GCn20 predicting that the Lions will fold mid-season right before the playoffs and Calgary will be awarded a win by default in week 20 to give them 2nd place over Edmonton. Bold call!

From the CFL Rule book: Article 7 – Dress Code A team is required to dress in a professional manner and shall be subject to penalty if a player fails to comply with the following requirements: (a) The team jersey shall be tucked inside the top of the pants and shall remain tucked in throughout the game. If the jersey is pulled out during the game, the player shall be required to tuck it in during a break in the play. (b) Uniform stockings shall be worn in such manner that no part of the player’s knee or leg is exposed. (c) Protective gear shall be worn underneath the team jersey, pants and stockings. When a short-sleeved jersey is worn, the color of protective gear on the elbow or lower arm shall be the same as one of the basic colors of the team. (d) The team uniform shall not be cut away or altered in any manner whatsoever. (e) White tape may be used on wrists and hands, but tape used on stockings or any part of the uniform shall be the same color as the uniform or equipment it covers. (f) Shoes of a standard football design, with appropriate football cleating, that have not been altered, deliberately or otherwise, in any manner and judged suitable by the Referee for the playing surface, may be used. Sneaker type shoes with no cleating may also be used PENALTY: L10 PBD The offending player is required to leave the game for a minimum of three plays and shall not be permitted to return until the dress code violation has been remedied. Substitution for the player is allowed.

2 predictions: 1. Someone will irk me by putting in predicted regular season records for all the teams, but the total wins and losses won’t match up. 2.

I am more compassionate than you. If I saw a Leaf fan whose face was on fire I would beat it out.

You know training camp is boring when there are less fights breaking out in practice between guys on the same team over stupid stuff and short tempers than the numbers of fights over stupid stuff breaking out on this forum. And his real name is George Santos!

These guys from BC might like a word: https://www.cfl.ca/games/1594/winnipeg-blue-bombers-vs-bc-lions/#boxscore-home

Only the third series ever to be a sweep with all four games won by a single goal. Habs-Sabres in 1993 (3OT games, all 4-3 score) and Anaheim-Detroit in 2003 (with a double OT and an OT game). Jets-Oilers was tight too, with three OT wins (one in triple OT) and the Jets win 4-1 but with 2 empty netters in that one.

Actually that is the most likely scenario, him or Wolitarsky if we have a “Nationalized American” declared elsewhere that allows us the ration flexibility. But I’d say Bailey is the first to sit of the receiving corps if Agudosi just shows too much to sit.

FIFY

Unless you don’t plan to rent a car. Bit of a drive to get there.

Not sure. That would be a question for Pallister.

Just to be clear, she was absent during a lot of that time due to a long-term personal medical issue that was not much reported in the media. Not saying this excuses every poor decision she has or has not made, but the “ducking the job” narrative is not completely fair.

CFL bringing back the All-Star Game and Winnipeg is hosting?

Ricky Williams?

I envision an expansion plan to 36 eventually. Quebec City would actually make sense as a relocation for Arizona since the league wants the big expansion dollars and Houston, Atlanta, Kansas City and maybe Salt Lake City would have more well-heeled owners in bigger media markets. 6 divisions of 6 teams each, top 2 in each division and 4 wild card per conference makes 20 teams in the playoffs. First round is best of 3 play-in with the wild card teams, then 1-8 ranked match-ups from there, best of 7. 82 game schedule, 2 games against every non-divisional opponent (60 total), 4 or 5 against divisional opponents (22 games total). Just spitballing here.

The issue is that OSH gets a pass on the site, yet there was bellyaching about the lack of news from reporters, who are shut out by O’Shea’s cone of silence just the same.

I never saw the two-handed slash delivered to Dreisaitl (out of country so video highlights harder to come by), but this is too funny not to share even if out of context.

Winning covers up a fair amount of character imperfections (not that OSH has any - he was cool, calm and collected before 2019 even though some called for his head back then). Luckily Wade was patient and we reaped the benefits.

Anyone else wondering if the Bombers would ever consider running a six-pack receiving set any time this year? And who among Wolitarsky, Bailey, Agudosi, BOLO. Grant, or even McCrae, Augustine, or Oliviera would still not get in the last 3 spots in the top 6 formation?

Unfortunately for you, having a name starting with “GC” and posting in the politics threads here is like having the actual name “Karen” and going shopping.

It’s the internet. There’s always a reason to complain! 😁

And while you are at it, still waiting to hear your “smoking gun” news that will destroy Wab Kinew. Time to answer some direct questions, please and thank you.
