Love Proulx.... English Canadians think he's dumb because of how he speaks, but I think he's actually a fantastic official. Would love to have a whiskey conversation with Osh about his favourite and least favourite officials....

I always hope for Frenchie Proulx for every game... I love that guy. Crooked hat and old school accent... just the absolute best.

do we know that it's OUR LDC game that he's calling? Could be AB or ON? in fact, since that Tweet came from Milton at the Hamilton Spectator, I'm betting it's the ON game....

Dave Foxcroft hangin' 'em up:

Re: Dauphin... Mr Mike's lounge is your best place and they also have a brand spanking new brewery in town. I'm not sure the status of TVs in there yet but that would be the first place I'd check. Mr Mike's BPs Smitty's (In that order, if the brewery doesn't have TVs yet) Also, not sure it's been mentioned yet but apparently Woogie not practicing (BOO in for him) and Gauthier hasn't practiced this week so Burtenshaw likely to get back on.

The New York Yankees.

what on earth is even going on here with this independent thread of craziness.......?

Dobson has one more year of ELC and Tui just signed a spankin' new 3 year deal late in this past off-season....

this is all I was hoping to see from him this week... just running around and testing out the foot. He'll be a bit yet, but hopefully in top shape for playoffs.

this is a really ******* weird turn in the Week Of LDC thread......

This will forever be my favourite meme. Few times I've ever laughed harder than when I first saw this.

he's BARELY a "Canadian" QB. He's about as Canadian as Ben Cahoon. That's the **** that pisses me off.

This season.... Tom Canada, Gavin Walls and Doug Brown doing everything they could and just getting zero help from the O. Glenn was hurt and the replacements were just awful.

amazing... I wish there was an archive with Bob Irving's call of that game. I'd love to listen to the second half... ha ha.

I know we've talked about this a bunch, but I'm not sure I realized that Collaros turned 35 on Sunday. For some reason I was thinking he was still like 32 or 33. So he'd be 37 if he makes it through his current contract... how old was Calvillo when he retired....about the same? It's definitely impressive to be a pro athlete excelling like he is right now, considering that age, and some of the hard miles he's got on him.

even if he just came back to play Teams and sub in a bit in the secondary for the back half of the season, that'd be outstanding. Is he still technically "ours" if he wants to come back to the CFL? nm - found it: The CFL’s NFL window dictate that Ford will need to sign back with the Blue Bombers if he returns to the CFL before February 2025, which is when his original rookie contract would have expired.

all I remember from the "We have no DC" days is Doug Brown talking about how they had to make all the decisions themselves on the field, as it was happening. There was no defensive scheme and nobody calling plays, so they just did it "sandlot" and there was so much confusion and breaking down. Total mess.

I sincerely do look forward to the receipts...

I was in favour of Daley being promoted to HC when it happened, but I'll never forgive him for Jason Maas setting that league record for most completions against our God-awful defense....

it's very TBurg of you to point out how it's going to eventually end...... *sad trombone* Don't burst my "THIS IS GOING TO LAST FOREVER!" just yet....

Yeah, that's a bit of a touchy subject, but ya.... something in the water. I've had my battles with depression over the last 5 years that could have made me a statistic and thankfully didn't. But yes, at one point Pinawa had the highest suicide-per-capita rate in Canada. Not something anyone was proud of, in a town of only 1500 people that's only existed since 1963.

Bombers back at practice on Weds, so we'll know more about injuries then. I doubt we see Grant back without at least a week of practice-but-don't-play before going back in. Would be nice to at least see him out there running around as a good sign pointing in the right direction...

that's a good line.... hat tip....
