September 16, 20195 yr Author comment_426297 Did you know.. Stefan Charles is coming back to the Esks
September 18, 20195 yr Author comment_426508 Did you know.. The Alouettes are last in pass attempts outside the left hash (88). And have thrown more of their passes outside the right hash (123)? - Nic Kowalski And would the Bombers try this? “Could the #Bombers line up Winston Rose and Marcus Sayles on the right and Marcus Rios and Chandler Fenner on the left rather than boundary and field sides? Unlikely, but something to ponder.” - Nic Kowalski

September 18, 20195 yr comment_426554 Did you know... That Canada's toilet bowl is in Regina and the plunger is in Toronto
September 18, 20195 yr comment_426578 makes sense being Canada's toilet bowl...as that province is basically a giant septic field anyway...havn't progressed to plumbing and sewer systems

September 19, 20195 yr comment_426846 DYK that the Bombers are perfect when they outscore the opponent at the end of the 4th quarter!
September 19, 20195 yr Author comment_426964 DYK -Last week two more clubs (CGY, SSK) trailed in the 4th Quarter and built drives that brought the winning points. That makes 17 times in 53 games (32%) that has occurred in 2019 compared to just 21 all last year. Cody Fajardo leads all QBs having directed 3 of them and 5 other QBs with 2 each. -The two teams with the most explosive plays in 2019 are #1 in their Division - #1. HAM 40, #2. WPG 34.

September 20, 20195 yr Author comment_427114 DYK “I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that really before,” Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Mike O’Shea was saying this week. What he’s never seen before is two members of the same special teams unit tied for the CFL lead in tackles. It’s happening right now, with Bombers teammates Mike Miller and Kerfalla Exume tied atop the list with 18 special teams takedowns apiece. Miller recently passed O’Shea on the all-time list and now sits third with 178 special teams tackles, six back of Bombers president and CEO Wade Miller (no relation). He needs 12 more tackles to tie the all-time record, held by former B.C. Lion Jason Aragki. Ted Wyman, Wpg. Sun Special Teams..Special Difference
September 26, 20195 yr Author comment_428936 D.Y.K. Last week, Winnipeg became the first team in our 'Possession/Drive Chart Data Era' to score a TD on their first 4 drives (2005-2019). *The total margin of Winnipeg's 4 losses is just 12 points with defeats by 8, 1, 2 & 1 points in 2019.

Those 3 really close loses burn. We are 3-3 against the east. When was the last time the first seed in the west was .500 against the east.

If it's going to happen it's way better to happen now.
