  1. Jones had critical interceptions and knock downs. No question in my mind that he's the MVP, if not for Harris.
  2. I always see this, and think, "or is it that the generation previous (of which I'm a member) just wants to be able to say whatever they want about whomever they want, and have zero repercussions...?"
  3. not enough love around here for the game Mike Jones played in the Grey Cup... if not for Harris, Jones is hands down the CFL MVP.
  4. I'm not as concerned about the CFL not having a firm business plan for their initial meeting. Ambrosie explained prior to that meeting that they were just going there to say "Listen, we are totally and completely f***ed if you don't help us..." and that was about it. He just wanted to make sure they knew that. After that, then they'd go into the nuts and bolts and come back with something more official. I'm 75% confident this is all going to work out and the feds will find a way to keep the CFL going until there's a vaccine and fans can come back.
  5. I am so beyond stoked for the CJOB re-airings this long weekend.... the 40 pounder of Crown I bought at Costco yesterday is not likely to be enough...
  6. It was Demski's run that had me feeling comfortable, but once we realized that Streveler couldn't be stopped (even with a crippled leg) that was it. Calgary just had no chance.
  7. During the west semi, 17to85 and I were sitting in our seats in the top row, along the 55....at half time we kinda went "this is good....we're in this thing..." and sure enough, after keeping it close in the 1st half, they busted it wide open in the second half. It was a lot of fun to be at.
  8. Have you never seen this?? It's from a Saturday Night Live skit about 15 years ago....
  9. They had to be made an example of. Society needs to change and this is how you begin to implement that change. Make an example of the worst offenders when they come to light.
  10. Do you not think they should shut down a place when there's an outbreak? Do you think people should be forced to work when sick and infectious to everyone around them?
  11. I was just thinking about this last night. Thought he would have been a good one to pitch the CFLs case to the feds...
  12. As an aside, I'm really curious what the rules on curling will be in the fall...
  13. I don't understand how people can be so dumb as to not understand why 99.9% of the population are doing something......
  14. well, no.....that can't possibly be right.............. carry the one..........
  15. "hopefully".........what a ******* tool.
  16. 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.
  17. 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........
  18. 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.
  19. the new PL Labbe....
  20. 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...
  21. 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.
  22. 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...
  23. for my fellow HIMYM superfans..... https://tvline.com/2020/05/07/cobie-smulders-robin-sparkles-returns-video-himym/?fbclid=IwAR0xMwc1BXt7TYJ0_Td6jfmJE51QBdBcrI4ntVO8bHiou1JVzFgMNADI_og
