But is she really owed $5,000,000 because of it?

Pretty sure I'm already paying them... I love the convenience and the general idea behind streaming services, but I hate the execution and how it's turned into just another version of cable.

2023/2024 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread (BRADY’S BACK! DALTON’S BACK!)
They finally got the Grey Cup rematch to kick off the season right... that's good to see.

2023/2024 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread (BRADY’S BACK! DALTON’S BACK!)
Like Walters said in his press conference, the goal when he became GM was to have the same kind of continuity and success that Calgary was seeing at the time. Huffnagel was coach with Dickensen in the wings... we have O'Shea as coach with Buck in the wings. Love the continuity that should keep us rolling to more successful seasons. At least Friesen is right once in a while... he can be obnoxious sometimes (alot of the time), but he's definitely not as bad as Ballsy.

So as a Rider fan, how do you feel about having him as the voice of your team?

That's the funniest part... goes to show how much of an "insider" he is when absolutely everything he posts is wrong.

Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros
You're kindof arguing your own point. Because of roster management, ie. not having the best possible guys out there or on the roster to rotate in, they weren't able to get the 2 and outs earlier in the game and were worn out by the end. The argument has always been that the roster management would cost us some games... as you point out in a later post, 5 out of 20 games sounds about right.

You grind out a win on defence by constantly forcing 2 and outs for the offence to come back on the field.

Crypto and NFTs are all just a scam. Do some people get rich with them, sure, because they are scamming gullible people into buying into them.

46 Players and executives go on the cup. Because Dayna Spiring was the chair of the board at the time, she got her name on there.

I believe the estimate to move the rail yards was in the billions... I'm not sure how many, but it would take a lot to make that move happen.

Upcoming Movies
Let's be honest... Hercules should never have been white in the first place, just like Jesus isn't white. Why is it a bad thing to allow representation in different forms. The people getting upset about characters being more diverse are the white people who feel that they are "losing power" and "being replaced". The complaint about anything being "woke" as a bad thing is absolutely ridiculous.

CFL Award Nominee Finalists
The reporters are able to vote for their own team players. The comment that DT made on WST about not getting to vote for the team award was about the initial round of voting where it was 4 members of the football reporters of Canada and the head coach in each market that puts players forward for consideration in each category.

I believe that Kelly won solely on his team's record... I would argue that they voted for him more as MVP rather than MOP, but I don't even think he was MVP on his team, I'd have given that to Leake for the great field position he provided for most of their games.

Yeah, that was confusing... in one sentence he said that Betts had a fantastic season, and the next he talked about how he played a great first game against Winnipeg and then disappeared in the other 3... How can you compare Betts who disappeared for 3+ games to Brady who was outstanding in every single game.

Not to be insensitive towards a guy who may or may not have suffered an injury... it feels like this is an excuse for his poor play. If nobody can figure out when he took a hit to the head that would cause a concussion, something just doesn't feel right about it.

Grey Cup - Game Week Thread
I think there is some positional factors that come into play. I don't think we will ever see Proulx as a line judge. He was the Backup Referee in the Montreal-Toronto game. The ratings are based on how they performed throughout the year, and it looks like Kroeker made less mistakes. Perhaps Vallesi was better as well, or maybe Proulx declined the job for some other reasons. Kroeker is from Saskatoon, so if there was going to be bias on his part, it wouldn't be for Winnipeg. That being said, both are professionals and call a good game no matter who is playing.

Agreed, I think Andre Proulx is the best in the league, but Kroeker isn't a a terrible second option.

Blue Bombers - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
I suspect that the only answer we would get is that they are focused on the Grey Cup and that they will sit down and talk once the season is over... pretty much the same as they did with O'Shea last year.

Grey Cup - Game Week Thread
Votes were submitted earlier this week so the decision has already been made. Technically, the playoffs aren't supposed to dictate the winners of the awards, but I think we were shown who the true MOP is in the division finals.
