Justin Medlock made a super classy acceptance speech, humorous and heartfelt, as he was inducted into the Blue Bomber hall of fame Wednesday night, thanking the Blue Bombers for giving him the best 4 years of his career. Well done Money Medlock.

What a talent. I am glad he's going into the Winnipeg Blue Bombers hall of fame.

Wow
a) why didn't I hear about him going in sooner?
b) he got in pretty quickly, having only retired a few years ago
c) good for him!
d) when's he coming back?  the CFL is short on good kickers

Ditto. He was a major key in the team's success during his tenure - both in terms of talent and leadership.

Congrats to Medlock, well deserved honour!

But he shouldn't have missed that one kick in the '19 GC 

Missed his chance at GC history.  I would root for Castillo to break that record, but I'm really hoping for more majors in this GC, not FGs.

Makes sense.

One of best of all time

Real nice touch! Maybe the Jets can take note of doing stuff like this!

I'd rather the Jets win a few games first.

Because you didn't read this announcement that came out at the end of June: http://forums.bluebombers.com/index.php?topic=55001.0

Crucial role in the Lapolice/Nichols years. Get enough safe offense to get in his range, and he was money just about all the time.

I still think of what could have been in the 2016 semifinal at BC Place when we asked him to make a 65 yarder. I know the call was controversial but what if he made the kick (historic), we win the game and then just maybe we go all the way and win the cup? We were humming that year.

Anyway, congrats Money Medlock!

Oops, I did miss it!  Must have been busy that week.  Hate it when that happens.

Interesting he calls it his "best": bit of a snub to HAM?  Or will he say "best" there when he get inducted into their HoF?    Or is he speaking more "statistically"?

Is it strange at all that he's getting in with "only" 4 years here?  I guess we're basing HoF access more on production than on longevity?  I'm fine with that, as he did win quite a few games on the back of his crazy FG range and accuracy.

Did you miss the Dubois ceremony on Tues?
