    Diversity of the CFL. The CFL is not speaking for the country. 

    True, but the message has to be collectively delivered by a number of organizations of different types, whether it has to do with sports, education, etc. It's not enough to make up a special day and have the prime minister make a speech or deliver apologies. It has to come from below as well.

    Whatever counts

  2. If you don't think Trump is racist, then what do you have to to say about his refusal to rent apartments to people of colour back in the 70s? What about his insistence that the group of black and brown men accused of raping and murdering that white women were guilty all these years later, even after they were exonerated by DNA? Anyone who claims he is not racist is lying or willfully blind.

    First will be to collect all the data and facts, then the impeachment process will begin. The Senate won't impeach Trump, though. 

    Yeah, I doubt the Senate would impeach Trump. Still, Trump has admitted that a Democratic House will. He won't be in the least happy about it, even if its much ado about nothing.

    Bridge has been hopeless all year and they haven't made a move but Zach gets his bell rung, they do this and we're supposed to think Collaros is ok?

    It's possible, but Zach's bell ring meant another game for Bridge to play...another game in which Bridge did nothing. I think it was the final straw.

    you think Tate is going to be able to play coming in so recently? He does nothing for the Riders at all. 

    Do you mean whether he will actually dress, or whether he will produce? If the later, he has a shot at being somewhat better than Bridge. Bridge was bad enough that even a cold QB outplay him. Not to say Tate will do much either...

    Not really, you were implying that it would be injuries holding the Riders back. The reason the Riders are held back is because they don't have an offense. You don't win Grey Cups without one facet of a team. 

    Your team is smoke and mirrors, just accept that fact and it will be a lot less painful when the Bombers kick your ass in the playoffs and send you all back to your hovels to cry all winter long. 

    You're looking way too far into his comment. He said as much that Winnipeg has a more talented team than the Riders, which in addition to health, implies that Winnipeg will firmly beat the Riders. I don't think you are capable of agreeing with a Rider fan; you always nitpick details when talking to them.

    Who cares?  Those teams are done.

    Do you celebrate being taller than children?

    Because what I'm saying is, if our offence was worse than those teams, we wouldn't be 12-6. Our offence has at least something to do with our success, even if most of it hasn't. Not trying to claim it's a spectacular offence. It completely sputtered against you guys in that last game.

    That’s not true. Turnovers are skill based, converting them into touchdowns is largely not. Having the QB fumble the ball on the 1 and having a defender pick it up isn’t largely random?

    Those types of plays are easy, but not all defensive TDs are that easy; longer defensive TDs require good blocking. Plenty of fumbles/interceptions account to wasted drives if they aren't cashed in right away.

    Ridiculous!!!

    Toronto and Montreal easily have worse offences. I mean, seriously, they are 4-12 and 3-13. I know our D is the main cause of our record, but without the occasional boosts in our offence, we wouldn't be 11-6.

    And their offence is the worst in the league. 

    Not the worse, or even remotely close to second worst with Collaros as QB (we're 5th in points for, so hardly near the top, however), even with our stinker against you guys. With Bridge/Watford, you might have a point, however.
