Random Jets News
So they are postponing games in Winnipeg until the pandemic restrictions end on the 11th, and they are postponing the Calgary game. But they are still crossing the border into the US for Vegas and Phoenix. So is the shutdown really for COVID or is it the economics of playing In an empty arena?

Unless O’Shea and Walters feel he has move to give, and have more insight than the fans do.

That stat might upgrade from “useless” to “meaningless” if Ferguson actually defined what a “big time pass” was. Given where Collaros ranked, just seems like more valuation for the LaPo ball control/protection offensive scheme Buck inherited and expanded on. 😁

It would not surprise me if the majority of the “insider” quotes are just lifted from fan sites like this one and repackaged by the 3Down staff. I have seen this sentiment about Harris being replaced by Oliveira and Augustine here and elsewhere , and most of the “hot takes” are just random opinions rather than actual news.

2021 Blue Bombers Season
In my defence, this list was originally done in January of 2018, so this play did not exist at the time. You may want to send a letter to TSN as well. They did their top 100 plays of the year on Christmas Eve, and that interception did not make the top 100.

2021 Blue Bombers Season
An interesting debate to be had on that one, for sure. Covered this ground a bit in a past thread: Not sure where I would rank the Wilson pick at the moment in my list. Don’t think I would put it at #1 right now, but it may age well and be in contention for sure. But one thing is for sure, to be a truly all-time great play, it needs a nickname that defines it without further elaboration. And “the immaculate interception” is already taken, so no go there. Maybe “the tip drill”?

And “with Chris Jones’ Elks on the rise, Saskatchewan going all in on hosting the Grey Cup , and the perennial Stampeder playoff appearance, will the aging Bombers be on the outside looking in this coming November?” By guest writer Jamie Nye, on loan from cfl.ca- 2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition

But certainly could have said it just as well but more briefly, lol. 😁 Thanks.- 2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition
Very astute point on Matson and his ability to fill a hole. Had forgotten about him as an in-house option. Provided he can return from injury fully repaired. Then again, it feels like 90% of the league is at free agent status this year, so pretty much anyone is up for grabs right now if a hole needs filling. (Yes an exaggeration but boy lots of unsigned people).- 2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition

Maybe ask Speedflex that question. He’s the one that wanted citations for my work. Lol, I joke……- Riders didn't win another cup.
That’s quite the bar they have set for themselves. Oops. Too soon, Rider nation?- 2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition
Yeah, but we lost Sayles and Rose in 2019 and Walters found Alford and Nichols to more than adequately replace them. We have stockpiled Grey and Tui on our o-line as back-ups who could slide in. And if Lawler goes, maybe that frees up cash to take a run at bringing Lucky Whitehead back (his West Final appearance in the stands has me hopeful he is pining to come back). All in all, my faith in Walters’ and our scouting staff’s track records have me less concerned than I might otherwise be.- Bye Bob (Irving Retirement)
