Rider/Bombers Trash talk pre LDC/Banjo Bowl

@EZ_Football

Do I have the impression all wrong about Canada? Is Winnipeg and Regina middle-lower class trash towns outside of the stadium parking lot?

I always assumed Winnipeg was upper class and the pride of Canada

I was going to delete this pejorative post but others have already responded to it and I don’t want to waste any more time. Either you are being intentionally insulting and intentionally trying to derail this thread or you are not thinking at all before you post and the meaning of this thread has completely escaped you. Whatever the reason is, please stop.

Many thanks Grover. I’ll give it a try, but don’t hold your breath!

@Grover

…I would love to explain howBUTI would just embarass myselfI’m sure a more tech savy member could explainIt is real simple though if I can do it(right click the youtube video,copy and paste those letters in the bar at the topViola)If that didn’t work maybe someone more savy than me can explain

Or you can just click on share and then copy. Either way works and I’m no tecchie either. If you’re on a PC your link will be one boxed, which is always nice.

My breath is so bad, even I don’t want to hold it!

I’m on an Android phone. Copying and pasting are all Greek to me. Too funny.

I’m on an iPhone most of the time. All that means is that your link won’t be automatically one boxed, which means you won’t have a pretty picture like Grover did but rather words and numbers for your link. It still works and is pretty easy. You’ll get the hang of it very quickly.

OMG GG, Grover and Jon, it worked. Now have some Matrimonial Cake and enjoy .

OMG Jon, I did it. “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind”.

I did that with my son’s Blackberrys. Too funny.

@EZ_Football …Since it’s inception the banjo bowl has been the single most successful marketing ploy in the CFL. … And it is a hell of a lotta fun to boot.
Then you come along… I do not know if you trying to be funny or just a jerk.
You are not succeeding at funny but you are completely being the latter.
In any case you have several times been nicely asked and a few times not so nicely asked to stop…
Please take the hint.

Runner up goes to Sasketchewan Roughriders fan base, Westwood’s comments could’ve gone off the rails very quickly if not for their great sense of humour

Yes, Rider Nation’s great sense of humour helped make the Banjo Bowl into the premier event it has become. It also doesn’t hurt that no matter the records of both teams, the outcome can go either way. I still remember vividly Doug Brown holding up seven fingers after the Bombers’ last game before the LDC in 2011. And the billboards proclaiming how our neighbours to the west are just a little backwards before the green machine swept the next two games and brought the Bombers thudding back to earth. Always fun!

Yep. Gotta love it!
