Posted June 26, 201411 yr comment_60704 It's game day! 2014 CFL season kicks off tonight. Time to see what the new Walters / O'shea edition of the Bombers can do. Game time is @ 7:30. Forecast is 22 degrees with a chance of rain. We invite everyone not attending the game to join in our chat room to cheer on the action!
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60714 Gonna be a great day. Similar weather here in AB. Finish work around 10am, then heading into Calgary around Noon for some pre-gaming. Absolutely can't wait for Knuckles and the pre-game show!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! GAME DAY: WE ALL PLAY.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60717 Here's hoping the rain stays away. We don't want anything to dampen our traffic buster party after a sweet win.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60718 Looking forward to it - will try to get in on the chat, have a viewing to go to tonight before the funeral tomorrow so I need to PVR the game though so probably won't join chat as I don't want any spoilers, should be back before the game ends unless we go out to eat later.

June 26, 201411 yr comment_60726 Big night for me tonight with the flag in all but can't wait to see our D in all of it unorthodoxness.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60729 I'll be at the game tonight then off to the west coast for a brief 5 day vacay... I'll have plenty of reading to do once I get back to a computer July 2...
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60733 have a great day y'all. i have some friends coming over to watch it but will likely pop into the chat a few times.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60739 have a great day y'all. i have some friends coming over to watch it but will likely pop into the chat a few times. Are their names "left hand" and "right hand"? And do they look like this?

I'm very quiet on these boards (and was on the other boards), but I haven't missed an Odds and Sods in years. Thanks DoD!
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60767 Pooping Will try and get all the **** out before tonights game. Sent via the Rogers network on a blackberry z30 while pooping
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60768 I hope we attack the Aros with the same zeal as Will Farrell displayed when he addressed a fan rally before the USA played Germany. He said, although out of shape, he would try his very best, and if the game is close, he is willing to bite all the German players to help them win. Gotta love that version of football
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60769 Will be cheering it on t.v. from Calgary. Tryign not to get my hopes up.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60776 Listen people, let's cut right to the topic on everyone's mind. I know they wore the navy's in walk through but any chance they come through the tunnel in the Royal Blues tonight?
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60777 have a great day y'all. i have some friends coming over to watch it but will likely pop into the chat a few times. Lol... argos fans in TO... nice try
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60778 Listen people, let's cut right to the topic on everyone's mind. I know they wore the navy's in walk through but any chance they come through the tunnel in the Royal Blues tonight? They can't. A cricket team in India trademarked the royal blue and gold colour scheme so the Bombers can't wear it anymore.

Happy it's back for another year.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60796 Game could go a variety of ways. Just saw on the other site some nut decided to make a thread wondering when the boo birds would come out. Can these people just quit trying to stir the pot like that? I mean, it could be a blow out tonight and they still wouldn't come out from me, just from the fact that building a team back up from 3-15 involves a lot of things that don't change in just 1 week. It's a mentality we're trying to change, and I get the feeling from seeing preseason play, that much work has been done already to try and fix that mentality, but going up against the big established dogs is gonna take a little trial and error to fix that one. Idk, I'm just all for cutting O'Shea enough rope before I jump to conclusions about him.
June 26, 201411 yr comment_60797 I wish I didn't have a sinking feeling about this game. don't. this is the dawn of the rebuild that the Bombers should have begun several years ago. the Wade/Kyle/Osh thing needs a year to gain traction and momentum. yeah, i know you've heard that refrain several times over the last 2 decades... and that the emotional stamina required to willingly get on the same roller coaster that has made you nauseous over and over is immense (i am a Leaf fan after all)... but the aggregate of the Bomber's moves since Miller came on board (and put Walters in place, and hired O'Shea and allowed him to have a dozen other coaches) has got to have you looking at the team's trajectory and believing in it. (heck... i do)
