  1. Mulumba? Pence? What about everyone’s favorite … Jade Etienne?
  2. Walter’s was the special teams coach and had just moved into assistant GM. Questionable how much influence he had on the prior regime. He was interim GM in 2013. Hired O’Shea that off season when he had the interim tag removed and he and O’Shea have been together since. It takes all people executing at a high level to have the success the Bombers have had in the last 7 years.
  3. There is also a time to disagree and commit so the whole team can move on. Should anyone be happy about being benched? No Should you pout and come of as whiny in front of the whole team? No Take it up with the coach behind closed doors. Don't let it spill over to affect any one else. And if ultimately you can't reconcile differences with management, you leave for a better situation as soon as you can.

    Tough week last week with two underdogs winning and a tie. Fun fact, there were only 5 correct picks made across ALL 3 games. Picks this week need to be in by Friday @ 6PM Standings below:
  5. Cable and tv channels will be gone within 10 - 20 years depending on when they think the subscriber base is low enough / when they age out. I have cable but only watch football and hockey on it. Everything else is streaming, youtube and podcasts for younger generations. Already see streaming services starting to buy the rights to professional sports. And when this all happens, guaranteed consumers will end up paying more.

    Picks this week need to be in by Friday @ 6:30PM. Standings below:
  9. Younger generations aren’t getting their drivers license at the same rate as older generations did. Autonomous cars will become a standard within the next 10 years. Then add another 10 for older cars to age out. Then the lawsuits will be on the AI when it needs to make an impossible decision.
  10. No one is trying to let him off the hook. Of course he chose to drink and drive, and that was a really bad decision, and that is 100% on him. But it is also true that is very very likely that him drinking impaired his judgement and how he was driving.
  11. This is exactly what alcohol does to people. https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/alcohol-and-brain-overview#:~:text=Alcohol interferes with the brain's,injuries and other negative outcomes.
  12. Alcohol impairs judgement. Why are you trying to dismiss drunk driving? And justify "some people can have 5 or 6 beers and still drive"? Thats ridiculous and irresponsible.
  13. Through the club. We get ours with our season tickets. https://www.bluebombers.com/tickets-3/game-day-parking/

    This article would seem to indicate that theft is on the rise https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/7-eleven-stores-in-winnipeg-could-close-1.7294935

    Picks this week need to be in by Saturday @ 6PM. Happy Labour Day! Standings below:
  17. I'd like to see Lapo stay in the booth. He actually has football insights and breaks down plays. More substance than the fluff than you tend to see with the other color guys. He will only get better with practice. I don't think he is "super" comfortable in the role yet, but given time to settle in and find his pacing, I think he can be their best color commentator.
  18. Does TSN pay that poorly?

  21. That is a brutal hit.
  22. Believe they used a good portion of it on Oliveira's deal.
