfield, turns around four yards downfield, runs straight ahead back to seven yards downfield. Doesn't do any useless lateral running.

swarm to the ball! love to see it.
