2007 Preview: Winnipeg Blue Bombers
It's time to gaze into our crystal ball and answer all of the pressing questions about this year's Bombers.
By the end of the year, will (not the real) Greg Marshall have the finest mustache in the CFL?
It certainly seems like that'll be the case. Which reminds us, when we were at the Grey Cup launch party a couple of weeks ago (thanks again to the Argos for the invite), we noticed that Chris Schultz had...make sure you're sitting down for this... shaved his mustache. So, no 'stache for Schultz, none for Suitor and a clean shaven Rod Black... there's only one conclusion that can be reached here: George Steinbrenner is running TSN.
But back to the question at hand. The only CFL personalities who seem to be giving Marshall a run for his money are Jim Barker and Paul McCallum... at least until we start publicly demanding that Danny McManus grow a fu machu.
How will Troy Westwood insult Rider fans this year?
None of us can ever think quite like Little Hawk. But most likely, he'll probably be amazed that no one has mistaken Eric Tillman for a gopher and tried to fornicate with him. That is, if Westwood would use the term "fornicate."
What city will the Blue Lightning "go wild" in?
As documented extensively on this site, the Blue Lightning had a little bit of fun in Regina last year. Unsurprisingly, they were also easily the most entertaining dance/cheer team at the Grey Cup last year (Blue Thunder excluded). And let's face it - these girls are perfectionists. "Fun" in one CFL city led to a great cheer team, therefore "fun" in every CFL city will equal the greatest cheer team of all-time.
When will the Bombers finally erect a giant statue of Chris Walby?
Probably not for a while, considering how much bronze or concrete or, um, whatever statues are made of it would require. Inexplicably, the federal government decided to provide Winnipeg with funding for a new human rights museum instead of this. Shame.
