  1. I knew an Aussie who served there. The unit refused to go out on patrol or bivouac with Americans, as they were stupid, careless, racist, arrogant and often stoned. They were dumb enough to go on patrol with lit cigarettes in their mouths, day or night and call to each other. The Aussies would not bed down until an hour after sunset, and move out before dawn. Only half the unit would sleep at a time. They had little respect for the Yanks had very few casualties compared to them. The Aussies saw some horrific torturing by the US troops.
  2. Kinda hard to run in a 8x10 room.
  3. That's what happens when a guy doesn't pay his penis tax. And its a good thing.
  4. Fenner played well on occasion but got lit up more than one game. His day has come and gone.
  5. *GASP* When did this happen?
  6. If he did, it would be following a very common script: a premier athlete who is aging but fears losing that competitive edge and everything that comes with it, turns to PEDs to extend or enhance his/her career.
  7. According to 1290 radio this morning, Streveler was still walking with a very pronounced limp today, and the speculation was that he would probably dress on Sunday but very unlikely to play.
  8. Starting to be some weird things going on here.
  9. Hence my concerns,
  10. It will be interesting to see how Royce rolls. And whether we need Moe linebackers.
  11. What concerns me is that he sort of interned under LaPolice, and O'Shea who have not been ideal mentors.
  12. If that is the truth.
  13. Job losses in the petroleum industry was predicted almost 20 years ago and little was done to offset it. The economy was mismanaged for decades and the chickens finally came home to roost. Kenney is expecting to have someone wave a wand and restore the good days.
  14. The Encana announcement will send shock waves through the Calgary economic scene, and people will probably hunker down even more and watch their pennies closely. There isn't going to be a turnaround for the Alberta economy any time soon, no matter how long or hard Kenney whines.
  15. Harris has been the best RB in the league for a couple-three years, import or domestic. Pity that it has come to this stain on his reputation.
  16. And I am of the opinion that Hervey ought to have been fired as well. He really hamstrung the Lions with his personnel decisions.
  17. Maybe not. The Stamps offence didn't fade all that much, considering the loss of talent, so maybe Claybrooks was the beneficiary of the assembled talent.
  18. You really don't want to do that- the coffee cards are actually worth something and the coffee is darned good.
  19. I would bet that they were accepting Canadian Tire money for tickets in both Toronto and Vancouver.
  20. And not all masking agents are as effective, or taken as directed. We have no way of knowing but the odds are against Harris.
  21. Hmmm...I kinda thought that the Bomber performances were darned real, and O'Shea's comment that they are on the road for three games is not reassuring, given the team's road record in the last half of the season.
  22. We cannot conclusively determine if Harris was guilty of taking a PED or not, but if you look back at all the athletes who tested positive for PEDs or were identified by first-hand information as using, pretty much all of these were ultimately proven by self-admission or subsequent events to have been dabbling. Ergo, the probability is that Harris done did it. Suck it up, buttercup.
  23. Still weird, but something you can recount for many years.
  24. The pundits give a slight edge to the Stamps due to their passing game and the Bombers' porous pass defence. So, it looks like the Bomber running game vs the Stamps' passing. I do not expect the Bomber front seven to apply much pressure to Mitchell, and that could be decisive.
  25. We shall see. O'Shea's tenure here may be like a mathematical asymptote.
