May 27, 20169 yr comment_197668 Not sure where to put this, but Chris Cuthbert tweeted this morning that TSN's tentative preseason schedule has four games, including both Bomber games.

May 27, 20169 yr comment_197726 Hey, let's not knock a guy for shedding a few tears when an entire year of rehab goes up in smoke, twice.

Too late, I've knocked him too many times to stop now. The rider fans at labour day last year can attest to that. (to be fair, I could feel for him if he wasn't a rider. But being what it is...he can go to hell)

Honestly, I prefer CJOB's broadcast of pre-season because at least Irving knows the players and has been following camp. That first game, especially, you won't see many vets, and TSN won't know any of the players....yeah, you get a visual for yourself, but who gives a ****. I think I'll listen to Irving over TSN anyhow...

May 27, 20169 yr comment_197745 Preseason is a great time to take the kids to a game, they are our future fans. Last year sucked so bad, can't wait for the season to start. I'm pretty sure we can win 4 games this year.

I think I'll listen to Irving over TSN anyhow... The ideal situation for me is listen to the game on CJOB live because Bob is a ******* legend and way better than the hacks that TSN will have and then watch a PVR of the game afterwards to see what actually happened. Maybe I got too much time on my hands but **** it, it's Bomber football, you can never get enough.

Well I oughtta....back in the day we didn't need TVs....we would all huddle around the fire and turn on the floor model transistor radio and listen to Foster and Perc call the Canadians vs. Leafs game when the broadcast started midway through the 2nd period.....the back of our eyelids was our TV screen. Yessir...you whippersnappers and your newfangled screens...use your imagination like we did back in the day. That was our entertainment I tell ya.

May 27, 20169 yr comment_197783 4 hours ago, Mike said: I think the guy that could make the biggest impact this year is Loffler, to be honest. Loffler could easily tempt the Bombers to go a National at that position (safety). I was told to watch Loffler by a minor league official here in Kelowna because of the plays he was making. Neither he, nor I, expected the Bombers to get him. He'll get in games, on defence, sooner than later. Edited May 27, 20169 yr by Mr Dee
