I'd be ok if Tim Hortons filed for bankruptcy and was taken over by a Canadian company. Timmy's is D level quality these days.

The TV Thread
The only way a modern day Baywatch could work is if they could get Sydney Sweeney as the new Pam.... otherwise I don't think blonde bimbos in bathing suits works in 2026. Trying to make it anything else will just end up as cheese as Baywatch Nights was.

What is disappointing is that they stated that they will go from 8 tenants up to 10 tenants. I would have thought with a massive increase in seating and cutting out that full corner that they would have at least 4 - 6 more spots for new restaurants. Hopefully with the remodel it forces the crap places to leave (Chinese restaurant, Koya, Taco Time) and its replaced with something that is at least edible.

Part of the problem is that Winnipeg is over saturated with restaurants. I have no idea how some of these places stay in business with so much competition. We went to Nu-Burger on Henderson to check out the new location and including us they had only 3 customers. This was from noon when we arrive up until 1:00 ish. I think the opposite and that the chain restaurants will be closing and the one offs that offer high quality & home cooked foods are the ones that will survive.

Details are coming out now and its really getting ugly. The single Mom of the shooter seems to be equally as much of a monster. She pressured her kid into becoming a Trans-girl at age 12 because she wanted to have a trans-child and gave him/her hormones to become a girl. Kid grew up with many issues, dropped out of school at 15 and had a firearms license. Police had many calls with the individual. A ticking time bomb that was waiting to go off. Such a massive tragedy.

I wonder if the Olympics as a whole is in decline as people age out? Do young people really care about luge and skiing and anything outside of hockey?

I'll just say this... don't always believe what you read on reddit. At this point don't believe anything on the news or on social media at all. N-e-ways to get back on the NFL topic... how about that Stefon Diggs break up at the Super Bowl itself :D

Why would ICE try to find specific people in a parade of "1 million". Wouldn't that be the least effective way of doing their job? However it may be the smartest move since 1 million people would be distracted downtown leaving the other areas empty and much easier to move in and move out.

Disagree majorly. They didn't come in looking completely lost and throwing 3 yard check downs. I didn't say they "lit it up" but they at least showed that they can enter into the game and at least show a general threat of scoring.

Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
You are suggesting that you play guys based on salary? What if a team makes a mistake and overpays and then find out that the back up is the next Davis Alexander? Putting in a back up isn't necessarily throwing in the towel. Change of pace, maybe the starter is just having a bad day?

Ricky Martin was singing live same with Gaga, it's not all lip synched. I just thought the show was boring and cheaply made. I also LOL'd at the fools who paid big bucks for prime seats only to see this:

I keep thinking about a few years back when the Riders brought in guys like Patterson/Dolegala/Fine and those guys were able to hop right in and play. They weren't running a dink and dunk 5 yard check down game either, they ran the complete O with varying levels of success and failure. It feels like the Blue haven't done anything like this in years. It's always a back up QB comes in and it's just flat.

Veteran insurance. It would be nice if for this season they can give our back ups some real reps throughout the season. Many times over the last several seasons we could have given Wilson or McGuire before him some real reps.

Super Bowl was a bit of a snoozer for me. The first half was boring as could be. 2nd half was better. I'm glad Seattle won, the Pats were gifted an easy schedule this season and had an easy play off run barely squeaking by a QB who had thrown zero passes this season. The half time show looked so cheap this year? Usually they have eloborate sets and big dance numbers and this felt very very cheap. Also a tonne of lip synching and the music itself was a big meh. It felt like I was listening to a DJ at the pool bar when I'm in Mexico lol. It didn't feel like a big show to me.
