Winces lol...(a little light on the injury description).....the player was in distress (Faj) and he should've been pulled....AND in any event ...I don't give a rat's ass who calls the guy to the sidelines....spotter or otherwise....the players safety is ultimate and paramount....game interruption be damned

Week 2 - Champs at Ottawa lead up
Nervous nellie's here.....Funny how everyone 'assumes' Collaros has gone down the 'concuss' road even when the smell of another qb. hitting the roster is hinted......Don't think we shouldn't be concerned but reaching for the panic button is a little over the top.......

If the spotter is looking for concussion symptoms only ....okay BUT they didn't even check him out to see if that was a fact or not......He did get hit in the neck and head area so how the hell do they know it wasn't concussion....Those kinds of injuries can also occur without a direct head shot....They sure jumped on the Zack hit in a hurry and I will bet it was because of his history with concussion....doesn't mean to say that can't happen to a player 'with little or no history' of said injury....as was the case with Faj....He should have been sat by his coach for sure but when it appears they will not do that (which happened) someone has to step in....Logical guy...the spotter

2022 CFL Season - Non Back 2 Back Champs News
I'll throw one in here.....Herb Gray.....allstar and one of the best guards and defensive ends to ever suit up in BluenGold.......Frank Rigney as well

There seems to be ...let's say, a 'little uneveness' in officiating in the games played so far....Fajardo should have definitely sat for 3 plays....if anything to make sure he hadn't sustained a more serious injury.....The guy was writhing on the ground, for cripes sake, after that late hit ...The hit on Schoen was definitely a missed call and could have resulted in a serious injury...Those were blatant misses and there were a few more borderline calls missed....I know you can't expect perfection out of the refs. but for cripes sake, missing the obvious is not acceptable

hey hey guy....we're sensitive people and very protective about our place of birth....In any case I think a lot of people's noses got out of joint when anyone even suggests we don't have the best team and the best city in the country.....Remember when Dieter Brock rubbed us the wrong way about Assinboine Park and the ZOO...I think Kenny most likely thinks that now, Winnipeg and the team he left looks pretty good after that shellacking his new team took in B.C.....It's all good in any event

3 stars plus hh red black and blue
The way the running game was being shut down it's no wonder Zack took off to move the sticks....Shouldn't have happened that way if our running game is up to par.....I hope we have a different plan for the rematch in Ottawa involving our running game....Don't know if we're just not getting the holes upfront ....our O Line is still solid.... orrrrrrr our backs just aren't following the blocking.....Don' know why as they watched Andrew bulling through them often enough....Hope to see a big improvement next game
-
Rudders and Cats
You can just see Kenny on the sidelines fuming.....He was most likely thinking...'I went from a Cup winner to this dung hole'.....He most likely will shrink into a loser funk and just collect his cheque....all the while just going through the motions......What a BIG mistake Lawler made.....unless he's not in it to win it ....just pay me and play me ...... whatever.....Lions made them look like a welllll, let's see........ a Jones coached team

I don't like making excuses for players but wasn't Rose in a walking boot not long ago...Could be he's not a 100 percent

3 stars plus hh red black and blue
Jefferson/Wilson stood out...... Ellingson/Schoen were solid Dru Bown......kid came in under pressure and was as cool as they come.....We have something here for sure

Brown came in and got it done...had to be a lot of pressure and the kid came through....I hope Zack is going to be alright.....I posted before the game about qbs. taking off BUT in this case Collaros was justified....We had to pick up that first down and he saw an opening and took it....Should have slid but maybe he wouldn't have had enough to move the sticks....All in all a football play you have to make....As for Brown....he brought it....zipped the ball where it had to go which proved to be the two colours undoing....Didn't like some of those shots we were taking and not getting called....Trying to knock Schoen's head off was a huge miss by the refs....Bull$hit like that can't be part of the game,,,In any event we pulled it off ....TSN can start up Ford and drop him off at the edge of town...biased play colour man that is weak at best....Sounds half dead to me on most broadcasts....Get someone with more life tsn and that actually sees two clubs on the field

When watching the Cal. opener, I saw Bo take off and run the ball....I said to my significant other,,,,'what the hell was that....Mitchell never runs'.....He unwisely tried it again and predictably suffered a leg injury....I know our guy Zack is smarter than that , although IF he sees a nice opening, run, but for cripes sake hook slide before contact....AND I also know he's intelligent and likely won't make it a habit...You'd think that Bo would have grasped that by now

Drippin' in oil money and all they can come up with is that dump for a stadium.....Calgarians should be bloody embarassed ...worse look than that ex-premiere of theirs.....They scraped out a win but you could tell the football vibe just ain't there anymore

Week One Ottawa Vs Winnipeg
I've always admired Ellingson.....he was/is always a dependable go to guy.....Looking forward to seeing Zack and him do their thing down the field....Once the rest of our receiving crew starts to gell .....look out ...the 3 peat is on

play the Newton song already and hear how he pronounces it in a song.....pretty sure it's 'shane'...

League cuts we should take a look at
Of note also ...they have 13 guys on their pr.....you know how they luv that no...Most likely they were trying to alter that ...they just couldn't work around that number....why it took so much time.....

Preseason games
With Dunigan sporting that heavy white beard, someone came up with a good one liner..... quote..'when I first saw Matty I didn't know whether to hug him or sit on his knee' Don't know who said it but it was good for a chuckle.....Not hilarity but at least an attempt by the panel

2021/22 - CFL Offseason - Non-Back-to-Back Grey Cup Champion Thread
Streve says he's open to return north......but if he does with whom.....I'd luv to see him back in bluengold BUT can we swing it monetarily....Another club could make him a solid offer and drive his price up BUT would Chris take it over returning to his former CFL club that has a chance at a three peat......Says he's weighing out things over the next few weeks......IF no other suitors in the nfl show I'd say he's definitely heading north....Going to be an interesting wait and see

Winnipeg Blue Bombers TC 2022
ouch......now I know why some of the guys on D were wearing his number.....devastating injury/loss

Pre-Season Game 2 - Winnipeg @ Saskatchewan - Tuesday May 31
Might have been Joe alright,,,,but the wrong Joe.....it most likely was Joe Smith former back with us....I can't believe he's still out there pickin' cans

Pre-Season Game 2 - Winnipeg @ Saskatchewan - Tuesday May 31
what the deal is there is that those tools have to scrape up anything remotely positive to feed to their gullible glutoness fan base....even to the point that actually critiquing the opposition (who in this case is us and simply better) with blinders is their folly.....Simply put they can't accept the fact that we are a better club and do everything in their power to not recognize that fact.....The green guys and their fans just lap it up

3 stars plus hh battle of the backups
We have one helluva bunch of solid receivers.....I thought we had to spread the ball around a lot, so that nobody really stood out as top dog....okay Bailey but he's a shoe-in.....I hope Schoen and Whop stick around ...after that it's going to be a head scratcher who we keep....Nice problem to have though
-
3 stars plus hh battle of the backups
Brown/Prukop.....both acquitted themselves quite well.....give the edge to Brown Borsa....I really like the looks of this kid.....could be another Andrew in the making Dobson......really stood out .....what a great pic ....got to hand to Kyle and company for having the knack to find quality players

Three-peat Kickoff Countdown
