August 7, 20204 yr comment_482264 theres a lot of gold in that ring...Is that not part of our team colors?????
August 7, 20204 yr comment_482273 He deserves it just for the fact of having to deal with the callers on Post game and coaches show the past 29 years.
August 7, 20204 yr comment_482275 I miss Blue Bomber football. I'm not sure if seeing the ring ceremony is helping or making it worse but I am thankful that we won last fall.
August 7, 20204 yr comment_482277 I'd love to see what each players personalized message is. That's a neat wrinkle. Not sure if that's been done in the past.
August 7, 20204 yr comment_482278 I don't mind saying I teared up a bit watching that Knuckles vid. That man has seen some **** in the last (nearly) 30 years and absolutely earned that ring. So cool that they did that!

August 7, 20204 yr comment_482282 I haven’t been witness to something like this before and truthfully, I never thought about Bob Irving getting a ring. But when you think about it, it truly fits in with the culture and atmosphere the Bombers are promoting with this team. This is no mere gesture by the Bombers. It is heartfelt and rewarding. And, deserving. Growing up and listening to Irving over the last 29 years,I realize how lucky we were to have someone so balanced in his broadcasting. And knowledgable. A Grey Cup Ring? Bravo Bob! And bravo to Wade Miller for bringing it all together with Kyle Walters and Mike O’Shea.

Apparently they used it in Toronto when he played under Pinball. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/football/cfl/winnipeg-bluebombers/friesen-bombers-get-historic-ring-for-historic-run https://www.cfl.ca/2006/07/19/argos__defence_finds_its_pulse_with_o_shea/
August 7, 20204 yr comment_482289 ahhhh cripes I should have known that. I remember them talking about it and I absolutely love it.

Looking back at some of the previous years, the winning teams colors are more prominent. Yes, you guys are argiung & complaining over a championship ring that our team won. The first championship in 29 years. It's comical.

I absolutely love this! Such a humble man. And so deserving having called games for over 40 years. We can argue here for days as to who the face of the Blue Bombers is. But we damned well know for sure who the voice of the Bombers is. Congratulations, Bob.

August 7, 20204 yr comment_482308 Crazy to see the difference between respect and genuine admiration between Irving/O'Shea then 11 years ago listening to the coaches show with Irving/Kelly .....

August 8, 20204 yr comment_482336 You’d probably think there was going to be a lot of yelling, a lot of shouting, a lot of oohs and aahs,” said Bombers slotback Nik Demski. “But, honestly, everybody was just silent because your breath is really taken away by this.“It’s amazing. It’s unbelievable. It’s definitely a memory that’s going to last a lifetime.”

August 13, 20204 yr comment_482601 I'm really missing football. The lack of it is legitimately making my summer feel empty and just "blah".

I really miss sitting outside on a beautiful summer evening at IG Field watching football. Or going to the Banjo Bowl every year. The energy and excitement. Loved it!
