Got two tickets to Touchdown Kelowna on June 27th which is my birthday. A friend of mine is a Stamps STH & since he was going with his 2 young sons, he got two tickets for my wife & I. That should be a fun weekend. We haven't been to Kelowna since 2017 when my son was an Asst Coach with the Okanagan Sun. Be interesting to attend one of these CFL niche games. More power to Lions owner Amar Doman for trying to grow the game in BC. Unlike that trash ownership in Toronto who do virtually nothing for the Argos in Southern Ontario.

time to begin the thawing of Jamie Stoddard!!

no he doesn’t. watch him run routes, watch him run with the ball in his hands. Hes done a great job of putting up yac too. he only gets looks when cover is busted or completely off him. he can’t get open vs any cfl defender. People are soo quick to forget that clercius has caught 72 of 97 targets in his career. with 10.6 yards per catch, vs under 9 yards per for corcoran. Which is brutal. Take a look at how many wrs had under 9 ypc, and how many of them had good seasons. Over 50 guys, and one good season. Because it’s easy to catch em all, when you’re underneath the coverage and barely off the los.

Theres a reason he was only targeted 12 times. Very few of those were contested catches . For Corcoron to be effective he needs to learn how to block

Sorry to hear that 2025 was a slog for you Johnzo. Hope 2026 is much better in every way, you deserve it! 👍

We should definitely meet up for a beer Al! Will see about also getting tickets. The Apple Bowl is kind of a joke but I guess it will have to do. Not sure about TSN being able to put cameras in that dump either. Oh well.

Not sure if MBB has the strength...

I don't know why we aren't playing Clercius more inside almost like a tight end on some sets. With his size could be beneficial unless he can't block, then we also have a coaching issue

Clercius isn't slow. 4.5 speed, one of the fastest few in his draft year. Almost the same speed as Mital. He plays the spot he does because he's also outlier strong with great size and tremendous blocking skill.

Yeah, and I can’t see zach being that fragile. hes also a guy who has always tossed it up and hoped for the best. his touch hasn’t been the same for a couple years either clercius doesn’t seem to fit that either. this is a guy who stayed at his college despite them moving on to younger guys because he was way off their time line to be good. he accepted a role blocking playing teams and helping develop young guys. I don’t see him suddenly being all ego and speaking out against his qb

Do not like how he lumped Corcoran in with Clericius. Clercius is a wr with tremendous raw tools who has caught everything thrown his way. Corcoran is like Wade Miller on a low-battery mobility scooter.

In my humble opinion, the CFL, especially Commish and his team, need to do a way better job at providing an environment and market where elite players know they can carve out nice careers in the CFL and spend less time f'ing around with the rules ffs.

Not for me, I don't really pay attention to the Jets until playoff time. The NHL regular season is too long to really get invested in.

That tee shirt was from the Eastern Division Semi Final game played at Winnipeg Stadium on November 13, 1988. The Bombers won 35-28. Attendance was an embarrassment & a shock as crowds at Winnipeg Stadium in 1988 were fairly consistent all season long around 24,000. Hence, the idea for a tee shirt commemorating that game with the attendance on the front. The Bombers got on a roll behind qb Sean Salisbury in the playoffs. They took care of Hamilton at home & then beat the Argos 27-11 a week later in the Eastern Final at CNE Stadium on November 20th. Then they wrapped up the Trifecta on November 27th by defeating the heavily favoured BC Lions by a score of 22-21. in the Grey Cup at Lansdowne Park which featured DT Michael Gray deflection of a Matt Dunigan pass to an open receiver in the end zone. Not only did he deflect the pass up into the air but he caught it on the way down at the goalline to preserve the Bomber win & the Grey Cup Championship. I'll never forget that play. The story goes that the Bombers supposedly sold over 50,000 of those tee shirts. I don't know if that was true or not. There were fans that bought that tee shirt who never attended the game while claiming they did just to join the Grey Cup bandwagon. I can't confirm that number to be true or not but a lot of people did buy that tee shirt. It seemed everyone was wearing one & it was a hot ticket item for Christmas that year. I was there along with my wife as we were STH's in Sec V, row 29 & seats 12 & 13 at the old barn on Maroons Road. I never got a tee shirt, though. Michael Gray: Grey Cup hero.

So I got a belated holiday present from a friend.... One of those "I Was One Of The 12,321" shirts from that infamous playoff game. Question for the octogenarians around here... What year was that? I would have been really young at the time... I'm thinking it was around '84 right? Anyhow, got that along with a copy of Vince Leah's Blue Bombers History book from 1979. Looking forward to diving into that...

2025 was a slog for me you guys, and not just as a Bomber fan. But I'm looking forward to 2026. May the new orbit bring you all good fortune.

Just got the news that one of our friend's daughter has Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Just 38 years old with a husband & young son who is under 2 who will grow up never knowing his Mother. So, not a Happy New Year. Very sad. Our foundation has been rocked today.
