Reilly - Old News
Comparing their 1st four games makes much more sense than projecting Goltz's stats over ten games. Like others have said, Reilly's not the brightest guy in the world if he didn't think getting a big contract would mean he's the man in Winnipeg.

Burke's comments on what Hervey said about Rottier
I think you're looking too hard for reasons to complain about Burke. He's the coach, so of course he's going to have to comment on his players. He's rough around the edges, but I don't know if anything he's said is going too far. Your being an Elliott fan is, IMO, why you're still worked up about that comment.

Bombers moving to the West next year
You got 2 penalty minutes tacked on for a typo in the title. That's fair. We better get our crap together now that we'll be competing for playoff spots with good teams.

Weiner explodes on voter in public
I saw a clip on the Daily showed that caught the Jewish guy calling him a disgrace for marrying a muslim. That's what started the argument.

Pencer to start at Right Guard
Too bad Swiston is hurt. I'd love to see our top 2 OL prospects both get a chance to play.

Bombers acquire Mark Parenteau
Wasn't he Toronto's starting RG for most of last season?

Bombers acquire Mark Parenteau
As per Darren Bauming: starting OL this week is January, Greaves, Sorenson, Parenteau, Boatmen

Walters not optimistic about signing Henoc before free agency
Like how you told the truth about how Wally was using Joey Elliott? Given that he's brought in Pierce to be experience doesn't that lend some credibility to my thoughts on the matter? Doesn't that fact that he held on by a thread as the third stringer for less than half a season tell you what he thought of him? Wally want's pierce and doesn't want Elliott, doesn't that tell you something about Elliott? or more importantly the accuracy of your assesment of him? I'm asking both of you, as politely as possible, to stfu about Elliott.

Bombers acquire Mark Parenteau
Did anyone else who listened to the coaches show notice that Tim Burke really emphasized that Parenteau can play centre? It makes me wonder if they are considering moving Sorensen out to guard or tackle. No, I don't think Sorensen is losing his job. Parenteau being able to play centre means we don't have to dress Kowalczuk anymore. Pencer can play instead. I don't know if I would call it "losing his job". More like getting moved over to strengthen the right side of the line. Sorensen has tackle experience. Would be interesting to see something like January-Greaves-Parenteau-Kowalczuk-Sorensen, with Pencer as the sixth man. Not saying it's going to happen, but the way Tim Burke was talking it sure sounds like there is going to be a bit of a shuffle going on the OL. There is virtually no chance that Sorensen plays RT for us.

Bombers acquire Mark Parenteau
If that was true he wouldn't have just signed Kyle Koch to replace him. He proved he's not a centre in Sask, but he's a serviceable guard.
-
Sheets is he the real deal?
I don't think so, but it will be close. You're right that their schedule at the start of the season was much easier than it will be for the rest of the year.
-
Sheets is he the real deal?
Sheets put up close to 1,300 yards last year, and will improve greatly on that this year. So yes, he's the real deal.

Walters not optimistic about signing Henoc before free agency
He certainly wasn't the unanimous choice to be the #1 pick, but "off the board" is probably overstated. Regardless, the correct decision was made.

Walters not optimistic about signing Henoc before free agency
I've read that Taman goes out of his way to avoid his clients as well. I think that as long as he doesn't get an NFL shot he'll be back with the Bombers. He's our guy so I think our GM will be more willing to put up with the agent.

Bombers acquire Mark Parenteau
Not sure if that would be a concern for me as long as we are addressing the need by way of the draft, free agency or what have you. Rome wasn't built in a day, our o-line won't be revamped in an off-season. Look at it this way. If Parenteau is still on our roster (top 6) next season, that basically means none of our OL prospects panned out. Why couldn't Greaves, Swiston, & Pencer all be on the roster at the same time as Parenteau?

Halftime show
So bad it was good was my feeling about it. The guy on the fiddle trying to sing "Achy Breaky Heart" while his finger was in his mouth was another a highlight of the performance.

You're trying too hard.

Halftime show
Who else loved the tuba solo during their cover of Fred Penners' "Sandwiches"? Best halftime show ever?

Buck Pierce traded for Akeem Foster
That, of course, makes the assumption that he'll be the 3rd stringer in BC for the rest of the season. The logical conclusion to be drawn from this trade is that he'll be the #2 qb once he's up to speed with the playbook.

Beasts and Bums
The secondary was okay because Durant was under so much pressure. I can't honestly think of a single play Suber made today that warranted any praise. What I don't like about him is how he seems to arrive late and then pile-on head-first just to make his hair extensions flop around. He might think it looks cool but I think it looks ridiculous. He had a diving pass knockdown in the 3rd quarter against Dressler.
