    Justin Medlock has made 58 consecutive field goals from inside the 40 yard line. Based on my research, it appears as though Paul McCallum holds the CFL record with 59 consecutive field goals in

I remember going to the game with my Dad and it was like watching a video game.... every huge long bomb connected that night. 

That was a fun game to be at...  crowd was nuts

I want to say I listened to that game on CJOB while camping at Big Whiteshell, but I'm not 100% sure. One of the greatest shames in pro sports is that there is no video of that game, other than a CKND highlight pack. I don't even think CJOB has the logger tapes from that night. Man oh man, what a shame.

It was remarkable. Pass after pass complete. Huge gains and celebrations. 

And the crowd simply ate it up...

But according to some here he's not an elite qb.

Damn right, we did. It was surreal and I remember thinking that the slaughter cannot keep going like this.

FYI: Did you know that of the 10 worst weather events in Canadian recorded history, five of them happened in the Calgary area? Weird. Maybe karma?

Probably due to BC pushing their bullshit over the mountains.

The mountains are close by & they influence the weather. 17to85 would agree as he used to live in an area called Parkland. I live nearby in Lake Bonavista SE.  I live in the deep south of Calgary maybe 25-30 klms from the areas that always get hit by hail & nasty storms. The NE & NW parts of the city get a lot more bad weather than we do as they are almost in the foothills & are up higher than we are. We like to call ourselves "The Sunny South". The day the NE got pounded by hail in June, we could see the black clouds & hear some of the thunder in the distance but it never rained here. Not to say we don't get bad weather as we do. I've seen clouds spinning over my house a few times & we've got hail, heavy rain where 

I'd say it's more about karma for all the conservative redneck assholes in this province....

Never lived in parkland. But yeah being in the deep south we rarely get the stupid hail that the north part of the city gets. Just the right geography to form hail storms up there.

I know you lived in the Deep South. I thought it was Parkland.

Traded to the Marlins.

It's a good start. But why would anyone refuse to take a Covid test?

For example, why would anybody support that fake president?

Getting jabbed in the brain is not particularly appealing to many people. However, if I was getting paid millions, I would never refuse whatever the heck they told me to do.

?? Have you had the test done? It's a 5 second procedure where they swab your tonsils on the left and on the right. Done. It was the least invasive thing I could possibly imagine. I was in and out of that place (re-purposed drive-through car wash bay) in less than 15 minutes.

I get your point, but this is a slippery slope to declare you'd do anything for millions of dollars.

Well, what a great deal. Drive through, get your car washed, and a tonsil swab at the same time. 🤪

However, here, in Windsor, it is a nose swab. It does not take long like you say. One second for each poke of the swab up your nostril. It is not a pleasant experience as it does reach way up there where they suspect your brain is. 
I imagine Trump’s tests are more in line as to what you had done, as I suspect they’d be poking forever to find his brain.
