				Blue Bombers - 2024 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
JohnnyAbonny replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Specifically this shade of “old gold” that they used from 86-88, as they used a slightly different (imo better) variant for those 3 years To me, this is the perfect Bomber road set. You can see the difference here, as they’d worn the older, slightly duller and more mustardy shade from 70-85, including 1986 exhibition. Also, little trivia- the club wore white pants at home with royal blue jerseys and gold helmets, for just one season, 1965. I kind of dig them actually, especially the massive back numbers. I’d like to see them someday as a one-off retro for a HOF game or something. - 
	Talk about people who should have a statue outside the stadium. That woman is a civic treasure.

That away uniform with actual old gold pants should have been our alternate before that hockey nonsense, (ideally our permanent road set but I understand why people/the club like the current ones) -

I always thought this defence was primed to get gashed by the run, but they haven’t really let it happen to any harm, it’s impressive how they can situationally shut down anything they have to. JY (with maybe some input from Hall) has put together a strategic masterpiece to this point. I almost want them to wait til next week to clinch first so they can show Chad Kelly what no means with full force. -

Yeah that’s just it, they don’t like it when they can’t harp on their predetermined storylines. -

Yeah what’s with that now? Can we have Ed Tait call all Bomber home games too? -

It’s been worse since Rod Smith took over. I’ll never forget him sounding like he was reporting on a tragedy at the end of the 2021 Grey Cup. - 
	I wouldn’t blame her, they crapped it in Calgary for like 25 years
 - 
	I think it was that one yeah. Late 2016 iirc
 - 
	I’d love to see someone from the Bombers bust out the old “We showed them who they are” line for Boveralls Levi‘s
 - 
	Just thinking about it and there’s a real case for Bombers sweeping the awards this year MOP- Brady MODP- Ford MOC- Either/or MOR- Wilson MOL- Bryant COTY- gotta be Osh at this point.

	Was putting my daughter to bed, just turning it on to watch the 4th now I’ve been listening on and off, sounds like a fun game.

That’s a shame, hope he bounces back next year. I’d guess that means Pokey gets the MOR nod for sure. - 
	Hey, btw not sure if you guys knew this but the Ticats are the only team on a winning streak in the whole league right now! Pretty crazy.

Here’s a microcosm of Rider culture- Google the lyrics to TI- Bring Em Out Agree. Stats wise Bridges has a slight edge. Wilson has more spectacular plays. Probably a toss-up. - 
	Agreed, I hope they brought someone else this time. Even then, I don’t like the idea of missing Demski with the offence is just turning it on, but if he’s hurt why not just sit him? I get they’re trying to clinch first, but this is not the game to risk losing a guy long term. I don’t want to see then run out a field hospital in November again.

Shivers also got his CFL start working with Don Matthews in BC, kind of makes sense. They both prioritized talent over character. Agreed, that era built their current bandwagon. Before the Shivers/Barrett years, their fans never seemed as douchey. -

Or the old Canada Packers site! Also, Mitch Running could have been a star with a better QB.
