    That's a big loss for us. He's one of the best in the biz. Honestly I'm surprised we didn't lock him up before this. Methinks he's in line to be the Lions future GM.

    Yes. Every effort should be made to hold into account, all the enablers. They are the ones who allowed Trump to do all his siht. Make note, keep track and bloody slap them when they aren’t looking. Either that, or let Katie Porter have a round with them.😃 There are many ways big Donnie will be dealt with. His future isn’t so bright.

If dipshits who are crying about their freedoms took some time to actually look at how countries who are open for business got to that point. Maybe we would be able to have a CFL season. I'm not holding my breath though. I honestly never thought I'd want to leave Canada, but **** me there are a lot of self entitled under educated fucks here. NZ has been holding live sporting events since June (though there was a lockdown in August) Australia is back to normal life, I have a friend in China who has been partying and bar hoping for weeks now. I'm not a fan of China or how they do things, but Australia and NZ are examples we should be following.

    I guess there are enough stupid people who would welcome this, even though the timing would be horrendous. The idiot president is creating Kaos, and the US needs its own Maxwell Smart to fight this.

    2020 USA ELECTION!!!!

    Trump to travel ‘unannounced’ to fake ‘hearing’ on election fraud — after aides failed to talk him out of it: reports Sarah Toce and The New Civil Rights Movement November 25, 2020 President Donald J. Trump is planning to fly to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, Wednesday in an attempt to save his reputation, whatever is left of it, post-election 2020. He is expected to meet with a "handful" of Pennsylvania Republicans to discuss the election results, which delivered him a loss roughly three weeks ago. Katherine Faulders reported that the "hearing" would take place at the Wyndham Hotel and that Trump's personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, would be in attendance for what they are dubbing a Republican "Majority Policy Committee." "It's readily apparent to everyone besides Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, and Jenna Ellis that this election is over and that Joe Biden won resoundingly," said Bob Bauer, the lead attorney for the Biden campaign, in a statement on Tuesday. Hopefully their meeting won't turn out the same way this one did at the Four Seasons Total Landscaping earlier this month.

    2021 (??) CFL Season

    https://www.tsn.ca/naylor-many-questions-but-few-answers-on-a-2021-cfl-season-1.1543725 The Canadian Football League has been outrageously quiet since it pulled the plug on its season more than two months ago, leaving behind a wake of speculation about where things are headed next. With the reality setting in that COVID-19 is likely to still be around in some form next summer, there is real concern about what the 2021 season might look like or if it will occur at all. There are teams that believe it is vitally important to play in 2021 and that without a season the CFL is in danger of being mothballed. Whether every team believes that is another question. And there is a lot to sort out before anyone can accurately predict what a season might look like and how much pain the teams are collectively willing to stomach to make it happen. The league and its franchises are currently running through various scenarios for next season, trying to get a handle on true costs of each and working at ways to trim budgets and save money. That’s likely to continue until the league can truly choose a course of action, which feels like next April at the earliest. Why? Well, there’s not much point in fully committing to a scenario that’s seven months away if that scenario might be totally unrealistic by the time you get there. There has been no 2021 business plan presented yet, only regular updates to the presidents and governors about what the league is doing to prepare for the unknown. It should be noted that teams will need to make decisions about retaining assistant coaches with expiring contracts by December, which will be the first real economic commitments to a 2021 season. Restrictions on signing players will need to be lifted well before the opening of February free agency, where players are likely to meet a cautious market – one in which signing bonuses will probably be absent. There’s a collective bargaining agreement to amend, if not renegotiate, with the players, which will require some kind of pressure point because it always does. But the league can’t sit down with the players until it gets a true handle on revenues and it can’t do that until it chooses a course of action. Will CFL teams be allowed to have full stadiums next summer? It doesn't seem likely. But just what percentage of capacity will be allowed – if any at all – is impossible to guess. It seems as if the league is counting on the restrictions that currently prevent fans from being in stadiums being lifted. But to what degree? When will we see a schedule? Good question. Or could we see multiple schedules for different scenarios? Never say never. Could it be a 21-week, 18-game season played in home stadiums? Unlikely, given the losses teams are expected to take with reduced numbers of fans in the stands. Could we see a return to the 10-week bubble? Maybe. A nine-game schedule played in home stadiums before fans? Perhaps. The point is no one knows, so demanding answers to questions that can’t possibly be answered right now is a waste of time. All we know is that there’s going to be a lot less revenue for teams to operate with under any scenario, not just because of crowd restrictions but also due to older fans choosing to stay home for their safety. The CFL’s fan demographics do it no favours in this regard. Getting consensus on a best course of action won’t be easy for the CFL’s nine teams. Back in the summer, there were teams that were willing to play without government support and teams that weren’t. And just like then, the biggest challenge commissioner Randy Ambrosie faces now is finding a scenario they can all live with. Adopting a revenue-sharing model so that each team absorbs the same amount of red ink would certainly make consensus-building easier, which many believe should be the direction for the future, COVID-19 or not. The other elephant in the room is federal government, which many in the CFL believe left it high and dry last summer after months of back-and-forth talks where the league believed it was making progress. Is the CFL prepared to go down that road again, knowing it doesn’t control the timeline and larger forces can change things in an instant? Perhaps, although it’s not as though the feds don’t have a long list of people coming at them with their hands out. There will be voices demanding the owners suck up the losses of playing a season under any circumstance, as owners have done in other sports. But the business calculation in sports such as MLB, NFL, NHL and NBA is different because of the percentage of revenues those leagues derive from television. Losses sustained by playing in those leagues can also be viewed as investments towards protecting massive franchise values. That’s not the case in the CFL, where teams can’t just float money on the backs of their franchise values, and where one third of the teams are publicly owned. It would be beneficial for the league to soon announce its formal commitment to play some kind of season in 2021. But beyond that, get ready for months more of waiting with lots of questions and speculation but very few answers.

    Pardon's are an admission of guilt and yes once Trump pardon's himself he is admitting quilt to everything that he did while in power, if investigated after he leaves office he has no power to stop any inquires and will have to answer any subpoena's served and cannot plead the fifth when he shows up

    Trump and his enablers are all busy shredding and scrubbing any and all evidence of the all the shenanigans that they did during the last four years and now they will do everything that will make it harder for the Biden administration once they take over, for this they should investigate all of them, let Trump pardon who ever he wants including himself, in the end he has more than enough problems on his plate once he leaves office.

    Difference between Soviet Union, and The Republican subset of America.... book review "Russian novelist Victor Pelevin reminds us of a time when the words of Lenin were looked to as an authority on every subject from human consciences to outer space. At the same time, Pelevin makes it clear that Russians living in Soviet times were aware that the Soviet system was built on lies. To survive, Russians had to play along with the system though. Pelevin's novel unleashes pent-up anger at the wasted lives and years of the Soviet era." Americans are propagandized heavily. re service vote. very interesting. They saw how much Trump loathes them.

  34. I'm not one of these fans that celebrate NFL success by former CFL players like it somehow validates our league as somehow being more important. Once they leave the Bombers for another team in the CFL or to play in the NFL that is what they are... former Bombers. I wish them well but I prefer to dwell on the guys we have still here. If I wasn't an Arizona Cardinals fan (& I'm not) I wouldn't suddenly become a fan of that team because former Blue Bombers Cliff Kingsbury is HC & Chris Streveler is a backup qb with them.

    Trump Is Racing to Bring Back Firing-Squad Executions Before He Leaves Office, Says Report Reuters/Hannah McKay There have been many predictions—from instigating nuclear war to pardoning Joe Exotic—about what President Donald Trump might do during his final months in office, but it’s fair to say few people guessed this. According to a report from ProPublica, Trump is trying to rush through a proposed regulation that could see federal executions being carried out by firing squads again. The proposed rule cleared White House review on Nov. 6, according to the report, so it could be finalized any day.
