Im searching for the ignore function......

Happy for every Bomber fan here tonight. After so many years of futility, we win back to back Grey Cups. Fans now have 12 championships to cherish & we deserve it. The Bombers accomplished everything they set out to do in 2021.  As they say, these are the Good Old Days.

Do you mean in the Riders' barn?

As it went,Masoli got them at least the field goal and we lose by 1....

From what I'm reading on social media, many Ti Cat fans are viewing that kneel kinda like the Riders' 13th man. They're in disbelief.

Yup weve been though some lean ass years. Before 2019 i was 11 for our last championship. This is a great time to be alive and a Bomber fan!!

I do. Is that not where the Cup is next year?

Not a bad comparison, actually

That was a strange decision but i mean who knows the outcome even if that kneel down didnt happen. Maybe our defense, knowing a field goal wins it for Hamilton, ramps up their intensity and locks it down on that last drive. If ifs and buts were candies and nuts......

TSN would bring them into the booth to help call the game and Suitor would slobber all over them.

After so many bad eras (Reinbold, Daley, Burke) and wondering if I'd ever see the boys win another cup, this is just sweet.

I think it's hard (and thankfully so)  for our younger fans to fathom the heartache and emotional toll 30 years does to a fan. The 01 loss. The Riders loss in TO. Swaggerville losing to BC. ****. "Unfinished business volumes 1, 2,3".

It makes these back to backs even sweeter. I swear to god this must be what heroine feels  like

[Jpan85]

Funny O’Shea said in his presser he would of done same thing if it were him. The extra 15-20 yards were worth giving the point up.

Steinhauer was just asked about the kneel and just brushed it off. Just said that if they would have converted that last touchdown it wouldnt have mattered. Said he wouldnt have changed anything. Kudos to him for not making excuses or playing the blame game.

Steinhauer is a class act.

15 yards for early celebration and no Grey Cup for you

It could be put into the same category and I can see their view on it. That Rider **** up has gone down in CFL as the biggest bone headed play of all time.

[greenrider55]

Another absolutely critical play that I think is going to go largely unnoticed is Lawler’s OPI that prevented an interception. Just massive.

Tbh on the TSN highlights it looked like the returner legit didn't realize a touchback there on a kickoff gave up a point...

As soon as I saw this guy take a chug out of that toy cup I said to my girlfriend that will haunt Hamilton.

[Bubba Zanetti]

That didnt take long lol. Yikes, hope this guy doesnt become Steve Bartman II

Even though they were backbreaking, kudos to ZC for making the effort on his INTs and preventing a pick 6. That barn would have gone bonanza if that'd happened.

That's what some people have said. It's just hard to believe that he didn't receive clear instructions from the coaching staff given the significance of the  situation. I'd be really curious to know if he was just following instructions or something else happened there.

[Colin Unger]

Not convinced that the kneel is as impactful as some are suggesting. It gave them significant field position. Defense and offense would have been playing differently as well had Hamilton only been down by 2 points.
