Random question of the week
lol. good choice. I remember when canucks came back from canada russia series, plane door opened, cashman was standing there, blitzed. 😂 lot of stickwork by wayne. the way the league was then made me stop watching hockey. I have a hazy memory of him entering the tv screen from one side, in the air, horizontal, with stick held like a lance, went through and exited other side of screen in the air. most disliked, currently, lebron.

crum and powell both looked pretty cool, calm, looking downfield for a play. not panicking.

Semi fic*ed "So that brings us back to where we started. Yes, we have failed to prevent dangerous climate change. It is here. What remains to be seen is just how bad we’re willing to let it get. A window of opportunity remains for averting a catastrophic 1.5C/2.7F warming of the planet, beyond which we’ll see far worse consequences than anything we’ve seen so far. But that window is closing and we’re not making enough progress. We cannot afford to give in to despair. Better to channel our energy into action, as there’s so much work to be done to prevent this crisis from escalating into a catastrophe. If the extremes of this summer fill you with fears of imminent and inevitable climate collapse, remember, it’s not game over. It’s game on." Michael Mann, eminent climate scientist. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jul/19/heatwave-climate-omen-change-course-weather-models I volunteered all winter feeding at a salmon hatchery, van. island. there are people there who have spent sixty years working on this project. we released the fish into a few streams. yesterday we were asked to get ready to move them, by buckets, cause the one of the streams has dried up, due to record low rainfall. very disturbing. how awful to see your life work, selflessly spent helping others, destroyed for the sake of billionaire oil company owners like the kochs. who are investors in Alberta I think.

I saw that exchange. how is it possible, for a fan, during the game, to know that the centre made a bad protection call? riddle me that!

I think the Grey Cups were helped a lot by arrival of Ringmaiden, now , player wise, we are seeing the effect of him going to B.C. we are losing ground, and B.C. is on the upswing. losing him was unfortunate. I also think willie J. is in on too many plays. wont be able to sustain the effort.

it is on the surface, odd to have a player who only carrries the ball a few times a game, to get a first down. third and short. the play is highly predictable.... 9 time in 10 they run into the line. put in an actual ball carrier to do this. a running back, receiver, kick returner. if they bust through, they could score from anywhere. prukop will get caught. do something different once in a while.

thought dickensen's threat to dump players was interesting. "So now we have to find the same ways, or we have to get new players. " maybe coach better Dave. the guy seems obnoxious. I say keep both dicks around makes it easier for Bombers.
