So who won?

Yes, in hindsight I regret bashing Paul Friesen for lamenting publicly back in the Mack era that Winnipeg had no Winnipeg-born players. In hindsight, and I find this extremely difficult to say, he may have been right about that....argh...ack...I just threw up in my mouth... Those Tiger-Cars sure were a lot tougher opponents than the Tiger-Cats were in 2019...

Wow we get 5 pre-season games next year...amazing!

This is why players run through walls for this guy. Imagine Belichick or Andy Reid doing this after a Superbowl celebration?

I was at a gym yesterday where some Sun players work out and I asked one of them if MOS Jr. is coming back to the Sun next year and he said that he "hoped so", given what a good player he is. I said that I thought that I heard that MOS Jr. was going to Guelph, and he said that that was in the past, and that MOS Jr. "wasn't exactly an academic guy" lol. At the very least he said he hoped MOS Jr. would come back to the Sun in a coaching capacity, as he seems to have the same gift of motivating players that his dad has. So there's the update.

That was Roadgriller. Named himself after Matt Dunigan's TV show.

Robert Bean's wife was on here for awhile too, until we started trashing him, and then she got pretty nasty.

What was his handle, Nasty Nate? LOL

according to a certain former Winnipeg sports writer I've come to know here in Kelowna, they get some of their best stuff from this site...lol...I still remember when Jabari Arthur was labeled "the Factor" on Our Bombers, (can't even remember why he got that name) and suddenly I'm hearing Mitch on CJOB referring to him as "The Factor". They definitely read this site.

I believe that our QB at the time was Justin Goltz. There were no smart decisions with that guy. He couldn't throw a football to save his life.

Was Morris B "Nate"?

2015 was so bad that I barely remember that season. I do know that things were really looking up on the non-import receivers with the addition of Addison Richards that year. No one could compete with that hair!

So I assume that this is "full-chub" material? LOL

Before every down, Duke runs up and down the DL poking them all in the eye...

Is anyone from MBB going? Stupid question I know...

Here you go Johnny: Does that make you feel better? Pain lingers for Hamilton Tiger-Cats after overtime loss to Winnipeg in Grey Cup (msn.com)

If they did that there's a chance I might actually go there lol...

I still have O'Shea's first game ever coaching for the Bombers in 2014 on my PVR, and I still fire it up once in awhile. We kicked Toronto's butt in that game, and though we'd have a terrible season after Willy got destroyed, that game just felt different. The abject despair was gone, replaced by a feeling that we were actually starting to build on something. O'Shea had a pretty big learning curve and made a lot of mistakes, but you could feel the underlying culture shift. We were starting to believe in ourselves again. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long long time.

we were able to get CKND on our rabbit ears on the TV, but we also weren't that far away from Winnipeg. The only reasons to watch CKND in 1980 was Fantasy Island on Saturday night and also CKND had the broadcast rights to the Jets in their first year in the NHL. Brian Swain doing the play by play and Pit Martin on colour.

In my 45 years of following the Bombers, there was only one period in their history where I checked out completely, and that was the Reinebold years. I also was living in a foreign country and the internet was in its infancy at the time so it made it pretty easy to not pay attention to the Bombers. I moved back a few months before Reinebold was fired so I was able to pick up the Bomber following again in the late 1990's and of course ride those few great Khari-Milt years.

Turn me loose! Turn me loose!!

Yes - we had CBC, CTV, CKND and French CBC. That was it. And yes, we were used as remote controls as well, but hey there was Old Dutch chips and dip!

Didn't Demski also get shaken up when he was tackled on a jet sweep?

the same amount that could have told you that Jeanne Sauve was the GG in 1988. The difference being no one had Google back then, or smart phones. Our current GG is Mary Simon. And given she can't speak French, she'd keep it short and sweet at the Cup ceremony.
