Agreed- Rod black should only do rider games and the occasional Ottawa game just to Justify the RODBLACKS posts.

Rod Black should be relegated to calling Pee Wee Hockey games on TSN 9 aka La Neuf

"I felt that signing here was perfect for me… it’s worked out. Right now it’s clicking.”

“I’m just trying to stay in the moment, I’m not trying to get overwhelmed and rely on my preparation.”

The Bombers aren’t sure what to expect exactly from Kongo as he is scheduled to make his Canadian Football League debut Thursday against the Toronto Argonauts, but they do know he will be doing everything at full speed.

Asked about his strengths as a player, Kongbo listed off “my tenacity, desire, motor, speed, aggressiveness… those are things that edge me out.”

It looks like Bighill survived his first game back without any setbacks. I expect to see him flying this week.

Am looking for a better performance by Mr. Grandmont- he looked lost a few times last game.

My guess is Kongbo replaces Rush if there are no other injuries among the NI's.  The other option would be Wright.

Or Hallett.

These pictures don't do justice to how big Kongbo is. 

 

Sometimes a team is so bad it goes beyond a "trap" game and the question becomes winning by how much and why you didn't win by more.

This is that kind of game.

You're  playing a winless team in full free fall.

They are both lousy....but TO plays a more physical brand of football, and has a much better DL.   That said, losing this game, would be some form of disaster, certainly....

I am more scared of the Argo than the Lions

This one gives a bit better of an impression.:

 

 

Matthews listed as starting on the outside. That's good news. I think he's been wasted inside.

Happy to see Bailey is getting his shot over Walker, even if he's not listed as a starter.  Also really looking forward to seeing Kongbo in action.

that's the shits that Adams and Alexander are on the 6 game....cripes. Also interesting that Lucky isn't returning kicks at all....Jones doing all the return chores.

Adams and Alexander on the 6 sucks big time.

Ouch yeah, 6 game for both, really blows.  At least we have some solid depth.

Who is the odd man out?

Will be a Canadian this week. Hallett or Jenke I would assume.

I think that's just for "depth chart" purposes... I suspect Lucky and Bailey will also be involved in the return game...

But they have really short legs. I don't like to point it out but it really tells you how good Medlock is as a kicker with little tiny legs.
