Well look at you with your fancy book learnin' 😉

Nah it's a saying you'll see in success literature. 
It was attributed to Julius Caesar (or Cortez) when he arrived on an Island... found that his army was making arrangements to go back home... so he burnt the boats. Got 100% renewed focus from his men from that time on.
Basically take away the safety nets, remove any excuse to turn away from the task at hand.... singular laser focus.
 
 

I was there... Matt Nichols speech was incredible... very heartfelt and left many in tears... I think we can all agree he's not the perfect QB... but he was such an integral part of turning this team around and any failure to recognize that is just disrespectful and ignorant... let's give Matt the respect he deserves! 

YEAH he sure seems to have become a fan favorite..a face the team can build on and a must re-sign for sure for next year regardless of his role as back-up/starter in waiting

I'll be there for sure. Sucked it up through perhaps the worst hangover of my life to get to the airport today, definitely can't miss the parade.

and one for Jamie Stoddard! 😂

The airport was a blast. The fellas looked like they partied appropriately hard, lots of dudes leaving the sunglasses on inside. O'Shea was still chomping down on the gnarled end of a cigar. Saw coach getting swarmed by fans trying to catch the elevator in the parking garage. He looked so exhausted but was taking time for photos/autographs/hugs from whoever came up. Streveler looked/smelled like he hadn't showered. Still had eye black smudged on his face. He took a ton of time with as many people as possible. At the end he was getting shuffled away to get to his ride but there were still a bunch of people trying to get photos. My brother and I were heading towards the door as a mob was following him. At one point it all seemed to hit him and he just kinda stopped walking with this deer-in-headlights look and muttered "holy ****... this is incredible".

The "expert" analysts were all picking Hamilton. A large number of current players from other teams were taking the Bombers. I'll side with the guys that actually played against both teams.

The drought was their only legitimate chirp. Now they have nothing.

11th championship... I wonder when they'll get there. They've had nearly three decades to catch up.

I cried. I few times. This is so ******* great. We shouldn't have to wait this long but the wait really made this one special.

Don't post much here, but would like to share a few things about what tonight's Blue Bomber Grey Cup victory meant to me, if that's ok. Some info to put it into context...
 
- had a car accident in January. No one was hurt, and 0% my fault, but my car was written off. Had to buy lower quality vehicle with the settlement.
 
- spent nearly two weeks in the hospital with a nasty leg infection.
 
- engine blew out on my above-mentioned new (used) car. Ended up S.O.L. on that one.
 
- got another new car and got into another accident less than two months later. No one was hurt, but I will admit to being at fault for that one. Just a brain fart on my part. My bad. Had to buy another car.
 
- my mom, who let me move in with her 16 years ago, when my divorce cleaned me out, is moving into a nursing home at the end of this month, i.e. the end of this week (cue jokes re: grown man living with his mom, not to worry, no offence will be taken). What with the packing, searching for a place to live, plus the arranging of two moves, plus searching for three new (used) cars in one year, a hospital stay, and this being the last Grey Cup we'll watch under this roof, and all that upheaval and stress of this whole ***ing year... well, my mom and I had a good cry (good tears!) and a good hug and we both let out a loud WHOOP! when Zach took that knee at the end of the 4th quarter!
 
Anyways...
 
Cheering for a sports team may seem meaningless in the grand scheme of things, but, at least for me and my mom and my brother and sister and their spouses (all of us life-long Blue Bomber fans), tonight, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers winning the 2019 Grey Cup means... well... everything. I love the Blue & Gold, win or lose, but needless to say, I❤my Winnipeg Blue Bombers now more than ever! Congratulations to the 2019 Grey Cup Champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers! What an amazing game! Congrats to Andrew Harris! And thank you!🏈🤗❤
 
Having said that, as Tyrone Jones, James "Wild Wild" West and the rest of the Blue Bombers once said back in the day...
WHO GOT 'DA CUP?
WE GOT 'DA CUP !!!
Thanks for indulging my rant. Smiling now like I haven't in a long time! 😁👍🏈

It would seem that having the RAW guys on NXT pulled in some RAW viewers that don't usually watch NXT but didn't pull many, if any, eyeballs off AEW.

Perhaps an odd name for a January arena show (lol) but I like them using familiar names.  

It is Mutual.
They are a branch of houston .

Completely agree. I also loved the juxtaposition of the two segments. Sets up just how differently the two are approaching the match. I'm predicting a Jericho win after some Inner Circle fuckery. I think the judges will be a red herring to make you think it's going the distance. The key to booking heels is to have them take away what the crowd wants or prevent the crowd from getting it in the first place. The crowd loves Cody. Just having Jericho win a standard title match wouldn't mean that much. But if Jericho cheats and that takes Cody out of the title picture for the foreseeable future, they'll hate Jericho all that much more.

That vignette be the inner circle had me howling and Cody’s promo has me invested enough to slap 50 bucks down.

I'm sure Fox is happy.
