September 6, 20159 yr comment_149280 no but we sure got a lot of comments from the jokers here.. Like you?
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149285 IMO, Henoc will sign with the team who gives him the most money, I think Winnipeg will be that team and I think that makes his choice a lot easier. 250,000 a year even more for 2 or 3 years and i bet he signs. Walters will get him, I just don't see many other teams in the market for a MLB right now.. Honestly, Edmonton,BC,Calgary are all out in my opinion... Edmonton will go after O'Donnell instead. Steele is dressing on the oline for them, OLINE is of great concern there. I honestly feel as tho we have the best chance in signing him... Toronto Out too, Hamilton too i'm sure... Montreal probably not in the running. Ottawa? maybe but really how much money can they throw out all the time, Lemon and Muamba? I don't think so. Honestly, I feel as tho signing Muamba will come down to money, whoever offers the most... Wild tho, heard nothing about him, I think he'd actually be easier to sign than Henoc, as i'm pretty sure the guy bleeds blue and gold.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149298 Chris Cuthbert says big names will be interested in Riders coaching job, then rattles off Higgins, Benevides, Kelly Bates, Glen Suitor and Lapolice. Cuthbert is losing it. He forgot Tim Burke.

Cuthbert is losing it. He forgot Tim Burke. Glen Suitor? Has he coached in any capacity at the pro level since retiring?No, but if you've listened to Glen Suitor, he has the uncanny ability to know what the players are saying to each other, or even what they're thinking after each play. All this from hundreds of yards away from the playing field. What better trait could you have for coaching if not this super-human ability?
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149311 A little while ago, I listened to Chevon Walker being interviewed on 'OB. According to his responses to questions, I would judge him to a touch smarter than the average houseplant. Not a good sign, and reminiscent of a Mack Herron interview I heard waaaay back.

According to his responses to questions, I would judge him to a touch smarter than the average houseplant. Not a good sign, and reminiscent of a Mack Herron interview I heard waaaay back. In his first scrum in Winnipeg he referred to himself in the third person three times in the same sentence. A real winner.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149316 Bad Omen Department: On 1290 radio, both Walby and Westwood expect the Blue to lose by at least 20 points. God, I hope not. Losing to the worst team would be bad enough, but getting trounced would be a season low, maybe a decade low for the Bombers. Even Vegas oddsmakers favour the Riders by four points.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149318 Bastien and Bruce Johnson are the scratches today according to Bombers twitter...?

Losing to the worst team would be bad enough, but getting trounced would be a season low, maybe a decade low for the Bombers. Even Vegas oddsmakers favour the Riders by four points. I agree but all logic can be thrown out the door for this game. This game has not been kind to the WBB's even when we had a much better record than the Riders. It's just part of the lore of the LDC.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149320 Bastien and Bruce Johnson are the scratches today according to Bombers twitter...?I like that.EDIT: that was apparently a typo. Derrell Johnson was scratched, not Bruce.

September 6, 20159 yr comment_149331 Well we will win if we don't let the Riders get off to a quick start. If we go down by 10+ points in the first quarter then it will be a long day.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149333 Here we go... not sure why I'm watching but I am.Masochists,we are.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149334 He's going to get picked I think those balls are looking like easy picks
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149339 Listening on OB. Picard should be seeing the bench for a few plays after that stupid penalty. And a bad punt by Lirim puts the Riders right back in it. Hopefully these are the only dumb mistakes we have today since we're always good for a couple per game. But I'm not optimistic.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149340 That call of incomplete pass was bullshit and the fact that the command centre couldn't get it right either is bullshit. The command centre is useless if they can't fix the wrong calls.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149341 Nah it was the right call. Adams never really had control. Catching a ball is a lot different than a handoff as you need to prove possesion and the evidence wasn't there. Fact is though, fricken Brohm actually made some decent throws downfield into the find - FINALLY. Up to that point this looked like a highschool game with two incompetent QB's. Not that the wind is helping any but sheesh, enough with the outs and dumps. At least Smith with the wind was throwing down field. Looks like a 'rider victory though as they'll have the ball in the fourth quarter. Can still be a blowout win too who knows - but so far at least we're in it which is a lot better than I thought.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149342 Once the call was made and it could have gone either way, there wasn't enough on the replay to overturn.
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149343 So Bhrom has only skipped 1 off the turf, and hasn't been horrendous. Does that qualify as a success?
September 6, 20159 yr comment_149344 I disagree not the righ call, or they should always call it that way and they don't. I've seen many a catch where the guy slams his butt on the ground let's go of the balls and its considered a successful catch. He held onto that ball for two seconds almost three before the roughrider batted it out of his hands.
