well, no.....that can't possibly be right.............. carry the one..........

"hopefully".........what a ******* tool.

Feds said today that they need a proper business plan from the league and PA before they can move forward on this. Read a quote from one MP who said "we can work with them, if they present a proper business plan...and the sooner the better". So I get the impression that things are relatively positive, but the league needs to get it's **** together in a real hurry.

DYK: Tonight TSN is showing the game where Milt got his 138th TD to break the all time record. Former OB.com poster Coorsman, who, like a lot of us these days, has too much time on his hands.....put these together for your viewing pleasure........

I've come to realize that the whole "Americans crossing the border" thing isn't really an issue. When talking about NHL, the feds have said that they can come over, but they have to quarantine for 14 days before they're allowed to do anything. So I'm not concerned about that at all.

the new PL Labbe....

So, I love the discussion on this, but here's a couple thoughts from someone in broadcasting re:advertising/advertisers... -Shopping for anything and everything is down right now. If people aren't spending money at a business (Wendy's, Rona, Save On Foods, etc...) that business can't afford to advertise. That's sort of the world we're living in right now. All media corps are BEGGING for advertising right now...they've all seen a major drop off. So, asking the clients to pay more because "more eyes on the product" isn't going to fly, because they just can't afford to right now. I'm not saying anything is absolute, but the whole world of advertising has changed in the last two months, so I'm not sure what would actually work...

There's definitely not going to be a 2020 season. If the league declares bankruptcy and folds or whatever, I'm still confident that there will be SOME kind of "league" one day, with the teams that can actually make it. It'll resurrect again one day... I'm sure of it.

Sports owners, ESPECIALLY in the CFL, have never been in it to make money. Most of the time, it's a money losing venture they take on for the "prestige" of saying they're a sports team owner...

for my fellow HIMYM superfans..... https://tvline.com/2020/05/07/cobie-smulders-robin-sparkles-returns-video-himym/?fbclid=IwAR0xMwc1BXt7TYJ0_Td6jfmJE51QBdBcrI4ntVO8bHiou1JVzFgMNADI_og

In my defense, it was direct quotes from Horgan in BC and Trudeau. And again, I fully understand that nobody really knows anything right now...they're all guessing. But when the people at the top seem resided to the idea that it's "vaccine or nothing", you just sort of go along with it. But time will tell, I suppose. Everyone's most afraid of that second wave come flu season in the fall...

You don't have to look any further than the hockey players on Letterkenny to know that this is exactly how young hockey players are and that it's almost "celebrated". I know for a fact this is how a lot of them (not all) are. It's gross, but it's a major part of the culture. In 10 years, they're gonna be disgusted with themselves.

the reason I brought up a vaccine in regards to "returning to full normal", is that I keep reading how we won't have gatherings over 50 people without a vaccine. So, no fans at sports or concerts until a vaccine. Now, obviously I don't know ****.... just that's what I keep reading in legitimate media.

There's no vaccine YET but there will be one. Life will not fully return to normal until that vaccine is ready and available to the world. Hopefully this calendar year but might not be until sometime in 2021... Until that time, we'll continue to live this "new normal".

You can put whatever you want on those masks and they still look silly and I think people wearing them look silly. Now, are they helpful and keeping people safe and healthy? Absolutely. No question. But I think if it's "stay home" or "wear a mask", I'm going to just stay home.

Just for clarification on this story, more than 800 of the 921 have recovered. Still really awful, but just for clarity's sake....

I laughed at the thought of him having to call Osh back the next day because he was too much of a mess the first time... ha ha.

I was thinking more along the lines of:

Absolutely disagree...at least, not ENTIRELY.....measurables are just a small part of it.

Listen...you're new here. You showed up right around the draft and started defending this kid out of Nevada, which makes me believe you either are him or the family (most likely)...it happens regularly. Thank you for joining the conversation. Most of us have been around a long time, and have seen some ****. It's the "NFL body type with an injury history so he fell to the later rounds" thing that is HIGHLY suspicious because we have seen it so many times before..... most notably with Rashaun Simonise a few years ago. Nobody is saying FOR SURE that Orange isn't going to pan out......it's just that there's sufficient evidence to be highly skeptical until proven otherwise.

It's already happening. Even in my small town here, everyone is out on this Saturday, completely disregarding social distancing practices. I went to CT to get some lawn fertilizer stuff and it was a circus. I got in and got out but it was a heroic effort to try and avoid people. Idiots who won't get it until we look like Italy with dead bodies everywhere...

I'm petrified. Very happy to be somewhat secluded in a small town north of the real problem (Calgary). My wife's mother is in a long term care home in South Calgary (she has a very advanced MS) and thankfully she's safe so far, but we worry non stop. Wife wants to visit her for Mothers Day, but I don't want any part of going into the city...

based on the picks we had available to us, we did well. As to be expected, from Walters and Co...
