June 30, 20178 yr comment_272807 Apparently they 6 gamed Muamba...man they are screwed...no depth at all in that roster.

June 30, 20178 yr comment_272814 If the Bombers don’t win by 14, I’ll be concerned about their ability to compete against the rest of the teams in the west. If they win by 21, I’ll feel like they have a decent chance to beat Calgary next week. It's been a while since the Bombers could blow people out and finish games.
June 30, 20178 yr comment_272815 God their NI depth is just gross .. makes one really appreciative of the job Walters has done to get us to this point. Some might argue the quality of our top end talent but nobody (with a straight face) can question the flexibility we have.

I disagree... weird things happen in Regina... Swaggerville shoulda creamed that pathetic 2011 Riders team... and we all know what happened there... IMO leaving Regina with any win and a healthy roster would be the perfect start to the season... Also Re: the depth chart... aren't they required to declare a certain number of Canadian starters on each side of the ball and maintain that throughout the game?

I'll be worried if we lose or it's uncomfortably close, it's week one for us so there could be some mistakes or things to iron out.

They have drafted really well in terms of bringing in guys that excel at special teams.
June 30, 20178 yr comment_272821 Who is the 7th NI starter? Is Jones going to get fined again for ignoring the ratio?
June 30, 20178 yr comment_272822 Since we don't count preseason, how does anyone actually know anything about some of their new starters? Which is a lot of their team. For instance, does anyone know anything about their D line? got one game to base it on. I haven't heard of any of them. Maybe they're decent. Find out tomorrow. I know they are a chaotic mess, but who knows. I doubt our coachs take them lightly. I think the Bombers will win, but it may not be the stomping we'd all like to see.

June 30, 20178 yr comment_272847 Hard to figure out their DIs... or anything here. This is like a Tim Burke depth chart. I think I'd probably play Kevin Francis at WIL to meet the ratio This team could go off the rails pretty fast - esp when Carter has a meltdown around week 4.

I'd prefer to imagine a complete and total beatdown of the Riders. I want to imagine Glenn slinking off the field after his third pick 6 with a tear slowly rolling down his cheek and muttering "it's only a game... it's only a game". I want to imagine the Rider crowd booing lustily and having Jones standing at centre field shouting "BUT WERE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?" I want to imagine Rod Peterson crumpled in a corner of the Rider broadcast booth, curled up in the fetal position and sobbing. That's what I want to imagine. And if this doesn't come to pass, then we'll deal with it later, and you know why? Because I'd like to imagine I support my team.
