Merry Christmas to all on MBB - y’all make life a tad more interesting.

Not to steer this off topic - but the same thing happened when people who’d been in the Chrétien camp turned on Paul Martin. It took a while, but eventually it cost the Liberals big time (2011). It’s also a pretty good indicator of how long it could take the Dems to get their house back in order.

Reminds me of the Stephen Glass story. There's movie about it 'Shattered Glass'

A dead thread that suddenly got revived and then escalated. Feel free to PM each other if you still have unresolved issues.

22 sacks for a linebacker - that’s a crazy stat

Ok - I’m surprised the CFLPA ever let that happen.

So - the ‘franchise tag’ was actually in the CBA at some point?

Indeed - food prices are on the rise. As long as ethanol continues to be produced, keeping grain prices artificially high, expect the overall trend to continue (Just an observation, not intended to take the thread off topic)

Has anyone else being following the Stella's story on social media? The level of denial from people claiming nothing happened, people who said the truth would come out, people who said they knew the owners - has been incredible Now - crickets

Think of the reindeer!

When something happens that favours their opinion, they’re back like novacaine at the dentist. But when it’s the opposite - crickets. Sorry, but sometimes a spade is a spade.

‘08 should have certainly clarified things for you.

Fair comment - it almost worked for us in '07

As the better all around player of the two (Thread derailment not intended)

With some of the Canadian OL/DL this team has had, I’d say the ratio will take care of itself. Not to mention Andrew Harris in the backfield.

I know at least person who believes that...

Ok, what was their take on Brendan Taman? Joe Mack?

We can handle reality just fine. The problem is the additional spin and speculation - to milk out as much negativity as possible.

I will assume you missed the ‘S’ on purpose...

One word: drugs

Schools in the division I work for were closed yesterday, as I’m sure you all heard. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4929820 But we’re open again today.

Physical and mental are not mutually exclusive occurrences.

Can a company book oil on a futures contract - the way you can with grain?

That method worked out pretty well for Mark Stobbe.

But I do think Franklin, Wilder, Greene & Co. would have a reasonable chance at success with Lapo at the helm.
