  1. I really hope people don't contract the virus from the protests. I personally believe this BLM movement is the biggest, most important social movement of my lifetime and NEEDS to be heard. It's just really really unfortunate it had to happen during a pandemic.
  2. If it was a playoff game, it probably would be....
  3. nobody, anywhere in North America, at any point, has been in a lockdown. That's a dog-whistle term for some people concerned about their "rights". Italy had a lockdown...police/army in the streets making sure nobody leaves their home. The fact that some people think what we've been going through is a "lockdown" shows just how privileged we really are.
  4. that doesn't exist, unfortunately, and it's my understanding that CJOB's logger tape of that call no longer exists either. Damn shame.
  5. it's just pointless chatter, but I'll take it...
  6. AB jumped from 7 new cases Friday to 40 on Saturday. There was no update today, so we'll get a 48-Hour update Monday...
  7. Oi... Listen, here's the thing. I'm not even debating MAs worthiness here...he's a great young man. But Ken Wiebe has been a sports writer forever and MA has only been in the game a couple of years. I know how humble that kid is and even HE would acknowledge how good Wiebe has been for a really long time. "Riding Murat's coattails" is just a really silly thing to say.
  8. I don't like Gord Miller for a plethora of reasons... He's an arrogant Sundre guy for starters...... But he's a really good football PBP guy and certainly a phenomenal hockey PBP guy... Just don't tell him that.
  9. I have never laughed so hard until these two posts. I've known Murat Ates since he was a baby and this is hilarious. Never mind the fact that Ken Wiebe has been a Winnipeg sports media legend for decades.......
  10. Cuthbert has been doing TSN regional games the whole time too. I believe Leafs regional is on TSN so he's been doing those with Ferraro...
  11. Two reasons. One, she's not particularly good at what she does. I have no doubts she's very nice, but she stumbles her way through every hit she does, be it Jets or Bombers games. Two, just because you are a sideline reporter doesn't mean you can do PBP. Not sure how many times I have to tell people, it's an extremely unique skillset that takes years of practice to become even adequate at.
  12. I'm so torn because on one hand I can see that you are terribly sexist and God only knows what else..... But on the other hand, I'm a big believer that the best person available should get the job, and not shoehorn someone in just to fill a quota.
  13. Sweden took a chance with horrible results and none of them good and are now going "oops..."
  14. You can't have a 2-Analyst team. It doesn't work that way. But Gord Miller with Dunigan would be great. Walby doing colour with someone... Rod Smith... Would be great. Not sure CW wants to travel that much tho. I think TSN still considers Suitor a great analyst and think they'll try and find a new PBP guy to step in next to him and maintain the A Team. Black and Forde remain as B Team likely. Miller/Dunigan C Team. But that's all very generic and things can be mixed and matched...
  15. That's fair. Pedersen and Carteri are among the worst of all time when it comes to shilling for the locals...
  16. Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......... I mean, I love Knucks, but................
  17. Cool story from Darrin Bauming today....said that he was traveling with Cuthbert during GC104 week, and Cuthbert said he'd called a GC win for every franchise except Wpg. He completed the set in November, and then called it a career...
