If you were recasting Miami Vice, which Bombers would you use? Do any of the american Bomber players have a favourite Canadian TV show?
May 29, 20205 yr comment_475731 So I was just reading an article on TheAthletic and found out former Bombers running back Deland McCullough is a coach with the KC Chiefs.

May 30, 20205 yr comment_475736  This question has meritO’Leary: Could Harris Be The Best Canadian To Ever Play In The CFL? Â
May 30, 20205 yr comment_475742 Watched the game rerun and it was interesting. When my heart wasn't in my throat, some realizations came to me .Firstly, Evans didn't play all that much worse than the Collaros/Streveler combination, but the Bomber receivers were a heckuva lot better. Two Canadians dominated the game-Harris and Demski, Kongbo didn't play all that much or was all that much a factor, so maybe he won't be missed too much. and the TiCats could run up the middle almost will during most of the game. It would have been better if TSN had televised the entire playoffs ending with the Cup game. Edited May 30, 20205 yr by Tracker

My biggest take away apart of relishing how it all came together for the Bombers in the playoffs was that Suitor is still an A hole.

Do any of the american Bomber players have a favourite Canadian TV show? Here's the closest answer I can give you. In 2011 & 12 when my son played Junior College football in Northern California, he introduced his teammates to Trailer Park Boys. He brought a bunch of DVDs down with him & 9 or 10 guys would crowd into his dorm room as he played the series for them & they absolutely loved it. One time, they had a snowstorm as the campus was in the Sierra Mountains. One of the players had a car so my son brushed off all the snow & took some guys on the team for a little ride Canadian Style in an empty snowbound parking lot. He was doing doughnuts & sliding all over the place. He said these tough black dudes who were his teammates from the Hood in LA & Oakland were squealing like little piglets in the back as he roared around. They all thought they were all gonna die. Lol.Â

June 1, 20205 yr comment_476056 I honestly thought the plate was a joke when I first saw it a couple weeks ago. I mean, who didn't recognize that "B0000000" looks like "BOOOOO"?? Cripes. But hopefully it gets ignored for the most part...

I ordered mine this morning and am genuinely hoping to get B00085... for at least two reasons.

Winnipeg is a whole lot better (and the rest of the Canada the same).  If we didn't have crappy weather in winter it would be a much easier sell for players to move up here permanently.Â

It just seems weird. I have the EastMan one because it's where I'm from, and I might get a Parkland/WestMan one to rep my time in those areas, but I dunno....seeing all the Alberta cities/towns with a big Bombers logo overlapping. Just seems super weird, because all of those places are diehard Stamps/Esks/Riders..... Edited June 1, 20205 yr by Noeller

Costa Rica comes pretty close, though.Â
