If the Cup game is anything like this I'm gonna have to invest in my own set of defibrillators and a blood pressure cuff. Thrilled for the win but I fear it has come at the expense of my hound's mental health. I think she developed a nervous disorder today between my cursing and screaming. Whew...... Nana na na...nana na na...hey hey hey...goodbye!

Poor you. So hard done by thru no fault of your own. Here's your posting style in video form

Depends if they can find babysitters for the kids

Just happened to me today. A new guy in the kitchen at the care home my dad's in stopped me and asked if I was the guy that used to work at such and such radio station. Haven't worked in radio for over a decade. Was a good reminder to always behave myself in public in case someone recognizes me 😆 🎤

Make me... This entire thread has nothing to do with the Bombers.

Anyone else looking forward to the new ST TNG spin-off series "Picard" coming up?

As Chevy said, he's already here and not even 20 comments in and he's already taking shots at the members. Hopefully he has his big boy pants on cuz whining and hitting the report button because someone dared to disagree with him or point out his childish BS isn't going to work here.

I distinctly remember the Monday call in show after the Montreal loss and Osh saying how the team came in at the half all pumped up to bury the Als in the second half and he basically told them to calm down and come out as if it was scoreless. They were feeding on their dominance and he threw cold water on them. He wondered if maybe it was the wrong thing to do. I tend to think it was. If the guys are pumped and flying...let 'em go.

An empty pot rings the loudest.

So LaPo was "Mickey" to the offence's "Rocky" in beating the Stamp's "Apollo" by fighting righty and then switching to south-paw?

Ahhhh...Johnny Fontane. "Oh, Godfather, I don't know what to do..." "You can act like a man! What's the matter with you? Is this how you've turned out? A Hollywood finocchio who cries like a woman?"

Meh. If they win the cockiness was justified. If they lose then at least you got to feel cocky for a week before feeling like crap. Savour the moment.

Change the name in your comment from Collaros to Nichols and I know the words to that song by heart. "Nichols" and "quick release" are not exactly synonymous from where I sit. Although, considering I've seen it with all 3 of our QBs I'm left wondering how much of that is the fault of our OC.

Don't laugh. If Rod Black peruses this board he'll be using this as filler during our next game with him.

Just watched this one again and the league should be ashamed of the job the officials did. From the no call on the JGrant horse-collar to the BS call on the Maston hit to the non-UR on Lawler on his TD catch (no need to smoke him when he's down in the EZ with possession) to two non-URs on Zach this game was an officiating embarrassment. I used to like Cuthbert but the way he meekly defers to whatever Suitor says has left an awful sour taste in my mouth. And how all four panelists and two announcers were cool with that hit on Collaros is so mind-boggling I can barely process it. That crap really burns my biscuits.

Can honestly say I've never been grateful for figure skating...til this very moment

It's not just about what they did. It's also about what they were expected to do...what they could have done if they didn't totally crap the bed a few times. I don't want to see respectable/competitive seasons/teams anymore. I want fn domination. I want a coach that coaches to always hit hard...always play to run up the score...NEVER back off with a lead. Dominate...intimidate. Given the players on the roster this year and the maturity of the staff they were expected to be the team I just described. Instead they turned a home run into a double. They've had their shot.

Did anyone mention or notice that there was a "Black out" for the entire weekend slate of games? It was like Christmas came early.

That should have been an easy penalty The defender was aimed at him...low. Had he been lining him up and in the act of trying to hit him while still standing he would have gone over his head. He aimed at him while he was already sliding. That's why he hit him so flush. That the command centre or the refs would not recognize that fact is inexcusable.

Same thing could be said for Adams. He made some horrible decisions on the weekend and has 2 extra years in the league under his belt.

Easy to be a powerhouse when you're beating up on the weak kids. Can't overstate the lesser quality of most of the teams we played in the first half of the season.

Don't know what's going on with him but I have not been even slightly impressed with his effort the last couple/few weeks, especially. If effort was the determining factor for the #1 receiver then I'd give it to Lawler right now.

The only reason I can think of is if they snag someone like Arbuckle...otherwise I would much prefer Strev with all his potential than a Nichols in the twilight of his career. My concern is if Nichols says he's good to go the loyalty factor may rear it's head with MOS relegating Strev to back-up for another year at least. And if that is the thought process he may test the market in the off season now that he's had a taste of the starting role. Then again if he helps lead us to a Cup appearance/win then the decision may be much easier for the team. Time will tell but it should be quite interesting how things play out.

Speaking only for myself... I don't "expect" him to be making better decisions. I think he's pretty much where I'd expect him to be given his age, experience and limited pro reps. My comment was strictly in reference to his desirability around the league as a starter next season. Like the steak I cooked last night...he needs a little more time on the grill to be well done...but I think he'll get there.
