  1. He has laundered their money for years.
  2. No responsibility for anything they say or do. That is today's "right". Barf.
  3. It's a long but interesting read but I highly recommend this biography, if you're interested in the Jim Henson story.
  4. If the the third bye week provides measurably greater safety for players, I am all for it. A 10th team, to me, would even out the schedule and provide fewer weeks where teams play twice or on a Tuesday. We could go back to a predictable schedule of two games on Friday night and two on Saturday night. You would need to have a third on Saturday or Thursday night, when all ten teams played. I wonder if the Schooners would have been a go, if not for Covid? I thought the momentum died for it before the pandemic?
  5. 24th was the last Sunday in November, in 2019. We're up one week to the second last. They could move training camp up two more weeks and also move the GC up the same.
  6. First preseason game is May 23rd this year. They have moved up the schedule. They've also added an extra week. And, we play in the GC in Regina on November 20th, this year. That's moved up one week, so far.
  7. The pearls that were clutched (including my own) when they made the changes to the extra inning rules was huge. There was a lot of fighting about that one.
  8. I don't have a fundamental problem with changing the length of the field from 110 to 100 yards. A change in the width of the field would play a more significant role changing the game, IMO. The width could impact each play, where as the length would only impact the game on a more macro level. Possibly allowing more scoring? This may reduce the number of plays before scoring.
  9. He did bring up the change to 100 yards earlier. It was the first time in recent memory that I had heard the proposal. He defended it that it would allow for more scoring. I guess it would?
  10. Farhan goes onto explain himself a bit. I haven't seen much pushback against 100 yard fields but I didn't think that they were really considering that. Instinctively, I am against the change but it probably wouldn't hurt the league. I like the rouge, so I am not in favour of eliminating it. But, what is the impact on the game, if they did remove it? How much does the strategy change?
  11. I have not seen a single "traditional" CFL fan complain about the proposed changes to the hash marks? Anyone else?
  12. Farhan is at it again. Now it's the CFL fans' fault.
  13. It's probably harder than one would think. You need to deliver a certain amount of the poison, which cannot be easy. In Navalny's case, if he hadn't received urgent medical treatment, he would have died. I'm not ruling out Russian incompetence, it's just that getting enough poison into someone to kill them, would be challenging. Especially if their target is leery of such an attack.

    I was at The Forks last night. My son and I were definitely outliers wearing our masks. Forks staff were but very, very few other patrons were.
  16. GOP are just a bunch racist trash. No wonder the CPC idolize them.
  17. Imagine knowing that your base are bunch whackjobs. Today's conservative.
