  1. Do the Bombers still have a basketball & hockey teams like they used to? I remember the Bombers would play high school junior & senior high basketball teams back in the day. Some of those guys could really ball. My friend was an all star forward for Churchill High School in Grade 12. He ended up playing for 4 years at the University of Winnipeg for the Wesmen so he was a serious player. I guess a couple of Bomber players also were very good basketball players & they schooled the Bulldogs. There was a photo in our yearbook of my friend with his hands on his hips looking pissed off as one of the Bombers was doing a free throw. The hockey team played in the media league. There were a few media guys on that Bomber team as well. When the Bomber basketball team came to a high school it was a big deal. The gym would be packed wherever they played.
  2. What is wrong with Oliveira & Demski?
  3. From one Albertan to another. If you don't like it...
  4. Well, that's not good.
  5. Meanwhile $600 one way to Victoria.
  6. Amazing how this just fell off the news cycle. The 4 or 5 people coverinng the CFL for the media & Argo fans have moved on. MLSE were counting on it.
  7. Did Kelly practice with the Argos today ? No word anywhere about it online.
  8. It was the coach's decision to play him in the Grey Cup.
  9. Yeah, this can't continue. The Argos will bow to pressure & tell Kelly to stay away as he should. John Murphy should lose his job.
  10. Only the Argos can say a suspension is not really a suspension. The blow back on this is going to be monumental. And according to Clemons, the CFL & Big Leader Commissioner Randy Ambrosie says it's okay??? What garbage.
  11. What a big F U to the rest of the league & the safety of women in the workplace by the Argos.
  12. Something tells me Miller wouldn't get within ten kms of any protestors. John Murphy should be fired AGAIN for being the biggest ******* in the room next to Kelly.
  13. Because it's the arrogance between U Sports & the CFL. That just tells you just how close they work together to make something actually work.
  14. It's raining cats & dogs here in Calgary!!!!
  15. Well, the season starts around May 25th so if these protestors entrench themselves at Percival Molson Stadium, then what?? Also, I'm concerned about Princess Auto Stadium as it's on the campus of the U of M. What if protestors in Winnipeg do the same?
  16. Ownership in YYC is too cheap. The owner (Murray Edwards) is a billionaire living in Switzerland so as not to pay Canadian income tax like you & I. He won't spend a penny on football operations. Living here, the Stamps are a true football wasteland. You don't even know if Calgary has a CFL team. Edwards could turn things around so fast if he wanted to but alas, he doesn't. The Elks think private ownership is the Holy Grail. Sure, if you have someone who cares like Omar Doman in BC but then you have private douchebags like Edwards & MLSE who don't. It's a roll of the dice.
  17. Pro Palestinian protestors have taken over Percival Molson Stadium. Sounds like they're not going anywhere. Cops have decided to do nothing but observe. Organizers say it's like their own city. So, how does that affect the Alouettes training camp & (at least) their pre season game? Can they move to Olympic Stadium or are they working on the roof?
  18. "Argos or Lions...." ("Argos or Lions")... If the Argos signed Rourke, Kelly would be gone soooo fast.
  19. Name another fringe player who had 6700 fringe yards rushing & 4000 fringe yards receiving & scored 78 fringe tds? I doubt that you can. The other fringe players must have at least or better than ten thousand all purpose yards & nearly 80 tds during their career, so good luck. As far as championships go, just because Milt never had one, doesn't mean it's meaningless. What about when the debate turns to all time greats at qb, the lack of or the number of Super Bowl or Grey Cup wins is always front & center, if it's not important? After all, (mostly younger) fans say that Brady was better than Montana & is the all time GOAT becausse he won 7 Super Bowls & Montana 4.
  20. I respectfully disagree with you on Drummond. Four Grey Cup victories. The 2000 GC MOP. What jumps out to me are his TD numbers with 78. That means Drummond was on the field all the time. He wasn't a situational player. He was an every down back. There aren't many players in the history of the CFL who scored that many touchdowns. There are more like Pinball, Reed & others but that is a ton of TDs Drummond scored. You may not agree which is fine. You're entitled to your opinion. To me, he is a Hall of Famer.
  21. Sure, a part timer who scored 78 touchdowns & had over 10,000 all purpose yards. Uh, huh. Yeah but it kinda does.
