Saskatchewan @ Toronto
NFL attendence dropped through the whole Buffalo experiment. This isn't the only reason Over the last 2 years, I've been to Toronto twice. My trips have included 4 Jays games, 2 Argos games, 1 Ticats game and a TFC game. The Blue Jays got a lot of attention over the last 2 years. Playoffs will do that. 81 games x 40,000 fans is a lot of fans. For the Argos games, there are a lot of week night games, poor parking (expensive and not very close) in the area. The GO Trains get close if coming from the east, but are a bit more of the pain if coming from other directions. Both games I was at were poorly attended. Pricing in the lower bowl is high. Seats in the upper deck are uncomfortable. Parking would even be tougher the days I was there as the CN Exhibition was on at the same time (like the Red River Ex). The Ticat game had a good amount of rabid, football knowedgable fans. Even at 0-9, the fans were great. TFC - Sure they play in the same stadium, but attract a completely different crowd. Seating comfort doesn't matter as much, as fans stand for most of the game. Lots of knowledgeable fans, lots of energy, and a lot of noise, starting with the south endzone. I went on a weeknight with an 8 pm start. The more expensive seats were still not filled on the sides. The ends were full and highly energetic. Again, I think parking is an issue. Parking would even be tougher the days I was there as the CN Exhibition was on at the same time (like the Red River Ex).

Halifax Expansion
It should be “Bluebombers”. Ottawa Rough Riders vs Saskatchewan Roughriders or it could be the Halifax Red Blacks...

Thank You to the Blue Bombers for a Great and Entertaining Season.
Or winning the lottery

Blow out
And the starting QB Nichols suffered separate finger and calf injuries in the last half of the season, of which both caused lost playing time.

Should The Bombers Give WR Greg Carr A Call To Return To Winnipeg?
Let's call Calvin Johnson and Randy Moss

Rules question
Did it? TSNs camera work and camera selection was garbage at the end. Looked like we missed the FG by 2 ft, and the ball must have bounced on the yard markers or out of bounds, but can't tell from the video.

"Get on your feet, Bomber fans"
The Edmonton event was addressed as the police officer hit was working at a barricade for the CFL game (near Commonwealth Stadium, where the Blue Bombers were playing the Eskimos at the time of the first incident). Why wouldn't you want to show support to the officer, the Edmonton Police, and to those injured later in the evening? The Las Vegas event was pure evil. Those people killed and injured were co-workers, neighbours, friends, and possibly family of Bomber fans. As a concert promoter/host, the events in Las Vegas are directly related to the operation of our stadium and team.

Who should I get on my jersey?
Get Irving on the back and 680 as the number.

Passport aside...
Roberts is old and lost a step. Andrew Harris #ForTheW What about Willard Reaves?

Why isn't the Bombers #5 jersey retired?
I like players using numbers of former greats. When they give that flash of greatness, it reminds me of the great times. Keep retiring numbers and soon your team resembles the modern day Canadiens, 42 passes to 67 and now to 56.

Any Changes For The Blue?
Too bad Khalil wasn't a DB. A couple more dBs of Bass and we'd guarantee IGF the title of loudest stadium. Honestly, I'm still impressed by how much I saw Khalil's Dad in the stands for most of the games. It's like the first chapter of California fan base (before Scott and Gregory Mortland ).

Any Changes For The Blue?
There will be a new jacket hanging in the coaches office. I wonder if O'Shea wears a blazer on the sidelines for the rest of the year.

Did they call a trip on the arm tackle of Finch, or am I seeing/hearing things?

Blue Bomber Pano shot
South end zone screen has all the correct data. There must have been a data or computer reset while the camera man was panning the crowd. He did go 720 degrees around.

Bombers @ Als: The Game Day Thread
If the ball was knocked loose by the hit from Leggett's hand, the fumble location is obviously the spot of leggett's hand.
