Did Marcus Sayles give our offense an ice cream flavour designation yet?

I just don't want to go back to the days when we can't just talk nonstop **** about other teams. We took so much crap from the chuckleheads in other fanbases it is very liberating being able to throw it all back at them and I don't really feel like getting off this high horse 

Same. If we don’t win our unthinkable third in a row, I will be so disappointed lol. Got greedy these days.
but my attitude stems from the fact that if we lost, “we beat ourselves” because we are undoubtedly the best team in the league.

I'm not superstitious but OMFG WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT

Yes. It’s a bit much. It’d take me 28 years to justify that expense..

There might have been a sighting. 

Sorry to bother,just looking for a Derel Walker,if anyone has seen him,please let me know.thanks.

Came here again hoping for good news. No news. 
 

No kidding. What a dink.
Go Blue.

I don't believe this.
I don't think it's a good idea and I think it's the opposite of what Walters and MOS would do.

Does anyone think we should go with  Arbuckle (starter salary) and McGuire as our tandem? 
Cut ties with the rest?

We ended up 3-15 in 2013... Alex Hall's contract was done at the end of 2013 and it was WIDELY expected that he would get an NFL try (which he did and spent the 2014 season in the NFL).  We gave up nothing sending Alex Hall to SSK.  2nd rounder for a 5th rounder swap for a solid starting NATL Guard... That is one hell of a deal.

 

2011 was my first year as a season ticket holder so it'll always hold a special place in my heart.
That said... I much prefer the blue collar, grind it out, shut-up-and-play style of D we fielded for the 2019 playoffs. It was ruthless and majestic at the same time.
What I find interesting between the two teams is the difference down the stretch... 2011 got off to a torrid start (7-1), but never could rekindle that magic. They won the East, so getting into the Grey Cup wasn't particularly difficult (first round bye, had to win 1 game against a 0.500 Tabbies team).
2019 also got off to a great start (5-0), faced even more adversity (lost our starting QB) but pulled it together down the stretch instead of fading away. The 2019 squad certainly took the road less traveled... and did so in glorious underdog fashion.
 

They have 4 Grey Cup Championship banners at Mosaic.  When I see them on TV all I can think is - only 4?  So pathetic...

Until this year's championship win, those banners would have served as little more than a reminder of our seemingly endless drought. Now that we have a new banner... let's start hanging some fabric

I proudly wore my Swaggerville shirt every week that year.
It was a very fun year - an oasis in a dessert of horrible years. It was flanked by Doug Berry's unceremonial ousting after a terribly diappointing 2008, the Mike Kelly fiasco of 2009, and the 4-14 Lapo/Mack rookie campaign, and was followed up by an even more disappointing 2012 that saw Lapo unceremoniously shown the door, the most disastrous year in Bomber history that I know of (to christen a new stadium, to boot) in Burke's 2013 year, and O'Shea's extremely forgettable first two years here with Drew Willy and no stinkin' playoffs.
I don't understand the flack that the 2011 group got for bringing a little fun to what was otherwise a very dark cloud over the franchise. These years encompassed most of my fandom, too.

I think 2011 is only better if you cherry pick the first 8 games of the season. Everything went off the rails after that point.

Over the course of a whole season, Tim Burke's 2011 D was better.......but when it mattered most, Richie Hall's crew got it done.

Hard to say. It does make me wonder if there's more to story and if perhaps the injury he sustained influenced his decision to move on from football (he's missed a fair amount of time due to injuries), and not just whatever role change he was being asked to take on.
And FWIW, he did play 24 games as a Bomber, one more than his 23 he did as a Lion.

Yep and it doesn't seem like he's holding any grudges.  He's still wearing bomber gear in his latest Instagram pics. 
In the end, he probably wouldn't have seen the field much, if at all, anyway so his leaving didn't end up affecting anything.  Things worked out for both sides... we won, he gets to retire a "champ".
