Super Duper Negatron

You couldn't blame him for taking that, and no way could we match it.

Yikes. Bye Lawler I guess.

Wait until you find out they are the ones we elect to public office!

LOL. Great tweet by Hodge:

What the crap? Wow.

Honest question, and try to ignore the dumb protests, convoy and rhetoric. What is the public health rationale for forcing truckers to be vaccinated to cross the border?

This looks like it might be a hoot:

In somewhat surprising news, Reilly's hats have agreed to stay with the club as offensive consultants.

I'm no NFL fan but holy crap this game.

Low scoring games today. Should the NFL move to 5 downs? Discuss.

Great article on CBC about those worried about sending their kids to school Monday. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/manitoba-covid-19-kids-faq-omicron-1.6315982

Take me, a complete non-fan of the NFL. Put a survey in front of me that asks if changing to CFL rules would increase my interest. I would likely answer yes, check out a couple of games and then continue to ignore it forever. I suspect the same is true in reverse. The rules are not the reason people aren't watching. Changing them drastically will be the reason a lot of people that ARE watching, stop.

You win!

By the way, can I just say that the discussion on this board is a lifesaver. It is so much more measured than the other looney bin echo chambers on both sides of the argument.

Trying to figure out what the endgame is going to be for this whole thing, and whether a certain segment of the population will ever feel comfortable again. I keep reading discourse online from fully vaccinated (and boostered) individuals that would like to lock everything down, mandate masks forever, etc. I get the idea that we want to reduce pressure on the hospitals, but isn't the science pretty clear that an otherwise healthy and fully vaccinated person is extremely unlikely to end up there? And if we think that unvaccinated folks are also the least likely to follow public health orders, what else can we do conceivably do at this point that is going to make any difference. Short of locking down until we vaccinate everyone, it feels to me like this is as good as it gets at this point. I feel for teachers, but when I read things online like "THE GOVERNMENT IS SENDING US TO THE SLAUGHTER WITH NO PROTECTION!!!", I can't help but think "You have protection. It is called a vaccine and so far all the science says it is pretty damn good".

I am tempted to post my address, because this is all sounding awesome.

My PVR. What time can you come over?

Congrats to Alford. Hope it works out for him.

As someone who thinks a person who is able but chooses not to get vaccinated is stupid and selfish, I don't like the idea of mandatory vaccination. Taking away privileges, etc, is one thing, but something about forcing a needle into someone's arm makes me uneasy. Unless I am misunderstanding what they mean by "mandatory".

Good thing there is no mask mandate in Saskatchewan because Leonard can't PPE.

We made the same call. No regrets.

It is not an easy decision. Commitment to the team is one factor, plus the fact that I am helping with coaching both. I am still waffling, to be honest. I wish the province would just take it out of my hands. Already decided to skip my beer league game this week until my booster takes hold.

Monitoring. Sheesh. If me and my kids don't catch it at their hockey this weekend I will be shocked.
