It's all about fulfilling one's dreams....

Zoom in on the scar on Couture's arm. If we are being told he's not ready to go I'm not going to question the decision.
Besides he's gaining weight during Burger Week.
 
 

Don't

Looks like the guys are getting along just fine already. Can't wait to see these guys in person tomorrow. LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice Winnipeg Sun article about Hassell:
‘I could cry right now:’ Former NFL player J.T. Hassell adding Bombers’ chapter to inspiring pro football story
Author of the article:Ted Wyman

Defensive back and former NFL player J.T. Hassell will be in the line-up as a backup on Saturday when the Blue Bombers host the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the annual Banjo Bowl at sold-out IG Field.

If it was surprising to many observers of the CFL that defensive back J.T. Hassell earned a spot in the Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ line-up just a few days after signing a contract, it probably shouldn’t have been. Hassell has been surprising people his whole life.

“I was born with a birth defect on my left hand, only having two fingers, and barely making it out of my mom’s stomach,” Hassell said Friday after the Bombers held a walk through at IG Field.
“Growing up, single mom. You know, that’s a blessing within itself and just everything else I’ve been through.”
Hassell, a 27-year-old from Titusville, on Florida’s Space Coast, never let difficult circumstances get in his way. Despite having a deformed hand, he made peewee teams and high school teams and eventually played football at the Florida Institute of Technology.  He then became the only player in that school’s history to make it to the NFL. The school’s football program has since been discontinued.
Though undrafted, Hassell played four games with the Cleveland Browns in 2019 and three with the New York Jets in 2020. He had eight career tackles and blocked a kick with the Jets in 2020.
He’d been at home for more than a year when the Bombers came calling recently. An injury to American cornerback DeMerio Houston left the Bombers secondary a little thin and Hassell provides depth and pro experience.
“It’s just an honour (to be here),” Hassell said. “I could cry right now. It’s just an honour to be here. I’m at a loss for words, honestly.”

Rider math. 

LOL

Man, if we had won that Montreal game, we could basically drag our asses around the field like dogs for the rest of the year and still host the West final.
Also, someone call the authorities...Hedger is being attacked by what looks like multiple giraffes.

BC should just leave Pipkin in Montreal

Jesus.  Are they concrete seats at McGill?  Oh the piles must love it.

I called Pipkin a serviceable QB earlier this season. Nobody ever take my advice on anything

Why would BC call a time out?  Hasn't this game been long enough for your team already?
 

puzzled.

RC has that Craig Dickie look on his face 😲

Pipkin needs a day job, STAT!

*straightens tie Goltz-style*

Looked like he secured and took a step to me 

More often than not, you'd be right. Pipkin however is a horrendous quarterback.

Watch Montreal Machoka,😂

That is beautiful in so many ways!
 
best ever was that dude in Winnipeg who did the ultimate Queen at Jets games just like the painting in the old barn. Guards, horse drawn Carriage, it was awesome.
