Winnipeg vs B.C. – A Guide On “Who” To “Cheer” For

If you like this De Niro, then you’re cheering for the B.C. Lions. If you like the one in Heat, I can’t help you, but that’s a good movie, too. (Photo “courtesy” of ScreenCrave.com)

*Chances are, you’re either a die hard CFL fan or you’re just getting to know the game, or you hate it and you’re looking for a place to plant your anonymous comments from Hell. Either way, here’s a way to find out which team you’re a fan of – the Winnipeg Blue Bombers or the B.C. Lions…

Mirror, mirror, on the wall…

WINNIPEG BLUE BOMBERS


You are a fan if you also like…

• Wheat
• Snow
• “Lite” Beer
• A.C. Slater
• The St. Louis Rams (because you’ve probably got confused as to which team you were watching once, or something…)
• John Deere
• Tim Horton’s
• Windows 95
• The Washington Huskies (because you probably own a hat with a giant “W” on it…)

I never got how Superman’s enemies always found Kryptonite. The world’s actual 21st century scientists can’t even find Kryptonite. (Photo “courtesy” of BCLionsDen.ca)

B.C. LIONS


You are a fan if you also like…

• Concrete
• Rain
• Cider and Spirits
• A.C. Slate (the college years)
• The Dutch soccer team (and, you’ve probably worn that jersey to B.C. Place because you don’t own any Lions gear, or other orange clothing…)
• What’s the anti-John Deere? A Vespa, or something.
• Starbucks
• Some Apple crap
• The Detroit Lions (because you can pretend that the NFL Network and FOX Sports are talking about your team every Sunday…)
• The McMaster Marauders (you just heard of them on Friday night, but you thought they were pretty cool…)
• Teams that have never signed Buck Pierce (you have accepted the self-loathing)
• The 2011 Texas Rangers
• The Godfather: Part II… or Goodfellas
• De Niro in Little Fockers
• Some Internet news site, or a Blog
• The O.C., and possibly Newport Harbor
• Ancient Rome, or China

It’ll be a good one, especially since half the population of Vancouver has come from Winnipeg, in some way shape or form. Even Canucks fans and some high-ranking executives within the Canucks organization come from Winnipeg…

Cheers.
