Thank you Bombers for giving me another thrilling year to enjoy and thank you Morning Big Blue for giving me a place to share anguish and joy.  Can't wait for 2022 to start.

He was a pretty miserable guy but to be honest I didn’t really have a problem with him. He was if anything entertaining.

Well it was great fun with regard to Lyle (Morris of Osborne St.), until the other Lyle (Bauer) threatened to physically acost him and punch his lights out......Whatever happened to Morris (Lyle) anyway.....He seems to have fallen off the map....or did Bauer scare him out of the province

Maybe when Bauer challenged him he went to Canadinns and stood by the polar bear statue with Bauer’s number on it (“Big Blue”) and got tired of waiting for Lyle to make the first move, so he gave up. 😂

A guy called “Nate from Cleveland” called in to Bob Irving’s Grey Cup postgame show on Sunday. Wondered if it might be him? One last thought, his penchant for trying to give players nicknames that no one else would adopt. The whole “Bobo” man-crush thing was kind of weird (was it Matt Sheridan he tried to attach that moniker to, or Dave Black, or someone else?). 

Morris aka Lyle aka Gonzalez aka three thousand other names was something that is for sure.

Some of the people I always got a kick out of were the ones who were completely full of **** but act like they were the absolute authority on everything... There was Tuscaloosa Blue a few years ago with the fake training camp reports... and then recently (I'm already forgetting his screen name - Thanks for reminding me it was Polar Bear) the guy Polar Bear who was an expert on covid, broadcasting, and regularly partied with the Bombers since he was Harris' neighbour... what a clown he was... my favourite post was when (I believe it was) @blue_gold_84 made a list of all the things Polar Bear claimed to be an expert on in the 2 weeks he posted here... I know these people are toxic for conversation and misrepresenting facts... but I always find their schtick funny

Anyways, thanks to all of you guys here... when I talk to my family and friends I pretend like I'm some kind of expert on the Bombers b/c of the great knowledge and experience I read here... too many to list but guys like @Booch, @wbbfan, @Mikeand @SpeedFlex27 are so great for conversation and knowledge about the team we all love. Thanks guys!

Polar bear was that renegade poster (*cough* troll *cough*). If this is the post you mean, I’m glad you liked it, but credit to the whole board for drawing out his lies.  It takes a village.

lol my god people here enjoy arguing. 

As do you apparently. 

For those scoring at home, in 12 hours we have learned from his own posts on various topics that Polar Bear:

1. Knows how to hack into live feeds of American networks to get free streaming of sports programming

2. Is a 20 year vet of Ebola and SARS research in a virology lab

3. Is connected to many major US broadcasters and therefore has insider rankings of most of not all sports play by play guys and their reputations within the industry 

4. Has relatives at HNIC and therefore has access to management hiring memos

5. Spent time in New York in a top secret COVID lab under government control operating under a cone of silence unable to share his findings with the public

6.  Is ostensibly a computer graphics specialist who knows how to debug in game productions

7. Has a trusted working relationship with a number of the Blue Bomber players and has the inside track on the injury situation with the club

and because of his concern about the amount of arguing on a fan site, I can only assume -

8. Is an ebony pot having a conversation with a kettle

I think it was MOBomberfan’s retort that you liked so much on Polar Bear’s rankings. Made his own list of “achievements”. Brilliant. 

Does anyone have a link to the thread of him saying he was hosting parties for the blue bombers that’s hilarious lol! That guy who made the fake training camp updates was totally bizarre.

it's Llamicus and Furbelly that I miss most on the boards, but I like to think Dave and I fill that role now, to a certain degree, tho those shoes can never adequately be filled.

Yes, but now the senseless death of an onion, the environmental disaster that is sour cream, and the carbohydrate diabetes machine potato offends people so to be PC you must look guilty when you eat them.

Well, at least he had a thick skin and didn't run to try get mod help whenever someone disagreed with him like a certain Gbill character.

He never stopped. Remained as the sole member of OB until Colin invoked the mercy rule and pulled the plug on him. He has popped up occasionally on TEP and gets chased out pretty quick.

FYI Nasty Nate is Lyle E Style on the CFL.ca forums, which by the way is as brutal as the comments section of any newspaper. 
 

NorthCarloinaBomber I thought was the solo last poster on OB

NCB was Tuscaloosa I am pretty sure. Just populated the forum with several accounts so he could talk to himself. I would go back occasionally just to read his insane babbling.

Now I understand. Thanks for the explanation but no apology needed. I didn't make the list but I did call out his BS. 🧐

That PolarBear troll was insufferable during his brief time here. That ban couldn't come fast enough.

No, no misunderstanding from me. I compiled all of his claims of grandeur in case it wasn’t clear how ridiculous he was getting. Then I re-compiled them with the not-so-hidden message “Full of ****” acronym since he thought my first post was too subtle. MOBomber then wrote his version of his own accomplishments as satire (I own 9 cars, married Miss Universe) which I think is the post you found good and meant to compliment. For those that asked, if we want to re-live the nuttiness, here is the link to that topic (although I am loathe to resurrect a dead thread most times).

Was the training camp guy a pretend Mike Kelly?
 

“See you at the Wave!”  🤣

What happened to the American guy who came here with his son in 2019? Wade set them both up with swag and seats. 

 

I miss Hootie 

Just now, Mike said:

I miss Hootie 

I miss KamauPetersonfan

It may not have been exactly like that but it was close.

I honestly thought that was you for awhile, Mike.

For the record, Nate, and his acolyte Area 51 are currently polluting threads on CFL Forurms.....

Yup, you dudes at OurBombers.....

I still chuckle at a few musings by Nasty that were actually quite funny''''I think it was on the stumps board and the talk was about their management personnel and one poster wanted to know what happened to a particular coach.....Nate's comment was....'oh they just made him vice president of standing around'....Lyle E Style could be funny at times.....and then become quite annoying...I think he has infested every CFL board in the country lol

Furbelly is a great dude.

I started out on our bombers as a 12 year old back in the early 2000’s. Found this place in 2012 as a young adult. Probably went years where I either just browsed or posted seldomly. I recognize a lot of the old usernames from the old site, a lot of great new posters from this site. I’m now 30 years old and me and my girl friend bought our first house together last year and I think I’ve had to sacrifice some of the things such as going out to watch the game, or going to all the games, so I’ve really grown accustomed to watching the game at home and having a beverage, with MBB in the background so I can chat with you guys. It’s a hell of a journey and a great community to be a part of!

This is my story as well, turn 29 in January. Was on ourbombers as a literal teenager.

Love this community. Cheers to another bb gc
