I heard there will be a one-hour documentary on the Jets return before the opener on CBC. If so... at least that gives the non-WPG fans something to enjoy that weekend! Yes, I have also heard about the 1 hour doc. on the Jets return. Consider the Oct 9th weekend one for the history books folks -- a landmark milestone in not only for Winnipeg, Manitoba but for Canada. All eyes will be on us. And what a weekend it will be. Totally off the charts. |

MTS is also producing a documentary. How do I know? Because they interviewed me about the petition.

If they did something like that in DVD form-I would totally buy it. A ton of material, from the end of Jets 1.0, through the Moose to the announcement (and even the first game) would be great. |

I hope they do something huge. I will personally beg each and every one of you to let me crash on your floor to save me hotel room prices so I can be there all weekend! I move into a new place September 9th... see ya there! Seriously, I don't know what the plans are yet, all I know is I'm not planning to see any family this Thanksgiving weekend! Whatever happens, it's going to be epic. Yeah told my family and my in laws and my wife for that matter, not to expect a whole heck of lot outta me that weekend for Thanksgiving. I think they understand. Monday is gonna be a nice recovery day. |

I hope it's like an NFL tailgate all weekend. Have an area where you can take shots on Joe Daly or Bryan Hayward. Another area where you gotta stop a Dave Ellett slapshot in double O.T right off the draw.
I keep thinking about that weekend everynight before I go to sleep and I get so pumped up it takes me an extra hour to fall asleep.

I hear rooms are cheap at The Yale. LOL...and if that's full the Northern or the Sutherland are just down the street! I will be at my new home in Saskatoon watching the festivities on TV...too bad after waiting so long for the return of the Jets that I have to move a month before the regular season starts!!!  I hope all you Jets fans party hard that weekend, I'll be cheering everyone on one province over! |

I have this on very good authority - there will be a huge block party the weekend of October 8/9 before the home opener on Graham AVe and around MTS Centre (starting Friday eve Oct 7). The streets around MTSC will be shut down. Entertainment, beer gardens, food, Jets history and players will all be there. Wow!!! THAT WILL BE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
