If I had some extra money, I'd buy a ticket and sit next to you at the game.

Looks like this thread can end now...the Blue Bombers' 2008 season is over.

Final Score:
Edm: 29 Wpg: 21

Can the Moose play for the Grey Cup?

Defense and special teams played well. Glenn looked horrid. This needs to be his last year. Ditto Berry.

Froze my friggen heiny today. I had all the right gear but nothing could stop that wind man.

Okay. Shall I start the Blue Bombers 2009 thread now?

Wait a couple of months... You never know... They could become the Phoenix Sandblasters by next season...

At least let the bodies thaw out a bit

Should probably wait till training camp starts...otherwise it will be nothing but a fortuneteller's thread .

Yes time for a new QB, I froze my ass for that!

Too bad we have to wait 'til the end of the season for them pro managers to see what might be going wrong with the team...
.
Me thinks, they thinks they were the real Grey Cup Champions from last season. So they thought the cup would be even easier to actually win this season. It definitely wasn't easy, I'd say, they sat on it...
Besides taking in a great running back, the rest of the team's problems were dragged along until now. Summing up, the late second half of season surge was probably more the other teams' fault than the Bombers playing better... At least the statistics show that. They sure weren't consistent. Shouldn't a good coach know when and where to improve a team?
Yeah, you might say it's easy to comment about it, but I'll bet even a 10 year old avid Bomber fan will have noticed that this year's team didn't have the spark necessary to win (Bomber management said they'd easily win the cup, at the beginning of the season...). Maybe next season they should just apologize to season ticket holders (and non) asking them to come and root for their favourite team and promise they'd do their best to turn this team around and TRY to make them, go the distance.

Its been time for a new QB since Glenn broke his arm last year.

I hope we can get someone who is better for next season.

NO, I suspect they've known for a while now that the coach needs to be replaced. I sure hope they know we cannot rely on Glenn. Glenn had a good year last year. It say's here that was his one and only above-average season. The rest of his career he has been a very average, unspectacular, and IMMOBILE quarterback - almost stone like in his inability to move.

The Edmonton defense knew that and they were able to key on Glenn and the RBs. Even a little play action would have gone a long way today.

I edited my previous comment.

Oh well...can't win them all.

Would'a won were you there.

I predict the bombers loose by 8 points

LOL. do you mean next year?

Yes I think we need to look at the coach he doe's not have the teams respect or their all out effort . Glen should go as he is not consistent enough. The back ups should be more fully evaluated for their chance at the job. And the search for a #1 should start now . Milt you deserved better today from all that played .

Glenn can't run as a result of wearing two leg braces, and now he shows that he can't throw either.

Isn't it time we figured out he has to be replaced with a working-model?
