  1. The burden of proof in a civil case still rests with the complainant. However the standard of proof needed goes from proof beyond a reasonable doubt to proof on the preponderance of evidence, so which side is more likely (sometimes described as 51%). On top of that, yes, there must be damage to the complainant as well.
  2. If she's asking for 85,000, doesn't she realize that's 50 years of gate receipts for the Argos? Seriously though, some of the comments here make me think that some of you have neither daughters, sisters or mothers. Yeah, women go public with complaints like this because they just love all the attention that it creates for them... Considering that by doing this, she's likely going to have almost zero chance of working in professional sports again (at least in the male side of things) I'd tend to think that rather than rushing to support Kelly or the team, a better response would be to demand that the team get to the bottom of this and if true, that several heads need to roll.
  3. That is an incredibly crass comment and like so many tropes, not at all accurate. Be better.
  4. As far as I can see, Lofton's being brought into battle with everyone else for the RT spot. Nothing more than that. I'm hoping they bring in someone better, but that's what training camp is for, right?
  5. As an aside, I'm a vet (Reserve) and I can tell you that no one is more brutal with slamming other units/branches than military people. And this is coming from someone affectionately (or not) known as a meathead.
  6. If I ever sell cars, I would really appreciate your contact info!
  7. When buying a car, do you walk into a dealership, and yell "I've got tons of money, who wants to take it?" or do you go in and say "I might buy a car if the price is right, but really, I'm just looking "? That's sort of what Walters is doing and has done over and over.
  8. Would you say that there's a crisis on the Oline?
  9. Can I suggest that the title for this discussion be changed to include Gerry's passing?
  10. Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine. Et lux perpetua luceat eis. Fidelium animae, per misericordiam Dei, requiescant in pace.
  11. OMG, Crisis in the linebacking corps! Hey, this sports writing stuff is easy!
  12. Any chance we could see that a few more times?
  13. I think that feeling sad is a perfect emotion to have if one is empathetic. Yoshi will now have to get up, look out his window and see a Regina sunrise. Think about that for a moment...
  14. Looks like the Elks signed another guy for the defensive line. Good luck Bede!
  15. Love the idea of a Marquee Player idea. No way that's going to cause any issues on a team at all. And it would be yet another bone the league could throw the Argos because they're they only team that could maintain a high end salary like that indefinitely. It would financially dry up a team like the Bombers over the course of a few seasons. I like the cap. Same rule, same problem for everyone.
  16. Bear in mind that all this salary cap stuff does not come into play until the end of the season. Walters will have time to adjust things and as long as he stays under the "100,000 over the cap" limit at the end of the year, we're going to be just fine.
  17. What, you don't think that having Fred Penner at an occasional game isn't a big deal?
  18. For the record, I'm mad at BO. It's one of the reasons I don't like going to Saskatchewan.
  19. ARE THERE NO PRISONS? ARE THERE NO WORKHOUSES? Ya, I see it too...
  20. Why is it that with some posters, when I read their diatribes it comes through in Abe Simpson's voice?
  21. WHAT???? That's news to me. Never seen that bit of info come up here before...
