If only they'd give out cowbells. I have a tiny team-branded cowbell... just beat to hell at this point, but it makes all the noise I need and I can still hold my beer (or leave my gloves on as the situation dictates)
But they'll never give them out when they sell for over $20 a piece... how many procedure calls could $600,000ish buy I wonder
Go to Princess Auto. Not sure if they still have, but I bought a real cowbell from there for like $15 a few years ago, loud AF. Little old lady in front of me tried to grab it away from me first game of the year, and i haven't seen her since.

The only hope (albeit a slim one) for American democracy is for some really stiff sentences to be doled out to the conspirators. The problem with even that is that the next GOP president is likely to pardon them all. Offences such as treason should not be commutable as they strike at the heart of democratic government. No wonder more and more Americans have become cynical about their system of government.
I honestly don't think that works. They've already painted themselves as martyrs. The far right would rally around the persecution of their anointed leaders. I think that's the big reason why no one is being held accountable - the repercussions from the uneducated blind followers.
As I've said before- I don't know how the US recovers without the whole thing blowing up into civil war or slipping into a form of dictatorship. True democracy is dead there.

I know all these changes make sense, and I know it is a good thing to see how our back-ups can do (especially McGuire who could use some substantial reps), but it still eats away at me a bit that we are taking our foot off the gas here and running a “pre-season” game of sorts. I guess it is flashbacks of 2001 and how badly that approach backfired that year. Anyone else feel that way?
... and I get flashbacks to 2007. Get the back up some meaningful reps. With the cap the way it is, and the fact you can only "hide" so many players, it is going to be limited who sits.

Monstrosity Burger? Again?
MORFIT recently closed with this statement "The MORFIT gyms have closed. We have fought for our right to operate a business and for your right to maintain autonomy over your own health. We knew by holding this position publicly that we it would just be a matter of time before we would be shut down."
Did MORFIT close or just change their name? Idiots!

Per elksherd.ca. Not sure if that's true though. But for a team where the GM is unvaxxed, I wont be surprised.
There was some chatter on other sites as well. Pointed to him wearing a mask on sidelines as is required for unvaxxed.

Newsflash:
Players play with broken bones all the time. If there is minimal risk to further injury it is not an issue. If taped and supported there was really not much risk for Whitehead to do further injury. It was stupid by the LIons to trot out a one handed receiver but he is far from the first guy that's ever played with a broken bone.
I'm with others on this one;
- Hands are kind of important to receivers, he wasn't even using it when testing it.
- Not sure how you tape or support those broken bones where they were.
- they never even looked his way after anyways. You don't have anyone else to put out there?
- medical staff should have stepped in the name of safety. I get the player doing whatever they can, but at some point cooler, more educated heads need to step in, just like they do with concussions

Couldn't help but laugh at some of the prediction comments;
HODGE: When do tickets for the West Final go on sale? BOMBERS
ABBOTT: Winnipeg is the best team in the league and Edmonton is a flaming manure truck careening towards a canyon. BOMBERS
BALLANTINE: You know it’s a bad week in Edmonton when getting blown out by Winnipeg is the third worst L of the week. BOMBERS
GASSON: Edmonton is bad. Real bad. Winnipeg is the opposite. BOMBERS
LUDWIG: I badly wanted to do it, but ultimately the only way you pick Edmonton is if you’re angling for a job with 630 CHED. BOMBER
MCGUIRE: Losing Kenny Lawler hurts, but not enough to fall short at home to this dumpster fire. BOMBERS
SMITH: It has been a bad week in Edmonton and it’s going to get worse when they get molly-whopped by Winnipeg. BOMBER

Covidiot of the week- the owner of my former gym. As you may have seen on the news, the owner has been adamant they will not ask for vaccination status, which is why I left for my own safety and health. From an email since I still get them (BTW- I understand he also owns White Lion which is hilarious/stupid/ignorant if so);
We knew from early September that not following the public health orders would likely mean we would eventually be shut down. We received a call from Manitoba Health this week stating they would shut our business down if we did not start enforcing the public health orders. This is after receiving several fines which we always intended on fighting. However, we are faced with closure before we can get to the courts. So we must adapt to the situation.
St. Boniface transition to White Lion AthleticsThe St. Boniface gym is going to be taken over by another business, White Lion Athletics. You may recognize that name as it is the fitness equipment that we currently sell at the St. Boniface location. Here is how the transition will proceed:
- MORFIT is officially closing it’s St. Boniface location as of 10pm Thursday, October 7th. Only massage, private training and White Lion Athletics retail will continue uninterrupted.
- On Tuesday, October 12th, the gym will reopen following the public health orders under White Lion Athletics. Please note that QR codes will be required.
- All currently active MORFIT memberships will be honored by White Lion Athletics. If you still have an active membership, you can continue to use it. As of Tuesday, any new memberships will be purchased through White Lion Athletics.
- White Lion Athletics will be offering FREE online training for anyone that is no longer able to attend the gym. Details on this and other training services will be made available once their new training facility and service website launches next week.
MORFIT Downtown
The downtown gym will continue to operate as usual, under MORFIT, for the time being.
We have stood strong and will continue to do so in the capacity that we can. The loss of a business is a small compromise against what we are facing. I’m glad that all of our members were able to workout with us over the past month. I encourage those of you that cannot continue with us to find other ways to stay strong through all of this. There are other gyms out there that will likely accommodate you, or check out the services that White Lion Athletics will be offering.

As much as Democratic leaders and half of Americans hate Trump what they really fear and panic over is Bernie Sanders. When he was making a real push to lead the Democrats big money came in to squash that.And that's on the Democratic Party. They set the stage for Trump. Lifetimes of fear mongering of socialist ideas (that the rest if the world has adopted as standard practice and human decency ) have brainwashed Americans. Alot of it is not accidental.
Watched Fahrenheit 11/9 last night as I felt up to diving into that for some reason. Going in I thought it would be a slam on Trump, but I came away with a much better understanding of the role the Dems played in creating the cesspool. From the dirty politics behind the scenes, "compromising", screwing Sanders for Clinton, unaccepting of AOC and her like, creating apathy among voters, and being just as betrothed to big $$$, if not more.

And as a vaccinated person here in MB life is pretty much normal at this point.
That was going to be my response as well. As a fully vaxxed person with season tickets and who enjoys eating in restaurants, actually feels like normal and not onerous, that's for sure. The only pain has been my decision to leave my gym that has committed to not checking vax status. (MORFit)

I apparently don’t know how to put the YouTube clip in here, so maybe someone can help me out.
