I think the p.a. should have played the 'Lion Sleeps Tonight'...We put them to bed early...Bighill was a nightmare for Wally and Nichols looked great...with a little Streve thrown in...If this club ever gets consistent and with the talent now pretty much evident....hmmmmm..I won't plan a Cup route yet but man we sure looked good last night...Now comes one of the hardest things to accomplish...finish off the other team in a back to back...Off to the coast to give Wally another sleepless night....heh heh
Wally should have retired. I think it was more ego he came back.

Lulay has spent the majority of the last 3 years in rehab, much to my amazement he keeps coming back but I don't think he'll ever be near 100% again.
Right now Lulay is the most fragile qb in the CFL. He isn't capable of ever being a starter again with the condition his body is in from prior injuries. He is happy being number 2 & that in itself is sad as when completely healthy, he is ten times the qb Jennings will ever be. He has become satisfied with collecting a paycheque behind an inferior qb.

Didn't see the game. My son got married & I was busy. But I checked the score on my phone as the evening progressed. Amazing the confidence a veteran qb in Nichols brings to the Bombers. Streveler will be so much better with the experience he gained the first 3 games. Hopefully Nichols can go forward & keep playing well.

Okay, so my son is getting married later today. We're in Portland, Oregon & we just had a post wedding rehearsal party for our family & friends in our hotel room which has really turned into a hospitality room for everyone. I usually don't have a lot to drink anymore but I've had a few pops tonight. I'm not the partier I used to be but this evening I decided to let my hair down & just enjoy everything as a Dad. It was wonderful spending time with family & friends so far & I'm feeling pretty good right now.. LOL.
My son & his fiancée met at Junior College in California in 2011 & have been together in a long distance relationship while both have lived all over North America ever since. He was an NCAA D2 qb & she was an All American softball pitcher They were able to make it work while both have lived apart in South Carolina, Pittsburgh, Northern California, Calgary, Seattle, Victoria & Kelowna. Now, the are finally together & will be living in the Seattle area. My son will be coaching qbs privately while doing stone masonry work (when he is able to work) while his wife works in the sports industry as a marketing rep for a large American sporting goods company. So proud of both of them & ecstatic they have finally tied the knot after 7 years. As I've embided tonight I promise to be on my best behaviour. Life is pretty damned good right now.

On part of me wants the truck driver to burn for eternity in Hell for what he did with the tragic loss of so many lives & the devastation of some of the survivors. Then another part of me thinks the guy was put in a position due to lack of regulations & training where he caused a devastating accident with loss of life & injuries. When the driver got up that day he never meant to kill or hurt anyone. He is a victim as much as the hockey players & support staff on the bus were due to inferior regulations & driving inexperience. Just a sad, sad, sad situation.

15 years later? By those standards, anyone with anything like that in their past can’t be an MP.
At point I plan to vote Conservative next election. But don’t think Scheer is going to unseat Trudeau / the Liberals
Scheer has the personality of a slab of wallpaper. I plan on voting for him but the guy has no charisma. He's a younger version of Robert Stanfield. The Underwear King. I expect Trudeau will defeat him as well. But I will vote Conservative next election.

I'm beginning to worry about you. Are you really saying that because a QB in '70's wore a knee brace that Nichols is telling the complete unvarnished truth about his injury? That comparison is just as bad as comparing Brock to Streveler after his first game.
It's called sarcasm since you didn't like me comparing Streveler's very first game to Dieter Brock's very first game as a rookie. According to you that shouldn't be allowed as Brock went on to become a Canadian Football Hall Of Fame qb. As if that had anything to do with it. Nah, you thought Streveler should have been compared to Mike Reilly, a 6 year vteran as he put up big numbers yet Streveler didn't. That's what should have been compared. A raw rookie vs a CFL veteran.

As spleen-venter call-in guests go, this guy is a pretty good one. Coherent thinking shines through his rage.
He ain't wrong that's for sure. Chris Jones may be on shaky ground. Especially when it comes to the football ops & the salary cap imposed on it. Be interesting to see what happens going forward to the end of the season... Who gets fired or chopped come December. He may not be back if the Riders miss the playoffs.

So Tburg… Dieter Brock had a huge knee brace. I can mention Brock now, can't I? Or is it still unfair to compare Nichols little knee injury to Brock's big one as I know a knee injury on a great player like Brock is huge compared to a little knee injury on a so called unimportant journeyman qb as you think Nichols is. With greatness comes greatness in knee injuries.

you know seeing how idiotically the Isles fans are acting, I really do dread the day when Laine, Ehlers or Schief signs elsewhere
Well, aren't you a ray of sunshine on a rainy day. Why would you even post such nonsense? Why do you think the Jets are shedding contracts & didn't sign Stasny??
