Sweden and South Dakota say hello.

Anything to do with planting trees, should be considered an essential service - no questions asked. COVID 19 should not be a reason to forget about the health of the planet.

Sanchez, Ferri, Cox....there were a lot of douchebags on the Als teams of the 00s.

Well, they’re all fired then!

But apparently we do. Lots of people can't manage to do the right thing on their own.

A nurse explaining the situation she just returned from and pleading people to stay home! It’s not comfortable to watch, but it is real.

Philion was 100% a piece of ****, but I'll never be able to forgive Davis lifting his leg and pretending to pee like a dog on Khari after a sack.....that's something that will live with me forever. Those confident-for-no-reason Riders teams of the early 00s sickened me. But no question, the Als teams of the same era are right up there for me. Don Matthews fills a team with personalities just like his = everyone's a piece of ****.

I forgot how much I hated Sanchez as a player. Just a total ass, who played dirty. Thankfully he never played for the bombers. That kickoff from the oppositions 40 or whatever was pretty awesome too. I forgot about that. Should have just tried for an onside kick rather then going for the TD...

More and more, I'm leaning toward scrapping the 2020 season. The border isn't going to be open in time for the US players to get up here, and they aren't going to allow fans for at least a year, if not more....and the CFL isn't a league that can get by without fans in attendance. At this point, I think we'd be lucky to only lose 1 season...

She's not wrong...

Shuffles feet, look both ways before wading into the fray....ahem: South Dakota, with with a smaller population than Manitoba (850 K) has over 1000 cases of COVID 19. Public orders and physical distancing laws? None. A meat packing plant has shut down, due to numerous COVID 19 cases amongst their employees.

Manitoba reports 5th #COVID19 related death. Woman in her 60s from Prairie Mountain Health Region. Two new probable cases reported, bringing the total to 246. Two former probable cases now ruled as negative. More Manitoba #COVID19 stats: - 132 active cases. - 9 in hospital (4 in ICU) - 108 recovered - 5 deaths - 17,902 total tests conducted at Cadham Provincial Lab, 305 yesterday.

Yup I agree. And in normal sane times I get your point about moderates. However this is no longer about politics and differing perspectives that have levels of merit on their own. This is about a madman surrounded by people cut from the similar ilk. Therefore I’m starting to question people who consider themselves moderates who haven’t made up their minds yet. I look at them the same way my dog looks at me when it’s not understanding what I’m doing.

I agree. And in this instance, China chose not to do its part. It'd be great if WHO officials were able to go kick down doors and get the right and accurate information from shadier regimes but I don't think that's the case. The WHO is no doubt without controversy but I'm quite sure it doesn't have some blanket authority to do whatever it wants vis a vis its mandate.

They are an agency of the United Nations, with over 190 countries as member states, each with their own delegates. The idea is to pool knowledge and expertise, share information and collaborate towards common goals. I'm not sure it's about authority to demand information so much as an expectation to receive information, and accurate information at that. The WHO is not without controversy, and like any government agency they are only as good as the people that run them, but member states need to play their parts and be forthcoming with their statistics rather than trying to save face by fudging numbers

Scathing...

There is no way kelly Anne is this stupid. It shows how stupid she thinks trumps base is.

There are responsible ways to do this. I have been self isolating for almost a month now because I can. I will be self isolating for two weeks prior to leaving, and for two weeks once I arrive there. Don't know why I'm even discussing this because I'm not going until the middle of May anyway but should the same restrictions be in place I will be making no extra trips or stops anywhere or along the way. A well thought out plan and diligence can limit the exposure to no one. I pay for my gas at the pumps. I pack my own food and bring it because Thompson is way too expensive to shop. I have a freezer full of food already there so I just need some pantry items and produce, the same as I would at home in Winnipeg. Beer? Wine? I make my own.

Some info from 100 years ago: During the Spanish flu epidemic, Manitoba’s Mennonite population ignored social distancing and group size guidelines. In the end, their death was twice the provincial average. (U of M study) That is staggering, especially when you consider that the vast majority of them lived on farms.

what is sinister is the campaign and the origins of it are not the will of the people... they are being manipulated by those that have no interest in the lives at stake, only in their hedge fund portfolios...

Perhaps they can front me....

One of my favourite games is this game vs Montreal in summer 2005 when we had an AWFUL team that started 0-4 (mostly because Glenn was injured and Tee Martin was playing and Kamau/Wane McGarity were dropping everything). Stanford Samuels (Bombers DB) was a member of OB.com back then (SammySam), and he came on and was telling to make sure we didn't miss the game that week vs the Als, because they had been scheming for that game in particular since the offseason, and they had some special stuff planned. Sure enough the Bombers jumped out to a huge 20 point lead, and also sure enough, the Bombers pissed away that lead, and needed some patented last second magic from Milt Stegall to get the win. It was a hell of a game and a hell of a night. They used to show it on Classic Canada all the time...

Another useless start to a press conference that has nothing to do with the pandemic from the most useless human being on the planet

One of them is dead right? One down one to go.

mr 78% richard karikari. none worse then ed philion though.

It wouldn't feel right watching any cfl teams playing for the cup in the states.

I got a call from the Bombers couple days ago and the lady told me they are planning on starting the season on July 1st as of right now. She did also indicate that anything could happen before that lol! I guess they know as much as anyone else.

Yup. South Dakota is getting almost as many new cases per day than we have active. With a much smaller population.

Philion for me for sure.

Don't forget that sack of french s*** Ed Philion. The guy pretty much ended Khari's career.

When I needed it most, Donald sent me money. He didnt have to do that. He's wealthy and he wanted to help. What have the democrats done to help me? Health Care? Gun Control? Living Wage? Nah, Donald sent me $1200 once. All hail the king.

They also can't afford to not receive the 40+ million from TSN

I like the UN on paper; Canada's legacy as a peace keeping nation was a great source of national pride as a youngster. Sadly, the UN is toothless when it comes to things like this... a stern finger wagging accomplishes nothing in the face of tight-lipped (or brain-dead) governments. Where is Batman crossing international borders to commit espionage for the greater good when you need him?

Read a tweet some days ago that simply stated: 'Someday we will be reading his obituary'.

Of course Trump was bragging about his tremendous relationship with the Chinese Premier......well, at least, back when he was trying for a bigly trade deal..... Of course the xenophobic stuff always plays well with his brainwashed base....

Have they not been living at this 'cottage' since 2015?

Yeah. I feel tho this has been around longer than they say.. Like all winter and i think besides low testing numbers, i wonder if our very extreme weather plays a role in keeping this in check here.. We go from minus 40 to plus 40.. Our bodies are conditioned to deal with truly extreme temperatures. Honestly ive long thought that if we all got tested here it would show that most of us have this or have had it.. It just doesn't effect us as much as other places. Our small spread out population helps also

Somebody needs to tell the idiot in chief that there is always a tweet, today he is blasting those lying and treacherous Chinese, guess the tweet from January was another lie

Tombstone Todd Krenbrink as the first pick in the 03 draft made me go "Ooooof", and somehow I don't even remember the name Mike Morris from the 09 draft.....some crazy stuff in there that just goes to show you the CFL draft is, at best, a complete crap shoot.

Walker will sign any year now,I can feel it!

Another good article by Ed Tait. https://www.bluebombers.com/2020/04/14/bombers-draft-part-1/?fbclid=IwAR0P8f0UB6yJt51k5GVPLmPuSj4deIjqtqdb_9D9o9RAfmYOrqiyL-EtrrI

No kidding. The orange goblin is so unhinged. He’s losing it. He’s so easy to provoke though. Just ask him reasonable questions or throw his own words back at him and he goes nuts. What an embarrassment.

They could just play the games in Toronto. Not much difference that a normal game's attendance.

Deon Beasley. He didn't have an illustrious career but he put an end to chicken **** Printers
