Yes, the more both sides can polarize each side against each other, the more it keeps the American people focused on that enemy. And not how the elite and wealthy continue to enrich their own pockets at the cost of the average and poor.

There are a number of rules that all work hand in hand with the 3 downs. The field size, the clock in the CFL, the number of players. All of these things work together to balance out the game. If they are going to want to change any of those things, there better be a clear hypothesis as to why, then test it out in either exhibition or CIS before bringing it to the main game. Change like this for the sake of change will alienate existing fans and not likely bring in the flood of new fans they want.

Do they know how contagious it is when the only symptoms are gastro? Is it the same? Less?

The CFL has never tweaked their rules, right? https://cfldb.ca/rulebook/rule-changes/

It is still early, but there has been a number of studies that point to plastics (ultimately part of the oil economy) affecting male fertility. More and more data is coming out on this. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7967748/ Moving to EV's is a great start, but we still need to move our economy away from plastics. Some recent strides made in moving away from plastic straws and bags, but plastics are not good for the ecosystem at all.

Hypothetical question here. As more natural resources start becoming available in the arctic and Russia decides they want access to them and starts annexing parts of Canada, would you stand by and fall in line or would you fight for your way of life and country? Don't want to get into a debate on whether or not the US would ever allow that to happen, but trying to put yourself in the shoes of being a citizen of an invaded country.

Here is an article on what Stalin did to the Ukraine. https://www.history.com/news/ukrainian-famine-stalin Can see why the hatred runs deep with this kind of history.

Have removed the posts speculating about players personal lives. Thanks all for self moderating and pointing these out.

With the Jets spending to the cap these last few years since they've put this core together, curious where you see the difficulty for the Jets as a small market? Is it spending outside of player salaries? (ie. coaching, scouting, GM) Attracting free agents? Something else?

No thanks. Pass.
