Covid-19
So Manitoba instituting 'isolation centres' to force people to self-isolate even if they've only been in contact with someone who has tested positive... thanks to a few small clusters. Insane. I can't imagine what things would be like if this actually was as contagious and deadly as we believe...

Well that would have brought us up to $320,000... only $29,680,000 to go...

Wow - I always believed they would get the deal done. Sure sounds like Toronto was deadweight and Ambrosie was unrealistic. What a bummer.

Qualifier : Game 4
Kulikov and buff gone - that’s what $10-12 mill? Little is likely retiring... that’s a lot of cap space theres some decent big D on the market - we will get Dillon or Hamonic or both or trade niku and Copp for Trouba... jets are really dropping the ball on developing a second C though - don’t see us trading for one - Roslo needs to step up lafreniere will be nice for seven minutes a game while Maurice seasons him for five years...

CFL could easily be covering that with the CERB wage subsidy like the rest of us... I just don’t understand the package they are asking for - seems like they just asked for a loan without a real plan CERB wage subsidy covers all those people listed to 70-80% - BDC has had a large scale CERB emergency loan program available for three months now - the interest is low on that even if it’s not interest free - plus you always have an option to negotiate for a forgiveable loan down the line would be good to see some details - I no longer see the roadblock facing the CFL

I’m quibbling about the fact that it’s apples and oranges. And that sports fans are crying about how art is not important ha - the same way the rest of the country says sports are pointless

Easy to take shots like this but this is a federally owned facility - not a private business - and not employing a majority of Americans CFL looks like it’s totally fumbles this funding request... first time for me that it looks like there will be no season

I just feel super disappointed for Trouba's dad and their sports app.

Qualifier : Game 1
There have been a lot of players who have used moves like this - slew foot, slide the stick under someone’s skate, jump to avoid a player with your elbows as high as possible - glen anderson comes to mind... it’s always intentional. That’s just the type of player he is

He kicked him and cut him - even if not intentional you need to control your skates

Qualifier : Game 1
Calgary just followed the same game plan everyone uses against the jets - send a fore checker to hammer our D behind our net, lineup at the blue line to prevent zone entry.. without Scheifele it worked jets need to sign one or two big talented D - sad that Wheeler is our enforcer

BDC charges higher interest rates because it’s a lender of last resort - however they have quietly forgiven loans once it’s all said and done - CFL is doing too much complaining and not enough creative thinking

Covid-19
I guess its fun to say how horribly out of control Alberta is... but again I don't see it The serious cases/deaths seem centred on the Good Samaritan nursing home https://edition.cnn.com/2020/07/30/health/t-cells-coronavirus-study-wellness/index.html?fbclid=IwAR1u8ZPOwkdACcgEMlkjNJH7bwWUzYDHik7uHjrbsP41xiUWnqsdciqKH2E Antibody testing is showing how rampant covid was in mid-May... 36000 Albertans infected before lockdown started. I'd be very interested to see tracking numbers of deaths and hospitalizations. New data for Canada is saying that beyond the 80% of deaths in nursing homes... 80% of the remaining deaths are minority/poverty related Seems like the only thing we aren't talking about is care for the elderly and the poor right now.
