Yes I remember every Roughrider game that I watched that year (and not all games were televised back then) the announcers were talking about "Barnagel". They were an effective one-two punch. The Bombers utilized Hufnagel in that capacity to some extent as well bringing in Huffer when Clements was struggling. The biggest example of that was the 1984 Grey Cup. I was always a fan of "mixing things up".

How about the "Forgetaboutit" line?? LOL

too early to give that line a nickname? Tofalohan? The TMI line?

never got past the first period so I'll take Rick's word for it.

ok then how about Wilkinson and Moon in Edmonton? LOL Moonkinson - I just made that up.

would like to see a bomb to Brady in the end zone in this year's GC by Strevy like we saw him connect with Harris in 2019. Always like to see Brady used more for screens and receptions, though as we saw in the Ottawa game, he's got to remember to hang on to the ball.

Still remember in 1981 when the Riders had Huffer and Joe Barnes as a two-headed monster at QB, the advent of "Barnagel" as it was called was especially dangerous with Joey Walters at SB.

of all the times I've seen the Bombers in the GC, the 2001 loss still stings the most. That would have been a great year to break the drought, all the pieces were in place...and we let it slip through our fingers...argh...

I was wondering about that too - how many times this year have the Canucks benefited from a team coming in from a previous night's game in Seattle? Of course, the Jets often get the same with a team coming in after playing the Wild the previous night...so...there's that...I guess.

Night night. What a disappointment.

7 pm start for me which is still too late.

That was the first time I said all game "I think we can win this one!"

way cheaper to watch live games in Buffalo than in Toronto.

Thankfully he stunk when it mattered in 1988.

Had to do a double-take at 36:44 when I saw an old familiar face on the sidelines standing beside Urban Bowman. He must have been "handling things internally" during this game lol...

Dunigan and Collaros had/have the same problem - they never play their best in Grey Cup games.... Man did we have a great defense in 1992...

at one point in the game Don talks to John Wells about how the day before John had done the broadcast of the national Junior football championship game (I think the Regina Rams were the victors) on CBC and I was thinking - "wow, the CBC used to broadcast games like that...what happened?"

Often imitated, never duplicated...

new Jets goal celebration, just for when we play the Canucks:

I know that I was at this game: I remember how cold it was up in the upper East side stands that day, but then the sun came out and warmed us up. Interesting to see that Terry Evanshen was the color guy. In 1988 he was in a serious car accident and it wiped out his entire memory of his life, prior to the crash.

you're 40 years too late with that advice...lol...not sure how else you handle being a life long fan of our two sports teams in Winnipeg....

Nic Petan scores the Stanley-Cup winning goal in OT of game 7 against VGK, assisted by Trouba and Roslovic....wouldn't that be something.

LOL I was shocked when I saw Fred Biletnikoff on the field for Montreal, I forgot that he came out of retirement in 1980.
