    Covid-19

    You’re jumping the gun - they were just saying the actual number of cases is like 20-40 million based on the lack of testing

    Covid-19

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/covid-surgery-delay-unintended-consequences-1.5629360 fallout from lockdown is just starting - id never support a gong show like the southern states but we needed to relax some facets of lockdown earlier in Canada more of the general population will die from lockdown than covid
  3. Well umm... he wouldn't have signed here if we wanted to play on a contender... so maybe that's why he didn't - not greed.
  4. Well teams don't sign guys if they're not planning on having a season...
  5. Jarious Jackson could have been the main problem - Jennings really tanked when JJ took over as OC... Reilly looked very mortal
  6. My fave non-bomber is still Conredge Holloway Always cheered for Kevin Glenn as frustrating as that was... Vernon Adams is my current non-bomber - mostly from the KJ connection though
  7. Well he’s not all bad then - Campbell is a huge upgrade
  8. It’s on 3down Something like ‘gotta say it - men shouldn’t get with men and women shouldn’t be with women - but that’s just me’ you shouldn’t be cut over that - apologize and community day or something
  9. Wow we finally took the gloves off... about time
  10. It’s safe to say all briefings stopped in early 2017 when they realized he was a Russian agent
  11. He’s no Harold Ballard dontcha know...
  12. Yeah I guess they would be worried that another player would test positives and the whole team will die just like the Ottawa senators - oh wait no one else got sick but the point remains... better safe than sorry
  13. Yeah he’s been holding back the CFL since 1987... what a jerk... we need to get rid of that scourge and bring in any one of the long list of people waiting to buy a CFL team... I mean the Lions have only won the grey cup three times since he started bleeding them dry - now they’re stuck with a has been like Mike Reilly
  14. Putin still has the pee-pee tape.
  15. NHL is not cancelling the season - too much money would be lost
  16. Braley had a good point that fewer fans basically means teams are losing $10 million instead of $20-30 million... Any brand has to try and stay in the spotlight - somehow... to simply back away for a full season while all the other sports leagues are opening up just seems like the death knell for the league Setting a league start date and showing your market and potential govt funders that you are giving it a real shot with a slogan like 'Canada makes it work' or something hokey/nationalistic... then even if there's a second wave and you have to shut it down - THEN you go ask Canada to pick up the rest of the tab Right now, the CFL has given people the sense that they were ready to call the season off and just take govt money from the start - the optics aren't great. I still say that the CFL likely has a plan and would have announced something but the execs are twisting and turning trying to find a way to make Toronto a hub - that's the delay imo.
  17. Yeah but he can pull a bus. Ssooo he'll probably let it slide.
  18. A typical negative know it all dr cfl post ... of course the cfl is working on a plan and of course that takes positive cases into account - one would assume they are using e same IR idea as nfl and plastic visors in face masks We have already heard about hub cities etc - by sept social distancing will be even more relaxed in Canada and we will be able to get 5-10k people in an outdoor stadium but for guys saying ‘just shut it down for a year’ - that stance just seems naive
  19. So a league that is financially treading water can just take a year off... okey dokey annouce a labour day start and bust your ass to make it work - don’t announce nothing and sit there hemming and hawing

    My lame attempts at stating facts - got it.

    Covid-19

    Well in one response you accuse me of conflating two different issues and then say I should be upset about wealth tax evasion... Ontario and Quebec transferred elderly patients from hospitals to care homes at the beginning of the lockdown and this inflated our numbers - that is not a pizzagate 5G conspiracy it’s just a basic fact - that in turn overwhelmed several care homes who were informed not to transfer patients back to hospitals - again a fact you obviously have a job where you are getting paid to stay home so of course you’re fine with a cautious approach that is bankrupting future generations...

    I thought it wasn’t just a nursing home problem

    Covid-19

    Yes I understand the need to 'flatten the curve'... we did it - but instead we overwhelmed the nursing home system accidentally at least in Ontario and Quebec I'm not sure how long you think we need to take to prepare the health care system... if we haven't got our **** together by now then we never will. Maybe some people have the luxury of living off the govt and always ready to have a free vacation if we shut down... but most I know don't.

    Covid-19

    I’m a pretty left wing antifa guy... but what happens if the death rate does not rise in states with ‘covid spikes’ - I look at Canada and our covid rules are a gong show but we are not seeing a spike in deaths or anything Right or wrong this will be another ‘flu’ next winter
