There is measures in place for the states as well. If the president steps down, there is an order of who is in charge starting with the Vice President. Our system is setup that you vote more for a party / representative then the leader. What you are asking for would seem to me to be getting closer to the American system.

Thanks. I had input Hamilton winning for some reason instead of Montreal. Everyones points on that game would have just got an adjustment.

Schedule makers have decided on a Wednesday game again this week. Picks need to be in by Wednesday @ 6:30PM. Standings are below:

Another early game next week with picks needing to be in by Tuesday @ 6:30 PM Standings are below:

People are people no matter what era. There are always going to be those that question and not believe. While disappointing, this really isn't anything new. It is unfortunately human nature. https://crosscut.com/2020/05/seattle-always-had-anti-vaxxers-even-during-smallpox

People should be getting vaccinated, but you can't compare death numbers from 100 years ago to today, especially when it comes to a pandemic. You need to compare percentage of population. In 1918 the world population was between 1.6 and 2 billion. Now it is at 7.8B.

Would people be for or against Roberts going up on the Bombers Ring of Honour?

There was talk on CJOB on the post game show after the game how Collaros was misused and unhappy in Saskatchewan. Was being forced to play in a way that didn't match his skillset. Not allowed to run outside the pocket, very much was constrained to the "system". You need to be matching both coaching and talent to succeed. It can't be just because of one.

Did she get the job?

If you are saying he could have gave more by actually training and not smoking, then sure maybe you could peg that at 75%. Was it 75% on plays where he didn’t get to touch the ball. Maybe. But when he got the ball in his hands, it was 110% every time. There is no other way for him to do what he did.

9 people were able to pick 4 / 4 last week and we now have 15 people within the top 4. Picks next week need to be in by Friday @ 6PM. Standings are below:

If you watch him on returns he stops and is hesitant as soon as a defender is a few yards away from him. It looks as if he doesn't want the contact. And that indecision and stutter stops any possibility of a larger return. And no, it isn't always the blocking, he could make more gains if he just went for it.

They claim it does work to treat but I think most effective at preventing. The problem I see with using it as an alternative to vaccines, is using it to cure means it won't stop Covid from spreading and mutating, and using it to prevent seems a logistical nightmare to implement at a societal level. Imagine if people who are against showing proof of vaccination had to show proof they were taking a pill every week.

I heard about Ivermectin and Covid a month or two back. As far as I can tell this is the origin of it. https://journals.lww.com/americantherapeutics/fulltext/2021/06000/review_of_the_emerging_evidence_demonstrating_the.4.aspx Even if this does prevent Covid, it would need to be taken regularly (weekly I believe) by enough of the population until the virus stopped spreading and died out. Which seems more complicated and error prone then people getting a couple of shots.

To be clear I’m not an advocate for people to take Ivermectin for Covid in lieu of getting vaccinated. If you are healthy and able, go get ******* vaccinated. But Ivermectin has been used on humans for parasites for quite some time. https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/ivermectin-oral-route/proper-use/drg-20064397 It is also instrumental in treating river blindness in Africa. https://parasitesandvectors.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1756-3305-7-241 People self treating with Ivermectin and using versions and doses of the drug designed for animals and not humans because that is the only prescription they can get need to give their head a shake

Locking this thread and have removed a few posts. Lets all try to be civil to each other

You haven’t lost anything. The game just isn’t played.

No point this week for the Edmonton / TO game. It may still be rescheduled. If it does, we will add it to that weeks games. If it is forfeited, then no one gets a point for it and it wouldn't affect the relative standings.

Tough week last week with an average of 1.4 correct picks per person. Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 6:30PM. Current standings are below:
