Well, what's the prognostication for this one?
Will there be fireworks in the old town? Will the Bombers score a second offensive TD?
Anyone believe Pee Wee (Glenn)can lead the Bombers to victory in Quebec? There is a good chance, if our D plays the way they do. However, the exhibition in Winnipeg, showed Montreal is pretty decent!
and look what Montreal did to Hamilton, who look like the free space on the bingo card.
Hey is our boy, Donovan in the Montreal camp (after getting cut by Seattle) I noticed he is back on a WTFL Roster. Will our other boy, Cory Huclack play/dress?
Geez we should change our monicker, "where the Pro's come to train!"
Anyone know?

Marcus,
How can you say that. I have been studying the Bombers playbook, and just because they run the same plays as Nerf does, doesn't mean they won't score a TD some day. And what's wrong with throwing 7 yard crossing patterns every play?
Patience is a virtue! Of course it's as exciting as watching grass grow,or paint dry. But think of it. We never have to wonder if we can make the convert!, or we never have to come up with 2 more plays that work,(b/c we are always at 3rd down and punting)
Somebody should tell the Bombers O co-ordinator, that in order to score points, you have to actually take a chance, and put the ball up..and let a talented receiver go after it. Marcus, I am tired of watching Glenn throw those many suicide passes that get receivers hammered. Khari Jones could come back and throw 5 yard crossing patterns...and he was a much better interview.
Now, Jim I know you're reading this, can't you structure or re-structure Glenn's contract to include a bonus for every TD pass thrown. (somewhat like your Eagles contract....what happened last night? Eagles were wearing white, not bright orange???!!!) I digress. Give Glenn $2000.00 for every TD pass thrown over 10 yards.
To make up the difference subtract $2000.00 from Marlborough's contract for every tackle missed.
Alas, Marcus I reluctantly have to agree with you. Montreal by 9.
Does anyone have any positive notions about the Big Blue's status for the Montreal game?

Spidy: You are dead on and this is not new with Glenn. Kahari did it too. Why don't the coaches force him to take the deeper read.Is this entireley up to Glenn to pick the read? When you were with the Bisons what was the story with the Qb's there? I think it is a lack of confidence on Glenn's part.
Glen

He needs "extendzzz" (I don't know what they are, but he needs them!)
He needs 'em for his legs!
My ole baseball coach once tole me, "ya can't hit,what ya can't see." poor Mr.Glenn is just too short. He can't see down field,and he's all cripled up, and can't get outside to buy time. He's a nice man
Our boys were taught to read outside/ in. The Big A read deep to short
Ya don't get me started

Yes but Flutie had a brain, and he could run circles around poor Glenn.
If conditions are near perfect Glenn can be a better than average passer. Once anything breaks down, he can't make a play. It's like we are playing with one hand behind our back.
This franchise is playing not to lose, not playing to win. They are tentative, cautious,reluctant unimaginative. They went after zero free agents. Tells ya right there. They are and were asleep at the wheel.
I mean imagine if the front office- Taman. Bauer and Berry had a pulse and a brain. Evidently Kerry Joseph was available!!!. Evidently Prefontaine was available. Da! Don't ya think that he would have been a good choice knowing they were going to cut Westwood? No, The team, stadium? and the QB are reflective of everything else. Barely adequate at best.
The O has a basic flaw. They want a 5 or 6 receiver set, but don't have a line or a QB capable of being dominant in that area of the game. Christ everyone knows it. That's why everyone is yelling get a running game. But now that is so skewed up, because of the emphasis on the pass, they suck all over. I can't imagine this offense scoring 4 TDs in a game.
Christ ..bring in Damon Allen. At least he can escape. One could only imagine Milt's stats if he had a QB with an arm. Milt must be cringing when he thinks he could be scoring TDs, with a Bishop at the helm.
and why won't they bring Stokes back? The guy was a sparkplug, and propelled them into the Grey Cup with his returns for instant O.
When is Hooter's opening? They said July 1st. Did they mean 2009?
