    I was always Joe Poplawski.  He's still one of my favorite all time Bombers.

    HardCoreBlue got a reaction from bb1 in Random Jets News   
    Excerpt take from the Winnipeg Sun:
    'Of Winnipeg’s 28 remaining games, 17 are against teams that weren’t in a playoff position on Thursday afternoon. Some, Minnesota and Nashville, for instance, are fighting for their lives. Others, like Chicago, the Jets opponent on Friday, are so far out of it they have completely different things at stake.
    That, Niederreiter knows, can be tricky.
    “They have no system, they try to just get points and some guys they just try to be in the lineup for next year and all that, so (try) to prove themselves,” he said. “I’ve been fortunate to have been in the playoffs for a lot of years… and teams who are fighting for playoffs they play with structure. They try to do all the little things right to get into the playoffs. But then you play down the stretch, maybe even in Chicago, where they maybe cheat for offence. There are players in certain positions they shouldn’t be in.
    “So it’s something that’s going to be tough to play.”
    Interesting take by NN. Something I never took into consideration of how trap games can sometimes work.

    TBF, some of their players weren't actually scouted by them.  Stiggers, for example, was not discovered by their scouts. He happened to play in the Fan Controlled league for an old Argo Assistant (John Jenkins) who told Toronto about him.  I'm sure this happens for every team to some extent though - you're not going to be able to see everyone so it pays to have connections.

    After the ‘84 west final my family and I were invited to the stadium to greet the team… Can’t remember what they called the room in the old barn… Anyway, I got an autograph from Rick House on my jersey… He had consumed a few pops and signed with the pen in his mouth.  It was pretty hilarious and I’ll never forget it.

    Come playoff time (unless the wheels fall off and we don't make them), knowing open real estate will be hard to come by please try to make it a goal to create space for Ehlers to shoot cuz Goalies have no idea where its going. What a deceptive laser he has along with his speed, duo threat.
    Oh and back in the day we were able to roof backhand dekes. Kids these days. lol

    I had a blank #21 jersey from the 80’s and one with the Murphy NOB. 
    I lost the named one to a mouse infestation and drunkenly ripped the other one hulkster style in frustration after watching Alexis Serna blow a FG to lose the 2009 season opener in Edmonton.

    Don’t forget mini milt Terrance Edward’s, when I was brainwashing my son that we are a Bomber family, that’s the player he liked and wore to Games when they were visiting the eskimos/elks. Still has it. Then the NFL Eagles took him over.

    I had a navy lightning bolt Brad Elberg jersey in grade 5 lol 
    Also back then I had a sweet jersey style 3/4 length shirt that someone at my Dads work made for me with 88 Bolton on the back. (For whatever reason Nathaniel Bolton was my favourite Bomber)
