  1. after a good chat with a candidate in the upcoming AB elex...... UCP believe it will be the closest election in more than 50 years and that it will come down to 16,000 votes, based on their data. 16k in Calgary. They're campaigning the city hard, trying to spread as much money around as possible to cover those 16k. Going to be very very interesting.
  2. Demski is a key piece in all of this, to me. If the kid was too dumb to make it, I think Demski would have said something. For sure Walters would have checked with him. So hopefully this is all much ado about nothing and the kid turns out to be a superstar and a good person that fits in.
  3. someone should ask the Stamps beat writer about picking up a 35 year old coming off an achilles injury..............
  4. Well, the thing is we DID see it from him circa 2018, but he's since lost it. I think it's still in him, it just looks like he's stopped caring. He might get back to where he was as arguably the Jets best player (hard to remember those times) with another team where he's re-energized.
  5. I still think he has it in him to be a really great player in this league, but I don't think it'll be in Winnipeg. He needs a fresh start, so hopefully they can deal him without getting completely fleeced.
  6. it's one thing if 55 had been absent.....invisible... but he was an outright liability last night. Not sure if he's hurt or what, but that's a guy that should be leading the way....he's the definition of a passenger at this point.
  7. Is Scheiffele doing anything positive to contribute in this series? If he's not doing something to be a hindrance, he's not doing anything at all.... Really disappointed in that guy.
  8. fair enough...if we're talking about getting hot at the right time, just enough to lose in the final.... I can absolutely see that. Edmonton, Calgary, Montreal, Ottawa, Vancouver (and even 2018 Jets, to a degree) have all had their chance to make a run only to lose in the final. I could definitely at least PERCEIVE of this...
  9. I've just been conditioned to believe that no Canadian team will ever win the SC ever again.... especially in a league this big, you really can't compare it to the Bombers winning in an 8 or 9 team CFL.
  10. so, from the kid's brother: “I know that he can adapt really quickly and he’s smart. He’s a smart kid but he just doesn’t choose to use all of his brain (sometimes),” said Avante Tyrell. I really hope the kid figures it out and it's just a matter of maturing, but....that's concerning. I mean, pro sports careers are so short..... a four year education paid for my the school should be automatic.
  11. Sellers was in the CFL in '95....... TIL........... that is wild. I really thought Taman found him and brought him in.
  12. I just want Boston out because it'll really open up the playoffs to all teams. As it stands, it feels like they're a team of destiny this year....
  13. I am, and have always been, a big PaMo fan, so I'm definitely cheering for him....... hoping he can find a way! but.......which beer?? Inquiring minds need to know...
  14. always concerned about the "academic issues" thing....... I'll take a smart player with less athletic gifts over the other way around every time. But......as always......In The Trinity We Trust.
  15. it'll never happen, but my goodness how wonderful would it be to see Boston get upset in the first round.... kick the anthill but good. Everything just wide ******* open.....
  16. Yeah, my local "fibre to the premises" company here in AB (one of the only local ones in Canada) is getting all new hardware and is trying to ween people off set-top boxes and strictly use their app and stream it to the TV, which is fine for streaming shows or live sports, but I'm not sure how it'll work for saving things to the cloud (which their set-top boxes do)... hoping to find out more on that soon. If that's possible, then we may be getting somewhere...
  17. wife and I still have network shows.... all 3 Law and Order's, Young Sheldon, Young Rock, Son of a Critch.... but those are far outweighed by the streaming shows we watch. Once the technology catches up, and I'm able to record/save live sports without a set-top-box PVR, we'll likely ditch "cable". But I need to be able to record and save Bombers games for review during the off season. That's my sole reason for having cable at this point.
  18. From writing to acting.... One of the best episodes of TV I've ever watched. To have had this and the recent Succession ep within weeks of each other... My goodness we are blessed. Also great: the first two eps of Barry final season. NoHo Hank is a gift to us all.
  19. Awesome!! There's a bunch of props from How I Met Your Mother that I really wanna get when they come up for auction...
  20. any Lasso fans here? This week's episode, IMHO, is arguably the best in the entire series so far. Two weeks ago, after watching the Succession ep that we've all been waiting for, I said "this is the best episode of TV I've ever seen in my life", and after watching this week's Lasso I said "I've never enjoyed an episode of TV as much as I have this one"..... we're really in a golden age of prestige TV. And then there's people watching ******* reality shows........
  21. that all checks out......sigh. What a bunch of goobers.
  22. 37% of people don't believe in evolution........truly incredible.
