  1. ?? OK judge one guy on the entire team, good grief this is why we don't deserve nice things.
  2. I wish we had a guy that had half the heart of Tkachuk. We have no one right now to answer the bell.
  3. Here's what I find amazing - that 11 years after the 1950 Grey Cup telecast, and the technology over 11 years of broadcasting hadn't really advanced. What the heck???
  4. ok maybe I got the NHL and the CFL mixed up there....
  5. I was articling at a CA firm in Calgary at the time and remember saying the exact same thing the next day to my equally clued-out co-workers. So there you go. The owners at that time were blinded by the money, and allowed a totally unfair advantage to the US teams. It was a total betrayal, in my view.
  6. Another nugget. The Argos had a guy named "Granny Liggins", which I would put up there with "Randy Rhino". This was before my time so I have no memory of this season. EDIT - I know we like to crap on TSN but man when you watch these old games you sure miss all of the new technology, like the first down line (so you know if they are even close) and graphics like telling us what the score is more than once or twice a quarter, as well as just telling us what down it is and how many yards to go for a first down. I remember the days when that stuff didn't exist and I also remember having to pay a lot more attention to everything so that you could be informed rather than just lazily relying on technology. I definitely think that while I appreciate being kept informed in real time it has made my brain go to mush a bit when it comes to paying attention to details.
  7. yeah watched Masters of the Air and was hoping for Band of Brothers/The Pacific with bombers and instead got a lot of boring minutes going no where. Was very disappointed.
  8. Beloved actor Louis Gossett Jr. has died, all the personalities we lost in 2024 (msn.com)
  9. 1994 - Calvillo's rookie season with the Posse. Man was he bad.... was this the one where a fan stole the only football they had after a Bomber td and the announcer on the broadcast was begging people to come to the stadium to bring a football so that the game could finish? I remember Rod Smith making fun of that in some video somewhere...
  10. yes, it took 29 years of this for me to be rewarded with the Bombers, now I'm on year 45 with the Jets lol....
  11. Something tells me Taman and this guy would get along:
  12. This team just looks gassed. Needs more than one day off between games and get a bit of a breather. Also, I don't have access to much Winnipeg media, what's the word on Vilardi? Is he coming back this year or not? Man we could use him right now.
  13. We know O'Shea is on side... Dumoulin-Duguay carries army experience into football with sights set on CFL draft Dumoulin-Duguay carries army experience into football with sights set on CFL draft (msn.com)
  14. I watched that video. Pacman was clearly high and he kept saying that Winnipeg was in the UFL.
  15. Yes, Winnipeg isn't supposed to win in New York. I still remember when we won in New York in 1979 in our first year in the NHL, which wasn't supposed to happen. The ref (I think it was Bruce Hood) talked about how he got death threats after the game.
  16. or...introduce the "Multiverse" concept to Bond, and have many Bonds...lol...just kidding. OK I threw up in my mouth, should have seen that coming.
