GCn20 Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) I hope Andrew steam rolls over everybody except us....especially the RIders though. 3 minutes ago, Arnold_Palmer said: Hard to choose players in this day and age with all the 1 year contracts. Can't go wrong going vintage...my 85 still looks as great as the day I bought it. My Poplawski 71 is a little beat up but comes out of the closet once in a while too. The way I figure it is current players need to see that Bomber legends are never forgotten, it may inspire them to be life long Bombers knowing that their jersey might still be in the stands decades after they retire because that is the kind of fans we are.

A week ago, I had two hopes for Harris - move into the Bombers top 5 all-time yards list & move into the CFL top 5 all-time rushing leaders. Obviously he won't be doing the former but I'll still be pulling for him to do the latter. JCon and coach17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCon Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 We currently have a couple of players that will be Bomber legends. I'm still happy my son got a signed Harris jersey for Xmas. My plan has been to get a Demski jersey. coach17, Noeller, Jesse and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBBFanWest Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 I hope we'll see 33 jerseys in the stands years from now. He may not have exited gracefully, but no one can deny his accomplishments while he wore the blue and gold. Even though he's a bit salty right now, I wouldn't mind if at the end of the season, right after we pound the Argos into the dirt at IGF West, he signs a 1 day and retires a Bomber.

I'm in the same boat since picking a name for a jersey is always tough for me. In the past I would usually end up going with a past Bomber great but after back to back cups it's hard not to go with a current player (went with Willie J last time).

I hate how our favourite site here has determined to us that only 2 threads is acceptable. Andrew Harris bashing the bombers falls into a one of 2 topics. I get that we want to keep it focused but I feel we lose discussion because people don't keep up page by page and want to chime in on certain things and not others. Big stories should have their own thread. How many times this month has trapper reiterated the same story we've been discussing for pages, days later. LOL I know this was discussed in the past but maybe we could rehash the topic?

Noeller Posted February 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I like the idea of having a jersey of a player representing different generations of Bombers. I have Pop, Walby, Dunigan, Khari, Milt, DB, Stoddard, Armstrong, Roberts... But it kinda ends with that generation. I really should have got a Nichols at some point (I'm sure I'll find one on eBay eventually) and now I need one of the current Gen... I was leaning toward Harris, but maybe Demski. The wife got Bighill, so he's covered. Still pondering... We shall see. And ya, it's a huge jersey fail doing any jersey that's not a standard name and number of a current or former player. Blanks are bad, your own name is bad, anything but a former or current player name and number is bad.
