Tidbits courtesy of bluebombers.com and our man Ed Tait: https://www.bluebombers.com/2023/09/02/game-preview-labour-day-classic-2/ *Note: a win this weekend would clinch a playoff spot for the Blue Bombers for a seventh straight season, their longest run since a 17-year streak ended in 1997. - Zach Collaros is 6-0 in his career in Labour Day Classic games – 3-0 during his days in Hamilton, 1-0 in his one season in Saskatchewan and 2-0 in Winnipeg. In those games has a 13:3 TD-to-interception ratio while passing for 300 yards three times and over 400 yards in 2015 while with the Ticats. - The Blue Bombers are 24-3 against West Division clubs since 2021. - A victory in Regina this weekend would give the Blue Bombers a winning record on the road for the third consecutive season, matching a mark last set from 1960-62. These are the good times, folks. I hope you are all savoring them.

We came to kick ass and eat beaver tails...

Because it's time for GIFS! Morning beers?

@ (1-1) (1-1) Location: Percival Molson Memorial Stadium (Stade Percival-Molson) Capacity: 25,012 Weather Forcast: Today Mainly sunny. High 27. UV index 8 or very high. Tonight A few clouds. Low 16. Kickoff: 7:30pm EST 6:30pm Winnipeg time Kevin Glenn Starts his first game of the year for the Stamps as they attempt to keep within striking range of the 3-0 Riders who picked up a win last night. Sure it’s only week 3, but the west division has been neck and neck over the last few years. Montreal looks to bounce back after one of the worst games they have played in recent history, at least on offense. It will be interesting to see what changes the coaches and players make to their gameplan.

@ (2-0) (1-1) The first game of the week has the province of right angled borders invading the center of the universe. The Riders look to remain undefeated to start the season, as the Argos are trying to bounce back after a less than stellar effort last week which saw them fall 24-16 to the Lions. Rickey Foley will be having his first game against his old team, one that he helped to win a championship with his Most Outstanding Canadian performance in the 100th Grey Cup game. For the third straight week Geroy Simon will be on the sidelines with a nagging injury. He has yet to play for the Riders after they traded import receiver Justin Harper and a 3rd round pick in the 2014 to the BC Lions in order to acquire him. Harper was later cut by BC during training camp. Geroy signed a new contract with the Riders, rumored to be worth $170,000 plus bonuses. When will the Riders start to see some production for the pay they are dolling out? As long as they keep winning, does it matter?
