Never heard of the tune, so I tracked it down. Wow, Burton Cummings was a bitter man back in 1970. Wikipedia says the song was about Bowie. Speaking of Bowie, here's Motörhead covering one of his big hits: Motörhead is releasing a whole record of covers in the fall. Will have tunes from the Sex Pistols, the Stones, Priest, Twisted Sister, etc. No Guess Who tho.

this post shouldn't merely be liked, it should be quoted and repeated for emphasis. We are starting three rookies on our field side. Lulay threw 80% of his passes to the field against us. You're damn right those kids are gonna be scrambling. As we get our dbs back from the sickbay, we'll tune the secondary back up and then we can figure out how our kids look when we mix them in with seasoned vets. And in the meantime, Nichols has done a pretty great job of keeping us in these shootout games.

Rich, while this stuff is on your mind ... a couple of versions ago, MBB would track where you were in reading a thread and would automatically take you to the last unseen comment when you clicked on the thread title. Is that something that can be restored? It makes it way easier to follow threads. thanks for all your work!

@TrueBlue4ever, you're killing it man.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking watching him. All the promise in the world, but it's been beaten out of him by repeated injuries. Hate seeing QBs get ruined like that.

Damn, this is some seriously old school poeming.

2017-07-21 Winnipeg at BC (supplemental) Canada moment: Bombers lose, woman in crowd Tells me "I'm sorry."

Not ready to pin our wide side woes on Carmichael ... with Johnson, Wild, and Fogg out and Knox playing steady reps for the first time, we are seriously raw on the field side.

2017-07-21 Winnipeg at BC Leggett, Johnson, and Fogg sidelined by injuries. Field side gaping.

2017-07-20 Edmonton at Hamilton (special guest haiku by Mrs. Johnzo!) Says Gary Peters, Hey ref! Don't pat my peter! Victim blaming flag. (Seriously, did no one see this but us?)

The Reinbold brawl ... check out Lui Passaglia gooning it up around thirty seconds in ...three bomber OL triple team Adam Rita at 0:55 ... some of the best blocking we saw from them during the 1997 season. Damn, I'm glad that Marty York is nowhere near CFL broadcasts anymore.

Just got my tickets. Second row behind the Bombers' bench. Never sat so close before.

I think the Als will slip back to Earth and Ottawa will squeak out a win. Didn't Thigpen's big return day came against the Bombers too? Wasn't that the day when only a restraining order could have saved Glenn from Phil Hunt?

2017-07-15 BC at Hamilton (supplemental) Was that the sound of Kent Austin's championship window slamming shut?

2017-07-15 BC at Hamilton I didn't watch it. Throw Long Bannatyne and Mark said it was garbage.

Is the Hamilton / BC game worth watching? I've watched the first quarter, it looks like a decent game so far tho I know that BC comes back to win ... just hate to not close out my fourth week of game haikus but man time is short these days.

I love you people

Yeah, the yaretv service is perfect for a month abroad in Indonesia.

2017-07-14 Calgary at Montreal Bo Levi pregame: Finds a phone booth and takes off his Superman suit. Fumble, then meltdown, then disqualification. Puts "mess" in Messam.

2017-07-14 Ottawa at Edmonton Redblack shopping trip: Go out to the dollar store, bring ninety-five cents.

that single word second line, that's some baller haiku right there.

I'm going to this game! Any other mbbers gonna be there?

gah! another review. Use time to compose haiku, or go to the john.

2017-07-13 Toronto at Winnipeg (official) Harris, running hard. second, third, fourth, fifth efforts. Human stump puller.

yeah, seemed like Westerman started to come around last night ... he had a couple offsides, but I don't recall any real boner penalties like he had vs. Saskatchewan. And it looked like Ray didn't have room to wander unless the play call moved the pocket. Plus, a sack!
