Re: What Do We Know About Joey Elliot?
3. He only scored 7 points in the first half. Bombers fans were irked when Brink wasn't pulled for bad 1st half performances, so why weren't they complaining he shouldn't have been pulled. because Elliot was moving them down the field most of the time but having to settle for field goals, or being ...

Re: Lions vs. Stamps, Oct 8 Game Day Thread
You are correct... if BOTH the Lions and Esks win they both clinch and the Riders are eliminated from the playoffs (including the cross over). It sets up for some interesting scenarios: 1. Lions and Esks win. Saskatchewan is eliminated but it remains a 3 way race for first. 2. Lions win but Esks lo...

Re: Why do the Manitoba Moose have to move from Winnipeg?
The Giants and Canucks don't play in the same arena. There is no other arena in Winnipeg that can support the Moose even if the fan support was there for both teams (which there might be. They just won't get the support the Moose used to get, however they were 2nd best in attendance, so there is roo...

Re: Refereeing critique
Officials don't win or lose games. Players do. How many mistakes did the Bombers make to give up 44 points? Officials make mistakes too but the officiating in the CFL is better than ever, and replay reviews help to correct mistakes made by the on-field officials. The problem is when the review boot...

Re: Riders sign Grice-Mullen and flagrantly abuse the IR aga
It isn't like the rest of the league hasn't used the same 9 game IL to hide players and the league isn't about to do anything about it. Just like last year with the Bombers and Barrin Simpson. Oh wait, the league determined the Bombers couldn't because Simpson didn't want to be on the injured list ...

Re: Derrick Armstrong released
Maybe he was asked to take a lesser role on the team and didn't like it very much. At least Buono is smart enough not to air it out in public.

Seattle TV question
Howdy Lions fans. Can't wait for the bomber game on October 2nd. I figure some of you head down to Seattle from time to time and may have an answer to this. Bomber game Saturday night. Is there any TV stations in Seattle that show some/all the CFL games. I know the NFL Network is showing some, but i...

Re: Canada Tops the Medals Table - BBC
To be clear, I don't give a tinker's toss how London does at staging the Olys - I don't care how any place (including Vancouver) does at staging the Olympics - an event I don't care about (except from a current affairs perspective). I just posted the link out of interest to those who may wish to re...

Re: How About That Canadian Spirit?
I'm sure he didn't intend to compare canadians to nazis, but the rest of the article was still filled with misleading and sometimes incorrect facts which wasn't addressed in the apology.

Re: How About That Canadian Spirit?
That being said, and the article written was rediculous, if you read some of his other articles at that paper, they don't always focus on the Americans (there was a good article about Virtue and Moir)

Re: How About That Canadian Spirit?
That article was rediculous. Comparing the amount of ticket we released to China? Comparing Summer and Winter Olympics? That's like comparing the number of people going to a high school football game to the superbowl. Calling the canadian's callous for not wanting the track shortened. I guess he did...

Re: Official Vancouver Olympics 2010 - 14 Golds for Canada
Where are the mens hockey gold medal team? BB Victims of scheduling. It would have been hard for them to get there. Probably had to do some drug testing then go meet their families.

Re: A question for serious canuck fans.
Which is more important or which would you be most excited by and celebrate the hardest over. Canadians winning Gold, or Canucks winning the cup. I know at first thought, one would probably assume the Gold win to be the greater accomplishment, but when you think about it, maybe not. Canadians have ...
