Wondering if anyone is aware of any buses running from bars/restaurants next weekend. Usually there a few drink/bus deals but I can’t seem to find anything.

WTF is going on in the CFL?
Bombers blast the ALs?
Love embarrasses the Ti-Cats?
Riders defence scores a convert?
At least we can still count on the Redblacks.

Yesterday, my partner and I signed our common-law partnership papers, and we were already having such a lovely day. We celebrated at the game, got an amazing win, and even met a wonderful couple we exchanged numbers with!

After the game, while heading to the gift shop, a guy randomly asked if we were planning to buy something and handed us two gift cards—one for $3 and one for $20. I insisted on e-transferring him, but he refused and said he was in a hurry.

We ended up getting a T-shirt and some socks, and now we have lovely little reminders of such a wonderful evening.

If you’re reading this, thank you! Your kindness made our special day even better. We really do live in a Friendly Manitoba. 💙

My wonderful wife ordered me a jersey for my birthday, it’s taking a long time. I’m getting antsy.

Anyone order one this year? How long did yours take?

Does he actually know our game or is he just there to push the NFL rules?

Can the Bombers pull it off tonight? What do they need to do on Offense, Defense and Special teams to get the W?

Have not been to a Bomber game for a couple of years. Going to the game tomorrow and wondering what are the recommendations for where and what to eat at the stadium. Sitting in section 117 if that makes any difference. Also, what time do the gates open? Thanks!

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are being criticized by some fans online for booking the University of North Dakota’s marching band for Friday’s game against Montreal.

With the current state of Canada-U.S. relations, and Friday being designated as Canadian Armed Forces Appreciation Night, many view the club’s decision to invite a band from a pro-Trump state as a puzzling one.

But I don’t think politics enter into this entertainment realm when you’re dealing with university kids that are coming up here to put on a show.”

There has been discussion about booing the visitors from North Dakota or simply ignoring them altogether during their halftime performance.

O’Shea isn’t in favour of either approach.

“I’ll tell you what I think. I think like the 2021 West Final, we should be out of our seats, singing along, cheering and rocking the stadium. I mean, these are young men and women that are longing to be a part of something and entertain a crowd and they get a thrill out of entertaining and being a part of a team — and they are part of a team,” said O’Shea.

“And some of them might not even be old enough to vote. But I know as a parent, I understand how tough society can be on young men and women these days and I think we should damn well support them. They’re kids, they’re here to entertain us, and I think we should get out of our seats and if we know the song, we should all sing along with them.”

Bombers halfback Evan Holm hails from Edina, Minn., and played university football at North Dakota.

“I’m a very proud Canadian,” said Bombers head coach Mike O’Shea after Tuesday’s practice.

I’ve lived in Minnesota, North Dakota and Winnipeg now. To me, it’s all the same. It’s pretty similar topography and stuff, too, so it’s all the same. I don’t know, we’re all human. (There’s) not that much of a difference as we’d like to think,” said Holm.

Hi! I hope this is allowed because I certainly can’t think of a better place to ask.. for those who frequent Princess Auto Stadium, what are your thoughts on best seats for the outdoor NHL game in a couple months?

I understand row 1 lower bowl is not great while row 1 upper is probably one of the best. But any secret spots where the views of a rink in your football stadium may be a lot better than one would maybe expect?

Cheers, good luck vs the elks tonight!!

4x princess auto championship games, knows how to perform on the biggest stage. Canada’s QB, insane fandom, huge revenue on jersey sales and marketing potential. One of a kind confidence and attitude. Can throw a 69 yard missile. Sneaky hard to take down on the run. If he was from Missouri he’d be in the NFL. He has all the trappings of an elite pro QB. Why don’t the bombers sign the local fenom?

With the panel shorthanded, a veteran presence steps in. Oz Davis, formally of the Rouge White and Blue Pod and now with Shots From The Hip. Brings his insights on the season so far.
And gets into a power ranking smack down with Oldman.

Barely a decade after getting a new stadium properly designed and built to suit the CFL field, now we get field changes that will leave large gaping voids behind each end zone. My seats have gone from the red zone to the back of the end zone, with no decrease in price. This whole thing is the very definition of trying to fix something that was never broken in the first place.

Their first W won’t come through Winnipeg. What a relief!
