MR. BRUCE
From Gerry Doyle
Yes Mr. Mature ! Its your boy Gerry ! The more times I watch your MJ tribute it seems to get better and better ! Those defenders can't hold you . Whats up with Kerry cryin about your tribute , must not be a MJ fan . Maybe next time you can do the moonwalk and slow up a little, cuz you too FAST for Kerry !Lets try for a couple multi TD games , you have shown the world what you are capable of doing so lets get the ball in your hands so you can run with it and at the end of the season have big drink out of that grey cup ! You and Reggie are force to reckon with and should tear up the league pending Kerry gives you guys the ball . No defense can hold you guys ,your too fast and defenses get confused ! In my eyes you are NFL product and deserve more touches! Remember the more touches means more touch downs ! You da man BRUCE aka MR. MATURE
MUCH APPRECIATED.

From Joanne Dickinson
Hi Mr. Bruce. My name is Joanne and you are my favorite player on my favorite team. I am disabled and well my husband managed to get us tickets to your home game against Calgary. I know I cannot get autographs but the thing is I am going to scrap book my time at the game and was wondering if you send fans pictures, don't need to be autographed but would be nice, i am never doing anything with the pic like put it on ebay...I want it for a page in my scrapbook...it is going to be 4 pages 12 by 12 size so i thought it would be nice if i had a signed picture. Probably should not ask but could you? Do you? I have watched you for years...sorry about the game last night...against Calgary....its done so get ready for winnipeg and i will be rooting for you. Joanne Dickinson Argo Fan Bruce Fan God bless, joanne
THATS NICE OF YOU TO DO THAT. YOU CAN GET ACTION SHOTS OFF OF GOOGLE. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS.
MR. BRUCE

From Andre Hyman
First I would like to say to you that I am a fan of your intensity, the CFL needs more pure talent like you! Your the best since the "Rocket" Ismail!!! Don't hate on the coach, he is just being a coach. You two can settle this like men. Trust me! You two are like the saying "two bulls can't lead the same territory" Work together Spiderman!!! The Boatmen need you, "KJ" needs you. Try to resolve these matters. Your Tdot Fan. Andre' Hyman
GURANTEE. APPRECIATE IT.
MR. BRUCE

MR. BRUCE
From Lara
Hi Arland, I'm sorry, I don't have a question. I just wanted to let you know that you've got our full support no matter what Mr. Andrus says or does. My son just loves you - that's why I got season tickets for the Argos. One day during "See you on the field" you gave him a high-five and that was the best day of his life. He has dreams of playing in the CFL because of you. We've never seen you as anything less than a consummate professional, an incredible player, and one of the best things about the Argos. You're a credit to the sport and the league. Keep on keepin' on! ~L Sookoo
THANK YOU, SO MUCH.
MR. BRUCE
From Lee
Arland , I heard you not playing tomorrow. "That really sucks" I can not believe you been treated as a naughty Teenager.We all have to blow of steam sometimes,You are the best Receiver, You and I have met a few times, I can tell you, You are a Great Role Model for me.It is amazing to me,when people do not like the way you think or you stand up in what you believe in "People say you have a bad attitude". The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid,or the beg and call list or when I act a little selfish .People say I have an Attitude.You know Arland all what it means, that We have the courage and strength to allow us to be who We truly are and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think We 'should' be. My mom taught me that.I guess Bart Andrus does not like you.Anyway If you have nothing to do,I would like to invite you to my Birthday tomorrow the 24th of July.Not because you Arland Bruce, but because You are a great person, with a great Heart,and say Thank you, with a piece of Cake .I am going to be 17, my mom is not wealthy,we have a humble home, but you Welcome to join us.Also my mom is not Star struck,she will treat you just as she treats me, with respect, and will not fall over your feet..lol lol.or get all google eyed..lol So Arland keep your Head up High,no matter what people say "You know who you are and that is all what matters". God Bless you and yours from Lee
YOU SAID IT ALL FAMILY. THANK YOU.
MR. BRUCE

MR. BRUCE
From Argo Nut
I'm not sure if this is the right time to communicate with you on your website, but as a fan of the Toronto Argonauts and a fan of ABlll, I hope the present situation with the football team is put aside and that you remain a Double Blue until the end of your career. It's not about who is at fault, or who said what... Let's just move on and lead this team to the Gray Cup!

From Mark Leslie
question Arland..Arland as a diehard long time fan, what the hell is going on? I'm floored,shocked and really sad with this whole situation. I can't believe this whole scene is happening with one of my fave players. I have to admit I wasn't big on the MJ thing but is the rest being blown out of proportion or what? I guess the Argonauts "We Are Family" deal is done. Hope the best for yah however this turns out. Take Care, Mark Leslie 'The Argoholics'
THIS IS OUR LEAGUE!
MR. BRUCE
From Charles
Good luck, you have always been one of my favourite Argo's of all time. You are very talented and I wish you the best. It seems certain you will be released or traded, I look forward to being a fan of whatever place you move on to. You probably deserve to make alot more money than you did in the CFL, but I imagine its a good living $150,000 per year plus bonus is the rumour I read about your salary. I hope you have created a home here in Canada and you will continue your football career. Man you were exciting to watch at the Rogers Centre. take er easy and good luck, from an average CFL fan...Charles, Barrie Ontario
MUCH APPRECIATED.
MR. BRUCE
From Kathy:
question HI MR. BRUCE, MY HUSBAND IS A HUGE FAN OF YOURS AND RECENTLY HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER. COULD YOU PLEASE IF YOU CAN PUT TOGETHER A SURPRISE SIGNED PACKAGE OF YOURSELF SO HE CAN FEEL BETTER IN FIGHTING THIS AWFUL DISEASE. IT WOULD REALLY CHEER HIM UP. HE LOVES- FOOTBALLS, PHOTOS, BOBBLEHEADS AND ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU COULD THINK OF TO SEND HIM. IS IT ALSO POSSIBLE TO SEND US A COUPLE OF TICKETS TO AN UPCOMING HOME GAME AS WELL? IF YOU ALSO CAN HAVE THE TEAM SIGN A FOOTBALL FOR HIM AS WELL? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE,
I WILL WORK ON SOMETHING FOR YOU.
MR. BRUCE
From TJ
