Ti-Cats @ Bombers - Thu 2 Jul 15 - Game Day Thread!

Those $10 beers at Investors must be tasting especially flat right now...

Right on with this! :thup:

Guess command centre feels sorry for the Bummers…

It was Denmark who initiated contact!

I’m not married, but when this happens is there potential sometimes later for sympathy in defeat? I’m asking for a friend. :?

It’s still the CFL with a half to play though.

Just saw that replay again and that was dirty cheap shot to the head of willy by Tracy. I hope your proud of yourself Tracy!

NHL players are a bunch of overpaid bums. :smiley: If Banks could skate, there isn’t a player in the NHL who could even keep pace with him. :wink:

Anyways thought that it was the correct call to overturn that last PI on the Cats under the new rules. Denmark did not initiate the contact IMHO.

:roll:

Willy was thrown into Tracy… .go back and watch it again

I would argue that they are still the same team, just that they’re playing a much better team this week…

Damn already feeling down and out? At least wait for the diagnosis!

:D No, "sympathy" wouldn't be the right word.

And also a very angry and motivated team after that bitter loss at the end in Calgary. That’s partly why I picked the Ti-Cats too.

Earl this has to be one of your funniest posts ever. Banks on skates? You doing okay there?

Yes I agree with you on the call, but it was so marginal. I’m thinking they should save that clip for review such that the rule needs a bit of a revision to just let them play a bit more. As Miller stated, the defender has a right to stand his ground. If that defender had not put his hands up, I bet that (no-)call would not have been overturned.

Though I am perhaps in the small few who kind of likes these new rules because they allow more contact up to five yards (even though so far defences have opted instead to play more zone rather than press coverage), as was the original (no-)call I liked the old rules to let 'em play in such a case.

That's right Hamilton does not have an NHL team!!!! So who would Banks play for if he could skate LOL! Maybe the Leaf's my want to give him a try out???

OT:
I saw that Dragons’ Den episode come to think of it - apparently it is one of the most successful products ever featured on the program:

TSN is focusing...maybe a bit too much on that Rum hut.

Even though it's early in the season, it's quickly looking like it's Calgary and Hamilton, and then everybody else. Unless some other teams steps up and shows something, this is just going to be a long pre-season for another Calgary/Hamilton Grey Cup...

While true… it’s clear Winnipeg doesn’t have a football team, so they offset I guess

...with the same outcome :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

I take it that a Rum Hut is exactly what is implied by the name. I guess they figure with a game like this, Bomber fans need a drink… :lol:

Regardless of Willy getting thrown at that TiCat defender I can't see why that wouldn't get at least merit a helmet to helmet call. You can see that the defender even drops his head to initiate contact.
