2019-20 Grey Cup Champs Off-season discussion.
Brandon replied to Wanna-B-Fanboy's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Casey Printers career ended in Hamilton I thought? Brink succccccccccccked so many balls in the dirt skipping around. Jyles was under rated big time. Not a great QB but light years better then so many guys between him leaving and Nichols arriving. -
I wouldn't suggest people are morons. To play devils advocate... could someone who does get sick not be transported back to Winnipeg? Also wouldn't the % be higher of being infected in Winnipeg as you are exposed to way more potential carriers? I understand limiting people from travelling and going on vacation... but to suggest people are morons because they rather be isolated somewhere nice then sitting in the city exposed to tonnes of other people I don't think is appropriate.

From listening to the Moose PBP guy, it sounded like Stanley took a big step 2 seasons ago , but then this season (the one that just was cancelled) he regressed. He kept talking about the organization being patient with him and willing to give him time to grow.

2019-20 Grey Cup Champs Off-season discussion.
Brandon replied to Wanna-B-Fanboy's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Elliott had confidence and didn't play scared which was a nice thing.... however I don't think he had the physical tools that Strev, McGuire and even Bennett had. I do think people over rate how good he could of been. -
So how long before they join AEW ?

In fairness the residents of Pinawa are pisssssed at city folk as the last few years a lot of people have come to the area to go toobin' and have caused a lot of mess and issues with being drunk and littering and leaving the place a mess during summer. I think it's more then the COVID scare.

Jesse Ventura and Bobby Heenan were perfect heel commentators... I used to love the one liners and the justification they gave to the bad guys for doing what they did.

How did Poop Johnson not win best nickname?

The dude has 100's of millions of dollars and I can't believe people still are suckered in to giving him more money.

Did Gronk at least do his silly dance?

Lol I don't think you know what xenophobic means and it isn't racist at all. I feel like I'm on riderfans with some of the bumpkins on this board. I don't think China is our enemies, but I do agree that they are not our friends. Strictly business and yes China does not have the same ideology as we do and clearly will not change how they are any time soon. They'll be nice with Canada as long as it's beneficial for them.

Argonauts sign QB Nichols to three-year deal
Brandon replied to Deiter Fan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Prove me wrong? How come Nichols isn't back and was replaced by a guy with only a few starts with our team? -
Argonauts sign QB Nichols to three-year deal
Brandon replied to Deiter Fan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I'm not denying that LaPo was way to conservative... but don't make it seem like Nichols was playing at an elite level. The guy struggled massively at making any intermediate passes. Night and day different in how he played after his initial injury with us. Watch the games man, look at how many times our receivers had to dive or turn back and dig out passes that were under thrown. That was WITH great protection with the best o-line in the league. Your hate for LaPo has blinded you from seeing how shitty Nichols has been the last few years. I'm sure LaPo and Ottawa will suck balls this year if they play... but just imagine how shitty Nichols will be without a great o-line and the best rb in the league. I'll be surprised if they keep him for the full season. MBT as insane as he is, he can at least throw a 20 yard pass and can at least escape some pressure without turtling. Nichols is toast. -
Argonauts sign QB Nichols to three-year deal
Brandon replied to Deiter Fan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He had guys open and running routes ... You can't blame Lapo for inaccurate passes and zero ability to escape a rush. Nichols was good before his first injury with us...after it was night and day different in his ability to make plays. How many times can you blame Lapo when Nichols struggles to make a 10 yard pass where the receiver has to dive or stop completely and turn around and scoop a ball. If Lapo was so bad then how come with Zach the offense had no issues moving the ball and the new receivers suddenly came to life and were involved in the plays. Same with two seasons ago when Strev played as a normal qb (meaning not doing gadget trick plays each time) -
Argonauts sign QB Nichols to three-year deal
Brandon replied to Deiter Fan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He went deep a few times a game.... but out side of that it was predominately dink and dunk. The guy was absolutely useless on any midrange passes or throwing to receivers in stride. Night and day difference when Collaros played at the end of the season hitting guys like Bailey at full speed. -
Basic laptops/desktops are still going to run each unit at $1000. Way to expensive and then you have to factor in internet costs.... most kids even at poor schools have access to a machine. The greater challenge is having the parents co-operate and watch over the kids making sure they do their school work. I'm fortunate that my child has a great teacher and really good classmates so everyone is doing their best to keep up. Other stories I'm hearing are that many parents are treating this as an extended spring break and dumping the kids off at grandparents and/or simply loading up youtube and letting the kids keep themselves busy which is sad.

As far as I know the Ex travels across Canada to different cities. I remember seeing the "Ex" in Ottawa. My biggest issue with the ex these days is the price and the folks who attend are really sketchy. Similar to certain pop up carnivals that are around town. It seems like it attracts the bad crowd. Also the rides and everything else is heavily dated. Folklorama , I know for a few pavilions they have multiple events because the community has a lot of infighting and instead of agreeing and doing one.... they each do their own.
-
I think Folklorama could stand to take a few years off... to many pavilions have gone from showcasing the culture to trying to gouge people into buying over priced food and booze. The ex is also a complete dump you are not missing much or anything at all.

I do like the idea of stripping him and having Santos vs Reyes to determine the champ.... if Jon Jones comes back then just put him at HW or in super fights only..

Not to be that guy... but usually for movie sizes it's the audio that bloats up the file size so when you download at stereo it's 1.5 GB and at 15 GB it's usually multi language and 7.2 surround...
-
They are lowering the bitrate, for a non technical example..... the resolution will still be at 4k... however everything will look a bit more muddy and less sharp. Think video games .... it would be like going from a PS4 down to a PS3 level of visuals or maybe Blu-Ray down to DVD quality with upscaling. IMO most people won't notice a big difference , but for the people with crazy set ups and who are really anal on how sharp and clear everything is will notice it.

I think everyone knew his last year or so of trying to pretend he's a good guy was all just an act. I wonder how Dana White will spin this to make it look like he's not a bad guy....
