Incredibly jealous...if I was able to get time off work, I woulda come just to take in the atmosphere all weekend. Going to be something you remember forever...
There was never a doubt that there'd be issues selling tickets. Winnipeg (Manitoba??) is very cheap and doesn't see the "value" in a once-in-a-lifetime event like this. Will sit back and try to get free tickets, but won't drop the big money to be a part of it.

Eskimos fined $20,000, HC Jason Maas fined $15,000 for not wearing mics last weekend. Suspensions loom if it happens again.

Fun fact of the day: @Kohlert2 has a QB rating of 287.5, has completed 100% of his passes and has 1 TD. #TheMoreYouKnow
I have 2 different Manitoba ones...the current one, and the one we used prior to that (my grandfather carried it with him all through WW2) because I am *that* intensely proud of being from MB. Also, f*** Alberta, so I rage Manitoba everywhere I go here...
I play floor hockey every week with a bunch of old boys who've been doing fantasy drafts since the late 70s, and they tell tales of how Gretzky was broken into 2 draftable players: Gretzky Goals and Gretzky Assists. We talked this week about how McJesus isn't far from that....could happen again one day....
I'd love to see a home playoff game, and I'll haul my fat ass 13 hours back home for it. That'd be a hell of a weekend. It's also a long weekend, as Remembrance Day is the Friday...
Was vs Toronto, probably 2005...he later confirmed that he did, indeed, kick it intentionally at the guy's face, as hard as he could, so they could recover...and they did... Was awesome.

Moe Leggett (lower-body) and Ian Wild (upper-body) did not practice today. No determination on their playing playing status. #Bombers

No question, Nichols was in consideration for that job, but had serious injury problems. Turns out Reilly *was* the better QB all along, but at that time, it was considered even odds...
