  1. It wouldn't surprise in the slightest if the next generation of consoles are capable of photorealistic graphics in real time, paving the way for true virtual reality.
  2. You can see the difference between a team that plays for themselves vs. playing for each other. Banks and Lawrence don't embody the latter and that was evidenced by their demeanour late in the game last night.
  3. Here we go again.
  4. At 37 myself, I can relate to this completely. I was 6 when the 1990 team won and don't really remember that game and had to rely on YouTube videos. My Dad always speaks glowingly of the 80s Bombers and his fave all-time player Tyrone Jones, not to mention other Bomber greats from that era. Even the early 90s had some good teams but then things got ugly. 2001 is still the most disappointing season for me. I thought that was the year and the way they lost that GC was just gutting. 2007 didn't have the same feel and Glenn breaking his arm in the EF made me lose hope. 2011 was whatever. LOL I feel like the 2016 season was a turning point in that this regime finally had the pieces in place and that winning culture was established. 2019, with its challenges and trials, helped cement the team at the right time - and they've never looked back. This 2021 team is the most special group I've ever been fortunate enough to see in blue and gold. The leaders of this team - coaches and players alike - are nothing short of legends. And best of all: the pain and hardships of those failures past matter no more. Back-to-back champs!!!
  5. It looks pretty ******* excellent! Best part is the Bombers beating them in the 2018 WSF and Jones hightailing it outta SK shortly after. When poaching goes wrong. And it couldn't have happened to a more deserving organization.
  6. Downloaded this on Friday and gave it a go. The visuals are what make it worth playing. UE5 is unreal. https://www.theverge.com/2021/12/13/22831965/sony-ps5-covers-faceplates-colors-new-controllers Better late than never. I'm still disappointed black wasn't offered at launch.
  7. Absolutely a classic, IMO. Momentum swings, big plays, lead changes - this game had it all. And on the biggest stage. Last Sunday had some memorable moments but I wouldn't label it a classic by any means. I'm still just in awe of this team. Going back to back in such impressive fashion...
  8. I'm pretty sure the entire province of SK would just implode and become a massive sinkhole.
  9. Imagine cheering for a team that's only only won four times in 108 years but then acting like you're the greatest ever.
  10. 29 years with a handful of "almost but not quite" runs and some real heartbreakers in there (2001 and 2007). And now they're back-to-champions and the class of the CFL. I think it goes without saying we're in a golden age with this franchise.
  11. Absolute clown of a colour commentator. Did he also say something along the lines of "the good guys" tonight when the Ti-Cats made a big play...?
  12. Cup defended!!! What a game! So many ups and downs but this team never wavered and they pulled off an incredible victory tonight in Hamilton. Back to back champs for the first time in my life. This team... This group of guys... Legendary.
  13. Defending champs sure cleaned up last night!
  14. Turning the CFL into a four down league would be absolute stupidity. **** that.
  15. "But both sides are being hostile!" Yeah, calling a stupid person stupid is not the same as threatening a reporter or their family.
  16. He's pretty damned good at goaltending.
  17. Ugh, that clown's Twitter feed is a dumpster fire of covidiocy. And the cherry on top? The pinned tweet at the top of it is a PPC candidate's.
  18. Even if he does get cleared to play, how will he be anywhere near 100% playing at such a key position on that D-line?
  19. https://www.cfl.ca/2021/12/10/report-laurent-could-miss-gc/ That's a huge loss in the trenches for the Ti-Cats.
  20. Just saw Bailey's TD from the 4th quarter in GC107 and the command centre overturned that pretty quickly to an incomplete pass. Last Sunday, Williams' crappy catch gets upheld by the command centre. Bewildering.
  21. Solid road win last night. Connor had a great game and Hellebuyck getting his first shutout of the season was a nice bonus.
