Weston Dressler

I heard on the radio that since the redblacks joined the league no team that has had the first week bye won their opener in week 2. Never before though has it been a strong Bomber team against the weak riders...

That was my thought too. Starting the fullback instead of one of American the SB's.

Andrew Harris

I like the new $10 bottomless popcorn bucket. I just wish it was easier to find... What is it one concession per level / side?

I'll go Chris Rainey.

Glad to be in at the start of the year and hope I remember to get my picks in every week...

It happened right in front of us and the guy just went off. Even his dad that is usually very grumpy told him to relax it's only preseason.

Do you sit in section 125? There was a guy in that section last night that voiced that opinion quite loudly...

'88 here. Go Huskies!!!

While flipping his desk over or slashing his tires sound like fun if you really want to mess him up file a Harassment complaint with HR. How can sending that out be anything but an attack on your for being a Bomber fan? Can't possibly have anything to do with actual work can it?

There isn't a whole lot to investigate. This isn't like some forums that allow you to like your own posts. His recaps after each Bomber game are priceless and often better than the game itself.

I am mostly a lurker here looking for info not looking to participate all that much. I look at those stats and @do or die is the clear winner. No one else has anywhere close to a positive like to post ratio...

Seat 22 should be an isle. At least in section 125 it is.

Two things about this game. 1. I am surprised Dano is able to play so soon after the eye injury on Tuesday. 2. Leave early for the game, another protest is planned for Portage and Main starting at 6pm. The say they are going to stay on the sides but when has that ever happened before...

This is my thought too unless there is a change anywhere else in the line up. You can't take a guy out that played his best game of the season just because hold out boy decides he wants to play now.

I think the cup holders are like ours on the back of the seat in front. Not easy to see in these pictures. I am not a fan out the suites myself. It doesn't look like you have any option for outdoor seating and not a lot of privacy from one suite to the next. One of the things I like about our suites is both indoor and outdoor seating options and inside you can actually talk or do a little business. Sadly the sight lines from some of our suites sucks ass.

We can't give Jones **** for the end of the game. He walked to the centre of the field, looked around for MOS waited about 10 seconds, no sign of MOS and turned and walked off. Do you really expect him to stand their watching the boys celebrate?

I deleted it off my PVR already but if you have the Riders/Esks game before it starts they are still talking about the Bomber game. They showed a replay of the ball right between Nicholl's legs back to Kolhert. Was an angle from behind the offense so showed it well. At least I think that's where I saw the replay. My jaw dropped when I saw how well they pulled it off.

Having spent some time in the sporting goods industry I would expect the breakdown to be something like this. Each team that operates a store or any other store buys their products from a supplier. Whether it is Adidas, New Era, the BBQ Covers etc etc etc. These suppliers would pay licensing fees to the League to be allowed to use the logos. That would be where the league would get revenue from store sales. The Bomber Store or any other store would not return any portion of their profits to the CFL. Does the CFLPA get any proceeds from any of this? I wouldn't really expect so, they are a union and should be funded by their membership. I understand that the CFL and member teams contribute to the benefits of the CFLPA but I would be surprised if they funded the operation through licensing fees. Proceeds from merchandise sales at CFL.ca site? It would depend on the deal the league has with the teams, I expect these revenues would be shared between the CFL & Teams or the teams would be against the league having a store and would rather all traffic be directed to their own site.

I am so bummed that I will be on a plane on my way home instead of at the stadium!!

I'll miss BT JR, but even more so the class of his entire family. A few times a year his entire family would some to watch him play. Had a few conversations with BT1 and always raved about the city and how well they were treated everywhere they went. I understand the need to get better sometimes has a cost but I sure wish there was a way that the new guys could actually prove they were better than who we had before. Oh wait there is that thing called training camp... ***AH Crap wrong thread***

If Mrs Ladd is pregnant does the issue of her thriving practice become a non-issue? You have to think taking time off to have a child will hurt business, is it as much as starting over in a new city? Does it matter is your husband is getting 400 or 500K more in a different city? I'm sure many wives work to keep themselves busy but after she has a child will she want to leave it with a nanny while she goes to the office? I know if I made $30K more my wife would rather stay home with ours...

How much is interest is Messam going to garner? He was unsigned during the season for how many weeks last year? If I remember correctly it wasn't until week 5 or 6 that he was picked up by Sask.

If you haven't read Bud Grant's autobiography " I Did It My Way" you really need too. I have read many of sports related Auto's and his is by far the best.
