Rich Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 It was 3 years ago today that Richard Harris suddenly and tragically passed away. Thought I'd make mention of it since this website's moniker comes from him. Great coach and more importantly, great man. Rest In Peace, Richard Harris.

Bomber_fanaddict Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Would be curious to know if anyone in the Bomber organization made any mention of him and his passing yesterday to the players and they stepped up for him last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Catan's Ghost Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Would be curious to know if anyone in the Bomber organization made any mention of him and his passing yesterday to the players and they stepped up for him last night. Why would they? How many current players/coaches/management knew or played for the man (Suber, Watson, Pierce)? I sure don't mean to belittle his memory, but I would think we, the fans, remember him more fondly than most current members of the organization...and that's a damn shame.

I know. He just had a big impact in BC then for the Bombers. Might be enough guys around to keep his story's going though. Never know. I mean they have the "morning big blue" written on the walls at IGF for players to see. I'm sure everyone asks what that's all about.

We really don't know what happens behind closed doors. As an organization they probably remember him but they must move on with what they have. The memory of the man is quite visible in the organization so I think they made a real effort to remember him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volny, Swiston, Morley, January, Greaves, Bryant, Denmark, Turner, Sears, Renaud, Suber, Vega, Watson, Wylie, Pierce, Howell, Walters, Jim Bell and countless employees of the team. I probably missed a few as well. comedygeek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
