Jim Bell out as Bombers COO
Was Miller EVER really liked by fans? And I don't count the people that call into the post-game show. His best moment as a player was stepping in front of Asper when that idiot went on his hissy fit. But now, he's back on the board. Which makes me shiver.............. What does Miller the football player have to do with Miller the team president? Does being an unpopular player means he can't be a good executive? If Milt were running the show, instead of Miller, and doing a piss poor job of it, would you cut him slack because you like the way he played? I was never a fan of Miller when he played, but I do like a lot of what he's done to turn the team around since he took over.

Chiefs release Weston Dressler(Updated: Now signed by Riders)
Who is claiming to be better? The reality is that former Riders in Saskatchewan are treated to an especially high standard of living. That doesn't mean that Rider fans are superior just currently more obsessed (overall) with their team. FYP

Do you wear your Bomber gear to work on game day?
Our dress code won't allow it but an exception is usually made on the Friday before the Grey Cup (if we are playing anyway). I just wear a blue shirt on game day.

Robin Williams dead from apparent suicide - RIP
Sad to hear. He spent his life bringing happiness to others but couldn't find it for himself.

Esks @ Awful Als / Tabbies @ Leos
Had to laugh when he had Juran Bolden with a nice tackle in the 1st half.

Bombers release RB Will Ford
Ford only managed to get 39 yards himself... not exactly numbers to be bragging about. Grigsby should send a tweet lol'ing at Ford's receiving numbers (12 for Ford vs 61 for Grigsby).

Bombers release RB Will Ford
It looked to me like Ford was still playing (albeit sparingly) in the 4th quarter. At one point Messam needed a break & I'm pretty sure Ford came on for him.

Folklorama
There are lots of "duplicate" pavilions this year so if you miss one in the 1st week, there's a good chance that there is a very similar one the next week. Here's the list of cultures/countries that have more than one group putting on a pavilion: Africa/Caribbean (week 1) or two pavilions in week 2 (one just for Africa & a separate Caribbean one). Brazilian (week 1) or Alo! Brasil (week 2) Casa Do Minho Portugese (week 1) or Pavilion of Portugal (week 2) Ireland-Irish (week 1) or Celtic Ireland (week 2) Nayong Pilipino (week 1) or Pearl of the Orient Phillipine Pavilion (week 2) Serbian "Beograd" (week 1) or Serbian "Kolo" (week 2) Ukranian-Kyiv (week 1) or Spirit of Ukraine (week 2)

The Restaurant thread
Harveys has been open at Portage/Langside for quite some time. Really good and quality management - say hello to Prince if you go. Harveys also opening at old Chicken Delight location on Corydon/Stafford with a hybrid Harveys/Swiss Chalet duet. Construction seems to proceeding well - I suspect it will open no later than September 1st, perhaps a bit earlier. Just an update to confirm that is a Harveys/Swiss Chalet at the old Chicken Delight spot at Corydon & Stafford. Drove by last week & saw that it is now open for business.

Arland Bruce sues CFL over concussions
And maybe Logan's on welfare & lives in his parents basement. BTW, you have any idea how hard it is to get to the NCAA & the NFL even if he didn't make it? First, the competition coming out of high school, then to get recruited, to play well enough for 4 years to get drafted? The amount of work in the weight room & speed as well as conditioning year round? Being lazy has nothing to do with it. I don't think you have any clue. Logan can call Bruce a lot of things but being a typical lazy American? Nah. I have family in the US. One is in the Coast Guard in Oregon. Another is a civil engineer with the US Army Corps of Engineers. They're highly motivated over achievers. So,I take exception to the wide brush comment. Interesting that you jump all over this generalization when less than a month ago...

Why people hate cable and internet companies
Back on topic, I haven't had any issued with Shaw's costumer service any time I've had to deal with them. Rogers has been a bit less helpful but nothing to write about. I had MTS years ago before moving into my current home & had way more hassles with them than I've ever had with Shaw. Now my biggest beef with them now is their TV set-up. Their current set-up leaves gaps in where you can get TV service from them in the city. I live in one of these gaps so I can't get their TV (I can get phone & internet) but my neighbour directly across the street can? It was pretty funny a couple years ago when they would spam my mailbox with flyers bragging about their new HD services when I can't even sign up for their non-HD stuff. I'm happy with Shaw (there could definitely be improvements) and even if I could switch to MTS, I'm not sure that I would.... but I'd at least like the option!
