    I might start buying merch again this year. It has nothing to do with management. It's the first year in a few that I might be able to wear some of it. The bombers don't really sell fat guy sizing. Do

  • The last game played at Taylor Field will be the most important game in the history of the stadium. The end of a era. The memories of days gone by will be missed. Children growing up and going to game

  • Really like this. All the best, Alex (Suber) !

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.   

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...

Plus then you can keep your eyes on the clouds so you don't miss the chance to yell at them as they go by.

I usually mute the tv and listen to the radio. Then I have the best of both worlds. TSN doesn't know the friggin players half the season, LOL

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.

You never said I'm wrong.......and if listening to the radio vs watching TV is the determiner of "old man"................

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.

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.

Super run down of the off season by Jeff Hamilton in the Free Press in a chrological format. For instance, 

Nov 10 - Jamaal Westerman and Johnny Adams named West Division All-Stars. Also, Marcel Bellefeuille's contract as OC is not renewed.

Dec 30 - Bombers release Dominic Picard 

Jan. 5 - Matt Nichols signs a 1 year extension.....Jan 6 - Bye bye Brian Brohm                   

Jan. 15 - Alex Suber signs a one day contract to retire as a Blue Bomber.
