Grey Cup Game Day Thread. Let's Go!!
In 2019 I watched the game in a nervous and quieter optimism. Got loud when good things happened (obviously) and then in the second half I didn't celebrate until there was almost no time on the clock. Actually, I think I was just in disbelief, like it wasn't real. I can see this year going much the same way.

Grey Cup - Game Week Thread
I just think they've all but given up getting a straight answer from O'Shea. As Mike Kelly would say.. It's all handled internally. Osh just has a better way of saying it.

It really does seem that his roots are here and he may not want to move his family away right now. Would take some special circumstances

East Final GDT - Argonauts vs Alouettes
As someone who has a movember mustache and got season tickets in 2005 that was a roller coaster for me. (though I was a Bomber fan well before that year)

East Final GDT - Argonauts vs Alouettes
Kelly had so many wide open receivers this year. I wonder how well he will do next year when they can't afford quite as good a team around him. Do the Argos have the same culture that allows them to keep a lot of vets around? Im guessing no. But we shall see

East Final GDT - Argonauts vs Alouettes
A segment of their beat reporters think that because this is Kelly's first year as starter and that he hasnt played football for a while should contribute to the MOP nod. They are clueless.

Does BC want to go even more toward never running the ball? I think Harris' roll with the Argos is just about perfect for him. Sounds like he is done though

I have to imagine that Fajardo is going to be throwing a lot of screens and swing passes against us. I think Parker and Houston are up to the challenge.

GDT - Western Final - Bombers vs Lions
Right? On many plays he had some time to throw the ball. Speaks to the DBs and the Bombers controlled rush. You knew the rush was going to get there, but they were very disciplined

That's good, we will need these guys to continue to play at this level next week. Do it for Biggie

It was the defense. They are locked in.

Thanks for the backup 😁. Argo fans/media are saying some super ridiculous things these days.

CFL Award Nominee Finalists
Agreed. Some say Kelly is still standing behind his O-line since last game. He has had days back there. Props to the Argos O-line. No clue if Mustard was the best on an individual level.

1st Round Of Playoffs: Division Semi-Finals Week
I would agree. 16-2 is impressive no matter which way you cut it. Argos managed to win some games where they could have easily let overconfidence get in the way. But only playing the other top teams once each and only one of those in a meaningful game makes for a questionable strength of schedule. You have to think that there would be another loss or two on the season if they played Winnipeg and BC a few more times.

Maybe Betts gets the award for the ability to speak French.

3 stars plus hh turning cowtown info browntown
At this point we either keep Dru Brown or we get a 1st round pick to trade his negotiation rights. I'd much rather keep him but the alternative is a good consolation. There's going to be multiple teams wanting to go after him.

3 stars plus hh 3rd pre season game
The book is out on how to defend Ford and it seemed like we had no problem doing it too. Eugene Lewis was a big factor for the Elks though

Elks @ West Division Champs: The Game (that no longer matters) Day Thread
Parker hadn't been perfect but he's out there trying to make plays. And that doesn't mean selling out for a pick. Sometimes he does bite a bit but then he's able to recover. He's also able to tackle which Rose can't do. He will get better. There is no way I'm taking him out of the lineup when Houston is back.

3 stars plus hh 3rd pre season game
Looking at the yardage would make you wonder how we ended up with 45 points. Drawing penalties and defense kept the field flipped in our favour. Brady was of course, amazing. But when all of our starters were out, Dru Brown quietly went 7/7 for 94 yards and 2 TDs

Consistently getting called for PI when receivers run into us

FNF Stamps at Lions GDT
Barely did anything. BC imploded. Agreed. Also overrated. Does BC even play the run? I've never seen a DE with less responsibility of contain. He is fast, ill give him that. Allows him to track down a QB after running 15 yards into the backfield.

Elks @ Bombers: Week Of Thread
Maybe. But the NHL season is 82 games long and even the best teams don't show up sometimes. And fan engagement at hockey games is **** tier. Fans play a real part in a football game

Blue Bombers - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
My comment about Schoen might still be true but it isn't going to be related to this Bryce Mitchell guy I guess. I legitimately had no idea who was on our PR and got excited that someone was promoted to the active roster.
