  1. I rode a lot as a kid, but I moved to the city when I was 19 and haven't been on one since. My wife would never let me get one anyways. Her uncle died on one, and a friend of ours (more friend of friends, but still...) died on one just a few years ago. They're pretty dangerous. I've seen some crazy things happen on them. One buddy went through the ice on the river. It was super cold that day and we were lucky we were so close to a house. Another friend had his head run over when he fell off the back of a sled and the next guy in line couldn't stop in time. Lucky he was wearing a helmet, so no major damage. Just loosened his teeth.
  2. Or beating them to death.It's hard to care as much if we play them once a month.
  3. Agreed. Third year in a row we've got three games against them, with a preseason game thrown in for good measure. Four games against one team is too much. Switch up who in the West we get those 3rd games against each year, and make our preseason games against the teams we only play twice.
  4. Fan interest.

    I just found out that 80s jobber Barry O is Cowboy Bob Orton's brother. Also, when I googled him to confirm that, I saw that he was the Zodiac in Stampede Wrestling. Crazy...

  7. Rod Hill was the best cb I've seen play for the Bombers. Less Browne would be #2. Bolden was amazing, but wasn't he mostly a db?
  8. Didn't we have approx 200 punts returned for touchdowns against us when Jon Ryan was punting? Seemed like it anyways. Out kicking your coverage was a real thing when he was here. Anyways, I'll fight anybody who says Bob Cameron wasn't our best punter.
  9. David William Naylor‏Verified account @TSNDaveNaylor 54s55 seconds ago Hearing Winnipeg OC Paul LaPolice has withdrawn from the head coach search in Toronto. Apparently, didn’t feel it was right fit given need to retain multiple members of existing staff. #CFL #Argos #Bombers
  10. David William Naylor‏Verified account @TSNDaveNaylor 2m2 minutes ago The @Ticats will announce today that Orlondo Steinauer is their new head coach and that June Jones is moving to associate head coach and offensive co-ordinator. #CFL #Ticats
  11. Poor decision imo, but as a Pens fan I like it. Holmgren making decisions for them is best case scenario for that division. If I'm the Oilers, I hire him and Quenneville to run the team.
  12. UFC

    I'm pretty sure I could ko the 2018 version of Chuck Lidell. Video of that fight should be shown to every young fighter as a warning to save your money.
  13. Late to the party on this one, but I'm very happy Tony Clement is out of Federal politics. I can't stand that guy. The fact he was humiliated for being outed as a dirtbag is just the icing on the cake.
  14. Remember when it was all Dallas Eakins' fault? I see a similar pattern of 17to85 absolving everybody of blame except the head coach.

    I have to correct myself, it's 33 wins over last three seasons. 33-21 in that period, which is the second best record in the league over that span. That seems like a stronger argument for keeping him than not throwing Hurl under the bus does for firing him.

    Win 31 games games over the last three seasons.
  17. Didn't the Redblacks go to the Grey Cup the year they signed four experienced receivers in fa? It's not the worst idea.
  18. I don't think so either. His family being from BC has me worried that that's where he's going.
  19. Begelton, Matthews, & Jorden in Calgary, Walker & Bryant in Edm, and Saunders in Hamilton are all pending ufas (I think). Landing any one (or two) of them would be great.
  20. Ticats D walking a fine line between intensity and stupidity.
  21. Thompkins had 57 yards receiving in the last six games. I don't think his removal will affect our offense much.
  22. Assuming this is regarding their work and we're not being creepy, I like the hometown girl. Brodie Lawson's tv spots are kind of puff pieces. They're both very likable though, and TSN can't go wrong by giving them more airtime.
  23. After we ended their season, I figured they'd spend their new found spare time watching videos of homeless people taking dumps. Seems to be a real fetish for some of them.
