looking ahead-LDC
We just beat the Esks. with Streveler...I think Edm. is a better team with a better qb....No reason why we can't knock them off in their own barn

Hamilton @ BC GDT
IF Lions are sold ...there will be major changes in lotus land...I think everyone and everything gets reviewed and start fresh....Just a brutal situation right now

GDT - Bombers vs Esks
I was a little apprehensive when I saw the rain coming down and that first set of downs when Streve lost the handle....I thought ...uh oh...this could be a long night for the kid BUT he pulled it together and did his thing....The esks. had to respect his running ability and along with Andrew he had them off balance for most of the night....Harris had some pretty nice holes to cut through as well...credit the o line guys..On one play Streveler had everyone fooled on a keeper ...Even the camera guy was following Andrew while Chris was taking it up the field on a nice fake...I think the kid will grow as he gets more game experience and all of the angst a few fans were immersed in will all but disappear...Excellent game by the team overall...On to Labour Day and a meeting with the toothless melon heads😁

Its Time To Hand The Ball To Willie Jefferson
C'mon down to Winnipeg.... Sincerely Willy Jefferson

3 stars plus hh
Quite a signing was Willy Jefferson....Riders lament everyday about us snagging one of the best fa's this year, which was worth it alone.....Sure proved his worth last night did 'ol wingspan' and have left the Esks. in shock in their own backyard....Luv'd every minute of it....

GDT - Bombers vs Esks
Our D can play lights out and they will most likely have to, to compensate for our ,what appears to be our weakened offence....My thought are is that we will sucker them into thinking Streveler is just a 'run guy' and he'll stretch the field on them, as well, kill them with intermediate plays....If the D can put solid pressure on T. Harris we might just come away with 2 pts.....This could be a very pivotal game for us in the west and will look pretty good going into Labour Day and the Banjo..Here's hopin'

NFL Coming to Winnipeg for Preseason Game
I'm a geographer as well......since elementary school and back then I could name all of the American states....I doubt their grade schoolkids even know what continent Canada belongs to........but I digress

It's time to hand the ball to McGuire
That's Mr. Peanut...... just give him a top hat and a cane...On second thought Mike Reilly has the hat thing cornered.....BUT Matt might have use for the cane....................eventually

Regular Season Bomber News
Book ends....and definitely bad news for opposing teams with those two monsters on the D line.....Defence is rounding out nicely

It's time to hand the ball to McGuire
Matt was a lot younger when he broke in with Edm.....Broke is the correct term as he broke his leg the first year....then managed to tear up his leg the next year causing him to lose the season....Is he injury prone?? I think the jury is out on that one and if you look at how he's come up nic'd since joining us.....hmmmmm you decide...Is it bad luck or bad bones...Look at the career of another qb....albeit the past ...Damon Allen for one...The guy was immune to injury so much so that he earned the nick name 'Gumby'..Some people are just built different and if you end up in the right category...longevity follows...I know which category Nichols belongs in and ...'brittle' is a descriptive word in that category

It’s time to hand the ball to Kevin Glenn
That's a for sure....They have great chemistry and know exactly how to get it done....I'd also like to see Harris hit the hole a couple of times and then give them a taste of Streve.... Wear the opposition D out...then give them a shot of Woli.. Road to success
-
It’s time to hand the ball to Kevin Glenn
Bennett would be alright....He certainly knows the way between Sask. and Wpg. BUT the melon heads would probably want some ridiculous compensation...We definitely should have another qb. in town besides Streve and McGuire....Don't like anything back east sooooooo we're in a binder....Kevin Glenn is not the answer ...Going to be an interesting call by Walters

Nichols Injury
D's win championships ...that's the line that goes around AND if that's the case we stand as good a chance as anyone in the west to win it all....Nichols going down is going to hurt (probably hurting him a lot more than us) but we do have talent behind centre as well....Used properly I think we can hang with the rest of the west...and I'm sure glad that Streveler is built like a brick poop house cuz I don't want to see the curse take another guy out...We're kind of jumping to conclusions but if Matt's shoulder is indeed totally separated, then I think that's all she wrote for him in 19'...Just when everything seemed to be going along quite smoothly along come the bloody Lemonater...Anyway onward and upward....next man up and all the support he needs...No other way to go

LOL/....geez I didn't know you flew bi-planes
-
It's time to hand the ball to McGuire
Was picked pretty easy and was looping toward the sideline....but definitely deflected.... Maybe it wouldn't have been deflected if it had more on it...Anyway why are we arguing semantics about a bad play we don't want to ever see again
-
It's time to hand the ball to McGuire
Throwing off balance and on his back foot looked like to me......produces a ball with little velocity...But you see it your way...I see it mine
-
It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
Watch out or he'll hit you with his purse
-
It's time to hand the ball to McGuire
Yeah it was deflected because it was a floater and thrown off balance....you knew that right...It was a poorly thrown ball...BUT to be fair I haven't seen Streve throw that many bad ones and he'll learn to just chuck it into the seats when pressured like that and off balance...In fact that's what I thought he was trying to do when it was deflected...Might have been better to have run and just eat it

That last line says a lot and I hope Paul and Chris are talking things over promptly IF Matt can't go

2019 CFL Season: Around the League
Would that be wrestling/.....The guy looks to me to be an opportunist....if you're winning I give it a 100 percent....if you're the T.O. arenogoods then I float...Not my type of player
-
It's time to hand the ball to McGuire
The one pass that Streveler chucked up that was picked looked gawd awful....He better lose that kind of play...Off balance ...there was nothing on the ball...just a floating beach ball headed for the waiting arms of a defender,...I could have pic'd that one...For the most part he looked alright and I know he can be better....How much better...I think we're about to find out As far as McGuire goes....we did keep him around for a reason...The coaching staff has seen something more than just a smooth qb.....He did beat out Bennett for the third spot so that along with his 'smooth' play might just get him a shot IF Streveler craps the bed....Experience would be a problem................ so here we go again

Odds and Sods - BC Lions vs Blue Bombers
When we're in the red zone close to the goal line that's Streveler time....Why Nichols is trying to run it in from close proximity (more than a yard) doesn't make sense when we have Streve as an option...I know Nichols did squeeze one in from the ONE but otherwise I think he should defer to Streveler
-
It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
I think Streve has regressed a bit also...AND due to the fact he doesn't get concentrated game time ...Getting shuffled in and out and not considered the starter can be a reason....That is his role however BUT when he's going to be asked to be 'the man' it could reflect in his play in a more positive manner..Just a hunch but I think we have to see what he's really got when he has to carry the club
