  13. I wonder what kind of liability waivers CFL players sign. Right! Head injuries can be life changing.
  14. At what point does an action like the headbutt so far after the play become a criminal assault? Honest question, I'm not sure how these things work. It was not part of a football play, was very violent and totally unexpected, and could have seriously injured him.
  15. I think I've only seen Darrell Walker catch 1 ball all season. Have watched a few Elks games...
  16. Both losing at home, max misery for their fans.
  17. Ok so it's not just me. This game and the last one too!
  18. Cjob pre-game show said Couture broke his arm.

  23. I got a concussion 2.5 years ago from falling on curling ice and am still feeling the effects. I have a whole team of health care people helping me get back to normal, including rehab for vision disturbances. I have to say that it is less fun to watch football now because it really bothers me to see to head hits.
  24. Since when does anyone wear #6 on the Bombers?

    I call April Fools.
  26. I saw the mini-camp interview with O'Shea wearing this shirt and at first thought it was for the Argos. Why in the world would the team produce shirts in another team's colours?? http://store.bluebombers.com/mens/next-ss-polo-metro-blue.html
  27. Hey, here's something fun for you to try. Print out a picture of the Bombers helmet and ask 100 Winnipeggers which team's helmet is in the picture. Then, if you have a bit more free time, try doing that at various points elsewhere in Canada. See how many say U of Washington. Get back to us on the results, would you? Sounds like a fun study To clarify, I think the W makes perfect sense on the helmet, but on a hat or shirt, doesn't mean anything to me as there is no context and not enough brand recognition to make the connection.
  28. The Bombers had the "W" logo before the University of Washington. Interesting, I didn't know that. But, my point is that there is nothing about the plain W on a hat or t-shirt that makes me identify with the Bombers. I love the W on our helmet, but outside of that context, it doesn't make me think of Winnipeg, the Bombers, or football. I get that the point of the W is to connect it with wins. But the logo is three steps back from our 80's logo of the W emerging from behind the football, with the words Blue Bombers. There is no way anybody can misinterpret that logo and what it represented. Not to mention that logo had our team colours nice and bright. To each their own, but I won't be spending any money on merch with the new logo or the navy colours.
