The 2026 Grim Reaper Thread
- New TV Contract
The CFL plays Thurs till the NFL season starts, Friday nights as well as Sat aftn & evening. At worst, if you don't subscribe you'll miss one game a week. I don't think the world will come crashing down for the CFL losing one game a week to fans who don't want to pay for the service. This is the proper way to grow the game internationally. Not the Ambrosie way of bringing in Euros, Australians, Mexican or Japanese & forcing them on rosters thinking that people in those countries will suddenly be interested in our league.- New TV Contract
So, why can't the CFL put financial terms in the announcement? Why the cloak & dagger garbage?- 2026 Bombers Season
It ain't cheap/ $34.99 a month now. It'll be more next year.- New TV Contract

It's a huge streaming platform worldwide. Called Da Zone.- The TV Thread

Let's hope Oliveira uses that quote as motivation & runs cleat marks up & down Allen's body. These linebackers are always so yappy. They just can't shut up. .- The 2026 Grim Reaper Thread

Tell me more...- Around the NHL 2025-26
Thompson was doing pretty good. INCO was in a boom cycle at the time. So, people were buying boats, snowmobiles, cars & trucks. Kids were coming out of school & working in the mine after they graduated making big money. I knew a few guys who had 25-30 yers in & were retiring with a full pension. They hadn't even reached 50 yet who wanted out. They'd leave & retire somewhere else.- Around the NHL 2025-26
In 1989, I moved from Winnipeg to Thompson, MB & took over the office of an independent adjusting firm making more money I ever thought possible. If I was asked to move to Eureka, NWT for 3 million dollars a year, I'd be gone in a heartbeat. You don't have to liove somewhere forever but you get to bank the paycheques. These players that don't want to play for the Jets for whatever reason are entitled pieces of ****.- The Retirement Thread
Stewart got some kind of a plea deal. It's said that on his deathbed that Sawchguk said everything that happened was his fault & he begged the police not to charge Stewart. We all know the cops & the state legal authorities have the final say on whether to charge someone or not despite what the victim says. So again, rather strange.- PS Game 1 day thread (finally Bomber football is upon us!)
Elgersma has all the tools. With Collaros & Condell tutoring him he'll be fine. Just needs time as you say.- 2026 Bombers Season
I agree, wbbfan. This is a discussion forum. Basically being told to shut up & just appreciate what we have doesn't cut it here.- Around the NHL 2025-26
MLB may have something similar. Otherwise, not sure. I just know the NTL is a detriment.- The Retirement Thread
He had a fight with teammate Ron Stewart of the Los Angeles Kings over house expenses they shared in April of 1970. Due to the scuffle, Sawchuk had his gall bladder removed & his bleeding liver surgically repaired but he succumbed to his injuries a few days after surgery. Interestingly, the cops cleared Stewart of any wrongdoing & the DA never pressed charges. You'd think there'd have been a manslaughter charge at the very least considering they had a fight. All kind of hush, hush & strange.- Around the NHL 2025-26
How does a lottery help the worst teams rebuild exactly??? Especially the Jets who refuse to sign any quality free agents as we'd have to pay more to get them or are on a no trade to Winnipeg list. I wouldn't be so dead set against a lottery if the no trade destinations were eliminated totally in no trade lists.- Space is the Place
The thing blew up when the landing went wrong. If there were astronauts aboard they'd have been blown to smithereens. The space program set back 5 years.- PS Game 1 day thread (finally Bomber football is upon us!)
The only way for Elgersma to learn is thru mistakes. The learning curve is steep. Once he adjusts to the speed of the CFL game then he'll play a lot better. He'll have better days.- 2026 Bombers Season
If Wilson wants to keep playing then his family isn't helping him. They should stay off social media.- 2026 Bombers Season
The one time I agree with you. Both knew they had playing time coming. So, go out & show how good they are. To quit a day or 2 before that game makes no sense. From a business sense.- 2026 Bombers Season
SFU didn't deserve players like Tyler & the others who stuck it out & gave thir blood & sweat for a program that didn't care about them. He should have transferred out but he didn't. I give him credit for sticking it out but but the cost was very high emotionally & physically for the guy. Anyway, I can see where this conversation is going. I'm being pidgeon holed by some here & every time I give an answer the hole is getting smaller. So, for any of you who think my opinion is invalid or romantic, good on you. I have my beliefs & you have yours. Never the twain shall meet. My conversation on this topic s over. - New TV Contract
