Edmonton @ Winnipeg 

No changes for the Bombers...

Travis Bond on the Bombers getting a 'reputation' for 'gritty' play  

Who'd a thunk? Bombers are ahead of Eskis in sacks 2.9-2.7 per game

6/7 cfl writers have chosen Edmonton over Winnipeg. Only Don Landry has picked the Bombers. I'd be ok with that if he also wouldn't be the only one to pick the Argos in their match.

"Definitely have to be on our Ps and Qs this week going against (Reilly). Great matchup." -  TJ Heath

"I feel like we have great confidence already."  -  Clarence Denmark

Great opportunity for the Bombers to put up a stellar performance at home in front of their fans and get all of the fence-sitters back on the band wagon to boost ticket sales going forward.

Is that with Mini-Bombers or regular Bombers? And what size is O'Shea?

Mini Bombers and a pocket sized MOS.

No, they would be full-grown.

I'm pretty sure it's -3 points for Edmonton if we block an Edmonton field goal through their own uprights.

No that would still be plus 3 points for us. To get the negative 3, the ball must go backwards through our uprights. This will be done by medlock on a fieldgoal attempt where he blasts it through for 3, the ball proceeds to orbit the earth in flight and come back through the other uprights backwards, for a 6 point swing play.

We have nicer colours and better uniforms than the schmoes. Our helmets shine. 

Bombers just said more than 30,000 tickets sold.  It's gunna get loud!

I'm in the process of explaining to the uninitiated  what the hash tag 'Fort Hew' means. These guys ar really new to the game. I'm actually pretty excited to bring these guys to their first football game ever.

I'm very in favour of renaming IGF "Fort Hew".

 

One of you social-media types get this going on Kickstarter or Tinder, whatever society is doing these days.

But Poop Johnson plays the entire game in a lazy-boy recliner.

Banjo Bowl 2015 and 2016 were sellout and wins if I recall correctly.

ok good

******* O'Shea and his shorts keeping this from being a sellout

Love "Fort Hew"......that is amazing and needs to become a thing.......

Also, re: Blocking an Esks FG  into their own uprights to get the -3.........I wouldn't put it past Derek Jones....... #JustSayin

No more home field disadvantage.....this team really needs to step up....and not back.  
This game is very important for momentum, standings, the fanbase, and most importantly.....my own personal satisfaction.
