THIS! Just come clean. Enough with the clearly bullshit explanations of more scoring/excitement etc. I don't like the changes, and I hate when someone is serving me a plate of bullshit but they're saying it's steak. I didn't believe it until the clock got under 1:20.

I remember not having any fear of that GC game. I walked into the stadium more confident than I had in awhile, for sure. We were on a mission... A team of destiny that year.

This is just not true. Sure, a player or coach isn’t going to blab to some random fan asking a bunch of questions, but having known front office people and a few players throughout the years, they absolutely do give insight into their team. There has to be trust involved, but it definitely happens.

I love seeing some posts on this where people are thanking KFC for believing in the Winnipeg Jets. You're welcome he says as he confirms his bank account info to regularly deposit very large sums of money into. lol. Good on him.

I am not referring as much to the regular season, as I am to the semi-final in Calgary. After that game, you could see that the Big Blue had a solid chance. Calgary players, BLM included, straight out said it. My reference is mostly to the media / talking heads being unable or unwilling to see it, after that game.

Surprised it took this long.

The reasoning for removing 10 yards from the field is dumb as well. Just come out and say the medium-term plan for the league is expanding into other markets, and the current footprint of the field is going to be an issue in moving into markets with existing infrastructure.

my biggest concern isn’t that the rules are all bad ideas, but instead I’m left asking what is the perceived problem they are trying to fix, and have all the potential outcomes been considered? 100% all of that.

Damn straight. Really good article on the rule change. https://3downnation.com/2025/10/08/duke-ellingson-incoming-cfl-rule-changes-questionable-at-best/

In 2025 with social media it’s definitely debatable

Debatable.

There is not a single person on this forum that can truthfully say they have any insight on the inner dynamics of the Blue Bombers dressing room. Not one member. There may be guys on this forum that occasionally might hear this and that but the source would have to be a disgruntled and unprofessional player, and therefore not a true representation of the locker room at all. No player with even an ounce of professionalism or commitment to the team would comment anything to anybody outside the confines of the locker room. PERIOD. Every single team in the CFL and even NFL uses vet cards but we do it and somehow our HC should be fired. What a nothing burger.

And that's a damn shame knowing our love for DD while watching his loveable multiple mini temper tantrums he has while coaching on the sideline.

I don't understand how they still stay in business these days? The location near my house has depleted the donut/muffin/bagel selection down to the absolute bare minimum. Apparently double chocolate donuts are to niche these days for them to stock? The last time I went they said they stopped serving wedges and other food items after 5 pm. Now no soups and chili? What is on the menu these days outside of plain donuts, plain bagel, a few sandwiches and flat bread pizza which completely doesn't make sense? What a massive fall of grace from only 20 years ago.

I have no idea what the locker room dynamics are with the BB’s, the real stuff that goes on, the good and the bad and how all of this has facilitated and/or not facilitated their objective of being a championship team. All we do here is look from the outside and wonder or speculate based on the little we know (unless of course one has credible inside sources who minimize their bias’s when sharing that intel). This is the stuff I find interesting.

I'll always love JJ and Willie for showing the entire league on the biggest stage how much of a joke the MOOL was that year. Stanley got robbed.

Maybe earlier in the season, but O'Shea has always operated that if you're a vet you've paid your dues and earned some benefits. With a guy like Neufeld no one on the team will doubt his commitment to the team. Every one on the oline plays through a lot even if it's on one leg.

You're right but aren't vets suppose to lead the way i.e., first guy out there last guy to leave?

Yup in summary let's move from good to great.

I wonder who will portray Patti Boyd https://deadline.com/2025/10/saoirse-ronan-joins-beatles-movies-linda-mccartney-1236573285/

Well so much for hoping they would bring back the soups with the bread bowl
