I feel like every time we go to the Grey Cup post-Khari, we have a bizarre QB story. Ol' blue eyes in his 1st start, Buck being duck taped together and now the gentleman with impeccable teeth who will be a Bomber for an ephemeral moment in time.

The ghosts of 2001 still haunt me. Marc Boerigter is the name I have given to the monster under my bed.

mine is named Troy and he coughs too much ...

There was a rumour going around the Ottawa would be going hard after Dinwiddie as a OC and he would bring Arbuckle with him as the starter, who knows what happens now that Campbell was fired as HC

4 Grey Cups in 5 years, unbelievable!

Not only did Bud Grant coach the Bombers to 4-5 Grey Cup victories, he then went to Minnesota, and got the Vikings to the Super Bowl --3-4 times, but "did not win a Super Bowl".

He probably is in the CFL and NFL Hall of Fame -- I haven't checked this, but if he is, he's probably the only one in both ?? Bud Grant was a great football man --we need a guy like him in Winnipeg.

There are at least three people in both Halls of Fame: Bud Grant and Marv Levy (both coaches), and Warren Moon (player).

In no way a CFL or NFL fan, but my dad was a Bombers fan from childhood, so will be watching this one and rooting for the Bombers in memorium. Good luck, boys.

Grew up watching the CFL then lost interest My wife attended the same school as Cal Murphy’s daughter Bombers were the best defensively back then and routinely in the playoffs. Nice to have a winning team to cheer for again
