I normally hate anything green with a Bomber logo on it but that army fatigue green is 🔥

🤮

(That is a puking emoji for those that can't see. It both describes how I feel when I see green merchandise and accurately describes the colour of said merch).

A thousand bucks says O'Shea will be wearing one.

Last meeting: Winnipeg 17 Montreal 3; July 1, 2023, at Montreal. The Blue Bombers have split their season series with the Alouettes in each of the last three seasons. A win Thursday would give them their first two-game sweep of Montreal since 2018.

Interesting that we have not swept the Larks despite our dominance over the last 3 CFL seasons.

Bombers' attire and camouflage clothing are formal wear in rural Manitoba, judging by my extended family. This hat seems destined for great popularity.

he'd wear a pair of Jackson's undies on his head if Jackson gave him a pair

 

Fly overs lack luster when it's not a jet screaming by. I mean I love planes, but without that roar it's just not the same.

It is indeed. 2019 Montreal came back on us in the 4th if I am remembering correctly. 2021 it was one of those games where we rested a ton of starters. Last year was the home game where leggiho missed two kicks.

Agreed... the best flyovers are the ones you can feel in your bones

2019 - Yes the game where VAJ took off his helmet and threw it at Bighill.  And we collapsed in the 4th quarter.

2021 - Rain storm in Montreal, and a meaningless game, considering we had clinched first place with like 5 weeks left in the season.

2022 - Legs misses a game winning FG, and then the OT FG to tie.

Thanks for the context @rebusrankin.  There was a reason I blocked these games from my memory!

Legs cost us a very winnable game last year.

These aren't the cargo planes that we sometimes get. These are training jets. 

I'm guessing you'll be able to hear them

The Bud Grant era cap they gave away earlier this year was solid. Go with that one.

More accurately... he ripped off Bighill's helmet... swung it at Bighill's helmet-less head... and somehow was allowed to stay in the game

Man. Some of that food sounds so good. I wish I didn't have IBS lol. No chance I could last after eating some of that  .

I love pulled pork but I'd need an hour in the bathroom 5 minutes after finishing 

But anyways go Bleu

Interesting note from Osh in the pre-game show about the kick cover unit... this year they've implemented a new "system" for kick covers after using the same one for the past 6 or 7 years, and it's taking longer than they'd like for the players to "click" with the new system...

see my first question is why they changed it.... because obviously there was a reason.

Who knows ..didn't seem to be a reason...just like when they made a decision last yr to "try" going with less than the norm for Dline guys...as they wanted to try something and it hasn't been really a success either...unless being very lucky a success

D Taylor asked him about returner on the pre game show too.  And Osh really had no answer...and dances around it . Said McRae has done really well....like really?? Smh
