Just a quick comment regarding the postponed game last night. The CFL & CFLPA said it was too dangerous to play due to smoke. Yet, the league made 27000 people sit outside in that same noxious smoke for over 4 hours while TSN, the CFL & CFLPA couldn't get their **** together to make a call to postpone the game so people could get out of the smoke.

A History of the Blue Bombers: Leah, Vince: Books - Amazon.ca https://share.google/L8pKJcozve1O2NpRm High time this book was updated. To include 1981 - 2024.

Vintage Trevor Harris Performance. A million yards passing. 80% completion percentage. 10 points for the offense

That's Dollarama Thor

Amazing what a solid dline rotation with quality players does...osh you taking notes?

I have a signed copy of that book. There’s also this one from 1990 but yes we need one covering then til now. https://shop.bisonbooks.ca/pages/books/095564/jack-matheson/blue-bombers-60-years-and-running-1930-1990 Both Leah and Matheson were before my time but from these books I can see they were damn good sportswriters.

You need to write a book

Last time we had a streak like this was in 1972. The CFL had 16 regular season games back then. The Bombers sold out 7 of their 8 regular season home games. Capacity at Winnipeg Stadium as it was called back then was 25,210. The only game that wasn't sold out was the Montreal Alouettes on a cold & very rainy (mixed with snow) late September eveningt when 22,000 fans showed up for the game. Including Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau who was in Winnipeg to meet with Premier Ed Schreyer.

Yes thank you, Riders suck. Great to meet you.

Luke Wilson is a tool. Not a fan at all.

I hope it's nice. I'm getting a nice treat that game. Was nominated for coach of the week. My club (Rods) get $500 donation and I'm getting a $100 GC to the Bomber store and get to go on the field for pregame with my boy.

Typical Trevor Harris. All the garbage yards when it doesn’t matter. 18 straight completions and you can only get 7 points. The guy cares more about his stats than winning I swear.

Sask is the #1 D against the run because everyone is throwing for 350 yards on them.

Used to. I liked how he didn't get how Greg Ellingson's (G Elli) nickname is Gelliman.

Lol. Suits just said the CFL has 25 yard endzones.

4-0 is extremely flattering for the Riders Looks like an ankle sprain for Alford

When we gave up 222 passing yards? Sask just gave up 300 in 2 quarters.

Given our last game, we have little room for smugness.

Don't call him Shirley

TSN Riders crew was hoping for a late FG, Reality Stamps score a TD

Sask's secondary is seriously awful. If they don't get pressure with 4 they are absolutely ****** on D.

I know we're a bit off topic here but the Bombers had a true hero play for them in the 1930's. His name was Jeff Nicklin. He was from Fort William, Ontario but moved to Winnipeg. He grew up in Lord Roberts & lived on Rathgar Avenue. He got married at St. Albans Anglican Church in Lord Roberts. He enlisted in the Army in 1940 & trained to be a paratrooper. I grew up on the other side of Osborne Street in Riverview so I'm proud knowing that Nicklin who heroically sacrificed everything for this country lived in the same area where I grew up. The Jeff Nicklin Trophy is given to the Western Division's MOP. Last year, Brady Oliveira won it. If you don't know who Jeff Nicklin was then please read this. https://westenddumplings.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-greatest-blue-bomber-youve-never.html

Yeah BC was going to win it all in 2024 too.

Ball was coming out before the knee touched GG getting ready for a good cry

TSN might want to stay away from the wide shots of the stadium

Harris is getting passes tipped by a 5'10 DE.

Cgy looks to be the better team...if they stop shooting selves in foot Sask doing a good job piping in fake crowd noise tho...so obvious

If there never was a Vince Leah, we'd never have the "Blue Bombers".

The one Irving curated in 2005 for the 75th is good too. But yes we need an update.

They were blown away because they never expected 27000 people to actually show up

I dislike both teams but um go Stamps because well as always F the Riders.

If that happens it should be, but I doubt it will be. If Walter’s isn’t extended before the off season begins, I wonder if ott makes a run at him to rebuild the whole franchise.

Piling up garbage stats now....classic Harris stat line

Coaching talent, that is how you do it. 🤣

How do you dress Carey and not have him touch the ball until 1 min left in 3rd Q?

Keep throwing that pass Harris Game has become a snoozer

I know something I hate more than the Ruders, their delusional fans. That is all I need to say

Stamps DB is going to jump that pass before that game is done

Probably but he for sure greased his gitch

Yeah he's pretty good when no one is within 25 yards of him.

Yeah he needs to go. .hes a moron

Not many games where our D gives up as many passing yards as Sask just did in that half.

If we don't shore up our line..mills gonna run us ragged Mr all world got hurt when mills trucked him

I appreciate your support of my CFL History group page on Facebook. Not to be mistaken for the copycat Canadian Football History page started by someone else.

Might be early Saturday Morning football by the time this one kicks off

Should be a good football game. We’ll get to see what both these teams are all about tonight. I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Calgary this season but I gave Sask the slight edge being at home tonight. When it’s all said and done I hope these two teams beat the **** out of each other tonight.

**** them all but especially **** the riders.

Great news for the league. Hopefully we see more qb health around the league.
