7 million people to draw from..... And struggling to hit 25k, which is likely largely papered.

I've been waiting on this....

further...

lol... and Farhan said they're prepared for both the cold and noise............good luck with that.

"I asked for an end to GENOCIDE, Seth...."

I'm definitely in favour of giving Helle less minutes than last year... I get that there's some guys who play better when they're more active, but last year was a bit much. And Brossoit can play... he showed that in Vegas, so hopefully he can do it here and there won't be as much stress when Helle's not in there.

we watch all the Law and Orders on CityTV, and I watch hockey on Sportsnet and TSN3, and football on TSN.......but man, other than that.... it's basically all streaming for us on Prime and Disney+. We used to have Crave but ditched that (thinking about getting it again) and have Netflix but really don't use it for much other than shitty Christmas movies (the wife) and The Crown (me)....

And has been consistently one of the most intelligent, well spoken and knowledgeable posters on CFL message boards going back to the early days of OB.com. He's more than earned my trust and respect.

Not just this year..... As Mike has said in here many times, there are several posters on this board that are more knowledgeable and are likely better writers than him. It's ridiculous.

Ya that was my thought and I hesitated even sharing it. Kolankowski as our lone OL nod. Hilariums.

It's usually a good time. We drive to Stone Angel and park there for the game. Have a pint or two there, then walk to IGF and spend a good hour in the tailgate area. Lots of fun for sure. Getting excited.... Fly out later tonight and will be hitting the breweries tomorrow for some "pre celebrating"!

If you want a good laugh, read these 3DN picks.........

We need one of those montages that's voiced by Irving that makes you wanna run through a wall.....

Based on some very real information...the other half of which is still quite likely (Steinauer has been wanting out for a couple of years and only staying for Caretaker Bob's sake... But family reasons have him leaving this offseason amid a major shake up in Ham)

It's not me... It was JBR, who does have credible info, and I choose to believe him. It's not about money. It's about family changes.

No predictions... just get the ******* win, by any and all means necessary. We aren't even close to being a fully healthy team, so it's going to have to be good old fashioned Osh-style spit and grit....

again, as has been mentioned ad nauseum, the new info is that both Walters and Steinauer (no H, folks... put some respect on an all time CFL great) have family obligations that are requiring a change in both their work lives. I trust JBR.

Also..

Trust JBR.... He knows what's up. Steinauer wants out. Big shake up coming in the Hammer this offseason.

None of the guys practicing need the reps. I don't know who will or won't be out there Saturday, but I have full confidence in any vet to play at a high level without taking physical reps during the week. In fairness you thought the whole team was doomed from the start of existence....

We can merge this with the league thread. No need for so many individual threads all the time.

As if it'll help the attendance somehow. ******* embarrassing. But whatever.... Zach will notice this. Zach remembers.

The clappers are cool for the kids I guess.... But I like to think we're just naturally an insanely loud crowd that we don't need artificial enhancements. Having said that, there are a lot of cowbells and horns, so I suppose this isn't much different. Whatever it takes to make the barn absolutely deafening on Saturday. Let's ******* GOOOOOOO...... Environment Canada page (always trust the Canadian government..................) says -3 but that BAC is definitely a minimum..... Ell. Eff. Gee.

I see the forecast changed a little for Saturday. A daytime high of -3 now with a sun and cloud mix. By game time she'll be a wee bit chilly. Especially as the sun sets. Bundle up fellas... Will be a fun one. Last I heard we were about 1500 from a sellout....
