I couldn't handle losing to those assholes among those "fans"...Mentally, I just couldn't handle it, so I don't go. Calgary and Edmonton is bad enough.... sat through so many beatings. One year at Commonwealth, we had the stupid ******* mascot all over us beaking and what not...... thought i was going to die from rage overload.

I am forever terrified of being the guy in the opponents jersey when the home team embarrasses us. Like, I don't want to be the guy in the jersey of the team that finally let Edm finally win a home game.... ugh. I have spent enough time in both Commonwealth and McMahon where the Bombers got embarrassed and I had to hear all about it. Terrified of that tomorrow......but still have confidence in the fact that we're just flat-out a much much better team than Edmonton, so it SHOULD be okay........

I have been in alberta for 16 years and have witnessed a lot of losses haha. But over the last few years I haven’t seen a loss live so I really want it to stay that way tomorrow! 4 minutes ago, Noeller said: Curious what the crowd is like tomorrow night.

We had 5 tickets right behind the bench and I added another 7 without any questions. I talked to the sales rep about getting 7 more and he didn’t even charge me for them because they are just wanting to get fans in the crowd Noeller, Wanna-B-Fanboy and JCon 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this week my presence at Commonwealth isn't a curse............ I feel like there will be more bombers fans than Elks fans Do the Elks have a home win in their brief history? I feel like they haven't for some reason. I'm 80 percent confident we win tomorrow regardless and I say 80 cuz there's always a chance we could lose, turnovers, penalties, distracted by the huge empty looking stadium.

Noeller Posted August 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 here's hoping fellas! Got a fun couple of days with "work" east of Edmonton, and would love to kick it off right with a great time at Commonwealth tomorrow night... super weird going by myself.

Arnold_Palmer Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 I was at the Bomber game last Thursday and I was disappointed by the lack of “BC sucks” Chants.

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 3 hours ago, bearpants said: the lack of DL rotation makes me nervous... not just for in-game replacement... but for wearing out Jeffcoat (and Willie, for that matter) in the early-mid season... I'd rather Jeffcoat take lots of snaps off now and be ready to go 100% in November... As for the NA rule... let me see if I have this correct... from Edmonton's perspective (because they are actually using it)... Ealy will "start" the game (i.e. play one snap) then sub out for Ceresna... then throughout the game, the can run Ceresna and Ealy for 23 snaps, as Ceresna would technically be subbing in for Canadian starter Nelson at that point... seems like something we should be using... Flipping that over to us... we could list Walker as the NA... "start" Fox... then play 23 snaps with both of them as Walker would be subbing for Thomas... Walker doesn't have the tenure to be nationalized. They should be doing it with Bailey and Jeffcoat though.

I was in BC for the big playoff collapse in 2016, the Medlock 61 yard fg attempt one where we blew a 25-6 halftime lead. as the kick landed 5 yards short, some drunk BC fans actually apologized to me with genuine sadness because I guess I looked that devastated.
