It did seem like Bo was lost. But even if I had the knowledge to analyze why, the wine in my system would short circuit any thinking.

Actually I think athletes and coaches are judged by media to be introverted when they are really just being cautious of saying something that can be twisted by the media. I am not pissed by the Bombers losing in 1972 but I am still mad at being misquoted by media in 1992.

Is there going to be enough sow to make snowmen or even snow angels?

I don't remember that but he is a coach now isn't he. He must have got over the introvert stuff.

I like Zach but he does not have the form that TC had. I don't actually know if he had good form but it looked like it back then. He was deadly on the run which is not little thing. Zach is not at that level but nostalgia also distorts like beer goggles. This is so fun thinking about the good times instead of recent failures. I have never felt older. Damn you all.

Mr Roberts was in a time warp. He thought he was in the 50's and the football thing was side gig. Who needs to train?

Funny you went there. When I saw that "blows" thing I thought I usually just bet a ten spot but hey to each their own.

Me too. Undiagnosed to be sure but oblique strain was not fun at all. I also have some back issues since I was 10 so pain is not unknown.

I beleive an in game group hug with the defensive line would help make him feel quite different.

Looking at the roster for 1972 I definitely remember the names like Mini Mack and Big Bill Frank and Don Jonas too but I can't remember individual games. I tip my hat to your holding the bitterness for all that time. I predict you will have release this weekend. You can laugh this Sunday like I am sure we here all did last Sunday.

I thought it was obliques ie abdomen but the same applies. Everything involving throwing or running is going to be affected by oblique problem. If Fajardo has oblique problem I can't see him being effective at all. Even his little spin wouldn't work as well.

Luckily none of us are playing. We can be as overconfident as we like. The best parts of being a fan is bragging about something you don't contribute to and watcing the other fans cry.

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
I don't follow NFL much but I know the Patriots lost and that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy but not as fuzzy as I am going to feel watching the Bombers drinking wine and chewing some classy finger food.

2019-20 CFL Offseason
For MLSE this is not a lot of money. Leafs and Raptors are huge moneybags. A little coin spillage would deal with Argos salary issues. The embarassment of empty seats is more of an issue.

2019 CFL Season: Around the League
You and anyone who has done addition and subtraction as well as watched a few games.

GDT - Little Kitties @ Blue Bombers
So you are first in line for the inevitable outrage over some dirty shot. Well played sir (or madam).

My bet is that there is a bunch in a third world country used to line the chicken coop.

Best Content in the CFL
That was great. I am amped for the game. What I still have to work...

What do you think of the state of CFL football?
Sure the rules have swung too far to the offensive side of the ball but the casual fan prefers offense to defense so the customer is almost always right.

Bombers Ring Of Honour
Over 20 years ago I lived on Clare Ave a couple of houses down from Bob Cameron who was living in the house that the Riverview park head lived in (Winnipeg history). You could see huge cracks in the foundation and walls. If he got that thing in livable condition then he was as good at renovations as kicking. I was too shy to talk to him. I always feel like a kid fan instead of a grown ass man.

looking ahead-LDC
I am leaving for the cottage in the morning and I sure hope I can get CJOB reception. The cottage is a house in the woods with no cell coverage (I am not roughing it at all) and I will get the internet set up on Tuesday but its frigging Tuesday.

Bombers release Chris Matthews
I had plenty of games like that in the early ninety's but that might have been due to do with pre game pitchers of beer and guacamole at the Chi Chi's.

Does the name Mike Kelly ring a bell?

Andrew Harris suspended for 2 games
If the contamination is hit and miss then even testing might not show unless you test a large number and who is going to pay for that. He has already taken responsibility for taking a non certified supplement. He has not suggested that someone spiked his coke (although Ben Johnson might have had a point there)

Bombers release Chris Matthews
Mini Mack was the best addict that the Bombers employed to the best of my knowledge. I don't remember him going green but if he did I probably would have wiped it out of the memory banks with the Men in Blue pen.
