I didn't read this thread... but can 17to85/Noeller finally stop whining about our offense being subpar after tonight? The whole team was lights out... what a great performance. Even back ups like Augustine and Gray had fun near the end of the game. Great game.

No odds and sods?

HH - I enjoyed that last TD where the guy in civilian clothes was bouncing on one leg... didn't see which guy it was but I thought that was funny.

Ottawa has to clean house after this season. You can't possibly give Desjardins or LaPo another year.

So Chris Jones defense can't stop the run?

Hey works out better for us if we have to play them in the play offs... 5 - 6 guys missing from the starting line up is a huge blow to any team.

Your info map has the United States in the top 5. Are you suggesting that the standard of living is better in the United States compared to Finland which is lower in your chart?

It's not really that cold out, I can see lots of walk up crowd.

Sorry if I didn't specify in which way how Finlands financial standard of living is, in comparison to the completely irrelevant GDP map that you had. Are you suggesting that the standard of living in Finland is on par with Canada? I'd like for you to show me areas with massive poverty similar to what we even have in our province.

You don't like the truth?

From Wikipedia: Wahlberg established the Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation in May 2001 for the purpose of raising and distributing funds to youth service and enrichment programs. Wahlberg is active with The Good Shepherd Center for Homeless Women and Children. People can change.

Agreed but each persons situation is different. Some people are hard working and unfortunately live in poverty. Some people like my old neighbours choose to live in poverty out of lazyiness and entitlement and believe everyone should pay for them. This is why the "appeal" process is where all fines should be determined and how they currently are assessed.

https://www.stat.fi/tup/satavuotias-suomi/suomi-maailman-karjessa_en.html Finland is completely different from Canada, To say it's similar is completely insane. I could be wrong so please prove me wrong, but does Helsinki have a similar downtown to Winnipeg with homeless camps, drug problems, and little to no pulse? Does Helsinki have an area of town as large as Downtown/North End/Point Douglas with massive crime rates , poverty, drug issues, extremely low property values? j Does Finland have areas in the country where people do not have access to fresh water and these areas are riddled with poverty and crime? And this is why they issue fines of $20 dollars - $50 dollars. Trust me you'd be sickened to see the fines that people get for doing absolutely awful things. They impose fines based on how much likely they can get from whoever they ticket. So someone who is a normal person who gets caught speeding is far more likely to pay a $500 ticket because they want to maintain a normal life, a career criminal who is in and out of jail has zero intentions of ever paying $500 so to avoid crowding the jails they will give the guy a $25 dollar fine. Completely un fair in my books.

I'd put Garcia & Dickenson over BLM also...

Are you suggesting that Winnipeg has similar standards of living as Finland? Finland is the 3rd richest country in the world. It's also a completely different culture then in Canada. Canada already does issue fines based on "probability of paying them". You'd be floored at finding out how little criminals are "fined" purely because the system knows that they won't repay them back.

Behind a great o-line Harris can pick apart the defenses, he only gets bad once things get tough for him. Fajardo as we have seen can only throw short passes and run around. Vernon Adams is a guy who will put up three shitty performances and then one great performance... way to inconsistent to rely on a play off run.

Harris and it's not even close.

This might be the most ridiculously bad idea ever.

No wait I got my stories mixed up... it was Zach Collaros coming back to Winnipeg because his wife had some cushy teaching job in Ontario and that he would never sign back with the team.

Didn't we hear the same thing about LaPo and his wife?

I have no idea who are free agents and which guys have NFL aspirations. All I know is that if we want to keep a player, with this regime more likely then not that guy is staying with this club even if it means taking on a contract that is slightly lower then what the competition offers.

Ottawa fans must really be burning up now after seeing how little was needed to get a starting QB.

As per Barker... Reilly is MOP so what is everyone talking about him being done?

Calgary looked good, but I'd like to see them against a team that actually puts some pressure on BLM. He wasn't exactly playing lights out against the Riders in both wins.

I watched the 2nd half of the Ottawa game... oh boy that Christison was absolutely awful... I had flashbacks of Alex Brink skipping balls into the dirt. Dude ends up getting seriously hurt and I'd imagine their goes his football career. That guy was awful. I don't see LaPolice lasting the season, he has to go that team looks just awful all around. If I'm Ottawa I'm airlifting Harris in ASAP before the GM and HC lose their jobs. Montreal Shiltz is better then VA... but he's still not great by any means. Pre Game for game #2... Barker says Reilly is MOP best QB in the league this year... I disagree. BC Lions look flat as hell and are calling a terrible game on offense. BLM is facing zero pressure and is throwing bombs with ease against a terrible BC defense. Calgary is definitely a threat IMO, but I'll fully reserve judgement when they play outside in the cold against a defense who has some semblance of life. BC Lions looked completely un prepared and very lazy today, not much effort at all after that long lay off.
