Why bother listening to that biased / arrogant / classless fan base.  It's not worth your time.    

This is a hilarious first post on a page with no context.

Damn that is helpful!  I'm not sure why the Burger Week ppl haven't made a better website yet.  I usually rely on Access Winnipeg's list. At least has a pic & description for each place.

It's stupid arrogant crap like this that gets rider fans laughed at in every other city in the league. You seriously believe that it's the fans who make or break players? Get over yourselves. 

so you are just choosing to argue with someone who professes to know that world? That is the height of ignorance.
 
Now I dunno whether or not Harris is telling the truth or not, we have all heard the "I didn't know, must be my supplements!" excuse before enough times to be immediately doubtful, however if you read Booch without any biases what he says can make sense. Again I ain't passing any judgements because I know that I don't know enough to form an opinion one way or the other. But I do know that arguing with someone who does know enough is pretty foolish. 

I want to believe Harris, but that's the oldest excuse in the book... I don't know enough to know anything so I'll just focus on yet another bomber backup stepping in and doing the job.

He's 10 feet if he's a foot! 

The sooner the Bombers move onto Streveler, the sooner this board can move onto ogling McGuire.

Not an artistic triumph...but alone in first place eases the pain
Not a fancy glass.....but the contents do likewise..






 
 

I don't think Nichols needs to prove anything to a bunch of keyboard warriors. A win is a win. 

I get if people don't like the NFL for whatever reason.
I just don't get people who hate the fact people do like it.
 

Props to both WFP and CJOB for paying hotel rooms for someone to stay in Guelph and report on practice this week. As good as Ed Tait is it will be nice to hear other reports from others as well.
 

It is pretty funny that this is the first year we went into camp with a receiving corps that looked awesome and now we finally scout some good receivers. Could have definitely used these guys from 2014-18.

Don’t know where to put this, but I went and watched Wolitarsky’s set at Earl’s tonight.
First off, he was actually super good.
Second, him and Streveler were super stoked that my buddy Ray and I had their jerseys.
Thirdly, Matthews was there and looked very unstabbed. Good turnout - Strev, Demski, Willie, Stove (played a couple songs), Lawler, Sayles, Humes, Speller, Lucky, Rose, Nelson (walking boot) and Petermann all showed to support.

Some Interesting stats for the bombers and cats. 
5 games in the cats are tied for the most Yards Per Carry given up on defense. Tied with the argos, the only team to give up more rushing yards then the cats. The bombers have given up the fewest yards by a mile, and the 2nd fewest YPC against. We have also not given up a rushing TD yet. 
The Pass D is remarkably similar for the cats and bombers. 1393-1330 passing yards against, 56.1 - 59.1 completion % against, 7.1-7.8 YPA, 4tds-8ints and 2tds-4ints. (the first stat in each category is the bombers number) 
The cats have 18 picks on D this year to the bombers 9. 
The bombers have the 2nd best rushing attack in the cfl, while the cats are 6th. The cats have the 2nd most passing yards and we have the 2nd fewest. 
Its a battle of the 2 best punt return teams, and 2 of the 3 best kick off return teams. 
A big factor will be the bombers are top 3 in avg and net avg punting where the cats are 7th and 5th respectively. 
hamilton have given up the 2nd fewest sacks and we have the 3rd fewest. 
 
The keys for us will be pounding the ball, limiting the pressure the cats get on nichols, and protecting the ball. Our special teams and run game look poised to win the field position battles. This one should come down to pressure and turn overs. 
 
 

Hey thanks a bunch. Had some health issues, but things seem to be back on track now. Looking forward seeing a grey cup parade here this fall. 

I wouldn't eat too much crow .. 'Being involved in a fight; expect his release' is much different than 'Guy was stabbed and went to / released from hospital; is practicing with team today'.

Three words.
Park and Ride.
Convenient. Works pretty well.

the stadium is in a phenomenal spot, and I don't buy any of the bullshit surrounding it's location for one second.....it's always going to be inconvenient for someone. I LOVE where it is....

I thought it was cool that the Grand Forks Newspaper is trying to get the people from Grand Forks to drive up to Winnipeg to watch Blue Bomber football and adopt them as their team!

Ordered one......now to convince the fiancee that we need to hang it at our wedding reception August Long......

These are really cool
 

Think there will be feature on the Hardrick Hop on the pregame show.
