Quote from: Blue In BC on September 12, 2025, 03:17:32 PMWe can kiss the season goodbye if we lose again. I fully expect the Lions and Elks to win their games. Obviously nothing is guaranteed but this seems to be a tipping point. Unfortunately we're doing it without our starting QB.

Fingers are crossed but IMO we have to play a near perfect game tonight. That hasn't been close to how we've been playing most of the season.
I feel less extreme. I think we need one of this week (Ham) or next (Ott). Both would be a huge bonus of course. Considering that Hamilton will dedicate winning this game to Ted Goveia, as they should, our odds slim as they were should be almost none.

We had a chance to be in the winning the season series against the Riders with 1 win in those 2 games. Came up short. Now we're trying to avoid being passed by either the Lions or the Elks.

Playing without our starting QB and the other teams playing easier games is cause for additional concern.

Obviously the games have yet to be played. I wouldn't bet the outcomes are in our favour. I can only hope things go our way.
One game at a time.

I don't blame anyone for being a little down on the team as of late but you're like a different person

It is a little tough to stay positive these days. For me it is just my feeling that Bomber Management fell asleep at the wheel at the start of the year or even prior to the 2025 season. I am not sure they negotiated in good faith with the talent that left for greener pastures nor did a good job at finding suitable replacement talent. I believe the downward trend started long before this season and was recognizable, however Bomber Management did not choose to react to the known issues at hand, but rather roll with the same old thought process that what we had in the past was good enough today.

I look at the current scenario as a Management issue going back a couple of years that was either ignored or never addressed.

I take it your real passion is eating chicken and not football?

always curious how players drop these comments just the day before the game they are playing their previous team. Kenny knows what he is doing whether its a distraction to bombers or hes trying to motivate himself.
I have no doubt that Walters wasn't rushing into a contract, when most felt that the receiver market was resetting ie Lewis taking considerably less. Hamilton just didn't allow it to be
reset.
Lawler was never going to sign at less than ly, he himself feels we underpaid him. Its all about the money and threes nothing wrong with that but he shouldn't make himself sound like the victim

This is going to be a very sad game to watch no matter which way it goes with the passing of Ted Goveia. I've had a heavy heart all day. 

My deepest condolences to the Goveia family and all the Bomber, Ticat, and CFL fans that knew Ted. He was a great football man and an even better human being. He's going to be sorely missed. 
Go Bombers!
