To each his own.  The Smith/Dunigan combo is my favorite.

Last place team in the West? 😋

In the end, O'Shea's 2 time refusal to settle for easy FGs and to gamble on 3rd down is what gifted the game to the Lions. O'Shea out coached Wally and then out smarted himself by being an overconfident gambler.

Wally made some dumb coaching decisions too. Challenging a 10 yard play. Not calling time out on the 1 with 17 seconds in the half cost BC another play at the end of the half.

Jones gets fired reunites with Hervey in BC

Its like having multiple arrests is one of the things Jones looks for when scouting.

Do you guys really think Chris Jones even wants Durant on the Riders team? He was correct in his previous assessment of Durant when let him go to the Als and nothing has changed.
Lets be real here. The emergence of Strevler would likely not have happened if Durant hadn't retired, so it turns out that every penny that Durant did not deserve to keep turned out to be the best $70k in cap money that the Bombers have ever spent.

Never mind his opinion about Drew Willy, if the Als coach knew anything about the CFL, he would not have signed on with the Als.

Absolutely, don't give anyone any chalk board material. Don't say their receivers suck and are easy to cover or anything like that

It is a civil matter, not criminal law, but likely will be settled out of court. Guy's lawyer will meet with B.C. Place's insurance claim adjuster who at best might offer to rescind the B.C. Place imposed one year ban and then probably with conditions such as agreeing not to consume alcohol while at games  . Any cash payout would for starters need a doctor's report detaining injuries found upon examination.
There also could be a cash payout to make the guy's lawyer go away if BC Place or the Lions feel the case is bringing bad publicity to the team. Or it could be the opposite if it is felt that paying a drunk trespasser goes against public opinion.
OTOH we live in a country whose government thought it was necessary to pay $10M to a terrorist murderer because when he was caught and tortured by the Americans, Canada did not try to intervene on behalf of the terrorist.

Assaulted while in the commission of the crime of trespassing & public intox.
Offsetting penalties.

What's his weight?

ROD PENISON would be better.

Riders are thin depth wise at a few positions but not at WR/SB and until they can get a DB up to speed, Carter is a short term fix. Riders likely plan on playing a lot of Man to Man and Carter can run with anyone.

Well, my point is that Bombers should have been more desperate for a CFL experienced backup once Durant retired instead of only trying to do something after Nichols got injured. I never inferred that Gale was better than Durant.
Edit: Actually Bombers didn't do anything re: a CFL experienced backup until 3rd string QB Ross got injured so it took 2 injured QBs to actually do anything...weird.

Or Westerpeople if you asked Trudeau.

I am not sure about the Riders ranking, but Bombers at 7th with a starting QB that has never even seen a regular season CFL game live, might be a generous ranking. And O'Shea didn't help his QBs in pre season because like Chris Jones he spent all the pre season games evaluating and no time giving his inexperienced QBs game time playing with the starters.

Good rant.  You do realize the power ranking change every week don't you?  As I said, THIS WEEK, WITHOUT NICHOLS, where do you think the Bombers should have been ranked?.  Personally I don't take any stock in the power rankings, I just find it funny that you are upset with where your team sits when you have no qb

Drama sells, so look to the CFL's reigning drama queen, Darian Durant to be on a TSN panel in the near future, followed by Kavis once he gets fired.

I think this may be the closest thing to a compliment Rod Black has ever received on this board.  Moderator, is this allowed?

And like watching a train wreck, we won't be able to look away.  Brilliant!
