  1. I'm actually a little surprised Manny is only 34... I would've guessed 36-37
  2. In @Tracker’s defence… “Shane” is the correct Mennonite pronunciation… so if he wants to be a honorary Manitoban he should consider the change…
  3. Only if Buck hasn’t already accepted an HC gig before that… if things continue to go well, Osh could be coaching here another ten years.
  4. Haha… I was just thinking the same thing… how does every conversation inevitably end up with an argument over Nichols and LaPo?? 😆
  5. The other problem is money... if you want a backup with experience that can actually play, you're looking at probably 200k.... Mtl got a nice discount on Harris at 175k... So @SpeedFlex27, if this experienced qb were available, which area of the team would you be comfortable downgrading to accommodate the back QBs salary?
  6. I think I lot of people forget or overestimate how big Streveler is/was... he is mighty powerful but he's only 6'1, 215 lbs... People talk about him like he was 6'5, 230... if he was, he would've never come up north...
  7. Not surprised the Bombers are leaving most starters at home... about 80-85% played the first quarter just three nights ago... don't want to over do it in pre-season
  8. Thanks for ruining the ending!
  9. Already picked my up at the bomber store Friday night… haven’t had a chance to go through it yet
  10. Just talked to the Bomber office and they said you can pay on arrival... I imagine it won't be super busy tonight anyways... thanks for all the input!
  11. Here's a dumb question from someone who has attended almost every game at IGF so far... how does parking work near the stadium? Can I just pay when I get there or do I need a pass? I only don't know bc I have a friend who lives just off University near Pembina and I always park at his house and walk... I'm bringing my 5 year old tonight and he probably won't be up for the long walk.
  12. agreed... and as long as his skate stays on the ice... there's no danger to any other players... thus it should be a good goal if they changed to "skate on ice" rule
  13. I agree... I wonder if this will be enough for the NHL to change the rule from the ridiculously vague "distinct kicking motion" to the much more logical "skate on ice"... the whole point of the rule is to protect players from skates being flung around in high danger areas... skates stays on the ice, goal is good... skate is lifted, no goal.
  14. Maybe he's not guilty of a criminal offense... but there's a pretty good chance something happened... and it gives a bad look to the Bombers and the CFL... Bombers management won't stand for that... they released him and moved on... nothing more to see here, in my opinion
  15. that's a really cool photo of Dunigan colourized with the background blurred and in black/white... where did you find that?
  16. Is there a player from Winnipeg that played on the 2015 Stamps... and possibly an alumni of this school?
  17. Tom Brady spends more money on his skin care routine the first five mins of every morning than Blanda did in his entire life 😂
  18. I wish you would stop making comments like this... yes he made a selfish decision and some people will never forgive him for it... but don't call the guy an idiot just because he made a different decision than you... you could have made exactly the same point (more effectively, in my opinion) while eliminating your first statement.
  19. Don't forget about Hewie the Moose.... RIP*... *I don't actually remember what happened to that moose that delayed the Banjo bowl a few years ago
  20. So basically Bryant has been the CFL’s MOOL for the past five years…
  21. when you're 6'6... your bones and organs weigh 200 lbs!
  22. Any time a Canadian OL is available at this time of year... I'm skeptical... anyone worth their salt is automatically scooped up by now... but we're one of the few teams that can be patient with an OL prospect... so to me this seems like a no risk, high reward move... I'll take it.
  23. If I could chose only one of Eli (assuming he's fully "cleared" to play all games) or Dobson... I'll take Eli all day... we hope Dobson will be a great player.... we KNOW Eli is a great player
  24. serious question... is it possible this could just be tongue-in-cheek and they're actually friends?...
