The headline should have read.

$1:

Nice new digs same shitty team.

But on the plus side, given that there was no mention of Buck Pierce being injured it must mean he didn't play much.

The traffic was freaking ridiculous getting to the game. Some people waited for hours to get into the parking lot......although Pembina Hwy looked like one. Buddy of mine went and he lives near St. Vital Centre. He took the bus rather than drive.

They have wrong people running things for the Bombers. It is like they are trying to run the team down on purpose. Maybe to hand it over to private ownweship.

I"m an idiot and I could do a better job

Buck is being kept in stasis to avoid any chance he'll injure himself.....time for a new QB. Still disgusted with the way they treated Khari Jones

Give it a couple months and you might be able to get your hands on Tim Tebow

To quote a famous former NFL receiver, C'monnnnnn, man.

Everybody knows Tim is far to talented for the lowly CFL and if you want proof you can ask those NFL greats who came up here and ruled our league. Guy's like Rickey Williams, Marc Gatineau, Fred Bilitnekoff, Andrea Rison and especially Vince Feregamo who tore it up as the QB for the 3 and 13 Al's.

I would have figured Rickey Williams would have fit in with a certin portion of Canadian society. Puff Puff pass .... opps droped the ball.... Puff Puff pass .... ummm I don't feel like running so I'm going to fall to the ground..... My, and many others, favorite quote of R. Williams is when he got pulled over by The University of Texas campus police "Don't you know who I am!"

From the photos I saw the stadium looks very nice. Can't judge a team based on first preseason game so don't get so down on the Bombers. Give them time to gel.

[Hyack]

Great looking stadium, but it sure looks like they dropped the ball when it comes to being able to access the site, over 33,000 seats and parking for less than 5,000, having to kick out U of M students for what parking there is, bus access only with no rapid transit....

[rgjsaunders]

Not a very nice stadium for the broadcasters, they are not enclosed - here in Winterpeg! The CFL will not let them host a Grey Cup Game. From the start of this new stadium, right through to present it has been a disaster. Vehicle traffic in and out is a four lane street - two lanes in and two out - for 23,000 fans? As a Winnipeger and a Bomber Fan I am so disappointed in all levels of our Government to have allowed this short sighted, fouled up mess to happen.
