CFL Game Notes

If we lost the season the only positive would be our reign as CFL champs would be extended uncontested. It would drive our neighbours to the West of us insane(r) and we could needle them about it relentlessly. Who am I kidding? No CFL football for 2020 would suck, big time.

I would be most disappointed for Harris. I really want him to run wild and win the rushing title again this year so he can shove it in the haters faces one more time!!

Likewise.

It makes me doubly glad, (28 times over) that we won that friggin cup in November.

The real disappointment would be the opportunity lost, that is, missing the chance to win the Cup at IGF West..

I just love that we call it that. Truly awesome!

The Bombers still haven’t come out with face masks.

It seems like a perfectly natural product to have on hand. A beautiful Bomber Blue with Gold lettering.

I went online to order some but they don’t have them.

Its not too late Bomber Store.

Lets get going on this...

Most PPE's are going to front line health care workers. There's a shortage from my experience.

Of course.

But I’m not talking about that am I? 

You could get Canadian sources for “home made” masks. 

What? You haven’t seen them? 

Like these?

 

You can put whatever you want on those masks and they still look silly and I think people wearing them look silly. Now, are they helpful and keeping people safe and healthy? Absolutely. No question. But I think if it's "stay home" or "wear a mask", I'm going to just stay home. 

The problem is if you see a Rider one you & you're wearing a mask then you could suffocate when you swallow your vomit. 

If I’m going to wear a mask at all, I’d rather wear something like this:

And now we’ve been beaten to the release of theseat the Rider Store.

OK, maybe I added a little something else on the mask. With all those S’s, I couldn’t resist.
