What a crazy story... this from Bleacher report in reference to a brawl between the Rangers and the fans: "Ken Aspromonte, the manager of the Indians, realizing that some of the Rangers' players lives were in danger, told his players to grab bats and help them out."

Let's hope the only "product" being "revealed" is on-field... from this point on...

Did anyone else notice how often Jefferson was beating a double team.... getting held by BOTH guys... and still not getting the holding call??

Funny I was mentioning to the guys at the game that the guy Jefferson was taunted actually ended up making the tackle...

I'm disappointed to hear that this locker no longer brings you joy...

brilliant... that's even better than I expected... so many ways to insult the Argos, they didn't even have to mention 0-3....

well at least he helped us win that epic Thanksgiving come back game against BC... Steven Jyles' high point as a Bomber QB....

LOL... bunch of ignorant clowns... I suspect our social media team (the best in the league, BTW) will have a clever response for this

This makes the most sense... By my count that had 9 starting Canadians last night... 4 OL, 3WR, MLB and a corner... get two imports on that line and start from there..

diapers don't burn... does that help?? Mike O'Shea had less experience... Claybrooks obviously hasn't looked great so far but it's a little ridiculous to write off a coach after 4 games...

I would've liked to seem Rasheed Baily get a shot... but that being said, it's not like Lawler has had a great opportunity to showcase himself yet...

Two inaccurate statements... first, Chris Boucher is Canadain... Second... no one was cheering because the guy got hurt... they were just chirping him b/c it looked like he just slipped or tripped on his own feet... once the severity of the injury was realized, the crowd quickly quieted... (sorry for changing the subject for the 17th time in this thread but it bugs me that people think fans were genuinely cheering at the severity of that injury)

I agree with @Noeller that the title is condescending ... but if this guy wants to be a bomber fan, he's all good in my books... there's plenty of room on the bandwagon for the Dakotas...

You're probably right... I highly doubt teams are "scared" to play against the bombers... but I also doubt they're looking forward to it... and would much prefer a match up with Toronto or Montreal...

delete... realized I just made the exact same point...

The purpose of my list was bands that still exist and could actually play at half time... of course the Guess Who are, and will likely forever be, the most famous band to come out of Winnipeg...

Normally I would've been frustrated with that b/c it took away a TD... but I wasn't worried about it in that game... and sure enough they scored a TD on the drive anyways... I feel a little bad for Adams b/c that catch would've been all over the highlight reels if it was a TD...

Off the top of my head (current bands): JD Edwards Band, The Bros Landreth (Joey Landreth and Ariel Posen have great solo projects too), The Honeysliders, Moon Tan, Anything Johnny Moonbeam is associated with.... I'm sure there's plenty of other ones that I can't come up with right now... Some classics listed in the thread too...

I have nothing to provide since I was 5 at the time.. but thanks for bumping the thread, it was a good read... I missed it the first time as I don't come around here as often in the off-season... I hope we get some input from @SpeedFlex27... he seems to have photographic memory when it comes to Bomber/CFL history...

It probably depends on where you sit... I'd say in my section the majority is in the 30-50 range... I disagree... just get a good band instead... there's probably about 100 bands in Winnipeg that are better than that **** they promoted last home game...

I've always preferred a "tiered" power ranking type of system... Tier 1, Good Teams: Winnipeg, Calgary, Hamilton, Edmonton Tier 2, ok-ish teams: Ottawa Tier 3, Bad Teams: Sask, BC, Toronto, Mtl

TSN is still pumping James Wilder Jr and he has sucked for 2 seasons now...

this is a good point... personally, I actually kinda like it when the announcers are pumping up the other team and my team keep punching them in the mouth...

Do you have the stats on Winnipeg's defense on 2-point converts?.... I don't know if it's just me but it feels like the bombers give up about 75% of 2 point converts...

Why is Luc Broduer-Jordain retiring after the third game of the season?... I assume is has to be "other career opportunities" related... otherwise why show up to TC and play in three games??
