  1. Nothing makes sense with the mixed messaging. In Edmonton, the AB govt declared an emergency so they came down with these new health edicts. Weddings & funerals to be reduced to no more than 15 people immediately but we (provincial govt) understand this is short notice so just carry on. Meanwhile movie theatres & bars can stay open with no reduction of capacity. Masks must be worn indoors in all public spaces so at people at work have to wear masks. But it's totally voluntary. Meanwhile schools remain open even as the number of infected schools keep rising. Currently, Alberta has over 900 beds for Covid patients. We're at 62. If things are as dire as our Chief Medical Officer is saying then shut everything down. Nope, won't do that.
  2. We all know that Trump won't lose any sleep if Christie dies. After Herman Cain passed way in July, Trump is on record as saying his rallies outside never caused any problems with Covid 19. So, the man is a lying, miserable son of a *****. And all these hangers on like McConnell, Hannity, McElhenny, Cruz, Rubio, etc are the real losers here.
  3. I'm watching the mini series on Crave The Jim Comey Rule. The actor who plays Trump has him nailed. What a wretched human being.
  4. Well, I don't have to worry about paranoid lefties like you when I do work. Tell me, when you are in your bed lying awake in the dark at 3 am do you worry that boogey man Harper is lying under your bed & gonna get you?
  5. Stealing: Spending our tax dollars & wild spending with no let up in sight. No plan to balance the budget. Cheating: Lying & cheating go hand in hand. If you're gonna lie. You're gonna cheat.
  6. Harper, Harper, Harper. LOL. Blah, blah, blah. Get over it. Trudeau lies, steals & cheats constantly. Ethics & Trudeau in the same sentence is an oxymoron. The worst PM in Canadian history.
  7. Politicians alll lie. A debate is just that, a debate. I just think Pence would appeal to a lot of disaffected voters. He's still a better candidate than Trump. Don't like these merged comments. Rich, can you get rid of that function?
  8. To me, the wrong guy is running for a second term as President. As a Presidential candidate, Mike Pence would probably have garnered more of the undecided Republican voters & more conservative Democratic voters who don't like the direction their party is going rather than the abomination running for President now. The Republicans had a chance to dump Trump but now for them it's too late.
  9. We didn't even have T hanksgiving Day games last year. I remember the outcry from fans,
  10. Bill O'Brien fired by the Texans which was long overdue. They apparently have the highest payroll in the NFL & getting the least in performance from their players. Especially Deshaun Watson who is the second highest paid qb in the NFL only behind Patrick Mahomes. He signed a 4 year $111 million dollar contract of which $74 million is guaranteed. Just crazy money for a kid who has never won anything in the NFL. The Texans are 0-4 & going nowhere. Former Cleveland Browns HC & longtime NFL assistant Romeo Crennell takes over as Interim HC. Not much of an improvement there from O'Brien. Therer's a big mess to be cleaned up in Houston.
  11. Well, that's the way it is. It's to help bad teams get better.
  12. Rest In Peace Eddie Van Halen. A huge hit for Johnny Nash in 1972.
  13. I don't know what you mean.
  14. No CANADIANS don't. You have mixed messages everywhere. From all levels of government & from all parties in power in different provinces. Read what rebusrankin said before you try to do stand up comedy here.
  15. Which is why a segment of Canadians are resistant to rules like masks or non compliant. Thye mixed messaging by government everywhere in this country. Canadians don't trust what they are being told.
  16. Mark, do you realize that if we don't change the way we're doing things that in a year from now there is a good chance that high percentage of airlines will be out of business? Transportation & tourism will be devastated. It'll be the same in other industries across the board & that we'll be in a full blown depression similar to or worse than the Great Depression of the 1930's. These quarantine measures just can't continue the way they are now for any economic recovery. The job losses worldwide will be staggering. Temporarily yes, they were necessary but as time goes on they will become unsustainable. We have to rely on science to help with the changes. The way Covid 19 is treated in hospital from March until today has changed because we know more about the virus than we did then. Mortality rates appeared to have dropped. Less people in hospital & ICU. When tens of millions around the world are suffering because they are unemployed, is it any worse than getting sick with Covid? No jobs, wars, mental anguish, homelessness, marriages & the family unit breaks down, increased violent crime. suicide & poverty. I don't know if being sick with the virus will ultimately be worse. We will have to open up totally at some point & that includes borders for travel even if the virus is present.
  17. I agree. Just curious, what do you think about airports doing rapid testing? If a passenger arriving off an international flight into Canada tests negative after a rapid Covid test should they be good to go without having to quarantine? I think they should
  18. Alex Singleton with the game winning Pick 6 for the Eagles tonite. Nice to see the former Stamps player doing well. Too bad it was against the 49ers but whatever I guess.
  19. One of my favourite players in another era was Stampeders QB Peter Liske. I believe he threw for over 4,000 yards each in 1967 & 68. He could really sling it. Went on to play in Philadelphia during the 69 season & later Denver of the NFL before returning to the Stamps in 1973.
  20. Players & coaches have to take it seriously. Coaches like Jon Gruden pulling their masks down constantly or Andy Reid using a face shield without a mask has to stop. Are players finding ways to sneak into bars after hours? Until everyone buys into the protocols this won't stop.
  21. That's actually pretty close. Lol.
  22. Most people on social media will say that they pray for Trump to recover. We know that a lot of these same people saying that really hopes he gets seriously ill or dies. Personally myself, I hope he does recover so he knows that this virus isn't fake or a hoax. Maybe he'll decide to take Covid more seriously as far as trying to eradicate it in the US. Somehow, I doubt it but we can hope.
  23. Thursday Night football for the most part are terrible games. I gave this game a pass.
