  1. Black Children Were Jailed for a Crime That Doesn’t Exist. Almost Nothing Happened to the Adults in Charge. Judge Donna Scott Davenport oversees a juvenile justice system in Rutherford County, Tennessee, with a staggering history of jailing children. She said kids must face consequences, which rarely seem to apply to her or the other adults in charge. https://www.propublica.org/article/black-children-were-jailed-for-a-crime-that-doesnt-exist What a messed up system. For profit judges. Murica.
  2. Q: Did anyone do the tailgating at the Plaza at the Banjo Bowl? My son has asked to go tonight but I am not sure if they've brought back the activities for the kids, like the bouncy castle, etc. I might have to ask the Bombers directly.

    Funny story but NSFW (at all).
  4. Hmmmm.... What browser are you using? The eye should be left of the magnifying glass.
  5. Click the eye at the top right above the text box when you're writing a post. A Spoiler box will come and you can type in there.
  6. September 30th is orange shirt day and chosen to commemorate the legacy of residential schools. This is an important date in reconciliation and why it was chosen. We should rename Victoria Day and find someone (or something else) to commemorate on this day. But, May Long Weekend (May Two-Four in ON), as it's colloquially called, would never effectively get the attention that September 30th has.
  7. I disagree with this assessment of Bob's position. He knows the league is in trouble and spoke to it many times but he believes the problems are ours and the solutions must be ours.
  8. Who's "they"? And, maybe the founder of Manitoba should be on the flag? But, I would prefer not.
  9. My experience at Rider games has been first class. A few mouthy fans but who doesn't? Anyways, Elks are here. Let's send them packing like we sent those Oilers packing.
  10. More than a handful... but I agree, we need a new, more inclusive flag that celebrates the many cultures and traditions that make up Manitoba.
  11. Some good people from MBB go there, so it can't all be trash, right? Right?
  12. Until the summer ended on LDC. I don't mind the players having some attitude, they have a chance to back it up; however, the organization took out an ad (a billboard) mocking the 1-7 Riders. Not so classy. I don't mind the fans ribbing the opponents but the team shouldn't be trashing one another. Twitter jokes are fine, IMO.
  13. Yes, I should have been clearer. That poster is trash, not all of RF.
  14. They're just trash. EDIT: Adding for clarity, the poster is just trash. Not all of RF or Saskatchewan. I have family in Saskatchewan - they're trash but their neighbours aren't.
  15. For tomorrow night's game: Stamps at Riders. 6pm Central from IG Field (West).
  16. All BS. All about getting a new, publicly funded stadium. No way they split home games. They'll move wherever a stadium gets built for them. Horrible, horrible owners.

  21. Fine but the stadium was built for soccer. For TFC and the national team. A couple of weeks ago they didn't even scrub the paint off. MLSE is just embarrassing.
