Posted February 9, 201411 yr comment_39125 Be nice if Drew could keep his number 5 (take it from Simpson if he's even here). Kind of cool to think that 40 years ago in 1974 another QB wearing number 5 made his way to the Bombers and had a pretty good career ... Let's hope getting our new "number 5" is the start of very good things with the QB position on this team!
February 9, 201411 yr comment_39127 At least it's our third jersey for home games. That's a start. The old home & away unis should be brought back permanently..
February 9, 201411 yr comment_39128 I remember watching Dieter & Clements. Two completely different qbs but they sure got the job done. When they got on a roll late in a game it was such a treat to watch them go to work. Brock the strong armed qb who loved to throw from the pocket & could zip the ball into a small space with deadly accuracy & Clements the tactician & scrambler. A guy who could make chicken soup out of chicken feathers. I don't know what Bomber fans would do now if we had a qb who could put the team on his shoulders & carry it like those 2 could. Or get us a win in the clutch when he had to. We'd be speechless after years of watching failure after failure after failure at the qb position. Let's hope Drew Willy is finally the dawn of a new era. We deserve it.
February 9, 201411 yr comment_39159 If 'NOT so Wee Willy' brings as much as Dieter Brock brought, I'll be ecstatic. I don't know if he has as strong an arm as Brock. but if he can distribute the ball and be as successful as Ralph doing it, there will be good times ahead. I just hope Drew likes the zoo.
February 9, 201411 yr comment_39173 LOL That looks to be a full sized bath towel hanging from Ralphs's waist!
February 9, 201411 yr comment_39183 Ralph is Dieter Brock. Dieter was the name he preferred to use a few years after he got here when he became a starter. I think it's actually his middle name.
February 9, 201411 yr Author comment_39184 Drew Willy wore #16 in Buffalo. PS Who is Ralph? See what you did there
February 9, 201411 yr comment_39189 Ralph is Dieter Brock. Dieter was the name he preferred to use a few years after he got here when he became a starter. I think it's actually his middle name. So to clarify, Dieter was Ralph Brock, and then we had Brock Ralph play receiver (albeit wide open sitting on the sidelines receiver) in 2009.
February 9, 201411 yr Author comment_39191 Ralph Brock actually made me Ralph less than Brock Ralph did truth be told ...
February 16, 201411 yr comment_40968 Willy is wearing #5. His jerseys are for sale at the Bomber store online. http://store.bluebombers.com/product_info.php?products_id=3255
