The new Rider stadium looks great but why did they ...
Rod Black replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
It's true. Toilet marketers now name their toilets. Would you believe American Standard has a toilet they named "Champion Max"? Honest. It offers superior flushing performance, moving 70% more mass. -

Rod Black replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
The stadium looks real good. It's location sucks as its within the puke pail of a city. Sorry a vomit vessel. A stinky sewer. Middle of nowhere. But maybe it's not the city. Maybe it's the people. You know, the locals that were born as a lanced boil from their mothers behind cause her lady part was too busy. -
Big Blue bud. There are a great number of assumptions in your post. Two guys have bad games and you want them pulled, but who is to say the promising prospect can perform any better than the vets? MOS gets to play the players he wants cause he's the coach. He is accountable for his squads performance, weather he uses merit, a ouija board or urine samples. Not so sure he isn't taking other considerations into play as well injuries, match ups, tendencies and strengths. Who knows? Do we? lets say the Bombers do use a merit system and green and Johnson have scored best. Then what should the home team do to have the most meritorious on the field at game day while still keeping the coaching staff accountable? sorry. But what is fatalistic thinking? i think we have to let the coach do his job. If he fails, work with him and still, if needed whack him.

Posters: Whats different this young season?
Rod Black replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Apparently what we are witnessing here is not the unique expression of Bomber fans. The fan phenomenon is not exclusive to our Blue B's but is common to all sports fans. There are those that "bask in reflected glory" and those that "cut off reflected failure". I wear my bomber gear, even after a loss. https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/fulfillment-any-age/201112/the-psychology-sports-fans -
Posters: Whats different this young season?
Rod Black replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Poster Big Blue has a very intriguing question. It becomes answered factually with data by Rich. The conclusion is that nothing has changed in terms of the number of posts given the performance of the Bomber squad. thanks Rich for the objective view. -
So he sez "oh so your Ukrainian? I alvays taught you vere a Pole Vaulter."

That offensive display on Friday, was offensive. I wouldn't know where to start to get this fixed. Out of a loss of patience and feeling desperation, I need a scape goat or two. Goat one is Willy, he no confidence to improvise. Goat two is Lapo, as it appears he gained nothing in his 5 year banishment. His offence underachieved til garbage time.

I'll have to agree with that.

BC Lions @ SaskJones Implosions (preseason game)
Rod Black replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Apparently the hillbillies love Reaves to the extent he will be the 3rd string qb. They are even stupider than they look. -

Rod Black replied to IC Khari's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
White Out referred to the Condoms. He said nothing about the Riders. Oh, I get it. You must refer to the rr's as Condoms. I had no idea that rr fans nicked there home team as Condoms. -
It's diagnosed as Polymyofascialitis.

Very nice gesture. Not taking away any credit due to him for the offer, and he will have some to pay, I would be hoping he kicks way more converts than field goals. What a great initiative.

Odds and Sods - XGame 1 - Montreal at Winnipeg
Rod Black replied to do or die's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Kevin Glenn is a CFL all star. A Winnipeg fan was sad to see him leave this city. It was great to see bobsleder Sam "mr. Physique" Giguere back with his squad. The venerable Anthony Cavillo still looks like he has few more seasons left in him. The Alouettes certainly will miss Okie bo bokie Bo Bowling. He could have been somebody. Looking forward to the Polish Prince Dave Sticky Stala coming to entertain the fans. Really impressed with Justin Medlocks headlock on his position with the special teams. He could have record numbers this year kicking them right down Main Street. -
When Mayo got sandwiched, it was surprising how he miracle whipped past those defenders.

Around The League Off Season Discussion

Truly the CFL version of "Dem Bums". -
Thanks johnzo. Kodi didn't seem to work well for me also.

BC has Crazy George hitting himself in the head with his drum stick, it's actually funny, Montreal the crowd sings "Alouette", agreed this is lame, and in Toronto skydome, they open the curtains to selected hotel suites and the stadium further cheers as a couple lays pipe.

TSN live streaming. Gotta check into this further. Brings us closer to cutting the cable tv cord, if not for the challenge of getting live sports through the web without cable. Great to have CFL on the tube again!

After a TD, I'd like to see a high diving act. For no other reason than I can complain, "I paid my six bits to see the high diving act and I wanna see the high diving act."

Royal Blue uniforms are officially back!!
Rod Black replied to bb.king's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Seems like they are trying to say they are the only ones that have soooo many cups. Like they own the trophy. The Islanders use the four bar desgnation representing four Stanley mugs, but that's a thirty team league. The Ssk group is less than original in the four bar sign. They had to steal it as well. Next they'll be saying they invented the telephone. Remember when that goof ball poster from SK posted his car photo and stated that Saskatchewan invented vanity license plates? Reminds me of the Russians during the 60's that claimed they invented the car, the phone, television, the tooth brush and hockey. -

Get a large. You can throw on layers of sweaters underneath in colder weather and it won't look stretched. Or, like many of us, religiously drink copious amounts of craft beer, munch on chips and cheese burgers during every football game, and spend each Sunday noon til eleven on your butt watching NFL and you'll gloriously grow into your Large jersey. -

Rod Black replied to bb.king's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
In the old Winnipeg Stadium, I would have agreed with you. IGF has larger seats allowing for wiggle room. To be more specific, wearing gotch or swim suits would be as far as should be allowed. Then, no problem on the plastic. But we know, going bare just would not happen. Apologies if that was the impression. Thats all pie in the sky, brainstorming stuff to try and build fan loyalty as winning seems to be a problem. byetheway, are The Gotch Men still around at games? -

Allow season ticket holders to attend games with no pants as well would be innovative, comfortable and successful! -
hefney signs 1-day contract, retires a bomber
Rod Black replied to Taynted_Fayth's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I almost forgot about his time spent toiling for our Blue and Gold. That's a nice gesture that the club would allow him to retire as a Bomber. My fondest memories of him was is his magazine and how that peaked my curiousity in in the gentler gender. A month didn't go by that the older brothers publication would go missing for a day or two. Lol. Besides the babes that he was noted for having partied and housed with, his parties sounded like a playboy's dream. The notorious clubs he opened that added to his already popular notoriety. And the iconic usage of bunny ears forever changed our culture. With all that fame and apparent wealth, I'm touched that he would choose our humble burg to say adieu. thanks Hef! In my books, your going down as one of the great ones!
