  1. Didn't like Proulx when he first became a head referee, but IMO he has morphed into the best head ref the league has.

  3. Not pissed, just very confused from a thread that appeared to me to already have run its course.
  4. If you want to put it to rest why the **** would you post in it when there has been one post in two months.. Apparently you still want to talk about this.

    Not every day you get to throw 6 TDs in a game

    Depending which source, the overall average car cost is also listed anywhere from 55 - 65k. The higher end skews things. Like most evolutions in cars, they start in the high end models and as the technology becomes cheaper and mass produced, they come down to lower end cars. Here is an interesting article on EV pricing and cheaper electric vehicles coming. Once you can get them around $30k Canadian with decent range (right now the cheaper models have reduced range), I think you will see them become more affordable to a larger percentage of the population.

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/gas-tax-manitoba-ndp-election-promise-1.6942451#:~:text=Ian Froese%2FCBC)-,Manitoba NDP Leader Wab Kinew says his party would temporarily,litre in provincial fuel taxes. But he has also claimed he will balance the budget in their first term. Would have to hope inflation subsides to put the tax back, otherwise that's an extra couple hundred million to balance.

    People will be able to vote for more than one with how this was setup. Switched it to one selection unless you really wanted people to be able to vote for more than one.
  11. Pulp fiction because the closing scene is actually continuing the opening scene.

    Bring back these!
  13. I don't know, why?
  14. Rich replied to Rich's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    Fingers crossed this may now be resolved. In terms of cpu and disk usage, everything has been back to normal levels for the last 6 or 7 hours. If this lasts through the day, I'd say we are good.
  15. Edmonton can't fire Jones without being severely hampered due to the Operations cap. This is probably the only change they can make so they have the appearance of doing something for the fans and attendance. If this is the reason for this, very unfortunate for Cui who gets handcuffed with a coach and GM he didn't hire and couldn't fire. Not sure the operations cap is the best thing for the league. Have to think that without it, Jones would have been fired long ago. Imagine if we couldn't fire Joe Mack and Tim Burke because we didn't want to be hampered by the operations cap for the next couple of seasons.

    Yeah, feel like I need to invest in one of these to keep rebooting the site

    It's not fixed. It will slow down again. Should get more technical help tomorrow. Have shut off everything and really narrowed this down to the forum software itself. Will see what their support says on Monday.

    I've been trying to dig into it off and on today. Which has meant many restarts, which only fixes the problem temporarily.
  20. It is still up and down.
  21. Rich replied to Rich's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    I haven't actually done anything to fix it. I've been keeping on eye on some monitoring of the server, there was an intermittent database process that was pinning CPU usage (and spiking disk access) to above 100% when we typically average below 50%. That was what was causing the slowdowns or freezes. I would reset the virtual environment when I noticed the site was unresponsive and it would fix it temporarily. I haven't had time to dig further into which query was actually causing it. That would have been my next step to address it, but today we look to be back at typical CPU usage. So, all the better for me, if this just fixed itself. I still need to do some digging just to make sure someone hasn't hacked the server and is mining bitcoin or something
  22. You may have noticed that the site has been somewhat slow today. Trying to diagnose what is causing it, but probably won't be able to dig in deeply until later today. May notice some intermittent up and down time while I try to figure out what is causing it

    How can Jones still have a job after this week. They are officially the worst team in pro sports history. https://3downnation.com/2023/07/14/edmonton-elks-tie-1953-st-louis-browns-all-time-pro-sports-record-with-20th-consecutive-home-loss/
