Bomber fans, I got a question for you. What is only 25 days away? Hint a bunch guys sum tall, sum small who come from all places to play the game we all call ____!
That's right, the time is approaching for all of the Bomber Greats to clean their plates and line up at the Canad Inn's Stadium Gates!!! TC08' is here and I can't wait. Last year you guys and gals got the opportunity to witness one of the all time CFL greats make history and see your Bombers team play for the Grey Cup! If you haven't already we must put last year in the past and move on to this year. I don't know about you but the thought of not finishing the ultimate goal is not an option especially for me and I hope for you too. I know that Winnipeg has been patiently waiting for that parade down Portage to happen, and just like you feel we feel the same way as players. Winnipeg the IceMan has carried your thoughts, wants and dreams along with my personal goals and used them as motivation this long off-season and prepared myself to do Big things this year. As I sit here and type all I can think about is being a CHAMPION and what it takes.

Being a Champion is something that we as players all want just as the cities in which we play in. But I ask do we, the city of Winnipeg has what it takes to accomplish that goal. This not only goes for us the Bombers but most importantly the YOU the Fans!!! I ask you this, If you played some type of sport or watched your kids play sports, how did you feel or how do you think they feel when people are watching? Hopefully you get my point. As a player playing professional sports being a Champion is something that we understand takes hard work and a lot of dedication. We must prepare ourselves every year to play at a high level physically and mentally to compete but we can't do that unless were dedicated... That brings me to you the Great Bomber Nation, are y'all Motivated and Dedicated to showing your support this year? Even though Canad Inn's Stadium is old and we want a new stadium lets not let that effect what the goal is. Why can't we sell out every home game this year and for those of you who are able to travel with us lets take over stadiums on the road, that's having a Championship attitude!!! To have 30,000 plus Fans screaming going crazy and showing their support for us will go along way, because we as players just love when the stadium's pack. I maybe can't speak for some of my teammates but for me to see that and get that feeling its crazy. I know hey these people paid there good hard earned money to come see me play and the first thing that comes to mind is don't let them down. So in the end, Bomber Fans let's be a Champion this year, why not us...08' Let's be Great! So lets start it off by showing your support for me and my teammates by stopping by TC08' and see us prepare to dominate!!!
