I completely agree that we should just go with the flow, let the Bombers do whatever they want and just have patience.  I mean, look at how well that's worked out for the past oh, twenty years or so.  For me, the "thank you sir, may I have another" attitude of some is wearing a bit thin.

I get that the stadium is a no go, but for me, the fact that they clearly put ZERO thought into what they could do for the fans and that, initially at least, thought that simply closing the practices to the public was the best option tells me that Wade better have a long hard talk with the tall foreheads that are in charge of this sort of stuff, because really, it is nothing less than a huge middle finger to their hard core fans.  
 
"It's only for a year" is just garbage.  Have a plan that respects the people that pay the freight.  How hard is that?  

Cue the Bombers PR department to tell us how...
 
a) The proposed plan is a great one
If you just relax and accept it it will go much easier
c) We really respect you

Ya know, at this point, I've heard the same thing over and over again from the Bombers. They're doing everything they can to chase away young fans. With the Jets back in town, the Bombers should be bending over backwards to please people, instead they're the ones asking the fans to bend over. It's one issue after another, it's unprofessional, and it kills the team's credibility.

Its not about TC out-drawing soccer anyways. TC is free, obviously it can't compete with a paid event. It's about the Bombers taking this opportunity to lock fans out and saying "oops, sorry, nothing we can do! Please buy season tickets though!"

Me too.  Part of the attraction was the ability to sit in the stands at IGF and drink it all in.  But if the plan is "bring your own chair" and park beside a pasture, no thanks.  
 
I really feel bad for the players though, for a lot of the US based ones, I'm thinking that the last time they would have had practice conditions like this would have been high school, maybe.
 
But anyway let's hear it for women's soccer...
 

Thankfully, in this country you do have freedom of speech (within limits), but you do not have freedom from consequence.

I thought they were dueling hand puppets

Do you really think that many of us care about what one anonymous internet posters thinks about the credentials of another anonymous internet poster.  Because if you do, stand by for disappointment.  Most of us here, as far as I can tell,  just want to talk Bombers and have a little fun while doing it, and try to keep the douchebag quotient as low as possible.  So maybe you should not worry about what we think about others because you might have other things that should concern you more.

But if was Saskatchewan, that player would forever and a day be my hero (and not just the sandwich kind either)
