Good news is that if everyone is a cancer then it can't get any worse. Nobody left to infect.

Sorry, just a little down home banjo pick'n fun left over from the weekend.

Pie's not in the oven yet but something smells good.

Jones is doing a hell of a job out there.

I think the Banjo Bowl is a terrific name. When Brad Wall responded by playing the banjo I though I would die from the laughs. Good natured fun is all. And I won't wreck this thread with stories of ...

Sorry I really meant a good old days type of thing. John Helton was a great player. Dieter Brock had unbelievable arm. Bombers win big tomorrow. out.

Also I recognised him. I wasn't about to ask him to sign my towel.

It was his athletic physique and stuff that I was in awe of not his skin colour. There were plenty of other naked black men there at the time as it was training camp. I will admit my small hometown only had 1 black family when I lived there in the 70's. He was my dad's favourite car mechanic and I never saw him naked but I had met black people before if that is what you meant.

I know we were talking about Dieter but the Washington talk reminded me that Washington did well in those skills competitions that used to aired. I think CTV did them before the season if I remember it correctly. I remember Washington was wickedly fast in those competitions. I remember a golf cart with a net for the QB's to throw at as well.

It turns that both are correct. Popp has been waving the flag all season.

I don't think he will be annoyed if he catches a TD. Whoo I will pour myself another drink if that happens.

I hope you aren't upset because of the mocking. Like all good mocking it works because it is ridiculous. Saskatchewan and Manitoba are more similar than any other two provinces this side of Quebec. Lot's of agriculture in our economies although I do envy SK having more natural resources not to mention their per capita GDP blows ours out of the water. We can yell louder though.

I am more worried about the potential danger to BB players from his history of reckless and dangerous play. His crazy political views should be kept to himself but I am sure there are plenty of crazy views by players that you wouldn't agree with who just keep quiet.

That was my recollection as well but he was outstanding on those sweeps. He beat the defenders to the corner on a regular basis. those plays on the wide field are kind of dramatic because even the uneducated fan like me can see the play develop and how the defence reacts.

I don't think the old guys will be forgotten. Didn't the team send out a list of candidates that included Fritz Hansen? You can't get much older than that.

Scary not creepy. I think his best years were in Calgary if memory serves me correct. I am not near old enough to remember Jack Jacobs.

There were a lot of tackles by the neck back then. I never remembered that but it seems pretty reckless from today's point of view.

Anyone out there know about QB mechanics? It seems to me that Brock threw leaning back a lot even when the ball is travelling 40 yards. That is serious arm strength. This is the time where I started going to games and the names and numbers started flooding back. Was that Bobby Thompson I saw in there? I don't know if this was the year the training camp was at the u of M. I remember the team was showering up in the change room when I was playing squash or raquetball. John Helton was one massive muscular naked man. If he saw me he probably thought I was staring just a bit too much but I was in awe.

Except for the liver.

With the right demographics you can make more money on concessions than tickets, if I remember the good old days correctly.

self evidently rider fans. who wears a football jersey in Hawaii. Rider fans.

Definitive proof should shoot down the conspiracy theorist. Those photos are much better than the grassy knoll. Pretty clear that contact and even grabbing was done. Green whiners come to IGF and accept reality. That is all.

Seeing as how he was off by 2 , those numbers won't help much.

Exactly the same from me. If jones had a Challenge left (if only the CFL headquarters hadn't changed the rule knowing it would screw the riders) repeated review would have showed the hooking action. The arm was hooked and used as was mentioned before as leverage to pull in front of the receiver to make the interception. The call would have stood the review and even more steam would be blowing out Jones's ears.

Did you mean boggles or bottles because I could imagine the pickling effect of listening to the conspiracy theory. This is a pretty elaborate conspiracy as it included a ghostly hand pulling the challenge flag out of Jones pocket after he watched the replay of an obvious no catch that happened to occur in the end zone. I know I was a little pickled anyway. Polish potato vodka mixed with various juices works admirably as a pickling agent.
