That was unnecessary. But it really doesn't matter to me. I don't have a dog in this hunt. Russia is going to do whatever it will, the West will sabre-rattle and basically do nothing about it. That much is now obvious.

Hate being a Debbie Downer, but this is the exact sort of "loss" I expect them to take. A smashed Ukraine military and their anti-Russia President deposed in favor of someone else, 2 new "republics" along with a Crimea that is full of Russian troops... and the poison pill that the West wasn't counting on: The Sino-Russian cooperation which will make their trade and banking sanctions irrelevant and lead to an undermining of the USD as the world's reserve currency. Nations like India (who I don't think have officially condemned Russia's actions?) with their huge economy and a pair of mid-size ones like Iran and Pakistan will be all watching this very closely.
There's other pieces on the board here. And NATO/US/EU's unwillingness and inability to do a darn thing about Russia in Ukraine is the first big domino away from the Post Cold War Uni-Polar world toward the Multi-Polar world in which we now find ourselves.

I'll never get tired of watching that OT, so when I watch it again today I'll look for Woli.  It was funny watching Adeleke throwing his hands up going "WTF" as Bailey was basically uncovered.  You could also hear all the air get sucked out of that stadium on that catch, as the fans just all collectively went "Oh no, we not only need to score, we need to get two points after we score, on one of the best defenses in the past 50 years in the CFL, maybe ever".  The look on Needy B's face said it all, they knew they were done.

Never in my life do I expect to experience back to back Bombers championship; it is awesome, strange and surreal!!
