Site Updates
That guy is what will kill that site for good if they are not careful. Starts too many threads, all trash, and makes any other real content disappear in the noise. They need to do something quickly.

Ottawa Redblacks
...I guess since they play in the nation's capital... Yeah, the all caps thing is dumb.

Investors Group Field: By The Numbers
My understanding was that they sold out quickly, and there is a waiting list.

If you started a team today and called them the Blue Bombers, you would be laughed out of the city. It will grow on people, to the point where nobody will remember what the complaints were all about in the first place (assuming they last long enough for that).

Investors Group Field: By The Numbers
Oh, and I spent about 45 minutes in the upper deck, and didn't notice the military-grade wind machine the Bombers supposedly installed up there. Much ado about nothing, I am thinking.

Investors Group Field: By The Numbers
Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but I will post it here anyways. I checked out the stadium yesterday while picking up my season tickets. My overall impressions? The place is fantastic. I can't wait to watch a game there with the place packed with fans. It feels massive and intimate at the same time. I was struck by the shear scale of the structure compared to Canad Inns (as if they were going to finish it last spring!). There are some warts (shoddy concrete work in spots...perhaps weather related, some laughably bad obstructed seats, etc), but in my opinion those are minor issues on what is overall something we as Bomber fans are blessed to have been given. Side note: that "cable" railing in the first row of the upper deck that is giving people grief? I sat there (5' 10"), and I will gladly trade anyone for my seats if they don't want them. The cable is not an issue in the slightest. If you sit back and slouch in your chair, it is in your field of view, but no worse than a hockey cage/mask would be. You can either just stare right through it, or literally shift an inch in your chair to see around it. On the other side of the coin, there is a seat in the corner of the upper deck behind some plexi-glass abomination that has the most hilariously bad view you could imagine. You would need to pay me to sit in it.

I would guess that the negativity is slim to none.

Dumb question: are those replicas? Or smaller versions that are going elsewhere? Because I thought the real ones were supposed to be huge. And it would seem silly to have to change the signs every time the advertisers changed.

Offensive Guru Crowton Revamps Bomber Attack
Yeah, Lapo was always assumed if the play didn't work, it was an execution thing.

Offensive Guru Crowton Revamps Bomber Attack
Crowton's offense got progressively better last year. You could see him making adjustments as far as dropping plays that weren't working, etc, as he found his groove. Looking forward to see what he can do with a full year of his own offense.

Game of Thrones last night
Haven't watched the episode yet, but good to hear it stays mostly true to the books. This has been one of the best, if not THE best, adaptations of a book to screen I have ever seen. They have done a remarkable job.

Site Updates
Just needs a banner or something to differentiate it from a generic site. Other than that, very clean. Much cleaner than the last one. Edit: Just tried the mobile version on my iPhone. That might be the one feature tha ta brings me here more often than the alternatives. Super, super slick.
