June 27, 201411 yr comment_61127 Watching the Bombers completely jump all over somebody early.....was kinda Twilight Zonish......
June 27, 201411 yr comment_61131 It's really a almost-perfect plan the Bombers have executed last night. No way we can win with Ray if just exchanging TDs. Keeping him off the field is really our only chance, and oh boy, both the O and D worked on that.
June 27, 201411 yr comment_61133 The only major screw up in the game was me only getting the flag 3/4 of the way up the pole.

June 27, 201411 yr comment_61229 Just watched the highlights from the game last night, anybody here can see if there's no illegal block on that Owen's return TD? I believed it's Miles who made the block on Richardson. http://cfl.ca/video/index/id/97853 It's close but I think that Bomber had started to turn his shoulders up field when he got hit (so it ended up being from the side and not abck)

June 27, 201411 yr comment_61242 Anybody else wonder if Knapp eventually steals January's job? Goossen looked good when he got in. Too early. I could actually see Howard taking January's job next season. Bombers are high on him and January isn't getting any younger.

I could actually see Howard taking January's job next season. Bombers are high on him and January isn't getting any younger. Looked to me like January and Morley were the leaders out there last night. They were talking to the other guys and looking like the veteran players that they are with some leadership roles.
June 27, 201411 yr comment_61259 Morley took a pretty funny dive on a PAT after a Toronto guy punched him...took a good 5 seconds for the pain to register in his brain. Must have been watching the World Cup.

Must have been watching the World Cup. It takes awhile for pain to register on that size of a dood.. And if it was a nut punch then every man knows the delay on those sonsofbitches

I find too many people here dump on January. You guys forget that the Oline needs to work as a UNIT - and with all the players coming and going the last few years here, with January being the only 'stable' lineman, he's an easy target to pick on. The guy is a multi time all star. Trust me - he's good. He had a solid game yesterday and you can bet that will only continue. Looks like we got a great pair of bookends with January and Knapp, and Neufeld in there with Greaves and Morley the centre, looks to me like our Oline is pretty solid - as solid as it's ever been in the past 10 years i would say. January never was the problem here, just the whipping boy.

June 29, 201411 yr comment_61728 Yeah, the O-Line looks solid now. Neufeld really worked out, Morely at Center was a pretty darn good idea... Knapp is gOing to be a great OT for us. Greaves and January are solid for us on the left side The future of our OLINE looks good to with Wylie coaching up the likes of Goosen, Nuefeld, Everett and even Swiston.
June 29, 201411 yr comment_61824 Mike O'Shea points out an unsung hero from the Argo game - Nick Moore. "O'Shea said he singled out receiver Nick Moore to the players for understanding his role in the game. Asked to block more in the game plan against the Argos, Moore didn't get the touches many expected (two catches for 32 yards), but was critical in helping get others open and giving Willy more time. "You talk about a guy, a free-agent receiver we signed to catch touchdowns and he's coming in giving everything he's got to make these blocks and downfield he's blocking hard," said O'Shea. "I singled that out because that's impressive. He was very physical." It's nice to be reminded, once in a while, that there are players who check their egos, for the good of the team. A notch up in respect for Mr. Moore. - Blue Bomber report, Ed Tait.

Part of the deal is encouraging this kind of attitude....and repressing some other kinds. Our last number of coaches couldn't seem to get behind this concept, or impose their will to ensure it.

Absolutely. I forgot to add that the Coach, by singling Moore out to the players for understanding his role in the game, he is, in fact revealing a small snippet into the role of HC that O'Shea is presenting and you better believe the "buy-in" is going to make a huge difference in changing this team to having a winning culture. And, of course, another good piece of writing by Mr. Tait.
June 30, 201411 yr comment_62168 The effort this team puts outs is impressive. I really like MO as a coach, the way he looks on the sidelines at all times. Like they say there are three types of of men, some make things happen, some sit back and watch things happen and others wonder what the hell just happened. MO seems like the #1 option.
July 10, 201410 yr comment_65231 Just a heads up, today is the last day you can go on the 'OB audio vault and listen to Bob Irving's call of the Argo game. I'm doing so now.

It's also a nice reminder that in football, the player that usually makes the 'play' is not the player who scores the touchdown or makes the tackle. This is what we teach at the grassroots level and it seems to resonate with the players.
