looks like they fixed it now.

drawing the ire of Murphy Brown isn't hard. Just be anything but a Democrat.

I get why Notley is doing this and so am not totally against it. It's not her fault that our country is so screwy we can't even build a simple pipeline.

There were a lot of things going against Bush, but to understand why people say that vote splitting was a big issue you have to look at actual numbers. Perot got almost 20 million votes in that election. That's a lot.

He lost due to Ross Perot splitting the vote on the right.

if we could all live that long...

I think Woody came to visit one time too.

They are going to need new girls, all of them are dead except for Betty White...

Who is left? Murray Edwards? Any of the old guys still alive? They were the ones making the city hum when I lived there. Seaman, Riddell, Kwong, Scurfield, McCaig….

all of the city-builders responsible for so much in Calgary are dead. And no one seems to be stepping up to take their place. Clay Riddell was the last one. And you are right about Nenshi, when I saw Nenshi holding the Cup over his head in a Stamps sweater at the 2014 Grey Cup for his photo op I shouted "Be a real fan and build your city a new stadium!!!!"

Great - I will take it from random internet guy that there was twice the turnout. That could mean you and one other guy as opposed to just you. Whatever. If it's just all the Calgarians I know who don't care anymore, that is fine, and if that lets you sleep at night, even better. No I'm actually not. You just don't want to hear it. Fine. Don't listen then. The ignore feature is awesome. Talk out of your own ass jerk-off. Why is it that a lot of other teams' fans who come on here have to be such gi-normous ******-bags. Unbelievable. That's just excuse-making. So why wasn't a stadium built when things were going well? Regina and Winnipeg have much smaller economies and they were able to pull together as communities and get beautiful facilities built. Something to be proud of. Calgary just won the Grey Cup! This is a perfect time to start on a new campaign to start building a stadium, using the same models as Winnipeg used. Make the Stamps pay back part of the loan! Use some freaking imagination instead of wallowing in self-pity, and crying on other teams' fan forums about how non apathetic your apathetic city is. It's just sad.

yeah that's him. He also did a stint on the Amazing Race a few years ago with his dad.

I think the Diversity thing is really awesome. Connecting with the next generation is really important, as the average sports fan is aging, and there's fewer people coming up behind them to take their place. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-sports-with-the-oldest-and-youngest-tv-audiences-2017-06-30

We've been watching Murphy Brown too. It's weird that Avery is all grown up now. I like that he is on the "Wolf" Network, as it pits mother and son against each other idealism-wise, but they still find a way to live together and get along.

We are also hooked on two shows on Sunday night - 90 Day Fiance and The Curse of Oak Island. 90 Day is pure trash, but everyone we tell about that show becomes hooked. The people are just so stupid and crazy.

we watch it. Last night was ok, but the week before was really good. Saw the axe coming for Carl, it's always those who think that they are safe who get chopped.

it is at a level of blah in Calgary. I get that your are a fan of the Stamps but I am not, so I am just telling you my impression. You can say I'm wrong, and I'll just agree to disagree with you. Are you guys going to build a new stadium anytime soon? You've got the oldest stadium by far now. Or is the level of blah so big that no one cares?

Gisele Bundchen!

and when I say "faltered in 1982" I mean we got screwed by the refs.

that wasn't my point at all. People here are bemoaning Calgary's continued success. I am not saying wait for them to suck, but that they inevitably will suck again. But in the mean-time, that's no excuse. We can take them, we just need to get better. We gave the Eskimos some really good runs even when they were at their best. 1982 should have been our year but we faltered in the WF, and then two years later we won the Cup. If we continue to progress next year and get to the WF again, but win it all in 2020, I'm good with that.

I like the Freudian slip. His statement would literally be true if this were Vancouver or Toronto....
