"I ******* love this city" 😂

It was "I f***ing love this team", and I didn't notice it, but my dad said Wade just gave him the the dirtiest glare after he slipped that one up!

Totally the imposter that I saw...

When I heard that I thought WTF are you talking about? Now I do believe that you are correct in saying that he cut all ties and allegiance with the Argos. 

He might be referring to the old Hamilton boat incident also. At Canad Inns but.. Maybe its a argo reference

Strevler did the Kawhi laugh, i have no words. This team is awesome 

He's been doing that since Sunday night. The man is a goddamn beauty.

The CFL needs more guys like Chris Streveler. He's essentially a CFL version of Gronkowski.

Am I reading too much into Osh's "we burned the boats" comment? 

I think his loyalty is here now.

I agree. That comment seemed to have a double meaning.

This parade was absolutely epic. The happiness was palpable. The energy was incredible. This celebration was long, long overdue.

Props to Nichols on that absolutely priceless T-shirt.

He has been doing the laugh all season! I have a video clip on my phone of him and Wolitarsky doing it on the bench after Strev ran in a TD in the early weeks!

Nah it's a saying you'll see in success literature. 

It was attributed to Julius Caesar (or Cortez) when he arrived on an Island... found that his army was making arrangements to go back home... so he burnt the boats. Got 100% renewed focus from his men from that time on.

Basically take away the safety nets, remove any excuse to turn away from the task at hand.... singular laser focus.

Really Winnipeg... Lucky Lager?  Do better! 🤣

Well, they were downtown. Usually the best you'll find near Portage and Main is Stone Cold.

On the streets? No way, you're getting Molson Special Dry in the king can. That's the choice of day drinkers downtown. 

I don't know. Nothing classier for our downtown dwellers than beer in a plastic 2L bottle.

Facts.  Leaving the office yesterday, I passed by an abandoned toy stroller that still had its precious cargo inside... a king can of special dry!

No doubt, you can pass that baby around. But, if you're a day drinker in the dt, you need the portability of a king can in a paper bag. You need to start working on collecting funds for the next beverage.

Ah, I miss 213. 

Thing about this Bombers team is what a bunch of characters they are, despite being so "buttoned down" all season long.

They're that way, but there's another side to quite a few of these guys.

Great personality stuff we, or at least I,  never saw at all, being let out after the championship.

I Can not imagine what it's like to be on this team, must be such a great feeling.

The Harris "You got my back" thing was dope AF 

He did it at the grey cup after party in Calgary too. There are some crazy stories from that but the best 2 are when Harris brought the cup down to the party and passed it around with the fans.

And then when we were leaving the grey cup, Streveler was outside with a couple girls and then looked at us and yelled "we ******* did it" hugged me and my buddy. After that yells holy **** that hurts, the freezing has worn off and I need a drink.
