"Not dead yet!"

Take two tablets and call in the morning.

He could be Exume'd.

Ooops..wrong thread. Sorry.

We can all pray ernestly that it does not come to that.

You are a cruel person,

But if Nichols is out for any length of time, the discussion about him will be the "what if" sort as was the case with Glenn and his broken arm. If for no other reason, I hope Nichols is not dinged badly so he can give fans closure about what he is or isn't.

Start introducing her as "your first wife" and she will get the message eventually.

As an example of how effective tandem quarterbacking can be, anyone remember JJ Barnagle?

MAKE A ONE-TIME DONATION Revealed: Leaked memo shows the Republican Party’s vile strategy to respond to mass shootings with liesM&R Photography https://www.flickr.com/photos/glasgows/432945997 Written by Walter Einenkel / Daily Kos August 16, 2019 43 In the wake of the most recent mass shootings in Dayton, Ohio, and El Paso, Texas, congressional Republicans have been circulating a “memo,” on how to discuss gun violence. The Tampa Bay Times obtained this memo and report that while not shocking to most people here, the depth of cynicism and craven hypocrisy on the part of Republicans knows no bottom. According to the Times, the memo discusses the general rhetorical tricks of handling questions about closing existing gun law loopholes instead of creating more robust gun laws. But it also discusses how to very specifically move the conversations away from white supremacy and the role that right-wing propaganda seems to be playing in most domestic terrorist scenarios like the recent El Paso shootings, where the gunman told authorities that he wanted to kill Mexicans. If asked, the memo suggests that the first thing to do is to “steer the conversation away from white nationalism to an argument that implies both sides are to blame.” Subsequently, Republicans are directed to point out, falsely, that many of the mass shootings in recent years were carried out by “left-leaning” individuals. They specifically point to “El Paso shooter, the recent Colorado shooters, the Congressional baseball shooter, Congresswoman Giffords’ shooter and Antifa.” The El Paso mention is a classic right-wing typo, they meant the Dayton shooting—the right wing in our country does have a level of incompetence that one might call its brand. 0Did you know that all of those shooters were “left leaning?” I bet you didn’t. Cause they weren’t. The man that shot Arizona’s Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and a dozen other people January of 2011, while registered as a Democrat, showed motives all over the map, referencing everyone from Hillary Clinton to Adolf Hitler, and according to people around him, a general obsession with Giffords herself. The Colorado shooters seem to have been motivated, more than anything, by anger over bullying and a perverse sense of revenge. The most recent Dayton, Ohio, shooting has been the big news story for the right wing of this country because Donald Trump tweeted and told reporters that the shooter was a “fan” of Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. President Trump on Dayton shooter: "He was a fan of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, nothing to do with Trump. Nobody ever mentions that." https://cbsn.ws/2Ky1ZZO However, while the Dayton shooter may have had left “leanings,” politically, he also had a very specific history of violent fantasy not at all connected to one political ideology or another. Either way, the fact remains that domestic white nationalist terrorism is still the biggest problem when it comes to mass shooting gun violence in our country. As FBI Director Christopher McKay told a Senate Judiciary Committee last month, the majority of 2019’s domestic terrorist arrests were “motivated by some version of what you might call white supremacist violence.” The need for the Republican Party to sit on their hands to protect their gun money, dovetails nicely with their need to appeal almost exclusively to white nationalists and the people who hate being called white nationalists, but espouse most of the same positions and beliefs of white nationalists.

AKA "gas passers"

Losing Wilder is the least of the Argo problems. Running backs, even good ones are not that rare.

Don't want to even think about this possibility.

He might qualify as an NI.

Glenn doesn't have much tread on his tires any more. Bridge might be worth a looksee. Maybe. At least he knows how many downs a CFL QB has to work with.

And the Riders will not be cowed into letting him go, and that's no bull. But he might steer us wrong anyways or beef about coming here again.

Its a bit of a guessing game. If you overdose the patient, you depress or even halt respiratory and/or pulmonary functions. Usually not a good thing.

Then they didn't give you the right stuff. Its call "snowing the patient".

Exactly. When Nichols was walking the last few meters into the tunnel, he was not supporting or cradling his arm and he allowed it to swing a bit as he walked. With this evidence, it looks more like a strain or sprain which did not look to be severe. He may not start next week, but with the help of better living through chemistry, he could probably play but would have lost some strength and range of motion. If this was Reilly, we wouldn't be having this discussion at all.

We don't know but we need a definitive answer.

Good decisions are made on the basis of experience and experience comes from making bad decisions. Let's hope that Streveler has enough smarts to learn.

Aye, there's the rub.

RE: Streveler vs McGuire vs Nichols- if all Streveler was assessed as having was the ability to do line plunges and draws. he would have been gone long ago. Some have said that he cannot read defences or throw with the proper mechanics but if the coaches cannot correct that, then he ought to be cut. If the coaches cannot assess that accurately, then they ought to be gone. Damned few quarterbacks step onto the field and shine from the first day and the CFL is stocked with QBs who have had to serve their apprenticeships, sometimes for several years. The bottom line: we just do not have a large enough body of work from Streveler to know with certainty if he has the right stuff. It was inevitable that Nichols would get hurt, and, for that matter, Streveler as well, given how he runs. The coaches are tasked with making sure they have contingency plans, and if they do not, that does not inspire confidence. Streveler needs time to get over his opening night jitters and I do not think he has been given that as yet. Now we may be in a sink or swim scenario.

Bet on it.
