Noeller Posted May 18, 2016 Report Posted May 18, 2016 The Open White Guy is every team's secret weapon.... Captain Blue and Logan007 2
johnzo Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 And then the safety would start cheating down on Pop or House ... and Murphy or Boyd would take one to the endzone. Oh for 1984, when we started eight Canadians on O and still skunked the league. We had the highest-scoring offence in the country by sixty points. IC Khari 1
Logan007 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Posted May 21, 2016 Ordered my Away jersey and got Harris's name and number. Got a Willy tshirt for free so I got best of both worlds.
iso_55 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) Until this team becomes a playoff contender & a serious threat to win a Grey Cup, I'll stick to legend's names. maybe I'll get a new #2 Clements or a #27 Raimey Royal Blues as both wore them with pride. Or maybe a #54 Minnick jersey. Great linebacker. If he had played on a better team & didn't have knee issues he'd have been up there with the great middle linebackers who played in the CFL during the late 60's & early 70's like Wayne Harris. You know, the more I think about it, the more I like #54... (He missed 2 full seasons with his knees) but when he came back for 1 final season in 1972, he switched to #52. But he was #54 in the 65 GC & all the way thru the 69 season. So I'll stick with that number. Yep, just made up my mind. Edited May 21, 2016 by iso_55
Logan007 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Posted May 22, 2016 Oh I know. But I wanted to support our homegrown Winnipeg boy. Plus the RB spot has always been my fav position. I'm hopeful that he does well this season. iso_55 1

TrueBlue Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 Jerseys are officially in store as of this morning and on the racks. All pre-orders should be ready within the next couple of days. Logan007 and Jpan85 2
TrueBlue4ever Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 Gave my friend my tickets to the pre-season game since I could not make it. She won the 50/50 draw, and has bought me a new jersey as a thank you. Road jersey, with "True Blue" name on top, #4 and, you guessed it, "ever" underneath the number. Will complement my retro "Clements" home jersey and my soon to be purchased autographed Drew Willy home jersey in last year's style. Wouldn't have bothered with the last one except for the autograph and the reduced price. johnzo, Logan007 and Rod Black 3
iso_55 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 I'd have given you some of that 50/50 money as a token of appreciation as you gave her the tickets... How much did she win?

Totally happy for both of them, that's a lot more significant amount to each of them than it would be for me, so really thrilled about it. And they also took some of from work out for drinks to celebrate and paid for my night, including dinner, and are both paying for the jersey. sweep the leg, Rod Black and Logan007 3

I'm sure there are people out there who'd have sued to get their chunk of the pie.

Rich Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 The 50/50 ticket does not come with a game ticket. Had TrueBlue4ever gone to the game, there is no guarantee he would bought a 50/50 ticket at the same time or from the same sales person as she did, and therefore it does not mean he would have won. There is no law suit to be had here. It is cool she gave something back to you. Logan007, Mr Dee, comedygeek and 2 others 5

He was going to be my good luck charm.

The equivalent would be trying to sue for lotto ticket winnings because you happened to be the reason the person was in the store when they bought their ticket. Like, you dropped them off there, or you asked them to go pick up milk at the store. Congrats to your friend, @TrueBlue4ever! (And on getting a night out and some new Blue & Gold duds.)
