17to85 Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 11 minutes ago, Jimmy Pop said: Big difference was us losing the Jets and the FLames staying in Cgy. Kids nowadays would laugh, but for young sports fans like myself the Bombers were the cool event to be at in Wpg early 2000's. Of course we cared little for the Leafs, Flames, Oilers etc. Bombers avg 27,000+ from 2000 - 2003 and we had some great years. Calgary cared little for the Flames until 04 anyway, the problems calgary faces are mostly due to the way the city grew over the past decade. Tons of money in the city and tons of people from other provinces, there was no loyalty to the Stamps and a lot of the people who did move in fall into that trap of wanting to only care about the big time sports. I run into more NFL fans in this city than I Stamps fans. I maintain that Calgary desperately wants to be Toronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, which is hilariously hypocritical as they hate T.O. , ONT. and QC with a passion bordering on irrational psychosis.

The way some, maybe a lot of fans hate the Riders, I feel that way about the Stamps. I would love to see Calgary lose this game. Sask has the no 1 offence to this point. not impossible. Best game last year was Grey Cup. watching the Stampeders eat a bit of humble pie. Very puzzling for them. So far this season the great Bo levi hasn't look so hot. Wow! One of my favorite old movies and I never thought about what a perfect comparison the 2 are.Well done Mark!(slow handclap). Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One good season and Bomber fans thinking they have a Grey Cup caliber team. Ripper isn't wrong, you're crazy if you think your Bombers team is better than the Lions, Eskimos or Stampeders. You will be fighting for a crossover spot there is no question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't you be over at riderfans crying about being banned from here? Which obviously never happened? Enjoy your second consecutive 5 win season. Although that might be giving you too much credit. If we're fighting for a crossover spot it won't be with you, it will be with the 3rd place team in the east. Your season was done as soon as you signed Kevin Glenn. Filthy, filthy Rider trash.
