If he cares you mean.

Not to mention that as it became clear that Luke was a powerful Jedi in his own right the entire focus of Vader and the Emperor became either turning Luke to the darkside or killing him because they were that afraid of how he could **** them up otherwise. And really he is directly responsible for Vader and Palpatine dying because we saw that Luke himself had plenty of time to escape before the 2nd death star went kaboom so anyone who thinks Vader or the Emperor couldn't have got out is only lying to themselves.

ehhhh they all went and fought anyway so I see it more like there were some soft as baby sit types but the doers went and did what needed to be done.

It's not that they were confused and misinformed, they were angry and feeling abandoned, always a dangerous mix for voters cause they're likely in that situation to go and do something stupid.

Actually planning for 2017 started well before then if you want to get really into it.

Hamilton might make a lot of sense for Glenn seeing as the trouble they've had with Collaros being hurt. Gotta think they feel they need to make a splash in the playoffs sooner rather than later.

You know I had a massive dandelion infestation in my yard but I hired a company to take care of it and the things are all gone now. I might recommend you do something similar if the dandelions are bothering you that much.

It won't be his problem, he'll have a million people to blame it on.

The difference is that Star Wars has always been movie friendly where as Star Trek was an episodic TV show with a minimal budget so the focus of the show had to be different than the focus that a movie would take. That's why there's damned few actual good Star Trek movies period. Too hard to take what makes a show great and condense it into a movie format that everyone is going to want to watch. But I enjoyed Rogue One the only negative things I could talk about were minor quibbles. There was too much jumping around at the start, I didn't like Princess Leia's ship being at the battle like that at the end, you know small things, but overall quite enjoyable.

Because he's still a better writer than any of the newspaper folks with more insight into the game and what fans actually want to read about? Being negative about the team doesn't make someone more objective, it just makes them negative and right now there are several reporters in winnipeg who only care to talk an endless stream of **** about things. bitter old men upset that their medium is dying and they are irrelevant in the internet age.

Are the Blue Bombers the Rodney Dangerfield of the CFL?

They hate us cause they ain't us. -
You of all people should appreciate how the media has to play nice with the local sports team.

and there is the problem with your entire argument. Development doesn't have to happen in a game situation. At some point yes players need that game experience but plenty of backups develop just fine without getting game time and then when they do get to play make the most of it. We as fans can't say **** about how much Davis has developed watching from the sidelines, but that's why we pay the coaches and managers big bucks.

Implying Willy was tossed away? Did they not return an all-star player and first round pick for him? Not really being tossed away
-
I don't think Glenn is a foregone conclusion. When asked about that Walters basically gave the "he wants more money than we have budgeted for the position" Honestly I think Davis is likely to be the backup going into the season. It's just silly to me to think that just because a 3rd stringer hasn't been in a position where he's had to start that he is suddenly not worth keeping around. QBs take time to ripen and you seem to want to move on from a guy they have invested time into right when he should potentially be starting to pay off.
-
He hasn't been in a position where he's been able to show anything one way or the other. Why in gods name are we going to throw away all the development that's already happened just because he's had more experienced guys ahead of him in the 1 and 2 slots his entire time here? If the coaches and GM want to make that call it's fine but we as fan can't say **** about what Davis can or can't do simply because we haven't been shown it.

I'm not sure sure, that Toronto team is falling apart in more places than one and I really think that having a pocket passer behind a shoddy OL doesn't help. Lord knows we saw that here, but I think our OL is in a place now where a guy like Ray could resurrect some of his past glory... Or he's done and too injured I dunno.

because spending rarely is done for one year only. You fund a program it's going to run for several years generally. I mean he coulda jacked up the taxes to pay for everything and not run a deficit, is that what people want? Honestly deficit is such a buzz word. Spending during a recession is good.
-
also a factor is that the Bombers have less free agents than a lot of teams.
-
The ReformaCons put that party before the people in several elections so not comparable at all. If you're going 5o slag Harper at least use the time he mused about using the ndp and bloc in a liberal minority situation
-
One can argue that stepping into power during a global recession and having to pander to the opposition in minority government situations led to those deficits....

bottom line every player is different and father time catches up to different people at different rates. -
