And I haven't even started buying yet. Going to get all my Sherpas some nice parting gifts!

and he dances for nickels!

Just finally collected my $20 from my Ti-Cat friend he lost in our bet and we had a good convo about Collaros. He said that he wouldn't want Zach back in Hamilton because of the head injuries. It is a gamble for sure. He did say Zach would make a good back up, but would he accept that role? Maybe, don't know the guy that well. I know Nichols wouldn't take a back-up role, as well he shouldn't.

yes it is a very confusing feeling right now....not sure how to process an off-season filled with not just hope for the future, but a giant glow of triumph...haven't had this feeling...in 29 years...

Ok - haven't seen the game yet, but just tell me that a highly successful Canadian band was the half-time entertainment, you know, like Reklaws kind of caliber talent. I'd hate to see some foreign country singer do the half time show, and then engage in some incredibly awkward banter in the booth with Suitor during the third quarter. That would be just silly.

Hey guys - just returned to Base camp after spending the last two weeks climbing Everest. My Sherpa just handed me his phone and I haven't had time to look at the results yet, but I just wanted to say that it was another great effort this year, good to see the guys fight, and I know while we came up short yet again, I believe in the team, in O'Shea, Lapo, Hall etc. and I think all the ingredients are there, and if Kyle can have another great draft we're definitely going to be in the fight again and have a chance next year to end the drought etc.....wait what's that Lapsang??? Hold on, he's trying to tell me something.... What??? We won???? We won????????????? Ok, I'm just going to need a moment.... Time to get back to Canada!

That Freudian slip is probably pretty close to the truth. That said I remember Maher missing the birth of his child to be at Bomber training camp so I can at least be happy that his dream of playing pro football has been realized.

It was an actual Al Bundy quote. Rebus nailed the response. It was the episode where Kelly was the SOPE girl in the locker room.

Yes Al Bundy went both ways...

Made the mistake of taking a look over at MBB. All I can say is wow...I don't think I've ever seen a fan base so overconfident and cocky about a playoff game. If you ask them, it seems like the game doesn't even need to be played because the Bombers have already won. I truly hope the Bombers walk in feeling like their fan base and the Riders end their season! excerpt from Riderfans

Link? I dont want to go dumpster diving to find it...

Did you not see Claire Hanna's tweet?? I will leave it at that.

Sorry about that. Labeled incorrectly.

In a completely unrelated story, I saw someone post this picture of an unidentified MBB mod on Twitter yesterday, apparently taken inside the server room of the company hosting TEP's back-end...

what made 1984 magical too was the revenge factor against Dieter. We love him now of course, but back then we were still bruised by his comments about Winnipeg. It was icing on the cake to win the Cup and to do it while wiping the floor with him and the rest of the Tabbies.

Ha ha this is how I always picture Speedflex when he starts ranting about 1972... And hopefully the result on Sunday for the Riders:

Sean Salisbury 2.0! Actually ZC reminds me a lot of Tom Clements. Even down to the easily and oft injured part.

I usually wake up with a cramp after extended dreams about Farrah Fawcett...1970's version.
