  1. Justin "Click Bait" Dunk.
  2. This is how many fans would show up if the Bombers played the Stampeders in the US,,, It also shows you why 3 down football on an NFL sized field would never work. Why 4 down football with the smaller field is the only alternative. Right, Colin Unger? They can't add 5-8 yards to the width of the field like you suggested.
  3. Wasn't he in the first Alien movie?
  4. The Republicans are repugnant,
  5. He sold some tee shirts after the race riot in Charlotte. And the Colin Kaepernick banning. Took advantage of both situations which really turned me off of the guy. Especially when that BLM protestor was killed. He mocked the NFL saying our league was more diverse. Well, how's it worked for him since?
  6. I know. Yuck, yuck, yuck. I just shook my head at that comment.
  7. Anyone still think that Redbird Capital owners of the XFL approached the CFL??? I don't think so. This is why the CFL needs the XFL far more than the other way around. Check this deal out. RedBird Capital Acquiring Ten Percent of Fenway Sports Group for $750 Million (yahoo.com)
  8. What difference does it make if the CFL's been around "forever" if they have no money? Tradition means nothing. That's like saying an old homeless man is better than a young one because he was born earlier. If you're broke then you're broke. Young or old.
  9. Jesse Ventura got into it on air with one of the head coaches. He threatened to come down from the booth & beat him up. Remember He Hate Me?
  10. Sounds like a bunch of 5 year olds... "No, you're not! Yes, I am. No you're not! Yes, I am!! No you're not!!!! YES I AM!!!!!!!"
  11. Not impressed by Muamba or the Argos. Muamba is out for himself alone more than most players. He doesn't have the character to help build a winner & it's clear that money to him means more than championships. Which is the way Montreal is heading. Toronto is nothing but a scattered group of overpaid older free agents.
  12. I doubt if they will as well. I think capitalization will be from the Redbird Group.
  13. Uh, you need to capitalize the B.
  14. Life experience wise & credibility to older voters.
  15. We had a federal candidate running in our riding in South Calgary in the provincial election in 2015 who was from Toronto but never told anyone. The federal NDP parachuted her in as they couldn't find anyone here to run. It was hush, hush until it wasn't. But we live in a safe Conservative riding so she never would have been elected.
  16. Don't mind? What??? Of course people mind. We shrug because we have to pay it. Whether it's corporate profit or government taxes. We have to pay it. And it's not a small tax on gas. It affects the price of everything as these carbon tax increases are factored into the cost of goods & services.
  17. She went to Vegas in the middle of the campaign thinking she would lose.
  18. When the NDP had their surprise win in 2015 here in Alberta, they ran candidates in every riding. These candidates were low quality. Like 20 year old university students who never had jobs, activists & others. Very few high profile candidates because the party thought they would lose. But surprise, they won. Some of the winning candidates didn't even campaign. The voters just said no more PC's & threw them out. Most of these NDP candidates became lousy MLA's & left politics & never ran again in 2019 when the UCP won. Some of them were horrified they won as all they did was put their name on a piece of paper as an NDP candidate thinking they'd lose. Or they were voted out. It was certainly a reactionary vote.
  19. When the tax starts to climb & becomes a burden on people then let's see what happens.
  20. Plus the Ravens won a SB in the early 2000's & have a SB contending team now. Two, maybe 3 generations of Baltimore fans don't consider the Colts to be their team anymore as they left in 1984. They belong to Indy. Just like the Coyotes aren't Winnipeg's team anymore.
  21. Sure be dependent on foreign countries for oil just like we are for vaccines. Great public policy for Canada. Let two bit politicians in the US affect millions in Eastern Canada or hostile foreign governments. Has it? How so?
  22. That was nearly THIRTY years ago. Most of those fans are dead or seniors who wouldn't buy tickets anymore.
  23. I would not be against a carbon tax if it remained the same or was adjusted occasionally. Put the revenues towards green technology research. I have no problem with that but to have it continually rise to where it hurts Canadians is just wrong. We live in a country with vast distances between cities & where winter temperatures are routinely minus 25 to minus 35 for weeks at a time. Yet we will be severely penalized. People on fixed or low incomes will be hurt the most. Yeah, I get the move away from the internal combustion engine to electric vehicles but to me, what Trudeau is doing is just wrong.
  24. Energy East would have made our country oil independent. If Line 5 is shut down in Michigan starting in May there will be oil shortages in Ontario & Quebec. The world will not be less dependent on oil for another half century. You just watch the erosion of our social programs in the years to come thanks to Trudeau.
  25. Oh man, you live in Alberta. The Carbon Tax, then a secondary carbon tax on top of that, the tanker moratorium & making it economically unfeasible for Energy East. They funded the Trans Mountain pipeline but that'll be the last project. O & G accounts for 15-20% of the Canadian economy so in a recession the revenues are needed across the country to help fund social programs. The only other way to raise that kind of revenue are through higher taxes. So, the only vote not wasted is a Liberal vote? Okay, sure.
