*See the recent Blue Bomber model. 

 

Good Job Bombers! Our kids are now Jet fans, NFL fans, even frickin Blue Jay fans, not much concern by that demo it seems for the CFL. Constant losing can do that ...

 

For me, just watching with my dad starting in the late 80's. Having Matty and Gerald Wilcox helped as a young teen. Heck became a Packers fan due to Favre.

I didn't know your father played for the Blue Bombers. That is cool. 

LOL! 

the kickers have been smoking poles all season long. that'll cost us a few tickets next year

Who ... has been doing ... What?

 

Oh never mind. Not going there, don't want to know.

lol.

I started watching the games with my dad. I WISH he had been a Bomber.

Me too! But the first game I remember is not a Bomber game. It was the '76 GC. I was 7 and I was hooked on CFL with that game.

Fans need to get excited... Not depressed..

We have no superstars and rotate mediocre guys in and out. What is there to cheer about?

Cheer if not for any other reason other than you want to support your team. We don't need a team of Stegalls or Robertses to get fans excited.

Are you on E?

Maybe if we had no Jets then maybe...but come on now the biggest thing the Blue have been famous for the last 5 years is a beer snake.

You see way more people with Roberts and Stegall jerseys then anyone they have now.

The team needs stars and wins before most of the city will give a flying fack.

I dare say most of the people going to the game are going mostly for a night out and don't even care about the Blue.

It began for me when I was working my summer job with Canada Packers on Marion Street and meeting Minnick, Miller and that group as they were coming off the practice field. Seems to me that players were a lot less arrogant at that time. And Joe Critchlow was a neighbour for a while.

Hi. This is Joe Critchlow’s son,  Joel. Just surfing around this evening. Great to see Dad still remembered!

Now...trying to figure out which neighbor you were. :)

Joe Critchlow was a great Blue Bomber.

 

Given that this was 2015.....must of missed this thread completely, as there was no Do or Die exclusive rant in there.

This thread has not aged well.

Bought my first seasons in 2006, not knowing what Doug Berry would bring to the table. Couldn't possibly have cared, either, because we were just elated to be able to see the Bombers play live 9x a season. 

 

I just keep thinking that we've been through hell and back for this long already, why give up now? Someday we're going to be rewarded, and it's going to be epic.

Well at least this aged well. And epic it was.

You are just saying that because you are a Winnipeg Blue Bomber ass kisser. Seriously though, Gbill is the LAST guy that should be talking about kissing Blue Bomber ass. He used to wait outside the entrance of the stadium after practice and run over to the players as they were leaving and beg for selfies with them.

What a different organization this is from 4 years ago. The canadian mafia had some rough patches but have taken us from the dregs of the league to the pinnacle club (badum tsss) Feels like we have more talent going to nfl camps this year then in the previous 10. Our coaches and front office types are lead candidates for jobs with other teams. 

I feel like the league as a whole is ebbing in the same direction as well. Tv deal, finally the als have been fixed, less and less cancers in league management/coaching. Great time to be a bomber fan, and a cfl fan.

Regarding league cancers. We need more John Hufnagels & Kyle Walters & less Chris Jones & Roy Shivers types running teams. The CFL has to be more professional than it is with upper management.

+ maas and hervey. 

Certainly we need GMs that are much more professional. Not guys like Jones who make up the rules as they go along & cheat. Guys that are qualified to do the job.
