Pepper_Brooks Posted July 10, 2023 Report Posted July 10, 2023 Forget the hype guy, the kiss cam is the ultimate crowd-engager! It's all about love, laughs, and creating unforgettable moments. And for fans in Saskatchewan, it's the perfect opportunity to steal a smooch from their special sibling and make the stadium roar with delight! Noeller 1

His 1st season with us (2015) was our last losing season but in year two, the pieces to rebuild the OL were in place (Stan, Yoshi, Neufeld, Couture, Chungh). Depth is what probably took the longest to build (and keeping Neufeld healthy). Don't forget Mathias Goossen... he was also a critical part of the OL turn around 17 minutes ago, Rich said: Think it's more entertainment than hyping up the crowd. It is happening during a commercial break. based on his instagram account, he appears to be Vegas based and was involved with the Knights cup run... not coincidentally, Gary Lawless was at the game on Friday... he's likely the guy that got the side sides together Bigblue204 1

It was yet another immigration issue. You mean like we have with a bunch of guys from sayles to walker to Habba? Dl do not get adjustment periods in the cfl they get thrown in pretty much right away. Even going back to guys like stove poop Bryant we’ve always thrown guys in. If you have the physical tool set and a fraction of a brain you can pretty much step in at dl in the cfl. It’s the easiest position to transition. That at rb. He’s pretty much same boat as fox and Middleton. For that we could bring back Thomas too. yeah that's a good point... it just feels like a guy we've heard literally nothing about seems unlikely to just show up one day and impress enough to start wbbfan 1

rebusrankin Posted July 10, 2023 Report Posted July 10, 2023 It was entertaining the first time. We're diehards though, if it helps pump up or attract newbies so be it. On the kiss game, I was at a Moose game years ago and the couple they flashed on was not a couple, the guy was sitting next to his girlfriend's BFF. Ackward. Noeller and BigBlueFanatic 1 1

I was just looking at the pieces we picked up in 2015/2016 to really turn things around and adding the guys who would be our OL for years to come. Neufeld was the only other piece here at that time but he was spending more time on the IR then on the field at that point. When Goossen got here in 2014, our OL was not exactly filled with future HOF candidates... it's no wonder our QB's took a beating back then!

The wave, happened in B.C. Before here. Yelling go Steelers at a bomber game, I’d agree, is goofy. saw two rough rider clad broads fighting in the old stadium. I cheered for the “Blondie”.
