Total party atmosphere there. The crowd was great.

1. Andrew Harris literally put the city on his back today
2. Oline played a perfect game
3. J an J
HH Kenny Lawler that catch was 🔥🔥🔥
 

Interesting that Harris is listed as “Guaranteed To Dominate”… seems a little arrogant but I can’t really disagree!

However we can just look at Collaros in Saskatchewan and see that it's not just having the qb. You gotta put the guy in a situation to succeed and I feel that Pierce has done that very well for Collaros. He still has some growing to do as an offensive coordinator but as far as year one goes I would call it a big success. 

So ........I wonder if he thinks people from Winkler should stay out of the ICUs in the province. Because I don't think Boundry Trails has one. I know dozens of people ( including myself ) who no longer do business in Winkler. We use other towns and cities including Winnipeg. 
One of the things I have noticed in Winnipeg is things have pretty much returned to normal. You wear your mask,  distance when you can and flash your vax passport when asked.  No big deal. It's as close to normal as could be expected. 
 

If it's the guy from the Arkells who they had in the booth the other day, I don't mind it.  He is a fan of the game and understands it.  He knew when to stop talking and is knowledgeable enough that if the guys in the booth do ask him to do a play call, he could probably pull it off.

I'm  not sure we can do total shutdowns anymore. I suspect we are looking at years of this. I dont think our society can handle it economically or socially.  But, broadening of vaccine passport requirements ? Yes !  More enforcement ? Yes, especially in areas that we know aren't compliant.  And bring a big hammer when you do it. No tickets since October in Southern is ridiculous.

Well, the way the senior broadcaster retirements are going this year, they need new talent in the booth. Maybe they are auditioning their guests?

Haha can you imagine... they bring in the dude from the Arkells to do guest playcalls.. while Bob twiddles his thumbs in the corner.

I’d say avoid a lockdown, but make vax cards mandatory for entry into any place, be it a grocery store, theatre, restaurant, inside of a gas station. Of you don’t want the responsibility of vaccinating to protect others, you lose the privilege (it’s not a right) to attend certain places. New Zealand enforced this and when asked if she was creating different rules for those who did not comply with the vaccination demands versus those who did, the PM matter-of-factor said “yes, that’s exactly what I am doing” with zero apologizing. As it should be. 

If you watched any CFL games this year, you know that Maier was their only chance of going to the Cup. I personally believe BLM wouldn't allow it, even if Dickie did want to make the change. 

Blue-Flu. 

Couldn't have said it better myself... This is exactly my feelings (except my daughter is 2 and has never been to a game)...
I was pacing with the Bombers up 20 with 3 mins left in the Grey Cup... I can't relax until the clock is at zero... However, I'm always way more relaxed (while still cheering wildly) when I'm at the stadium... enjoying the game with 30,000 of my closest friends always makes me feel better!  

Just got 3 more tickets to the game on top of my two season tickets. Whole family coming out for the first time together to enjoy the West Final. Then off to the Jets game for the daily double!
Pack the park!!!!!!   

You know who brings the most to the run game? 

Lopsided beatdowns are not as exciting on TV, but being there in person it's usually a party in the stands. I could get behind a good 52-0 drubbing of the Riders

The disturbingly high number of human garbage piles on this planet fueled by willful ignorance and abject stupidity is just exhausting anymore.

The big difference between us and them is that our players hold themselves to the highest standard, and so does our organization. When a player slips up, like Lawler did, we lower the boom and show them the behavior is unacceptable. In Regina guys refuse pee tests, are rude to CFL officials and Earl's waitresses, and just generally act like asshats on and off the field while their HC plays 3 blind mice at the whole thing. They will never build a winning culture without accountability to themselves, their team mates, and the community. To be a winner you have to act like a winner in everything you do. There is nothing about their culture and the way they behave on and off the field that says winner to me.
Is Purifoy's actions suspension worthy...I'm not sure...but man if I was a Rider fan I would sure be worried about the lack of discipline and class that permeates through that locker room. It just reeks of poor leadership, coaching, and accountability at the organizational level.

They haven't scored a TD against us in 2 years. 

The last two games of the year left a sour taste in my mouth.  I hope they come out on Sunday and set the tone right away. Don't let that Saskatchewan team off the mat.
Play smart physical football on both sides of the ball - punch them in the mouth (over and over again).
Let them know they have no business being in the same building with us.

What business am I boycotting? Also she is not even putting money in our team's pockets.
Also have you looked at legally distancing yourself from your Mom? 

that's 100% my focus. We need to break down the walls....especially men. Not to drive this thread too far off the rails, but my lowest point resulted in suicidal thoughts so clear that I ended up in the psych ward of a hospital for a week. They got my meds and my mind straighter and I've been on a much better path for about a year and a half now. If I don't learn from that, and use it to help others, than it's all a complete waste. So we all have to talk about it as openly as we can. 
Alright, back to "**** the Riders"!!

Count my kids in those first dose numbers. Moved them up from next week and got them in at Sobey's yesterday. 1 down, 1 to go! Plus I will probably get my booster after the New Year.
