we just have to watch China and see what they do...and try to follow that (or not follow it, depending on how it goes...) as it's our only real source of relative information at this point.

Asterisk ✳... And also they can go **** themselves.

Madani with a few details today. They're prepping for an 8 game season, which is the absolute minimum the league is prepared to go with. Would start at Labour Day. Also of note, Ambrosie having a "Town Hall" for/with fans online Friday at Noon EST. Second, of note, MOS doing an online QnA with fans on Friday... POSITIVE CFL THINGS TO BE EXCITED ABOUT!!! ❤️

I don't put a ton into my RRSPs but I put as much as I can afford. I am really glad that I don't plan on taking any out for another 25 years. In the meantime, hopefully RBC is loading me up on good stocks...

Elimimian (CFLPA Pres) sent out a message telling players to "prepare for the worst case scenario".....which sounds about right. Tait had a good piece today about what some of the players are doing to stay healthy during this time. Will be tough to stay in football shape for 6 months or more when you can't get to a gym to lift weights...

I was just thinking today that we're probably not going to see a season start until Labour Day. If we get ANY CFL football this year, I'm calling it a win. It's one of the only things I really want in life right now (...other than good health for everyone...)

If we're still seeing exponential growth in positive cases a month from now, it wouldn't entirely shock me to see mandatory lockdown similar to what Italy is doing right now. Military in the streets and all that...whatever it takes to end this thing. I'd rather do a short term, mandatory lockdown than a long term "ehhh let's see what happens".....

neat! I have a not-so-mild obsession with my hometown and its history. My grandfather was one of the "founding fathers", and received the Order of Manitoba for his work in designing the town. It's pretty great....

I love Pinawa... It's my favourite place on earth.... But it is forever 1963, in so many ways.

Funny enough... I'm from Pinawa, which most know is a nuclear town. Was Atomic Energy of Canada for awhile and now is Canadian Nuclear Labs, but for awhile in the late 90s/early 00s, the guy in charge of AECL Whiteshell was a Mr Burns.... My dad, a firefighter for AECL, always got a kick outta that.

No joke...I'm sincerely concerned that J5V is going to kill someone/get someone killed....

thank you!!

we were up nearly at the top row...Section K, Row 23. (I can only confirm this because I have one of those framed things from the Bombers after the old stadium shut down...a piece of my seat, a piece of turf and some other stuff all in a frame...)

I had season tickets in that endzone that he scored in, so it was kind of "right in front of us" when it happened. It was pretty bonkers. I just remember how much pressure there was to get the damned thing over with, so people would stop asking about it and they could move on with the rest of the season.

Trump or no Trump, JPT has been an outstanding leader during this unprecedented mess. I'm generally on the fence about him, but throughout this ordeal, I've been VERY impressed. JPT and Deena Hinshaw are my two favourite people lately....Nenshi has been a solid voice, as well.

Combo of both home and work. I can do most of my "office" duties from home, but I'm on air hosting two afternoon drive shows at the same time every weekday, which is something i have to be on site to do. We've locked our doors, and only essential staff are allowed in for the time being.

skin cancer diagnosis for Jon Ryan. Hopefully they've caught it in time. IIRC, Jon's dad Bob used to post here as BRyan, and unfortunately passed away after a battle with cancer.

Puts a couple into his midsection... You know... JUST SO HE STAYS DOWN!

If the social isolation and non stop COVID news lasts until fall, we will see a horror movie worthy uptick of suicides and suicide attempts. The level of depression and anxiety in North America is already at danger levels. This cloud of negativity makes things worse and you are going to see a MASSIVE fallout if it lasts more than a couple months...

There are many, but for the sake of this thread, I'll say a well lubricated Bob Cameron at Bombers House during this past Grey Cup Week, planking on the bar. It will live with me forever...

Ron James, who MCed the legends luncheon thing that day, talking on Strombo's show and telling the story of what went down... Is one of the funniest things on the internet...

😭 😭 😭 😭

ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL THE WAY DOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN..........

the issue I have is that people who don't take this seriously enough could end up killing someone. That's not hype, that's the reality of how quickly this thing spreads and could end up transmitting from you to a senior or immuno-comprimised person...

Americans are going to wipe themselves off the map. If there's a God, we'll be able to keep them out of our country for a long time...
