Nope, still an embarrassment to the league.

Will Streveler Be Our James Franklin?

He was another of those guys with a big arm that everyone fawns over right? -
The reason they didn't have room for Simon was because Arland Bruce stepped up, hardly the big faux pas it was made to seem. They were never going to drop Gordon for Simon. No way no how. Ultra reliable vet who was Khari Jones security blankey or promising young player when you already have one of those already...
-
Love that the Riders are spending so much on Jones and it's getting them nothing but embarrassment.

Oh well I choose to look at the positive in this. With a Star Wars movie losing money perhaps they'll actually put some effort into the future ones rather than assuming people will flock to see whatever crap they put the logo on.

Like a godsend.

The problem with Solo was that no one asked for it. Han Solo had his arc in the original movies already. There really was no story to tell for him. Then you throw in the fact that you can't just re-cast someone into a role that Harrison Ford made. Just not going to fly with the public. Then you add in shitty marketing and some inexplicable decision to put it right next to Infinity War and Deadpool 2, a couple movies pretty much guaranteed to rake in big money, throw in people legit hating The Last Jedi, yeah it's no wonder Solo flopped.

the only people who can look at Trump and not hate him and what he stands for are people who are in no way shape or form impartial. If any other president did the **** this guy is doing there would be rioting in the streets. Can you imagine if Obama had had said even half the **** Trump as said?

all canadian simply refers to all star selections.

I'd say Rosanne is probably just mentally unwell more than anything.
-
He gets into the Bomber hall of fame if only for catching a first down pass and getting knocked the **** out but still holding onto the ball. His best wasn't very long here but the guy was such a key part of what they did in the early 2000s and let's be honest if not for that short period of time we'd all likely have killed ourselves the team was so depressing otherwise.
-
Trump isn't a racist, he's a narcissist, so the only thing that enters his mind is "is this good for me?" race doesn't even come into play at all. He just happens to be surrounded by the racist party.
-
I don't think Jones stops to consider the ratio at all when they do anything in that city.

-
Innocent people don't even talk about being able to pardon themselves. What that shows me is that Trump knows he's rapidly heading up the creek and has suddenly realized he's got no paddle, so now you see the shift to "doesn't matter, I AM ABOVE THE LAW!" I just hope they throw his fat ass in jail as an example to the rest of the corrupt political system in the states. It's rotten to the core and making an example of the guy would hopefully give them pause to think before they keep trying to **** everyone over in their race to the bottom.

You mean there's more to the CFL than Duron Carter and Johnny Manziel? Blasphemy! -

But his arm is soooooooo strong! That's all it takes to be a qb! -
Yes I have long thought that if the country is really serious about lessening the carbon dioxide emissions we should transition away from the really centralized power grid. Put solar panels on every roof and let buildings generate as much of their own power as they can, then you don't need big coal or gas fired power stations.
-
People need to stop thinking of wind or solar like they do the big power plants. They are smaller scale and should be seen as such. You won't build a wind farm and power entire provinces, but you can build some and generate some power so that you lessen the burden on other sources of energy.

generally the guys who get shafted are when a regime change happens. Other than that there really haven't been a lot of guys been shafted at all because not many of them have shown a hell of a lot to start with. -

If they weren't going to give him a serious chance do you think they would have split the reps between he and Ross like they did? If he wasn't in serious contention for the spot he'd have got some token minutes at the very end of the game like Edmonton did with their 3rd qb. -
Game Day: Edmonton @ Winnipeg (Pre-Season) June 1, 2018
17to85 replied to Rich's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
So we're going from lots of chances to here's 5 chances, except that one of them you will see is a game the Bombers won by 6 points, even if Nichols is struggling you put a back up in you risk more because even when Nichols was off he was still avoiding turn overs. Then the other game is one where the backups did actually play, so really you've got maybe 3 games, and even one of those 3 was a 20 point win and as discussed things change quickly in the CFL. Leads can evaporate in a hurry. As I said, this team didn't do anything easily. -

were there really a lot of chances? Remember this is the CFL, 20 points is a small lead, especially the way our D was giving up yards. This team didn't do anything easily. They often played tight games. -
What I figure happened was the Bombers were in their first game where as the Edmonton guys had a game last week already, they had that slight edge in having experienced the game speed before, took the Bombers guys a little bit to get back into it and from that point on it was no contest.
