Well at least as far as I can recall. Berry is on a radio show discussing the Bombers when he comes up with a rather tell tale sign that he is looking for excuses.....He suggested more than once that the poor showing by the offense was due to practicing in wind all week and then facing zero wind in Skydome for the game....

Got to say, I have never heard that one used before....

If you go to http://www.cjob.com and listen to the audio vault on Monday October 29th at 7:00PM and listen at around 15 and 45 minutes, you will hear the observation by Doug Berry. You will need to join, but a funny comment after the excuse is that due to this, they left about 400 yards of O due to the "stagnant wind conditions". :roar:

Stagnant wind.

Good one.

Sounds like methane gas from grazing cows.

What are the best, worst, lamest, funniest excuses you have ever heard?

Reporter: "Why did you drop that fly ball?"

Outfielder: "The sun got in my eyes."

Teacher: "Why are you late?"

Student: "Here is a note from my mom." The note reads: "My daughter is late because the car wouldn't start. Signed, My Mom"

Rammer you seem to be spending a lot of time these days thinking about the Bombers, you must be pretty concerned about facing them :twisted:

Geez no credit whatsoever.

We have Rider fans coming on here saying Lions fans aren't really CFL fans and only look at what is happening with regards the Lions. And now we have Bomber fans accusing us of not focussing enough on just the Lions and are overly concerned about the amount of time we spend looking at other teams in the CFL.

On one hand we aren't CFL fans and on the other we aren't spending enough time being just Lions fans.
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

What strikes me on this, is that you bothered to open this thread up, unless you had an inclination, given the title. :twisted:

The site is called Lionbackers. Correct?

So their opinion matters why, exactly?

LOL that is pretty good, the only thing the wind would 'affect' is the kicking game..and that would be a positive.

Stagnent wind.

If you fart in the woods and no ones hears, is it stangnent wind?

If you fart in section 17 and it lingers for more than 10 minutes is it stangnent wind?

If a coach talks of stangnent wind is his head up his ass?
