Just need Kerri to put the boots to McCarville this afternoon, and we can have a stress-free All-Manitoba Scotties Final tonight...... let's get 'er done, Einar!

Pinsent was a true gem.... this is one of my all time favourite 22 MInutes bits: And also, if you've never seen The Grand Seduction, go stream it today....Pinsent isn't the STAR, per se, but he's fabulous in his role:

He truly is one of us....

The complete exasperation you can "hear" in that Tweet is hilarious. I actually LOLed...

El Nino.... One of my favourite players since his World Juniors appearance, but he never quite translated as a pro.

For what it's worth, I've flown Fair probably 5 or 6 times now, and have never had this issue. I'm not saying it'll never happen, but I've never had that happen once while I've flown on any airline... WestJet, AC, or Flair... I'll probably even give Lynx a run at some point.

Many times... No issues at all. The cost is absolutely bare bones. As long as you don't need to bring anything with you, you're good. But if you need bags or anything else, it starts to add up quickly. Otherwise, Flair is great!

I really thought this was the most sensible thing I read last night following the loss:

it's been a good week. We had 4 teams in the bonspiel, and the best 2 of the 4 remaining are the 2 Manitoba teams. Anything can happen in 10 ends, but sincerely hoping it's Einar vs Jones in the final, as it should be. Those would be the two best reps for Canada at Worlds. As for the Worlds, Canada doesn't really stack up the way it used to. Asian and Western-European teams are typically the ones to beat each year, and Canada is somewhere in the Top 5....... not the dominating force we once were.

Oh, Mennotoba...........

No, they brought back the guy from last year who took over when Harris got hurt. He'll be splitting time at best...

But, you of all people know that pandering to a toddler having a tantrum also isn't the answer. Chretien was right, he just shouldn't have been so public with his thoughts...

Have we talked on here about the "15 Minute City" conspiracy theories....? Is that getting much traction in Manitoba? Let me tell you, Alberta is up in arms about this...... absolutely freaking out. I was at a social event Saturday night where various local politicians give short speeches "to bring greetings" from their various governments (local/provincial) and one of them went off on an absolute tirade about how her government would never allow such a thing, and telling those in attendance not to worry and that they'll never have to put up barbed wire around their property, etc....... It is just wild right now in rural AB.

The defensive back also returns kicks, recorded 155 tackles, 25 pass breakups, five interceptions and one sack during his days at Colgate, which included 37 starts in 44 games. He also amassed 1,642 all-purpose yards as a returner and part-time contributor on offence. After college he played for the Potsdam Royals of the German Football League before earning his shot with the Bengals. Brown (6-0, 197, South Dakota State; born: 26/3/1996 in Omaha, NEB) was a seventh-round pick, 223rd overall, by the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2019 NFL Draft. Brown played four seasons at SDSU (2015-18) and suited up for 51 games for the Jackrabbits, racking up 148 tackles, eight interceptions, 35 pass breakups and four forced fumbles. He was two-time All-Missouri Valley Football Conference First Team All-Star and served as the team captain in 2018. Anctil (6-1, 234, Kansas State; born: 28/9/1996 in Lenexa, KS) starred at Kansas State after transferring from Coffeyville Community College. Anctil was a Second Team All-Big 12 with the Wildcats and holds school records for punting average in a season (45.4 yards in 2019) and career punting average (44.8). During his one season at Coffeyville, he earned First-Team All-Region and All-Conference honours. Sanford (6-5, 300, University of British Columbia; born: 9/19/1998 in Salmon Arm, B.C.) returns to the Blue Bombers after attending training camp last year. Sanford played with the Thunderbirds from 2016-21 and attended the Canadian Football League’s West Regional Combine last spring.

I'm with you......he's definitely a better QB than VAJ. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see Dane leading this team by mid-season, as you suggest.

I get that some guys just don't translate from college to pro, but I can't fathom how the highest FG% in CIS history can't make it as a pro kicker..... that doesn't compute with me.

oh wow...

that is EVERY sensible person's take.......the dude is full on loony tunes.

Well, that's... Uhh... One way to go, I suppose....

I think he honestly wants to be at home. His wife is a big deal at Marvel in their movies division, so they don't need money. He just wants to be with his family at this point.

Reading the quotes from this on twitter today and and people saying how important he as to the team and the league... What in the actual ****??

I'd wondered about the bonus part...ordinarily, that'd be when he gets tossed.......

a great follow with some great music covers as well
