Tyrone Jones to be inducted into the Blue Bombers Ring of Honour
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers all-time leading sack getter will be added to the Ring of Honour later this year. The team announced Wednesday that Tyrone Jones will become the 17th member of the Ring during the Banjo Bowl on Sept. 6. Jones suited up for the Blue and Gold on two different occasions—from 1983 to 1987 and from 1989 to 1991. He helped the Bombers secure two Grey Cups in 1984 and 1990 and led the team in sacks for six seasons. He has 98 career sacks with the Bombers, which is the most in franchise history. He was also a four-time all-star, named the Most Outstanding Defensive Player in the 1984 Grey Cup and the CFL's Most Outstanding Defensive Player in 1985. 'He was an integral part of the Blue Bombers success in the 1980s/early 1990s as an exceptional defender and vocal leader,' said Wade Miller, the president and CEO of the Bombers. 'The Winnipeg Football Club is thrilled to add his name to its Ring of Honour.' Jones last played in the CFL in 1993. He was diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer in 2005 and passed away in 2008. He was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 2012. 'The Blue Bombers, that's all I used to hear from my dad. I still tell people to this day that my father is in the hall of fame in Canada for football, so to be added to the Blue Bombers Ring of Honour makes me even more proud of him,' said Tyler Livingston, one of Jones' sons.

'There's a very human relationship between four guys that met in high school and have a very complex dynamic.' While The Kids in the Crowd is a celebration of their legacy, it doesn't shy away from the more awkward moments either. 'I realized that I made some very bad fashion decisions throughout the years,' said Stinco. Simple Plan is currently touring and shows no signs of slowing down.
