  1. AB is kicking ass and testing everyone they can. That's how you beat this thing.... Tests out the wazoo. I know our population is higher but Christ we're doing like 4000 tests per day!
  2. Geroy TRIED to come back but the Bombers said no, and honestly were right to do so because he wasn't better than what we had. Our receiving corps was so deep he couldn't crack it.
  3. Larry Arugala had a great rookie season and a not so good follow up. I, and others, argued that he more than deserved a chance to redeem himself, but he was railed against by most and heckled out of town. Glad we ended up with Meddy and glad his career rebounded like a lot of us thought it would. Always liked that guy. He doesn't owe anyone, media or fans, an explanation.
  4. Also low positive case numbers because low number of tests being done. Still, good news is good for morale....
  5. Right right....as I do my best to forget. Forgive me for not remembering such an illustrious part of our past...
  6. If there's a God..... Ironically......
  7. American morons are why we won't see the border open for a long time and why we won't see CFL football for a long time, unfortunately.
  8. You stole that from Wade Miller's quote.....
  9. There is absolutely no way something like that EVER happens in Canada. Your crazy republican nightmares would never happen here, especially under a Liberal government. I stand by that I'm in favour of whatever measures keep the general public. Call me crazy, but one of the people closest to me in my life is an extremely vulnerable person in their early 60s in a long term care facility in Calgary and if I have to lock down the whole country to keep them safe, then **** everyone's rights.
  10. then arrest them....you don't just say "we can't control people, so we can't do it"......you deter them by any means necessary to protect the general public. I'm fully on board.
  11. Big fan of this idea.....would love to see it become the rule.
  12. *sobs* TJ Rubley, Kevin McDougall, Troy Vargas, Troy Kopp............
  13. I think I can understand the mental health benefits of all these things, so there's a case to be made there......but I also 100% agree with what you're saying. I'm fully on board with mass lockdowns to end this thing as quickly as possible. The economy will recover.... dead people won't.
  14. I read a great quote awhile back about why sports is going to be the very last thing to come back. I'm paraphrasing, but it said, basically: "Sports is the byproduct of a healthy society. When everyone is healthy and everything is back to normal, and there are zero other worries, THEN we can talk about having sports and entertainment in our lives". I've seen some make the case that sports is an economic driver, so it should come back early for that reason, but I don't necessarily buy it. I'm more inclined to believe that we don't NEED sports that badly. It's far more important to make sure that everyone is safe and will remain so.
  15. I know I've posted this before, but I'm bored and staring out the window of my office...... if I could have any life in the world....like, if I won Lotto Max and could do anything.....I would live the life Buff has right now. Like, no question. Brand new house at Oak Bluff, cottage on LOTW, nicest fishing boat money can buy......done. It's all I want in life.
  16. I dunno...he turned down more money from LA so he could stay in Wpg. You gonna tell me we overpayed for Buff?
  17. I don't think there's any real surprise that Buff values quality of life over money. This is not a guy who has ever given the impression that he's only in it for the cash.
  18. It's Pitts/Stegall at the top and then Geroy a ways back of them both in 3rd........ I won't even listen to any other argument.
  19. an Esks fan that I know through the music business was incredulous that I made that claim last week. Said Milt was maybe Top 10 receivers all time, and that Mervyn Fernandez was the all time greatest. I didn't even know where to begin with that...
  20. they can't afford to do that. It's either fully as normal, with fans, or cancel the season. There's no other way. And since US players won't be allowed across the border yet and fans won't be allowed to gather until sometime in late 2021..............
  21. One thing that often goes overlooked (overshadowed by Cameron and Westwood tough games) is how good Milt played in the 01 GC game. He was outstanding and made a TD catch in triple coverage that is, to this day, one of the greatest football catches I've ever seen in my life.
  22. the Bombers had actually played a rather poor game in 01 vs Ham, and were lucky to win that one. They'd looked rusty after the starters took games off and then they had the bye....in the end, it was an omen for how the GC would go. Sigh.
  23. Kenney had better follow Hinshaw, and Hinshaw better (I believe she will) follow Tam, who is following the W.H.O. The problem with Jason Kenney is that he actually believes he's smarter than everyone, so I'm concerned that he stops listening to the experts. As long as we're following the W.H.O. guidelines, I'm good with whatever...
