Can't see that happening. You'll have your ears pinned back ready to rattle the kid. Hope he's learned how to evade blitzes.

Probably... but in my mind's eye I just imagine some functionary in MLSE's offices receiving the cheque and then throwing it into a silo filled with a Scrooge McDuckian pile of luchre.

We don't need it as we are pretty good... but we'll continue having them do it for us anyway. You can send those support cheques to us and make them payable to "The Champions".

Oh I dunno, I figure that we're in the more enviable position these days. Enjoy guaranteed win night. Go easy on the kid. He seems nice.

You do know that was a Stubler thing here (when Osh played for us), right??

Seems somehow familiar...

I'd buy the exact same shirt, if it'd been an A instead of a W. We don't get many merch options (but it's been better this year).

Thanks guys. The email above made it sound like the Argos were wearing Orange jersey which were up for auction too. No such luck. Maybe I'll bid on the Damian Jackson jersey and donate it to MBB if I win... EDIT: seriously though, those orange Ts and Hoodies look cool. You guys should jump on those.

Appreciate it, but I'd already looked there... maybe I missed it.

Honey Garlic Pork bites sounds good. Could someone please PM me the link to bid on an Orange jersey?

Also, because I got tired of Pepper Brooks not looking or talking like Pepper Brooks, I went to chat GPT for some assistance. Bluto to GPT: Please answer all of my questions in the style of the character Pepper Brooks from the movie Dodgeball. Bluto to GPT: How should the Winnipeg Blue Bombers set themselves up to play the Toronto Argonauts? Bluto to GPT: Thanks Pepper, I appreciate your perspective on this important match for Winnipeg.

OK... someone make a Game Day Thread: "Bombers host the Grey Cup Champions' B-Team" And let the (likely) slaughter commence.

If you somehow lose against the team that's published on the Argo's depth chart today, it should be unbearable... because that would be a very ill omen for the Bombers. And there'd be no time for any niceties.

Argo Depth Chart is up. https://d3ham790trbkqy.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2016/06/Week-17-vs.-WPG-September-29-2023-PDF.pdf Sorry, I can't figure how to post the image.

And the internet...

Nahhhh... They hate each other! Pinball fosters chaos and instability in whatever he touches! Actually, when you put it that way PW, we're 21-2 since that dustup! Everyone should have sideline volatility!

You're entitled to your opinion. But I can't see how anyone watches this team and thinks that they're not having a blast playing together and generally enjoying the heck out of their teammates. You can't fake having fun. And The Chad has done some growing up. This is his team and they all know that he is their ticket to winning. Anyway, you're entitled to your opinion. Maybe we get killed so bad in our upcoming exhibition game that cracks appear in the facade. I'd love it... just can't see it.

I can't think of a bigger misread of our players than this.

I haven't seen anything from Cameron Dukes to make me think that this will be a thing. Hoping to see progress from both him and Bryan Scott in the opportunities that Dinwiddie makes for them. Last time we *really* needed a backup QB to come in and save the day worked out not too bad for us... but relying on that to happen again with an untested guy seems like a bad idea. The CFL-wide QB shortage is pretty stark when you think about this stuff.

Totally agree. Only unless the Argos are either close or somehow winning. We don't need the win, but youse guys do.

Same. Looking at the schedule before the season I wasn't happy about where this fixture was placed. Thought we'd need the win and it'd be in the midst of a 10 game no byes stretch with banged up bodies up and down the roster. But my disappointment over what may not be a very competitive game is tempered by us not having any reason to risk players who need the rest or to show your coaches our best ways that we'd line up to attack or defend. Hopefully we use the opportunity to show your defence all sorts of ways that we could line up just to see what you'd do. 34-16 Winnipeg.

Calgary. Where our Guy only played 11 snaps. (And we *never* win there) Close games? We've won by blowouts more often than not. "A dream is a wish that your heart makes" If we show up on Remembrance Day as a healthy team, I see an Argo win via curb-stomp.

Starting up with the excuses pretty early, Dave... How'd you guys make out against them?
