Nor should be, since Wally still calls the shots.

Re: RedBlacks @ Lions -- Post Game Stats and Comments

I think it goes deeper than OC and DC. Wally still calls the shots on the field imo, and it cost Benevides. Now it's Tedford's turn, and unless Wally lets Tedford's bring in his own people (goodbye Chuck McMann) then nothing changes with Wally calling the shots. Wally has been surpassed by modern c...

Re: Travis Lulay and the long ball

I just watched the Hamilton-Winnipeg game on PVR. Hamilton has been one of the league's most successful big-play passing teams this year but unofficially Zach Collaros was just 1 for 5 on the long ball, for a 58-yard TD to Terence Toliver. Two other long passes were overthrown and two were knocked ...

Re: Michael Sam signs 2yr deal with Alouettes

Sam has rotated in for Bowman on a couple of series in the first half. He hasn't done anything of note yet. I Was at the game here in Ottawa last night, and agreed, he was mostly invisible. He had no TC as noted above, so must be given some leeway for that. He has skills from what I saw, but lacks ...

Re: Bombers 23 - Lions 13, Blog, Post Game Stats and Comment

Perhaps it all comes down to Scouting.

After stellar Scouting in O'Billovich, Shivers et al, its a definite drop from lofty to average talent.

I think Wally's time has also come and gone. The game has passed him by.

Re: Rod Pederson Goes Off the Rails

Anyone that pays any attention to Rod Pedersen deserves the lunacy they immerse themsleves in.

Football fans that enjoy the true form of the game omit Rod Pedersen from their lives..as well as fellow wackjob Carm Carteri.

Re: Lions at Ottawa July 4 - Game Day Thread

Ottawa D did not lose much with the loss of Jasper Simmons, and ST have improved.

The offence is light years better.

BC will bounce back next week. The Greenwhites are ripe for the picking.

Re: RedBlacks and Ernest Jackson

Arrogance? You might want to check the mirror SM, it is enlightening. But I gave you a West Coast slant on your view is all, no harm. However, calling last years knockout on Lulay is below low, very singular POV, as real CFL fan would not want to see any top players get hurt. I am disappointed in y...

If it's any consolation, this helps the consecutive sellout string in Ottawa to continue.

And ...Ottawa has the best receiving corps in the league, and a good if not stellar D. ST made less mistakes as well.

RNation elated tonight.

I don't expect ether team to make the playoffs, though. I don't expect BC to make the playoffs either, but at least Ottawa begins with a win. Lansdowne will be tough next week, with yet another sellout for R-Nation. Jennings will have his hands full with the Ottawa D. Is Jennings the starter? That ...
