What happened to Bridges?? He went from an East Div 1000 yd reciever in 2024, to being released??! Did acquiring Wheatfall result in his release?? Wow.

He's been injured for basically the whole season.

Bombers take an early 14 - 0 lead and keep the pedal to the metal for the full 60 minutes. Cruise to a 27 - 17 win.

Rankin held to 50 yards or less.

I can see Fajardo haven't a field day against the lame BB defence today... not worth the time watching the game today.

Win loss or draw, ok no more draws, the CFL is always worth a watch

The beauty about sports is there are always two teams and if the one you want to win is sucking, can always enjoy the talent on the other side or take small victories in individual achievements on the home side

Slowing down Cody will be a challenge 100%

For sure, I can see him wanting to light it up in front of their home town fans. This may get ugly

[bomb squad]

I still believe in this organization. They know to get it done and they will get it done. This year. If you get on the roster of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, you're good. It's that simple. They need to get their chemistry and cohesion established. Get it done tonight boys.

Speak for yourself! If Wpg sucks I just get angry and homicidal! I'll start wishing very bad things upon Cody     

Granted, I could do what you said in 2013 when we had no hope. But since 2019 I expect us to be competitive, and thus I have no room for appreciating things when we suck.

If we lose the next 5 and miss the playoffs, maybe I can go back to the easier "its ok we lose" mindset.

Rankin held to 50 yards or less.

All depends on if we've solved edge contain. If not, we're in deep trouble.

And Willie has to not pick today as one of his days off. No jogging when Rankin is on the field.

[Throw Long Bannatyne]

This should be a pivotal game, if the Bombers play great and pull off a win a glimmer of hope will remain.  If they play bad and get blown out, it's time to accept this is not going to be a good year and they can begin to make personnel decisions with next year's club in mind. I think the pressure will mount on Condell and Younger to get their units performing better or they may be looking for new jobs in the off-season.

I gonna guess it is the golden flake liquor Schlagger!

[Blue In BC]

#1d plus comes back and all is well lol

We have them where we want them. lol

EDIT: Oliveria is 58 yards short of league leasing rusher but has played 1 game less than the two above him. He should be # 1 after this game since I expect he's going to play angry again today and so some serious head slapping after some big runs.

You aren't even gonna watch the first 10 mins of game to see what we got?
