Ritchie was just such a breath of fresh air after the reinbold years. That group definitely should have won a cup. 

I still remember Mike Gray deflecting Matt's pass straight up in the air & then catching it on the goal line. Wow!!!!!

RIP to my favourite Bomber coach of all time.

He had some of the best post game show quotes with Knuckles

Add the ol' bear to the list.... Bless that man.
 
 

I remember that game and those real disheartening years very well. Even recognize some of the yahoos in the background when Ernie is interviewing Reinbold

Keep him clean and it won't be an issue. 

I honestly dont think Strevy signs with Brown penciled in as the starting QB.

Check this clip out. They thought a direct hit to a QBs head was a perfectly clean hit.
Side note: I miss running onto the field after a Bombers win.
 

I think in this new era a fullback is a lot of times irrelevant anyways. Sixth lineman for max protection, extra slot (6 pack) or an H back (Heavy receiver , blocker tight end in backfield type) is the way teams are utilizing that extra backfield spot.

They might have tried to be funny and trendy... but the execution is so poor it's just straight up sexist 

Nah jokes are funny. That's just hacky sexist bullshit.

It's shitty comedy. My daughter doesn't do girl math. She does math. The math that put us on the moon wasn't girl math. It was math that was done by a woman. 
There's funny jokes that make fun of people and then there is stupid **** like this that continues stereotypes.

Or @Noeller's favorite:
 

yup...U can see the warrior in him...and how he will be a real leader here
Even had a clip of him playing my team in College at QB 

Great inspirational video, probably the best move the Bombers made was resigning this guy!. Heart of a Champion!

Just somethi8g to watch during the slow part of the off-season

The Alouettes’ 48-13 destruction of the Bombers proved if there was any lingering doubt about the former’s vulnerability, it was premature at best. Meanwhile, it was a stark reminder of just how bad the Bombers, now 7-10 in a wildly uneven season, can be on any given Sunday.
And that doesn’t just include the offence — or the players, either.
Because no sooner had the stinkage settled than Winnipeg rookie head coach Mike Kelly decided it would be the perfect time to remind all those fans he’s alienated during his rocky tenure why they’re not buying tickets anymore — and proceed to tear into Hall of Fame broadcaster Bob Irving on CJOB’s post-game show.
Kelly was apparently angered by the attempts of Irving and colour man Mitch Zalnasky to explain why the Bombers could be so flat and ineffective. Perhaps they were looking ahead to the Nov. 8 regular-season finale death-match with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
“I’m tellin’ ya, we were focused in on this game and that’s the only thing we were focused in on,” Kelly snapped. “It’s just media bullshit talking about anything else.”
When Irving mildly protested, “it just didn’t look like you were focused, I’m not saying you weren’t focused,” a peeved Kelly spat: “Don’t tell me we were or were not focused. This team came out and played. Period.”
Then Kelly hung up. Irving was speechless.
Talk about getting your panties in a ball.
Irving called Kelly’s tirade “juvenile” and “rude” and perhaps the worst interview he’s had in almost four decades on the air.

So glad Bailey found a home!

Someone's feisty.
I'm with you on the every team thing but Riders do suck. 🙂

I don't think I agree with victim shaming.

Speaking of Mike Sellers, looks like his health is failing and his family is asking for help.

Really. Were Roberts and Sellers not on the team at the same time? Pretty sure in 2002 2003 they were. And they were called Thunder and Lightning.
