Mark F Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 this could also go in the "good news" thread. Boris Johnson is one of the candidates for PM of Britain. Quote Boris Johnson is to go on trial for allegedly “lying and misleading the British public” about the consequences of Brexit. A judge summonsed the Conservative MP to appear in court after a member of the public launched a private prosecution over claims that the cost of EU membership was £350m a week. Lawyers representing 29-year-old Marcus Ball lodged a private prosecution against Mr Johnson at after he raised more than £200,000 through crowdfunding campaigns. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/boris-johnson-trial-brexit-court-lying-prosecution-nhs-vote-leave-a8934451.html?utm_source=reddit.com Wideleft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to watch an NFL produced video on the top 10 fastest players of all time recently, they had 10 minutes of actual player clips along with 20 minutes of regurgitation and explicating by various sports commentators, ex-players and other random no-name celebrities. Such utter bullshlit. Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such utter bullshlit. I guess it was about 15 years ago when one of the Winnipeg AM stations (CFRW?) tried the all-sports format, but all they did was rebroadcast one of the FAN networks out of Toronto. The NFL to CFL content was probably close to 20:1 in favour of the NFL. A good chunk of the CFL discussion was wondering why the Ottawa Roughriders failed/were failing (can't remember exactly). Maybe, just maybe part of the problem was that they didn't actually talk about the CFL. Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only Brown had some realization that he is nowhere near as good a commentator as he was a player, he wouldn't come across as such an arrogant ass. I have the utmost respect for Irving and Tait, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
