    The housing market in Winnipeg has really exploded but its a much more recent phenomenon. It may have been creeping up incrementally since the 2010's but it really hadnt started going bonkers until the pandemic. Lots of stories over the last year or so of people bidding like 30K, 40K over asking price and still losing out

    Thats not true though.  
     

    in 2010 we bought our house 30k over asking  against five other bidders and were not the highest big but the sellers recognized my last name and the side was friends with my sister in highschool.

     

    all my fiends had similar experiences over the past 10’years.

    To be honest I would rather have a physical card over a digital card considering that my smartphone doesn't read QR codes for some reason (was I supposed to install that reader?)

    Your phone does not need to read qr codes.

    Login to the site and when you QR code is on the screem take a screen shot .. Now when you need it, just bring up the picture on your phone..

    or. login from you pc, print the page with your QR code showing as a pdf and then email it to yourseld and bring it up when you need it or safe the file to your phone. 

     

  3. I’ve been away since novemeber 2019 so I thought I would reintroduce myself. 
     

    I have  lived in Winnipeg for all my life outside of 9 months in Edmonton before age 4 :)  

     

    I have loved cfl football since as far back as I can remember and have been more passionate    about them since the jets left.   I’m not nearly as attached to the jets or watch their games.   I haven’t missed listening or watching to a bomber game in years.   I have zero interest in the nfl and find the games slow and boring.  Even the super bowl which I will watch while doing something else. 
     

    I work in It infrastructure and now cyber security for a very large international company in Winnipeg and I’m opinionated, confident (overly?) and can be an *******.   I can hate what you are saying and disagree with you but it won’t really effect how I feel about you.  I can hate one post and fight with you and laugh and support something else you say. 
     

    anyhow. I’m back :)  

  4. Nah.  Call them out.   Leave them behind snd exclude them form social /work / fun events.   It’s their right to choose what medication/vaccines they take.   We shouldnt force then to take it.   
     

    They should also fully accept and agree that it’s the vaccinated’s right to not want to be around them and be at greater risk of infection and prevent them from attending these events.    If they want social events they can through them themselves if public health allows and restrict it to unvaccinated or both groups.

    I was listening to TSN radio in Ottawa a week ago and there are "media rumours" that the RedBlacks are very keen on Lapo for HC. I have no way of knowing if this is just speculation or someone with inside info. Given the disaster in Ottawa this season at QB you can bet they will be throwing a ton of money at Collaros if he's interested.

    It was also suggested on the same show that Masoli might not be ready to go until August, which may affect his next contract with whomever that might be, but he probably remains in Hamilton.

    I wonder if Lapo would want to walk into mess?  The same enviroment got him canned here.  No QB, weak oline and weak offence.  Its a recipe for disaster.    Ottawa and TO are gonna be hard pressed to attract a HC with with out a QB.  At least BC has Riley who is over priced, but you know he can play within a good offence.

    Between Collaros, Nichols, Streveler and McGuire they've got plenty of in-house options to consider, I don't think they'll bother chasing after Masoli or Arbuckle.

    I wouldn't think so either but with all our QBs being free agents they need to consider these things.. the closer they get to Free agency the more worried i will be. 

    Big Chris needs to come back.. he presence and results are part of the identity of the Team.. And i'm Leaning toward collaros vs nichols if they can do that.  He appears to be a good fit and regained his stardom that i thought he had lost.

     

    To think, they called in Drew, the now limp, willy.. **** that could have been brutal.

     

    But if Lapo is gone, the offence could look completely differnt next year. Are there any proven OCs that we can hire?

     

  7. I've always like Matt Nichols play here for the most part.

    But i'm starting to Think we need to sign Collaros instead of Matt nichols because he has better pocket pressence and can roll out and still throw downfield vs throwing it away. 

    My concern is his ability to stay healthy and whether or not we can Keep Strevler as well for that 1-2 punch.  Mcquire will hopefully turn into a lights out QB in the future.

    But do we go with Masoli, Arcbuckle if given the chance or do you go with who you know you got?

    Yeah that falls on pretty deaf ears cause we got some guys who have been here long term and want to stay here long term... Maybe Hervey shouldn't contribute to the problem and build a team the way Kyle Walters did... drafting drafting drafting and more drafting. 

    to be fair, if you suck at drafting you can't really do that. The draft is a crap shoot anyhow,  Remeber how great we were at drafting players or trading our picks for so many years?

    I think the biggest part of our "success" in the last few years is that they Kept Oshea after some initial struggles and the players really like him and the other coaches.  They have weeded out players that maybe didn't fit the characteristics they wanted off the field and brought in really good players to help strengthen the team even more (harris, Jefferson, Biggie, rose, etc etc).  This coupled with the ability to get multiple draft players playing time makes the team stronger overall.   No one wants to play on a losing team but having a good environment to play in and a good support system lets people look over some over those issues. There is a lot of community interest in the team here vs BC, TO and until recently montreal.

    Hervey may be an idiot, but you can't draft well in one year and expect the team to be instantly competitive.

    Agreed to some extent. Whereas reading the blocking is taught at the college level, Augustine is not as familiar with the tendencies of the hogs up front as Harris was and that will cause him to pause on occasion. Think of what happens when a member of the O-line is replaced as happened with Speller and Desjarlais. That appeared to throw Harris off a bit. Augustine may not be an all-star but so far he has exceeded expectations.

    Yes.. Hes doing far better then alot of people thought he would and were sad that harris was out.  There was a drop off with Augustine, but not nearly a much as i think most of us thought there would be .

    could have, but at the very end it came down to a defensive stop that didn't happen because Ritchie Hall has this prevent D that he's had for ever and the same **** happens. 

    Well.. When the offence finished the last three drives going 2 and out, its hard to put that on the defence, when the offence failed to run the clock out. 

    You either blame both or neither.
