Bob Irving told 620 radio today that the Bombers told their media that Bryant graded far above the other Bomber lineman...so I'm guessing other media judges offensive lineman by the same standards - they listen to what the team tells them.

Yes, the hypocrisy is stunning!

It isn't "whining" to stand up for the 100,000 or so jobs that have been lost.

I can't argue with too many of these selections... except for Jon Ryan - I guess they just picked the guy with the highest average ( that's easy). I would have thought we'd get more than one nod on the offensive line - we led the league in rushing yards by a fair bit (running back & QB).

And Winnipeg is one of the cheapest places to see a football game.

Yeah, I won't be comfortable with a 14 point lead against Calgary this Sunday...unless maybe if we have the ball and there's a minute to go on the clock

I'm sure Cody Fajardo ( and others who share his faith - including a long list of present and former Bombers) would say his Messiah is in the same place as He was before the injury...right there with him!

Yup! They can take the time to make a long post on here, but can't be bothered to spell his name right...oh well.

I think if Harris had played in all 18 games this year he might have broken Cornish's record for a Canadian in one year

Anybody know what the record is for a Canadian running back - total rushing yards in ONE season?...or does Harris have that already?

Agreed. Harris would have won it had he been healthy...but Harris' yards haven't translated to many points..or wins.

That's crazy!! I think even I could have hit 40% ( as long as the kicks were from 15 yards or closer).

You sure you didn't want to give the Riders all the awards???

I hope your right.

I believe Jonas got traded in 1974 when Brock arrived so he wouldn't held for him.

I know Danny White was the kicker for the Cowboys many years ago (he later became the starting QB).

Okay, I got another question. Why couldn't the Bombers list their back-up running back as the 3rd QB (besides Collaros and McGuire) and then list Streveler as a running back? It would only be an issue if we had an injury, but otherwise it might work. Am I correct??

Things were a lot different back then. And honestly, sports personnel weren't held up so much as the idols they are today. (No, I don't speak from personal experience).

Most reasonable people on this board (that excludes some), just want to win -stats are secondary to us. Nichols was a winner - he wasn't flashy, but he often got the job done. He was the best option we had at the time. Collaros' stats weren't flashy, but we need to remember he hasn't played a whole game in about a season and a half...and he had only 2-3 practices where he ran our offense. He likely has a higher ceiling than Nichols (i.e. makes some plays out of nothing). Let's hope he stays healthy for 3 playoff games!

If O Shea moved on I wonder if they'd reach out to Mike Riley...he's an offensive coordinator in the XFL (in their upcoming season, so they'd have to pry him away before the season starts). It would be worth the price of a phone call anyways...

He hopes to play for 5 more years...

Yes... Every win is on the players. Every loss is on them too Just saying...

Yes. Patrick Mahones wasn't available.

Medlock Collaros Our defense in the 4th quarter

But why then, is he commenting on this thread?
