  1. too early? there's this and next week of preseason...
  2. why? because you like his name? we also have a Mister and a Major...
  3. quite awhile back now. i brought it up in the preseason when Aprile was changed to Safety.
  4. The starters are set for pretty much every position on offence except maybe an import receiver spot (or two). So most of the guys that are in Winnipeg are there to earn (or keep) a backup spot. On defence, the DE spots and a few DB spots are being contested. The nominal starters will get their play time at Varsity next week against the Smelly Cats.
  5. somehow i question whether making: "this is the forum that Dave is posting in" is the optimum expansion strategy... glad it worked for somebody though.
  6. Day before the PreSeason begins... it's time to start playing with live ammo and getting some opinions registered for the official record! If you don't make your own prognostications, you won't be taken seriously when you mock someone else's... You will choose: East Standings (win/loss record optional but encouraged) West Standings (win/loss record optional but encouraged) Grey Cup Teams and Winner Most Outstanding Player Most Outstanding Canadian Most Outstanding Defensive Player Most Outstanding Special Teams Player Most Outstanding Rookie Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman Let's do this!
  7. favor to ask of those attending: anyone who is good at evaluating QBs, we've no clue who our #2 will be between Collaros and Harris. likewise, not sure which one of Gale or Portis we'd keep for the PR... any impressions (or breakdowns of their play) you could share would be appreciated so i could share them at Argofans. thx. or
  8. that should be somebody's signature...
  9. just possession (not possession with intent...)... this likely won't be a big deal, right? he was just having a last puff before the season started...
  10. yeah. they're great about that.
  11. question: at Bomber practices, when the offence lines up in full, does a team functionary walk around announcing that "the use of video recording devices is prohibited at this time"?
  12. thanks for the clarification. i was prepared to be stunned if the stadium debt interest was 2.3%... so they've factored in an expected 2.3% hike on tickets each year? my inner-cynic (and my basic understanding of the law of supply and demand) believes that will be higher if the season ticket base stays at record levels.
  13. if so, count on them running up a massive debt and tripling the size of their own bureaucracy over the next few years while giving themselves and their unionized employees ridiculous wages and benefits packages...
  14. they should pay that fan in free season tickets in exchange for that design. i love those.
  15. your tax dollars at work
  16. off principle? or is that the secured interest rate of the debt?
  17. thanks... i don't get most of that stuff but i get the gist of it. on Bing, "Bomber Fan Forum" gets Morning Big Blue two thirds of the way down the second page for me. on Google i had it second last on page 2. other than these meta-tags (which i will read up on), does the content of the site not influence the search? ie: when this site builds more content, it will pop up more often (and sooner) in searches?
  18. question for those who know about this stuff: "finding this place" has been a reoccurring stumbling block for some folks... how do we make MBB easier to "find"?
  19. sold out usually means price hike next year. great news for servicing long term debts.
  20. The Winnipeg Football Club... WFC. i actually like that name better than the Joe Louis "Bomber" thing. if nothing else, it matches the logos better. and they could still be referred to as the "Blues" or "The Blue". But having been "Bombers" as long as they have, "Bombers" they shall remain.
  21. that's going to be huge for their bottom line. it they do it right and keep those things sold out it will be a monetary bovine.
  22. i was with them until the capital letters requirement.
