White Cop Shoots Black Man, Charged With Murder
Don't run and you have a better chance of not being shot. Better yet, don't be in a stolen car, have warrants out for your arrest or don't be a thug and you have a better chance of not being shot.

White Cop Shoots Black Man, Charged With Murder
Comment of the week brother. All these shootings are only something because of the sensationalism. It keeps people nicely occupied.

Congratulations to buck!

Game 71: Blues @ Jets
If pav can win, more power to him. We need more people to step up. Maybe he knows his time in Winnipeg is coming to a close and it's time to show potential suitors what he's capable of.

CRTC to require cable, satellite companies to offer basic package, with $25 cap
This is a good thing. we always just play the companies off each other for their usual six month cheap deals. TV is a rip off. Glad to just have Netflix. But if they get this cheap, I might be in. I love the individual channel option and the smaller packages. All I really want is the networks with football games and NFL network. the rest isn't worth it.

New CFL Commish

In the neighbourhood
Bottom line to me is that the old laws (distracted driving etc.) were about safety and the no-cellphone laws are about revenue generation. Cops pretending to be beggars at stop lights really hit this home. And I've never been ticketed for either. I have no problem with laws against cell phone use. Way too many idiots staring at their damn phone when they should be staring at the road. worse than drunk drivers. Because they're sober and making dangerous decisions.

The TV Thread
It's liberating man, cutting the hypnocord. For someone who used to be in media, it's funny how I have moved away from most of it. Except MBB hahaha. The wife and I find we don't have much time for t.v. anyways. We just find stuff to do. Plus, when you stare at screens all day it's nice to rest the eyes.

Alberta, Taxes, and Socialism
Say what you will, healthcare here is waaaaaaay better than what we left behind in Manitoba. I love it here. Health practitioners in Calgary have done more for my chronic problems in 18 months than Manitoba dr.s did in 14 years.

Alberta, Taxes, and Socialism
Just had a guy working in our attic here in Calgary. He says there are major problems with inspectors and shoddy contractors. Just had a plumber in saying the same thing. The city says they have no money for inspectors........such B.S. We're lucky, we just bought a 1989 house. All good.

New stadium for the Stamps?
They need one. McMahon is outdated. Calgary deserves better. No more benches!

The TV Thread
TV is pretty much a wasteland of garbage. I get cable for football season and then ditch it. we have Netflix just for a couple good shows and the odd movie.

I am pleased with the amount of logical thinking on the subject of KG. Just say no to KG. Just say no to being average.

The market has spoken - SUN News Network has shutdown
No I'm not talking human rights, I'm talking anything on the right. I see it all the time on the internet. People had no trouble lambasting the view on networks like sun news, yet citing blogs from incredibly biased left wingers as truth. The left is very intolerant to anything other than their world view. Look at how much **** Alberta gets for maintaining low taxes. The left won't hear of any sort of positive, it's just a travesty and barbaric that they're not gouging the populace in order to spend spend spend. I often disagree with your football points, but this I totally agree with. Tolerant only of their own ideals. No side is perfect. And frankly, if you want the whole story for any news story you have to watch all networks and read all newspapers and then maybe you might hear 75% of the story. Everyone has an agenda.

Kevin Glenn's future
So then I really can't figure out how Glenn has lasted this long. Other than people thinking that Kevin Glenn 2015 is still KG 2007, which he isn't. Or, crazy thought here, you're selling Glenn short because of a personal bias against the player he is average at best and this is the CFL. There is a drought at quality qbs

Kevin Glenn's future
Long long time? Six years one way and four the other is not a long long time.
