  1. yeah Achilles from Troy comes to mind...
  2. Bud Grant was before my time, but I have heard enough of the stories from previous generation Bomber fans to know what an amazing guy he was. I'd say Bud Grant, Cal Murphy, and now the Canadian Mafia have been three of the most dominant managers/coaching combinations in the history of the Bombers. I of course am not forgetting the 1930's-41 era but my knowledge of that era isn't as broad so if I am wrong here feel free to correct me.
  3. must ask for this for my b-day.
  4. we used to be picking a lot higher too, that helps.
  5. https://www.kpcc.org/2023-03-09/actor-topol-who-appeared-in-fiddler-on-the-roof-hundreds-of-times-has-died Last person to die who was in Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Great movie.
  6. I haven't even hit that period yet.
  7. I am reading a history of the Jets 1.0. Fergie kept the Jets mired in mediocrity for years. I am experiencing some deja vu.

  9. I used to watch that show too. Man how far the CBC has fallen.
  10. man I am good. Check that - Morrissey is good at picking corners. His accuracy is amazing.
  11. Seems like every time Morrissey shoots from the blue line he scores. Weird year that way!
  12. Dubois wants to go to Montreal, who is the other guy wanting a trade? EDIT - oh I see Logan Stanley. Yeah I'd have traded him.
  13. Will the Jets score more than 1 goal?
  14. Did I travel back in time to 2022?
  15. Remembering Raquel Welch: Cher, Miss Piggy, **** Cavett ‘Seinfeld’ Video Clips – Deadline
  16. Definitely looks confident in between the pipes, stood up like a boss in the shoot out, didn't flinch.
  17. Because the Blue aren't champs anymore. I know...I hate it too.
  18. New ownership required. Maybe that Doman guy in BC wants to own the Stamps too? A new stadium would do wonders too, but there's just no political will. Calgary as a city is shell of what I knew it to be when I lived there in the 1990's. I don't get it.
  19. Longtime CBC journalist, editor dead after random assault in Toronto | Globalnews.ca I think this announcement slipped through Iheart's net as I didn't see it posted anywhere, if it was I apologize. Pretty sad - guy is walking down the street in Toronto and gets randomly assaulted. What is going on in Toronto??
  20. Is there a reason that Keith Richards isn't on that list? Is it because he actually died in 1975? LOL I was just reading a story about how Bruce Boudreau's apartment was used for the scene in Slapshot where Paul Newman is trying to get some sleep but keeps getting interrupted. The director wanted to keep the apartment "as authentic as possible to what a player's apartment would look like" and so even left the Canadian flag on the wall that you clearly see taped over the bed. It's never mentioned in the movie whether Paul Newman (Reg Dunlop) is actually Canadian, so I was curious as to why the Canadian flag appears in that scene, and now I know why.
  21. Good to go out on a win before the break. Logan Stanley is Tyler Myers 2.0. Big guy but a gaffe machine. Jets play way better with him in the press box.
  22. Blech that was awful
