  1. Ripper, I agree with you to an extent. That was a very hard hit, but in re-watching it with the available video from TSN, it was not at all certain that it was a deliberate head shot. It may have been, but the available evidence does not confirm that. I am against "intent to injure" but football is a violent sport and sometimes it is hard to differentiate between intentional and accidental. If there is a deliberate head shot, then the offender should be tossed, fined and suspended.
  2. Wild may be very fit and experienced but he is a good player. However Santos-Knox has been little short of great this year playing beside Mr. Grandmont. Doubtless, Jovan has learned a lot and would be missed if he does not play against Cowgary.
  3. Ian Wild did not look all that good when he was in. He and Sayles were targeted and victimized. Here's hoping that Santos-Knox will be back for next Sunday.
  4. You're welcome, Scorch, but expect verbal abuse and questioning your parentage, intellect, and sexual preferences starting tomorrow.
  5. I lived in Regina for three years and the only time the water was drinkable was mid-winter.
  6. Lions playing as if they expect to lose.
  7. I would bet Wally will be retained as a consultant of sorts.
  8. Things not going well for the Lions in this cat fight.
  9. With Collaros out of the picture, it looks to come down to the Bomber O-line vs the Rider front 7. I expect the Riders to blitz the heck out of Nichols and no doubt LaPolice has planned for that. Riders look to be most vulnerable up the middle as neither Hurl nor Judge are all-stars.
  10. How the heck are the Riders with a gibbled up quarterback and no decent backup favoured by 2.5 points??
  11. Win or lose, I am hoping for a game that will be talked about for time to come as a classic take-no-prisoners game. Bragging rights for the next 7 months are on the line. Go Big Blue! A blowout of the Risers would not be a classic game, but I'll take it.
  12. Andrew Harris is going to be in a pivotal role tomorrow, one way or another.
  13. Any games subsequent to a Bomber win tomorrow will seem anti-climactic. Even the Grey Cup game.
  14. These same potential customers chose to live in Saskatchewan, so they are obviously delusional and therefore easy marks.
  15. Just set up an booze IV with a large-bore needle and a catheter with a bag and you are set for the day.
  16. Did you hear about the vulture who was stopped when trying to board a plane with two dead raccoons because he was allowed only one carrion?
  17. The forecast for gametime in Regina, which ought to be pretty accurate, is for mainly sunny and a high of -9. Looks like a day which will lend itself to the running and short passing game.
  18. No question that the Sessions firing was intended to impede or halt the investigation into Trump's affairs and the affairs of his family. There may be a much larger game afoot here from the Russians. Trump is heavily indebted to the Russian mob and Saudi royal family and he has always placed his welfare above that of others, even his son Don Junior. Trump has probably been a Russian asset since the early 2000's when he was on the verge of his biggest bankruptcy. The banks in North America and Europe would no longer touch him and he was desperate. Enter the Russian mob/big business/government. Eric Margolis, the noted reporter who has been watching the Russian and Asian political scene for some 30 years, maintains that the Russians have been far more successful in penetrating the American and British intelligence and political machinery than the CIA or MI6 ever were in accessing the Russian equivalents. Russia has succeeded in influencing American foreign policy beyond their wildest dreams, but their real endgame may be to destroy American societal cohesion and set the different factions at each others' throats. Trumps denigration of his intelligence community and discounting of their advice is another step in undermining trust in these institutions while he looks the others way. The prime and recent example of the hither-to respected FBI being ordered "investigate" the allegations against Kavanaugh and then being manipulated so as to produce an exculpatory report on Kavanaugh with them interviewing Kavanaugh, Dr, Ford, Kavanaugh's best friend or either of the other two women who came forward, has to undermine Americans' trust of even the FBI. All this is likely intended to produce exactly what has happened- fatalism on the part of voters that no matter how or if they vote, it produce no positive change. Then, if there is no trust in democracy, all that is needed is for a semi-charismatic leader to step forward with a simplistic "plan" and extravagant promises and voila! we have Germany at the end of the Weimar Republic. America then either becomes a thinly disguised dictatorship or a helpless giant ripe for the picking.
  19. From 3downnation: Alouettes talking to potential general managers in case they fire Kavis Reed Posted on November 6, 2018 by Justin Dunk // 0 Comments Montreal Alouettes president Patrick Boivin refused to discuss the status of anyone in the Als football operations department but that hasn’t kept the organization from having conversations with potential general managers. Sources say the Alouettes have spoken to multiple people regarding the GM position while Kavis Reed continues to work in the role – orchestrating two trades at the deadline while re-signing quarterbacks Antonio Pipkin, Vernon Adams and Jeff Mathews recently – and Boivin remains mum on his future
  20. That egregious failure had to be more on Popp than Trestman. You cannot make chicken soup out of chicken feathers.
