    Lowry was quoted on Twitter today saying there will be changes this off season. Even players are speaking out. He’s a keeper.

    If it was really important or mattered, people should bring that forward now. Otherwise, it's a political stunt.
  5. My Left Knee Replaced

    As you may or may have not noticed, I've been away. I had my left knee replaced on April 19th. It's been 9 days & it's been rough. Pain was extreme until this past Tuesday or Weds. Using T4's & T3's to control the pain although the past 3 days have been better. My use of meds has fallen off the past 3 days. Using a walker to get around the house. Getting in & out of chairs is certainly a challenge as it's difficult to get up & down. I haven't gone out but if I do this weekend, I'll use crutches. All I can say is my Donjoy Ice Machine is a lifesaver. It just takes the pain away in bed. Allows me to get as decent a night's sleep as I can. I spoke with the surgeon afterwards in recovery. He said that I had the worst knee he has ever saw in all his years of doing surgery. as he put it. "It was bad!! B-A-D!!!" My thanks to the Rockyview Orthopedic Floor, Unit 81 for the great care, compassion & attention. I'm not back yet. Just wanted to drop a line to let you guys know & also wish Tracker well in his upcoming knee surgery in May.

    Bastions of freedom? If you're a white racist, for sure. Book burning, attacking children and parents, culture wars, protecting pedophiles and the ability to shoot people you don't like. This does sound like something the UCP and Smith would want. Also seems to the be the CPC/PPC position as well. The ****ing worst people.

    Anyone who hasn't seen the presser, it is a must watch IMO. Pretty much sums up the feelings of a lot of the fans as well. You have a coach in Maurice who basically fired himself because he was out of ideas with this group. Bring in Bowness, who at his age and where he is in his career / retirement, can be very open and honest with what he says here. Changes are needed.

    I'm not even mildly concerned about going over and paying a fine. Whatever it takes. I doubt Wade is sweating it...

    because it's less than 100k, it's just a dollar-for-dollar fine. Over 100k, you lose a draft pick.

    I'm laughing at that but yeah! If we had journalists worthy of the name, somebody would ask TSN that.
  18. Catching up on the preseason news. Anyone arguing that losing televised preseason games is anything but a bad thing is not arguing in good faith. The CBS news seems like a win.
  19. Notice how Dave Naylor & Farhan Lalji said part of the tv package is to promote the league down south. So then, what's TSN's excuse??

    Way to miss the point but at this point I expect that from you. I went to school with Jeff and he wasn't a likeable person then and imo has gotten worse. However good of you to lie and say things that nobody ever posted. He gets in because he is in one of the most conservative parts of the city and yes he represents those voters. Doesn't mean he represents the views of the entire city. Oh and Gillingham got 27% of the vote, one of the lowest for an elected mayor ever. He also doesn't represent the will or wishes of most of Winnipeg. If you want to vote for a guy who thinks its a waste of time to listen to people presenting to council because in his mind he knows better (a fairly anti democratic position), advocated calling the police to roust homeless people from bus shelters and stated online that he would be sending the police to a community group that runs a food bank in his ward because they also supported safe injection sites then go ahead. Its your right in a democracy. If I lived in his ward, I would not vote for him for the aforementioned reasons. Additional reasons would be his complaining about the decay of Harbour View and it not getting enough funding despite him having been the councilor for that area for 16 years, several of which when he was on EPC (Clear he didn't do anything on the file) and his support of extending Chief Peguis and widening Kenaston.
  22. Some more reading material for the upcoming draft. Barker gives out a couple backhanded compliments that made me chuckle like saying one guy is "a solid USPORTS LB with no special qualities". One receiver doesn't run very well but hey he catches everything... well except 50/50 balls anyway. 😂 https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/2023-cfl-draft-barker-s-top-5-prospects-at-each-position-1.1952787

    At worst, what you described and is shown in the video might be battery (unwanted touching). The PC party is infested with lawyers and if there was even a shred of actionable evidence, you bet your bippy they would have called the police.

    During the televised portion of the Freedom Convoy inquiry held in Feb. I thought James Bauder came across as the looniest of the toons on display, apparently God speaks directly to him and told him to start a convoy. For Danielle Smith the chance to rub shoulders with him prior to an upcoming election is better than a bee to honey. Oh and apparently Theo attended the same event, can't wait for that photo to turn up.

    After this full season I’m actually not worried about replacing Schief, Wheels, PLD, or even Helle. Will there be short term pain? Yes. But we’ve already seen this group fail in the playoffs for enough seasons now to know we need to start the process of changing the character of this team (not all, but the so called leaders). The time for talking about it is done …

    Trump is trying to get the Republican lead house to stop the investigation into the documents that he stole. So to recap we have a multiple failed business man who been divorced may a time serial cheater, who stole classified documents, claimed in a audio tape that he could kiss any women and grab them by the p***y, called for an insurrection, wants to put enemies in jail, grifts constantly and he is going to be the nomination of the Republicans for President.

    Not looking to absolve him- he did what we did, and he should be held accountable for it. Do I think the shmucks are trying to blow this out of proportion, embellish this, and politized the **** outta this because they really have nothing to run on other than, OMG, he's a thug? Yes. Yes, I do. It's sad that that the NDP is saddled with this leader- too much baggage. I feel that NDP policies with a terrible leader are much better than PC policies with or without a good leader.

    I heard him on the radio this morning he said EXACTLY what many MBB posters were saying- they are going to use Khan's clean record and Wab's past history and politicize the **** out of this... Lost a lot of respect for Khan. What a "piece of ****".

    If the Jets had any net presence they could get a bunch of greasy goals. Brossoit is pretty bad about giving up rebounds but no one nearby to get a second shot.

    As much as Scheifele is the lightning rod for criticism on the team for lazy play, the team’s worst playoff games have been without him in the lineup the last 3 seasons.
  45. Was hoping it would be more than this, but it's something... And likely better than ESPN. Little less than 115k/team...

    Speaking of smoothbrains: https://pressprogress.ca/conservative-mp-repeatedly-refuses-to-say-if-pierre-poilievre-supports-giving-workers-a-raise/ “Ok, I’m just going to register that’s not an answer to the direct question,” Kapelos replied.
