  1. Kalinic recovered nicely from his balls being busted. Nice catch
  2. BLM is lucky there NO…..that’s not second base he’s sliding into
  3. Cats moved the ball. Third down gamble. Wow Bit of momentum
  4. I’m OUTRAGED - mad as hell and NOT gonna take it anymore. DAMMIT!
  5. My guess, due to roid rage, he calmly abused them, there was two of them and one of him, which was left out of the report by Dickenson. There are no witnesses.
  6. So much for not being able to pee and just “leaving”.
  7. You know, I think it was an exhibition game, your probably correct. Yet at that time the Red River Ex was on as it straddled June and Canada Day. During the great Bomber years of the 80’s the games were a punaany feast.
  8. June 21, 1984. B.C. Sucks Lions play the Blue at Winnipeg Stadium. We hated B.C. then. Huge thunder, lightning, and rain storm delays the game. On the east side under the stands a foot of water has people slogging to the beer lines during the delay. Beers get completely sold out. Game restarts and the sidelines are still covered in water to about 10 yards onto the field. B. C. Receiver gives up misses a throw because he didn’t want to get his feet wet near the sideline. The place was nuts. Next seasons season ticket motto was something like “Feel the Thunder”!
  9. Really? Lmao….well that will be hilarious. At RF he’s not getting much sympathy. In fact a number of comments are speculating how his teammates will be able to respect the guy for letting down the team. But who knows do players get pissed off about the juicing thing?
  10. I’d agree the decision to ban or honour Chuck is the the clubs. No reason to ban the guy and there is no disciplinary issue. That being the fact, I hope his name is up on the ring. Maybe when his statue is placed it will be #1 crossing the goal with the ball, a can of beer in the other hand and a smoke hanging from his gob.
  11. If there is a standard for what players name can or cannot be hoisted on a ring of honour perhaps as guidance we can review rules in other leagues. Major League Basball has had more than its fair share of of banning for discrediting the league. Famously Pete Rose (now in his 80’s) a true performer, Shoeless Joe, a standout in his era are a couple of the most famous banned. However I didn’t know until researching that Mickey Mantle and Will Mays were also banned! Mantle and Mays were retired but were banned, punished, for being greeters at a casino. Eventually their bans were lifted. Many of the banned players on the MLB were involved in some manner in gambling. One chap was even banned for selling stolen cars. Chuckie was never suspended for any of his on or off field antics. Suspensions don’t appear to count against players as by its nature are just a defined punishment, and life goes on. Chuck, never suspended and not banned, should be up there on The Ring of Honour.
  12. 4 home games so far and no outbreak. The measures in place are working.
  13. Every rose has a thorn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
  14. Ear plugs protect just fine from horn sounds. Sunglasses make watching the game easier on the eyes.
  15. I appreciate Chuck’s play for the Bombers. I’d buy him a beer anytime.
