  1. Article doesn't lead me to believe they are in debt with $7M in reserves. What they are saying is: They don't know how to restore the season ticket base They don't know how to restore the standing in the community Improve infrastructure Rather then sell, get rid of the board and bring in people who can fix points 1 and 2. Don't need to sell the club to do that. For point 3, I find it unlikely a private owner is going to invest a bunch of their own money in infrastructure.
  2. Who would even get the money when a non profit is sold privately? The article talks about how the club is in rough times financially, some due to the pandemic, some due to the record. Club success is cyclical and that should not be reason to sell the club. The other they give is they need a new stadium. If we've learned anything over the last 20 years, private owners aren't typically willing to put down a lot of their own capital to build stadiums / arenas. Like it or not, this inevitably comes from the tax payer. So why sell the club to a private owner to reap that potential benefit? Don't like this one bit.
  3. Same type of person who uses a VPN that makes it look like they are posting from India to hide who they really are. So, likely someone who has been previously banned.
  4. Here is a depressing thought for everyone watching these games from the 80s. Watching a 1984 game today in 2023 is like watching a 1945 game in 1984 . Yes, I feel old.
  5. And these days, if you are not a writer, put your bullet points down into ChatGPT and it will write the article for you.
  6. If that same play happened to Helle, I’d expect a power play out of it.
  7. https://www.cfl.ca/2024/02/27/riders-add-linebacker-diego-fagot/#:~:text=REGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders have,New England Patriots in 2023.
  8. Memories of clipping them to the spokes of bike tires to make it “sound” like you had a motorcycle.
  9. Now we do, but my jersey buying habits had to change years ago. Put it this way, I even have a Siddeeq Shabazz jersey in my closet I bought on a whim out to Regina for Labour Day one year. It sits right next to a game worn Marcellus Bowman jersey I bought at a locker room sale one year.
  10. I got tired of buying new jerseys too. My current jersey is a #6 with no name on the back. Why #6? An all time great Bomber and it happens to be my seat number, so it also helps me remember where I need to go
  11. Does anyone know if the vacancy rate of downtown has recovered since the pandemic? I know there has been a mix of companies that have gone completely back to in office and some that have stayed hybrid remote (which require less overall office space). Wondering if it is time to come up with a new vision of a downtown that isn't primarily focused on a 9 - 5 work crowd. The need for all those business to be focused in a small area seems to not be what it once was.
  12. Based on how active this thread is, quite a few people 😀
