July 21, 20177 yr comment_277907 Probably my favourite game I ever went to was the 2002 Western semi finals against the BC Lions. I was eleven years old at the time and my uncle scored seats at i believe the 40 yard line second row.. Not only did the Bombers hammer the Lions 30-3 I remember losing my voice joining in the chant "BC sucks!" Moral of the story is.. BC sucks
July 21, 20177 yr comment_277910 Just got my tickets. Second row behind the Bombers' bench. Never sat so close before.

BC sucks speaking of a hammering... was that the game when a fan ran on the field and got beat down but a bunch of Lions players??

Do you remember another Wpg/BC game where Reinbold ran out to the 55 all smiling and anticipating a warm post game handshake.... but Adam Rita was livid about some perceived injustice & was ready to mix it up with our coach. He had to be separated by the players? High-larious.

I do remember that one too... but I'm pretty sure the guy running on the field was a playoff game... and we all know the Bombers were no where near the playoffs in the Reinbold era!

Absolutely. Two different games. Rita was a crazy man. He was still steaming during post game interviews.

Actually the Reinbold era was right around the time I was old enough to start following and understanding football (11-12ish years old)... the Bombers should thank their lucky stars my parents were Bomber fans... otherwise I'm not sure they would've kept me as a fan after that disastrous era...
July 21, 20177 yr comment_277982 The Reinbold brawl ... check out Lui Passaglia gooning it up around thirty seconds in ...three bomber OL triple team Adam Rita at 0:55 ... some of the best blocking we saw from them during the 1997 season. Damn, I'm glad that Marty York is nowhere near CFL broadcasts anymore. Edited July 24, 20177 yr by johnzo

Awe and Davis being primarily S.Teamers have a lot to prove before I say they are good depth that won't see a drop off in talent at LB. Who replaces Bryant Turner Jr at DT? Define starters. After the first play of the game "starters" are being rotated in and out for the balance of the game. Lions have 9 D Linemen; they will all play. Turner may not though

Turner may not though I realize rotations happen to give players breather or for specific play calls, but are you suggesting Awe and/or Davis are 1B 1C to Burnett? they have not been rotated that frequently to suggest they are on the same level

Burnett is more of a DB so when he is out there it is almost like a DIME Back. Awe is more of a LB type and might match up better against Andrew Harris' running. So with Burnett injured Awe is considered a very good replacement. Naturally neither one is an Adam Bighill.

Man, what a cheap shot that was from our safety... then Reinbold has the gull to say he has no idea why Rita was mad (sure he went a little over the top)... I wonder why Reinbold never made it far as a head coach?

Wally tends to shy away from first year players. Awe can play; so can Davis. Lions don't give up too much not having Burnett in. My opinion only. Edited July 21, 20177 yr by lyin' guy
