    Covid-19

    Hearing of the protests at the hospitals, the craziness of taking dewormer instead of a vaccine, pushing against any effort to control to virus does have me dangerously close to being happy when I hear of the death of a vocal anti-vaxxer. I don't like that. As a teacher, I try to look at the causes of what is going on and how we can improve as a society in the future. Its a dire situation, but I really think we need to do a better job of explicitly teaching critical thinking at all levels of our educational system. It is already woven into other curricula, but it might require its own course. Perhaps even being elevated to the level of math/literacy. The world is changing faster than ever before and the rate of change keeps picking up. We need a population that is able to use critical thinking fluidly in a wide variety of situations otherwise we're left with hospitals being overwhelmed with people using dewormer because they read how unsafe a vaccine is.

  3. That's all Fajardo can do..hit the quick hitters and underneath seams..anything further down the field is 50/50 balls at best and 90 percent of time high and the receiver needs to make a tough catch...he has to sit in pocket and look for his reads he's horrible...I think we will scheme to take his short stuff away..like before...and will work great..Powell as well puts zero fear in me...that 2 yr layouff did not help him in anyway..

    Just ban anyone from taking the Pfizer vaccine. Tell them it's not safe and they'll line up for it. It's a collective of the stupidest right wing mouth breathers. They'll figtt to inject it.

  9. We spent a lot of time convincing ourselves that NFL scouting was being done well. I would say it was about average, given that many of those players had long CFL careers, but Canadian drafting was abysmal.

    I think ottawa makes a trade for Masoli,if Evans can keep him benched then I think hey may be prime for a trade. Nichols is either still nursing an injury or is just toast.

    Yeah fajardo is one of those guys where pressure is less important than contain. Make him be a pocket passer it won't work out well for him.

  13. Nelson returning kicks is depressing. May as well just walk the Offence out as soon as the ball is kicked. The play is over.

    I can't see how LaPo gets year 2. I don't care that his QBs suck. This might be the worst CFL offense of all time.

    Jason Kenney rewarding the idiots who helped create the largest 4th wave in the country. I am livid that my tax dollars are going towards this we have a civic election and a federal election this fall but the only election I want is a provincial one so we can boot this lunatic out on his ass so he stops ******* up everything in this province. Bumbles is just the worst. Go back on vacation if this is the best you have.

  29. He was 2-14 in 1970 taking over from Joe Zaleski who was fired. In 1971, he was 7-8-1 with newcomers Don Jonas,at qb. He went 10-6 in 1972 & finished first in the West. In 1973, GM Lunsford ripped the team apart cutting Herron & Thorpe after they were arrested for weed possession. A team that was primed to challenge for the Grey Cup in 1973 became a 4-11-1 last place team in the West. Lunsford made Spavital the scapegoat worried about saving his ass. The day Lunsford was fired in 1982 & was replaced by Paul Robson was a great day for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

    Do you find it interesting that if we had beat a first game BC team with Reilly throwing powderpuffs, a beat up Hamilton team(we beat them less beat up) and barely beat sad sack Ottawa, that it would be said we beat nobody of any significance, and that our record wasn't true indicator of how good we are, yet thats the Rider's season to date, and they are the heavily favored team and the sad sack media is calling them the elite team of the year???...makes u go hmmmm eh? Yet we are 3-1 with way more significant injuries, and played better teams

  31. Good work on this! Even more astounding, only 7 Riders have more than one Grey Cup ring with the team. 12 men have walked on the moon.

    The cfl media is soo click baity and desperate to pander to the riders fans it's pathetic. Tsn and cfl media is a major obstacle to growing the leagues reach in the younger demographic.

    No joke. They better not screw up ldc and bjb or our season after that with covid. We better be checking players claims too. No one should just be asking and go oh ok. I expect much better from us and around the league.

  50. While I'm glad Pallister isn't staying on as leader of the PCs. Am I the only one who thinks he's being a coward in stepping aside well before his term actually ends? Maybe I'm missing something but it feels like he's just quitting during a time when leadership (though he provided barely any) is actually very much needed. I donno..as far as I'm concerned this is another black mark on his record book. I don't applaud him on stepping down at all.
