  1. When he has a bad game & is benched for Evans we'll see how how handles it.
  2. Kenney is fist waving but the reality is we can't just go cold turkey off of oil.
  3. Transistion to what? Everything you use is because of petroleum. I didn't say we shouldn't transition. But it will take decades.
  4. Trudeau's climate policies are insane in a pandemic when we have to get the country rolling again. Oil & Gas still is one of the biggest contributors to our GNP providing thousands of jobs across canada not only in the Resource sector but ancilliary industries like manufacturing in Ontario. . We will be reliant on oil for the next 3 or 4 decades at the very least. We aren't ready for an oil free economy. Part of me hopes the Michigan Governor shuts down Enbridge Line 5 which sends Alberta oil to Ontario thru Michigan. That'll get Ontario's attention. This is supposed to happen in May.
  5. Masoli & his agent are nuts. He could have gone & been the man for another CFL team with more $$$ thrown in. Instead he took a Hometown Discount to be looking over his shoulder at Dane Evans chomping at the bit to play. Having 2 qbs like this is a luxury in the CFL because at some point there will be in juries & the Cats will be locked in with 2 expensive qbs to pay (CFL standards). Waitng another couple of weeks for offers to come in wouldn't have been a bad idea. O|ne or both of those guys will be unhappy at some point this season.
  6. So, a coach can leave when he wants but a player can't. He got paid to do zip with Edmonton. The Colts should be paying Edmonton compensation.
  7. Then these clauses need to be removed. No other league gets shitted on like our does by the NFL & our Commissioner & BOG's let it happen. Brock Sunderland's cum by ya comment that Milanovich is still his friend must sound so good to Eskimo season ticket holders. Coaches can come & go as they please while under contract but players can't. Huff wouldn't release Holley the Stamps all star line backer or their corner as they were under contract. Finally after months they relented yet anyone in management can just **** off if they want to go to the NFL.
  8. Ellingson is probably the more realistic choice of the 2 from a money perspective. .
  9. Nothing like a hundred million dollars to change one's mind. I don't think they have anyone ready to take over behind Rodgers. They have a 4 year NQRFPT hot shot who may have taken 50 snaps in that time.
  10. Anyone watching that game could see there was way more than 7700 or 8500, whatever the "announced" figure it was. Crazy the packers could get away with what they did by packing nearly half the stadium. But at the same time, I don't know what the Covid restrictions are for outdoor events in Wisconsin. I would think that the team violated State health laws.
  11. While I'm 65 & could retire now I plan to continue working while investing my CPP & OAS until I'm 71.
  12. I actually had a disagreement with a Packer fan on twitter who insisted that there were only 8,500 fans at Lambeau Field. I said it was more like 28,500 & he kept insisting it wasn't.
  13. So, after paying Milanovich to sit around & do nothing for a year he leaves. He got paid & didn't earn a penny. Especially during this pandemic when other coaches lost their jobs instead. I'd like to see the CFL take a stand with coaches that have itchy feet by taking them to court to get the team's money back that they paid out to anyone who does something like this. Milanovich & the Colts may have thought twice about doing this if they knew they might be held financially liable.
  14. I remember after a Bomber game on a Saturday night in either 1984 or 85, I had season tickets for the Bombers & took a friend. We went to the Bomber game & then afterwards to the Marble Club. The Bombers were the winners that night & they were partying with the team they played a few hours earlier.
  15. THAT I agree with. Cam Newton is on the fast track to becoming an NFL backup.
  16. Never can have enough Hoggies.
  17. He was a piece of work. That was a helluva moment breaking the Bambino's HR record. I happened to see it on tv. Not a lot of sports were shown on sportscasts back then. Freak
  18. If all the single players are going to do is play video games then what does it matter where they live?
  19. "Disability" great description. I have a feeling McConnell will find his 17.
  20. Or the throw to Darvin Adams back of the end zone vs Calgary. That would have been a sack. That was the official start of our GC run. When we all started to believe. The players too. Might have been the season's most important play establishing Zach Collaros.
  21. Back in my 20's & 30's the nightlife in Wpg was pretty damned good. A lot of upscale bars downtown & down to Earth pubs in the suburbs. Usually the women situation was pretty good wherever I went. The Bombers, Jets & out of town football & hockey teams "owned" the Marble Club & partied there so lots of ladies. Can I even say that now without offending?
  22. OLB & DE can't pinch in or he'll kill them with that reverse bucket step to the right. He made a lot of plays doing that & defenses should have taken that away after half a season. Getting **** canned a few times doing that would stop him from doing that so much.
  23. Guys will always sign here. It's the guys we lose that we don't replace that is the real issue. So, they move Stasny to wing? Put Dubois on the second line. Just saying Wheeler has a huge say with what goes on with this team, it seems. Maybe too much influence on a certain coach. I'm pissed off but I'll be okay in a day or so....
