  1. Detroit was a much better place to be until the massive auto industry layoffs, although the racial tensions were always a couple of degrees below a full boil. That's what happens with a one-industry place.
  2. The entire 2019 playoffs were a revelation, albeit stressful. We beat the Stamps- great, but Bo-Levi was not good, then we beat the Riders on their turf, thanks in no small part to Fajardo hitting the goalpost with an errant pass, but that was so close a win that I was afraid what would happen against what had been a powerful TiCat team. And then the Grey Cup came. Although the Bombers were never in any danger of losing, I hard a a very hard time believing that they could be so dominant against a 15 & 3 team. I kept waiting for the 'Cats to rally and make a comeback but they just never got untracked. Gonna remember this for a long, long time.
  3. True, but look at the recent past- Bombers lost a starting QB and played without their all-star MLB for weeks but still rallied to win it all. Walters has a way to go to be another John Hufmagel, but he has done very well in filling needs, and kudos to the scouting staff.
  4. Damn. We no longer have a Sayles force.
  5. O'Shea has had a lot of celebratory moments in his career but I would wager none will be as sweet as this one.
  6. On the cusp of a new year and a new decade, my wish for all here is that in 365 days after a year of celebrating, bemoaning and bickering, may we all meet here again in good health and peace. Sempre avanti!
  7. Why would you wish that visited upon Khari? Did he shoot your dog?
  8. Say what you will about the NFL, but their marketing is nothing short of superb. They have managed to convince their fans (brainwashed, really) that the NFL as presently constituted is perfect and the only football in the world worth watching. The games are plodding although the athletes are great, and excitement is in short supply.
  9. But but but I actually liked the lightning bolt and navy blue. I'll be over in the corner trying to go to my happy place.
  10. We won this year, not because of a powerful offence, but because Collaros was a perfect fit and played his best football, but the defence was totally dominant. We cannot realistically expect that to come together so well again. We need a better, more unpredictable offence in the new year. If that means a new QB, so be it, but I am happy that LaPolice is gone.
  11. Maybe we will see more creative use of our talent now that LaPolice is gone.
  12. Its a game of fear vs greed and ego.
  13. Hufnagel has shown himself to be a very shrewd GM, and he would trade at least one of his kids if he thought it would benefit the Stamps.
  14. Darned few would have taken Harris out of the starting role once he came back from his suspension. Agree on Wolitarski and Peterman.
  15. Hate those Saskatchewan-Alabama cards.
  16. Yup.
  17. And so could a nutless monkey.
  18. It seems to me that Christmas gifting is redundant this year, as we already have had a great gift. Regardless, my best wishes to all and sundry here in the spirit of the season and a repeat for 2020.
  19. I have several concerns about this guy. Firstly, he is wearing colours like the TiCats, secondly, every time someone called him by name, the quarterback would hit the ground, and lastly, he ought to be playing hockey in Annaheim.
  20. The big question about Nichols is the degree of recovery of his shoulder. If he is not ready to go by May, that would signal that he may not ever be the same quarterback again.
  21. But conflict requires two or more willing participants, Have at it!
  22. Not always a given. Once I think she complimented my butt when she looked at me and said,"What an ass", but I'm still not sure.
  23. From my wife- I hope it was a compliment.
  24. Doubled his salary by doing that.
