  1. That's a stretch... he's no superstar... but he's absolutely good enough to be a player in the league...

    Funny thing is the pre-season of 2013 is, I believe, the year we had Rene Peredes in camp... and he was justifiably cut b/c Palardy looked like he was the future...
  3. yes, but what if I "imagined" the ball bouncing in after hitting the goal post??
  4. that's true... but the problem for the Elks is they likely need about 5 or 6 of those weird plays to have any chance... this Bombers teams doesn't make that many mistakes...

    I absolutely agree.... just having some fun with TrueBlue's comment...

    When the season is going this well… we gotta find something to complain about 😆

    Bring in another international??
  8. That was one of Taman’s specialties…
  9. It’s funny… if not for a goal line TD against BC (which I never saw an angle of Cody actually getting in)… the riders would be in fourth right now…
  10. There’s obviously a back story here that I’m not familiar with…
  11. All this talk about hard hitting bombers safeties… I’m surprised no one has mentioned Kyries Hebert…
  12. I wouldn’t write off BLM just yet… I remember a veteran QB who looked done at the beginning of 2019… a change of scenery made all the difference…. Could see him in Toronto or Ottawa next year…
  13. I have to disagree slightly… let’s say they clinch in the next two weeks… then they have a bye, 3 meaningless games, and another bye… and finally a meaningful game after about 5 of 6 weeks… that’s a long time between important games…
  14. This has to be a joke… not possible for someone to be this ignorant… is it? “Success” against this D is scoring 1 TD, 16 points and piling up some meaningless yardage… I’ll take that as a “bad day” for the D…

    I’m gonna have to back goalie on this one… some people making a mountain out of a mole hill… it was a simple reference to a children’s movie… nothing malicious …
  16. I’m not… never cheer for the riders under any circumstance*… *exception: a rider win in the final week that gets the bombers in the playoffs…. Don’t see that happening this year….

    First rounder for Lewis ward?…. Would that do it for Ottawa?… bombers probably aren’t giving up any young players, especially Canadians…
  18. You must be forgetting he’s an athletic 6’5….
  19. I don't hate those Calgary Unis as much as other do... or maybe they just look really nice compared to dog-**** green coloured jerseys they have been beside the last couple weeks... they probably look ugly beside Championship royal blue...
  20. Don't get me wrong... I agree that it's far more satisfying than the 2011 Swag team or, especially, the 2013/2005 laughing stock... it's just an odd feeling... I'm not old enough to remember the 80s... closest thing I've seen to this in my lifetime is 2001... but even that year the second and third (and fifth 😜) place teams felt closer to the Bombers... this year it feels like no one is close...
  21. I literally get emotional when I think about Streveler's play in 2019... especially in the playoffs... With a nearly broken ankle, he was truckin guys AND out-running them... would not take a play off, no matter what... that guy was absolute heart and soul... even if he never plays another snap for the Bombers... he's already a legend in Winnipeg... Also had more TD passes in the GC than Zach 😁
  22. This is funny... but it still feels weird being that team... I always feel much better when everyone is counting us out...
  23. That Elks team is actually not terrible on paper.... O-line and LB look weak, but mostly solid outside of that... why do they suck so much??
  24. bearpants replied to Nolby's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    still is
  25. The most confusing part of this article might be the first statement... "Entering the season as many people’s Grey Cup favourites, the star-studded Edmonton Elks..."
