after a disappointing loss at least we have another game coming up soon.
Wednesday night game is kind of weird...?
anybody going to this one?

[Will]

It's a home game, I am sure many posters on the board will be at the game.

Pretty much as much of "must win" game as you can have at this stage in the season, IMO. You simply do not want to become the first team to lose to the Blue Bombers!

[ArgoGabe22]

I'll be there. I'm 1-0 when watching the Argos live this season. I must be the deciding factor lol

They're also 0-2 in which the annoying Rod Black calls their games. There must be a connection there.

[Nob]

Rod Black may be annoying, but I can't stand Suitor. I'll take Duanne Ford over Suitor every time.

[larz-7]

if we prepare for this game as if wpg is a 3 and 0 team we should win .if we take it as a sure win we all know what happens.

[AngeloV]

Rod Black may be annoying, but I can't stand Suitor. I'll take Duanne Ford over Suitor every time.

Agree with that. I love Ford. I just feel bad he has to work with Black..that man that feels he must give everyone a nickname..or 5. Mr. This. Mr. that. He's so annoying. Does he have to address the Cats punter as the Aussie every time he steps on to the field? Just address the player by his name.

[RoRoYoBoat]

Teams can't drop any home games this year. Bombers are by far the worst team in the league right now. This is a must win game as we go to Montreal the following week.

[1argoholic]

Black has a real love affair with anyone not born in Canada or exNFLers. Suiter is a jackass. I'm sick of his over the top analizing of reviewed plays and his love of everything green and white when he calls Rider games. Black with his the big story in the CFL this year is Mr. Aussie.

Well our gracious landlord decided to sell even more its soul by accommodating an exhibition game between Liverpool and TFC rather than reserve that weekend for a 24 year-old tenant.

Stupidity at its finest.

Yep. My understanding, which I think I got from reading one of T-Bone's posts, is that TFC fans don't even want this game.

[Fungi]

I don't really pay attention to anything Black says. I agree with Suitor though. Sometimes he just keeps talking so much, you want some one to smack him in the back of the head to shut him up. Mute!!! The Suitor button. Lets watch football without his annoying diatribes.

[Fungi]

Rickey needs some receivers who can get open, especially in the red zone. I really don't think we should be relying on our kicking game for points.

[gilthethrill]

And topic not mentioned much but perhaps should be is the offseason defection of offensive coordinator Jonathan Himebauch. Has this caught up to the offence? Winnipeg looks horrible which scares me.

That's correct. Apparently Rogers initiated this shortly after the LA Galaxy game at Rogers Centre. It's a cash grab, meaningless game that could result in player injuries in the middle of our season. I won't be attending the game and I'm pretty sure the majority of the building will be filled with Liverpool fans. I'm curious as to what the attendance will be and I'm hoping it will be low because we don't want another one of these in the future.

[KCargosfan]

I know I'm in the small minority but I think TSN's announcers do a good job. I did some play-by-play and color radio in college and it is pretty difficult to do, not to mention these guys having to do 2 games in 3 days every week. Black and Forde did 2 games in basically 27 hours last weekend with travel from Edmonton to Hamilton... that ain't easy.

[1argoholic]

Maybe KC you should get the Argos kicking job and play by play for TSN. You could run down out of the booth to kick and have a mike to talk during the play. Afterward run back up and continue your TSN job. haha.

[ArgoRavi]

Himebauch would have been just running Milanovich's offence. It would have taken a bit of work off of Milanovich if Himebauch had not left but I don't see any major issues with the offence at this point. The offence looked fine against Hamilton but the big problem continues to be red zone proficiency.

I agree that facing an 0-3 team, as bad as they have looked, is a bit scary.

[QBall]

As long as we have the special teams sorted out SOMEWHAT from the last two games then there is no reason why the Argos shouldn't be victorious. As muchas I would hate to see the Bombers go 0-4 (I think the CFL needs a competitive Bombers team) I guess they can see what the Lions did after going 0-5 last season and take solace.
