It also appears that in 1980 the Bombers won both games of the back to back with the Riders. I wonder how many years that has happened.

I was at that Calgary West Semi-Final game in 1980. It dumped a big load of snow the night before so they had to scrape the field to try and get a decent surface to play on. It sure was cold that day too but luckily it was sunny so that made it bearable. And we wore onions on our belts, as was the style of the time.

yeah I noticed the same thing. I was like "Mike Holmes sure got big!!"

anyone who has spent any time in Carlyle and Estevan (and even smaller towns in that area) can testify to the fact there are some pretty serious f'ed up people living in that area of Saskatchewan. Banjo-picking inbreds sums them up pretty well.

??? What are you on crack?

Schief and McDavid playing together - I hope that's a combo we see at the Olympics for years to come.

Watching some of those TD's the Bombers scored at least two would have been called back on replay for sure nowadays. I still remember that Robert Woods punt return against Hamilton for a TD. The replay showed that he definitely stepped out of bounds. Oh well.

Just had lunch with a guy here in Kelowna who used to be Loffler's football coach in high school. TL played QB, defence and returned punts. He never left the field. Amazing athlete. He said he couldn't believe Winnipeg got him in the 3rd round. He said BC should have grabbed him. Anyway, he said Loffler is going to be our safety for quite a long time, as long as we can keep him anyway! I hope he's right.

why would the new stadium in Regina be full of water? This is dangerous as it could result in Rider fans accidentally taking a bath.

Two memories of Dieter - the night I was at the Stadium (before it was named Canad Inns) when Goodlow got his 100 receptions, and the game in 1984 when Dieter came back to Winnipeg as a Hamilton Tiger-Cat, and every time Dieter got sacked, mostly by Tyrone Jones, the Ghostbusters theme song would start up and everyone in the stands would start dancing and yelling "Brock Busters!" The Bombers won that game 48-16. Ahh...great memories.

Leafs fan in the Darryl Sittler/Lanny McDonald/Ian Turnbull/Mike Palmateer era. Then the Jets joined the NHL. Bye bye Leafs.

Toby Enstrom, with balls.

yup I remember watching him a lot in the first season the Jets were in the NHL (the first time).

wow - 60 points for a D man - seems a lot until you realize that most games in the WHA were 8-7 or 9-5. Especially Jets games.

kind of how much I hated the Flames while living in Calgary.

at least this year the wife lost 50 pounds and got a boob-job.

Loser has to wear Travis Bond's game-worn jock-strap on their face for a full quarter. Now that's something worth winning for!

yeah it does - if you don't know who Lars Erik Sjoberg is then you aren't a Jets fan!

Moe Leggett looked to be a bit banged up too, IIRC he was limping a bit.

Bill Clinton is arriving back in D.C. after a trip to his home state of Arkansas. He steps out of the plane carrying two pigs, one under each arm. When he reaches the bottom of the stairs the Marine guard sharply salutes him as usual. Clinton said, "I'd like to salute you back son, but as you can see my hands are full."The Marine replied, "Yes Sir! Mighty fine pigs, Sir!" Clinton responded, "These aren't just ordinary pigs Marine,they are pure Arkansas Razorback Pigs!!" The Marine replied, "Yes Sir! Mighty fine Razorbacks Sir!" Bill then responded, "I got this one for Hillary, and this one for Chelsea."The Marine guard then replied, "Yes Sir! Good trade, Sir!"

During pre-game the B'Nai Brith should hold a small ceremony and present Khalif Mitchell with an honorary Torah, yarmulke and flag of Israel. What a turd that Mitchell is. It's sad testament as to how low the Riders have fallen. Mitchell shouldn't see a field in professional sports anywhere ever again. http://www.haaretz.com/world-news/americas/1.740410

yeah that sure happened a lot to us in the past anyway.

Where did they find a paved street in Regina?
