    I can’t find the tweets but one person asked why Trump was windmilling like that and another responded that it was a side effect of windmill cancer. 😆

    Haha. That's only what they're reporting. There are more cases and more deaths than what is leaking out. What a disaster the US is.

    Tomorrow is the last day for opt outs right? I'm kind of surprised Lucky hasn't decided to give it a try

    There are so many traditionalists here that want the CFL to be profitable but somehow only by doing things the exact same way they always have. The billionaire owners have basically only lost money propping up the CFL. Not that I have a strong love for capitalism and the wealth gap but I'm unsure why some think that they are required to continue to lose money.

    He should. The Biden administration has done a terrible job of managing things, the last number of years. Vote Trump for real change.....

    He apologized for offending the non-racist Rider fans. If you read the comments in his twitter feed, so you quickly discover what vile, disgusting human beings those racist folk are. Again, we see it right here among Bomber fans too.

    Contact tracing is thorough. Because of it, they have learned that there is not as much concern about asymptomatic people spreading the virus. Apparently most people spread the virus when they have symptoms.

    Wow - it seems Winnipeg is joining the Covid party again. But these high numbers are not necessarily bad news - it could be just more people getting tested.

  14. Sad but true state of affairs, even in Winnipeg look no further than the Human Rights museum debacle for racism, sexism and general injustices.

    Grey Cup Fan Base

    I bought in, more to support the league than a sense of ego or personal legacy. I respect that some people feel it is a cash grab, but I look at it as a decimal place in my long term support of the team and the league during tough times. I fully respect the hard work and dedication that the players and coaches put into the game, all with the goal of getting their name on the cup. I don't want to diminish what they've done, but supporting this initiative doesn't put your name on the cup, only on the fan base. I've been a season ticket holder since 1970, and rarely miss a home game. I've been to 20+ Grey Cups including the last 17 in a row. I've been to games in every CFL city. I've coached kids at the amateur level who have gone on to play in the CFL. I believe that the fan base, especially the season ticket holders, are the bedrock of the league. I would respectfully suggest that I've got as much or more invested in this league as a player who played a half a season, got paid, and lucked out and made the game day roster on a championship team. As a note, I renewed my season tickets for the Bombers as a show of on-going support. I also have a subscription to the WSO, and I donated my "cancelled" tickets to the organization rather than request a refund. If we want to have these things in our city, we need to support them. I recognize that my financial situation is different than others, and that does affect the decision making process. Certainly years ago supporting the league like this wouldn't have been an option for me, so I don't cast shadows on those who don't participate. It's really not much different than supporting other charities, many of whom put up a plaque to recognize their donors.

    All due respect, Jacquie but you can't just dismiss TrueBlue4ever's comments as he's right. The base is part of the Grey Cup. Emblematic of the best team in the CFL which has nothing to do with having enough money to buy a spot on the championship base. Why not put sponsor's logos on it as well to raise money??? What about that?
