Game Day Thread- Week Twenty, GAME 17: Calgary @ Winnipeg Blue Bombers October 13th, 20126
Stamps radio crew adamant Rodgers did have control & survived contact. even though he didn't have control according to the officials who kept yelling that at Dickenson. The radio crew is being biased as they would have heard the official yelling as the host was back in Calgary watching on television.. The host kept saying the only way the call would be upheld is if the officials didn't think Rodgers had control of the ball knowing darn well that is what the officials were saying to Dave Dickenson. He was trying to look like a football expert by saying that & not being forthcoming. The radio crew in Winnipeg wouldn't have known what the officials were saying that so they kept saying he had control. The host Jock Wilson is one of those sports on air smart ass commentators. Didn't surprise me he'd say that & not tell the football announcers at IGF what was being said.

No, the little dance standing on the bench. He'll say Nichols should stop hotdogging as he missed 2 deep passes to open receivers while Streveler deserved it for getting all those first down yardage.

Hartford would be a better draw than Carolina. Don't know why they don't upgrade the arena in Hartford & bring them back permanently.

IIRC, he was upset at the NDP because his Workers Comp claim was denied or he wasn't getting the benefits he thought he deserved. The only thing theses 2 guys have in common was that Winnipeg Guy was angry.

Tweets today saying Fox smudged out all the stickers on the van so Trump's followers couldn't see it when they televised the presser earlier this afternoon. Unbelievable.

Loffler disappeared for entire games at a time this season. He just can't cover the field & the new rule changes has physically eliminated from the game. Bombers should reevaluate the safety position in the off season.

Next Game vs Calgary Here
Same style as Reilly. I just get sick of seeing Mikey throw a skyball with ice on it coming down & one of his receivers make another flukey catch. Just having the Esks miss the playoffs so I don't have to see it again until next June is fine by me.

The way he's played this year, I don't really see that as a big loss. Hecht is a veteran who may have more range as a safety.

Or they find a way to play 10 years as a backup to the starter & go on the CFL tour from team to team never showing much of anything when they get the chance. Like Dom Davis. Or Kevin Glenn. Every fan wonders why these backups still around. But they have that "Veteran Presence", says every CFL head coach ever.

You can now buy a new car with 84 & 96 month loans which is absolutely crazy. Imagine still paying off your car with 200,000 kms on it & it's falling apart? Not only do you have that $1,500 repair bill but a $350 a month bank payment with 24 payments left. People let themselves get into financial nightmares like that.

I hope the Bomber players are as tired as the fans are of being the Stamps little whipping boys every time we play them. There should be a lot of motivation to win tonight for at least 4 reasons. 1. To put even more doubt in the heads of the Stamps that they won't even get to the Grey Cup this season. 2. If we have to go back to Calgary for a playoff game then we can beat them in their stadium. 3. We clinch a playoff spot. 4. A big EFF YOU to the Eskimos as we eliminate them from the playoffs. JUST GET 'ER DONE!!

My brother & I went to a WHA Jets game in the mid 70's. In the era when they were really, really good & won 3 WHA Championships. We usually went to maybe 6 games a year back then. Anyway, one game there was this guy sitting directly behind us at the old Arena & for the entire game he kept saying, "Skate, skate, skate, skate. Check, check, check, check, check. Skate, skate, skate, skate, skate. Check, check, check, check". All... Game... Long... By the third period, I was ready to turn around & scream STFU!!! My brother said don't do it. So, I shut up. I was in Winnipeg last March. We went to the Jets-Preds game & for fun I started that same chant. We both started chuckling over that.

I sold photocopiers in the 80's before we moved to Calgary.. I had a sales manager who was brilliant at his job. He could convince just about everyone they needed a new copier. If I had a tough close I'd ask for him to come in & 9 times out of 10 he'd close the deal. But he spent as much as he made. He drove a new Mercedes. He had a brand new house. His suits were like $500 (1984). Shoes always shined. He dressed for success & he was a success. His attitude was buy everything on credit. I asked him what would he do if he lost his job? He smiled & said, "Just sell." I looked him up on facebook & from what I could see he went into business for himself & I think he's a millionaire.

I think it's great how you manage your money so I'm not criticizing. I have a friend who just turned 60. He has an office cleaning business & was doing quite well here in Calgary with a number of permanent clients. Everything was going great for him & his wife. He was making good money, hired a number of employees to service his accounts until the downturn in 2013. As the downturn in the oil patch worsened & companies closed their doors or cancelled their contracts he began having financial problems. He had to lay off his entire staff. But he also had to pay his bills relating to his business. Now he only has a couple of clients that he & his wife service. He told me a couple of years ago that he would retire in debt & that he probably will be in debt from his business for the rest of his life. He said he was okay with that but it scared me into paying off my personal debts as I didn't want to be retired on a fixed income & still paying off my debt. It motivated me to do it now & not later.
