I like Woli a lot but he's the 6th option in our offence no matter where we put the hashmarks. He's great at what he does and what we need him for but I don't understand the narrative that he is chronically under utilized in an offence that boasts 4 receivers that are better than him.

USFL attendance opening weekend. Liam Dobson will be here by the beginning of TC. Looks like less than a thousand people. They are claiming much higher attendance but the eyeball test is what I go by. There are almost as many players as fans. You guys are way overestimating the effect of the hashmark move.

Maybe..but his injuries are in many ways more physically hampering than Collaros's. There was never any question about whether Collaros could play the game anymore, the question was/is for how long. Saunders on otoh is the opposite. However, you are correct that both could be classified as reclamation projects of sorts. I just think Saunders will have a tougher time getting back to a high level.

Yea..i think Adugosi is flying under the radar a bit. Bombers really like him he was just very raw. If he has worked hard on polishing his game he could be a factor.

Waiting for changes in the CBA. If we get 2018 Jalen it's a big signing. I am not overly optimistic but i am hopeful.

Not a big secret that he was coming back but it's nice that it's official now. Just like last year, when he signed late in the offseason, it is great to have our returner position entrenched. If he has a bounce back season health wise this is a big signing for us. Dude can flip a field as good as anyone in this league.

Sure, had he not just tabled a budget that basically undoes everything the recent interest hikes were meant to do. Government spending policy is also a huge factor in inflation and the new budget is a massive fail on that front. I will heartily applaud Trudeau when interest rates are back between 1-3% and our housing is no longer in a hyper-inflationary crisis. I don't really care who the government is that does it, I just care that it gets done. This is not the time for massive government stimulus. That is stupid economic policy at this point and time.

I am not defending Pierre Polievre. Make no mistake about that. I am yet to see any form of policy direction from him. I am simply stating that suggesting inflation has nothing to do with governmental policy is nonsense. Certainly inflation would be higher than normal right now, but 5.7% is avoidable and does not need to be happening right now. The Bank of Canada needs to raise interest rates, and get this under control and our government needs to mandate them to do so. Housing stock and prices need some governmental policy as well to get rid of the hyper inflation there and that resonates with a lot of voters right now. An interesting read whether you agree with the content or not; https://forgetthebox.net/canadas-real-estate-market-is-in-hyperinflation-202108311/#:~:text=Hyperinflation in the housing market,market and increasing homelessness further.

It is and it isn't. It is ignorant to suggest that government can't help offset inflation. Throwing your hands up in the air. keeping low interest rates, while increasing taxes, and doing nothing about a hyper inflated real estate market is not exactly great governmental financial policy. https://financialpost.com/opinion/the-bank-of-canada-needs-to-get-serious-about-inflation

Blissfully unaware describes about 75% of voters unfortunately. Voters respond to catch phrases, and believe what they read in the media and the media likes to get a change in government every so often so that they have fresh material to write about. People don't give a fig about why inflation is high, they want action from the government. Yes, inflation is high in other parts of the world, maybe even worse than here, but the same isn't true with housing cost rises and other countries are not producers like we are. Blaming inflation entirely on the rest of the world is a cop out.

Bombers signed Carlton Adugosi. Was wondering why they hadn't re-signed him, glad they did.

I think that PP could win an election against Trudeau, and that's not a reflection on the voters of Canada, that's a reflection on the Liberal party and it's policies right now. Pierre Polievre will bring the far right...no doubt about it...but there is also a large faction of the centre of the political spectrum just waiting for a reason to dump Trudeau. I know that Liberals on here think that's crazy talk but it really isn't. The Liberals have been barely holding on for two elections now against leaders of the CPC that are as inspiring as milque toast. Love him or hate him, Pierre will talk a much better game to the disenchanted than Scheer or O'Toole. That being said, I really hope that the CPC elects Charest. He is a guy that could really drive a stake through the heart of the Liberals. I look at the numbers in Alberta, and although the PPC did steal a lot of CPC vote, they were a non-factor in the outcome of the election in that province for the most part. In Ontario, the PPC made a big difference but I suspect that the PPC support there was more of a mixed bag. May still have been enough to pull out 7-8 more seats for the CPC but that's about it. Having said that, if you add 7-8 seats to the CPC and you take 7-8 away from the Liberals it would have made life really difficult for Trudeau...not that it isn't already.

If true the Liberals need to be very concerned about Pollievre because he will bring those voters to the CPC. That, and voter fatigue with Trudeau could be trouble for the Liberals if they run Trudeau again. I was not aware that the PPC had any impact at all...and lets face it 75% of the PPC are hard right CPC and Libretarians.

I agree. The PPC did not cost the CPC a single seat, it just cost them a few % points in seats they won easily anyway.

Saying, or doing, stupid things hasn't hurt Trudeau that much. He has been the poster boy for putting his foot in his mouth. Just saying. That being said, I don't believe Pollievre can win an election without going more to the middle of the political spectrum.

Got a sweet deal on a new lease to re-open. Nice to see the boys at FB hospitality getting back to work.

You might be familiar with his older and much more famous brother Danke. Looks like a Lawler style receiver. Hopefully he is as good.

Depends....were you trying to be a ******? If so then yes you did it right. You sure like to attack people that don't share your political ideologies but scream murder when they say anything that offends your sensibilities. Grow up man. I believe that both sides of the political system in the US is full of corruption. I think the majority of people probably do. I couldn't give a rats fig if their president is named Trump or Biden, I have no horse in the race. I just think it's comical to the point of being absurd how those who are invested in it will twist the facts to their belief systems and it DEFINITELY goes both ways. Every Republican is a liar and every Democrat tells the truth and vice versa is the most idiotic thing I've ever heard.

Glad he is gone. Putin was enamored by him.

Whatever man. Believe what you want to believe and attack the motives of those who disagree. Just garbage. That's for sure. I agree. CNN is not nearly as bad as FOX, and Tucker Carlson is a clown. Yea, when Trump started spouting his crazy and they saw the ratings when they reported it, it went off the deep end after that. True....unfortunate...but true.

Problem is that most people are judging the facts they want to hear according to their own biases because that is how they are now presented. It is highly ignorant for anyone to quote CNN or Bloomberg as being more credible than Fox or the New York Post. BS runs deep on both sides of America's political scene. To say otherwise would be straight up gaslighting.

Lol. The people of Haiti aren't as optimistic about her honesty as you are.

Millions of dollars missing from the Clinton Foundation for one. We will have to see how far down the rabbit hole we get I suppose but Biden sure looks like he has got some explaining to do. https://www.maciverinstitute.com/2022/03/the-hunter-biden-story-was-always-about-joes-corruption/

Yes, all of that is true, but let's be real, if the Dems don't nominate and run the ultra corrupt and ultra dislikeable Clinton candidate they probably could have/should have overcome all of that. Her very presence stoked the fire that fed Trump's support. Laugh if you want, but Trump did win the election and not every voter he had was mysoginistic, racist or selfish....a lot of them just really didn't like anything about Hilary or what she stands for and really didn't understand what they were getting themselves into.

Agreed. The list of draft busts is littered with speed demons and freakish athletes who unfortunately could not run routes, catch, or just had a 2 cent brain. The measurables are all fine and dandy, but you don't get paid for your ability to dunk Oreos....as impressive as that is to watch.
