It's time for the Riders to start sucking ...
The Rider D has been awful all year. That said, other than Edmonton taking them out by 25 and Hamilton by 10, they have been close in all their games. With Smith at the helm, they've been under 200 yards passing in two of three. Under three hundred yards of net offense in two of three. Still we'll be playing a young QB and Labour Day is usually a horror show for us. I think we lose Labour Day but win the Banjo Bowl. It all depends on our D. If we continue the positive trend and force some turnovers, we win both.

If I were Wade miller I would...
I think with Willy's injury, MOS gets all of next year. Then its been three years and you assess. Marcel needs to be let go though and a new OC needs to come in. Marcel is bad to average and this year, last year, 07, 08, basically the last 4 seasons he's been an OC it has been bad.

Election 2015
Hell, the NDP took $344,000 in union donations to pay for their last leadership race which they were forced to pay back. How big of a story was that? Now imagine what happens if the Tories took $344,000 from oil companies or the five major banks to pay for a leadership campaign.

Ticket prices are becoming an issue for sure.

Montreal Fires Higgins, Popp to be Interim HC
Defence is improving. Sure we have problems but this is a year where somebody is getting in with a so so record. If we can stay ahead of BC, Mtl and the Riders, we are in and heck I'd take that.

August 23 practice report
Neufeld at RT. Can he be solid or are we seeing a Devin Tyler etc type performance?

August 23 practice report
Exactly. You pass on him for a project in Wauld and then take another project in Morgan.

Depends which Ottawa team you get.

Christo Bilukdi And Andy Mulumba watch
We hold Mulumba's rights until we give them up, no 1-2 year limit on draft picks.

Election 2015
Linda McQuaig on the passing of Hugo Chavez: "For those concerned with social justice, Chavez’s passing is a sad milestone. It will surely be a while before we’ll see such a feisty mix of Robin Hood, Che Guevara and Michael Bublé straddling the world stage." Chavez shut down more than 30 TV and radio stations that were critical of him. Murder rate triples. Wide spread corruption etc. I don't see a ton of media articles on her or pieces on tv and radio despite her having some pretty far left views. I did see a ton on the old guy at the Duffy trial though. The NDP has said they'd rip of the Clarity Act and have members who have separtist ties. How many articles have you read on that?

Election 2015
Going back several years, when polls were done of the parlimentary press gallery, the majority aligned themselves with the NDP so calling the media in the country left leaning isn't that crazy of a statement. Consider this one, 2004, 2006 any Conservative candidate who said or had said anything crazy or controversial, tons of media coverage (rightly so), NDP in 2015, not to the same degree.

Week 9 - Cal.@ Ssk., Ott.@ Tor.
Those interviews during the game need to stop. I think what sums it up best is this, the Riders lost, it was a good day.

Is B.C. worse than the Blue?
I'd take one less starting NI perhaps. Not sure if it is the injuries, too many NIs playing or just an off year.

Week 9 - Cal.@ Ssk., Ott.@ Tor.
Jeff "Destroyer of Franchises" Reinbold? Can I hope that on the Riders?

Week 9 - Cal.@ Ssk., Ott.@ Tor.
Hamilton is the best team until further notice. Their fans should start buying Grey Cup tickets. (No, Wade Miller did not ask me to post this)

Grey Cup & Banjo Bowl Temporary Stands
We had about 3-3.5 million in profit this past year, no? 25,500 tickets at say $250 is 6.4 million. Lose $, no. Make less than expected, yes.

Grey Cup & Banjo Bowl Temporary Stands
With commiting to my season tickets for 3 years, it was $400 (tickets for me and my dad). I took it as the chance to take my dad to the game cause you never know. Also I've never been to Grey Cup. Part of me thinks this reflects poorly on Winnippegers and part of me thinks that given some of the issues we've had in the last decade it makes a lot of sense.

The low sales reflect poorly on Winnipeg. I think it will be quite a while before we get another Grey Cup.

This Day In 2009
That Reid game was great. The comeback on Thanksgiving with the Printers meltdown too. Oh and the comeback against Calgary in 02 with Incompleterson getting a TD and taunting before we shut him up.

Wonder if he is being traded? Can you imagine him being cut? There would be a ton of teams lined up for him. Hope he gets cut and he comes to the Bombers.

If the Liberals had picked Marc Garneau, I think they'd have won this election.
