We're making the trek out for the June 5th weekend (first full weekend of TC) just to hang and take in some camp, and I plan on posting thoughts throughout. If you assholes don't bow down and give me the credit I so rightly deserve, then so help me.....may God have mercy on your souls....

 

etc etc...

 

Can I come fan you and feed you berries while you watch or did Dave already call dibs?

Why you gotta ask questions you clearly know the answer to?

Doesn't fly with me. Should have nothing to do with the Jets. It's not like the Free Press opted to not send anyone. They sent their regular Bombers beat writer and he did his regular terrible job.

I sure hope the team doesn't bank on Derrell Johnson like we are. We need at least one or two more guys that aren't on the roster today to push that spot in camp.   Really drives me nuts how poor th

I know it doesn't help in terms of mini-camp reports, but I'll be taking a week off work again this June so I can attend Bomber training camp. I'll provide daily TC reports on here for the days I atte

I think 17 will be ok with that, but better not even think of calling dibs on the neck and shoulder massages.

Wait.. Yer coming too? Well.. NOW its a party!!

I'm definetely not looking for approval from anyone,

HA!

I appreciate anyone who puts training camp reports up, but you sir, give the impression that this is SRS BSNS and get uppity when someone else gets more credit than you do. Definitely comes across as attention and approval seeking.

For me it's all about giving credit where credit is due. That's how I am at work and it's very much appreciated by my subordinates, colleagues and my supervisors. It's not about seeking approval or attention. Different environment here I guess...
which is seeking approval... how you not grasping that?

Credit where credit is due is not the same as seeking approval. If he was posting solely for stature or perceived stature amongst over posters or to be accepted as part of a group then perhaps you could say he was seeking approval.

But giving credit is different. Giving him credit for his had work writing and posting his reports of tc etc is different. He puts in a lot of effort to share with other people and does it for the community and not for himself.

I for one would be sad to lose out on these reports because all chest pumping that goes on here a lot of the time.

Appreciate the fact that gbill, mike and other contribute to this group in ways that other members like myself can't and let it go.

anyways.. back today lurking...

It's a ******* internet message board, if you need credit for anything you are seeking approval plain and simple. Some people around these parts definitely get off on trying to be seen as important. It's akin to having a conversation in a group and asking everyone for credit for a comment that you made. You see how shallow and ridiculous it is?

It is an Internet forum, but you are pretty active on here which suggests that you find the core group of posters as friends and take pleasure in being here and discussing whatever topic is up for debate. You are getting something out of this and aren't here just because. You, I would argue, get off on arguing whatever it is you are for or against, and I've seen you flip flop just to argue against someone else.

But none of this changes that seeking approval and seeking credit are two different things. If you can't see that then that's unfortunate for as I'm guessing you tend to get locked into one world view and have a hard time adjusting that as new info come up. That's cool, but it doesn't make you right.

Seeking approval from you peers is not the same thing as seeking credit for your contribution. One is seeking validation from a group of your self worth. the other is seeking realization for the work you have done

Now I remember why I hated the one sociology class I took in university so much.

Smelling a pub night that weekend...MBB gathering.....

No microbrew! And no antiquing! :)

 

 

Wouldn't putting you, 17 and Noeller in the same room by definition be antiquing?

 

Very well played...I laughed right out loud. And death to "No microbrew".....we have these awesome stone coasters on the coffee table that say "Craft Beer Only". Isn't there some cool brew pub in Winnipeg that's got a ton of microbrews on tap? I'm all in...

Your best bet might be at Luxalune on Osborne. It's a few blocks South of one of the Rapid Transit stations that you can ride direct to the stadium, so it's convenient AND serves over 100 craft beers. These guys are affiliated with Farmery beer in some way. But you'd do yourself a disservice if you didn't stop at the Toad in the Hole in Osborne while you're nearby. Try the pretzel burger!

I'm also quite fussy.  I insist my alcohol contains alcohol.  Nothing but the best. decent. passable.  Oh who am I kidding, find a way to ferment a yak and I'm in.

I think I'd heard about that place...yeah, definitely seems like the place to check out...

I'd wanted to check out the casino where they do the Coach's Show live, and thought that'd be a cool get together spot during TC, but apparently they no longer do that set up...?? That's a shame...

It has a lot of ironic value as well, as I'm actually a 13 year old girl pretending to be a forty-something-old dude.  Speaking of crotchety old dudes, where's ISO been?

For those who fancy themselves beer conoisseurs, beers are like boobs.

Guys may profess to prefer one type over another, but when it comes right down to it, they will grab whatever is available.
