respect: Bill Belichick will not receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Donald Trump this week. The New England Patriots head coach announced Monday in a statement to ESPN’s Adam Schefter that he had declined the president’s offer. “Recently, I was offered the opportunity to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which I was flattered by out of respect for what the honor represents and admiration for prior recipients,” Belichick’s statement read. “Subsequently, the tragic events of last week occurred and the decision has been made not to move forward with the award. “Above all, I am an American citizen with great reverence for our nation’s values, freedom and democracy. I know I also represent my family and the New England Patriots team. One of the most rewarding things in my professional career took place in 2020 when, through the great leadership within our team, conversations about social justice, equality and human rights moved to the forefront and became actions. Continuing those efforts while remaining true to the people, team and country I love outweigh the benefits of any individual award.” if anyone had doubts this should end them!

I cautiously agree, we have to be careful with what's going on in Ontatrio and what 's starting to happen in Saskatchewan

No news today? Who told Walters he could have a day off? I demand more news! I demand yet another exciting signing!😉

If you are saying that he could be the next leader of the federal PC party, why would you wish that on him? He seems like a decent sort of guy.

Navdeep Bains steps down, Trudeau to shuffle cabinet: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-cabinet-shuffle-small-1.5869679 Nice to see Mr. Carr back at work.

You think other teams are looking at what the Bombers are doing and going

I have said it before and say it again, we need a WTF emoji here.

oh that's a given in prison

loud flushing sound heard Will cut to the chase — “Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican leader, has told associates that he believes President Trump committed impeachable offenses and that he is pleased that Democrats are moving to impeach him, believing that it will make it easier to purge him from the party, according to people familiar with his thinking. The House is voting on Wednesday to formally charge Mr. Trump with inciting violence against the country.” www.nytimes.com/… 😂 Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has cancelled a trip to Europe trip at the last minute. Mr Pompeo had been due to fly out on Tuesday but Reuters reports that Luxembourg’s foreign minister and several top European Union officials have declined to meet with him. what is this pompeo,doing anyway? man he is a creep.

It's a federal crime to share classified info. First thing I would do, if I were Biden, would be to set up a sting to see how fast troop deployments ended up in the hands of Putin.

I do not care for Evander but think part of his issues stem from mental health problems. I hope he gets help, for the sake of his child. Gambling certainly is an issue.

Mark Liegghio....now this kid has a leg...Watched some of his field goal efforts from last year and he was putting them through the uprights from the fifty with ease...Ham. really wanted a shot at him at the draft but we picked their pocket...Could be the future here

remember when the " very serious people" decided that Howard Dean couldnt be candidate for President? causse of this but the same people thought Trump could be "presidential"

No, I don't think so. Too much scrutiny. He's been laundering money for so long, it's finally caught up to him. He's poison now and everyone will know it. Same with all his properties that he takes millions out of and lose millions each year. They're now looking at his laundering.

You can't wait to see what he brings not playing any games? In a few weeks, the AHL will start up and he'll be playing there. Jets will need to find him a back-up.

Totally agree. I'd love for the gyms to be open but can wait. I feel like 25% capacity allows us to buy some non essentials (I need some new pants too) and allows small businesses to make some money (worried about people losing jobs, businesses, homes etc) but in a controlled way. I suggested the travel ban/quarantine due to Ontario and Saskatchewan's numbers. I don't want to see us open it up like say July right away.

Let the backtracking begin

Ontario is in full lockdown now. Stay at home order. Ford takes the lead in which premier can screw this up the most. Tough to take the crown from Kenney and Pallister. Well earned, Trump North, well earned.

"my first thought" its believable to me ...... that she has not had any thoughts prior to,that one. stupidity, gullibility, craven selfishness..... good combo for a republican legislator.

The people who thought that the speech was totally appropriate were all wearing white hoods.

The trouble with stupid people is that they do not realize how stupid they are.

It's going to be weeks, if not months, before Comrie is waived again and the Jets get him. Samberg can be reassigned to the AHL if they get going.

I thought this said Jovon Johnson at first and I was extremely confused.

did mummy help with the makeup? need to know. a snowflake. along with all the rest of those cowards in that mob. beating helpless people to death. just like his cowardly hero trump. lol trump " Admission of guilt" as if there's a shortage of evidence of his crimes.

The turkey has been refusing to eat prison food because it is not organic. Wait until he finds out that he is not going to get his bed turned down and his pillows fluffled every night.

He should demand some grey poupon and maybe a nice chianti,

Oh wait, that was Jonothan Jennings lol. Davis can't even do turnovers for us right.

Not true, he had a pretty nice touchdown pass to Winston Rose last year for the Bombers at home.

Glad these guys understand the position the teams are in right now and able to work out these restructured deals

Liz Chaney has just announced she will vote to impeach Trump

Come on. Trump only blindsided and double crossed him on the stimulus bill, making him a scapegoat for the MAGAbillies. Then Mitch had to cower on the floor, then flee, as the Trump Insurrection stormed the Capitol Building. And listen to Trump stating that his speech to that mob was "completely appropriate." Just not enough......for a tipping point, yet

Oh, good, someone's doing something that I'm too cowardly to do - Yertle the Turtle. And, of course, he won't recall the Senate because he doesn't want to vote Trump out of power. Although, he could do it on January 19th and not worry too much about repercussions (from Trump).

what happened to impeachment vote? "off the table"? other news Former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, his health director and other ex-officials have been told they’re being charged after a new investigation of the Flint water scandal, which devastated the majority Black city with lead-contaminated water daily kos https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2021/1/12/2008604/-Former-Michigan-Governor-and-Others-To-Be-Charged-Over-Flint-Water-Crisis?pm_source=story_sidebar&pm_medium=web&pm_campaign=recommended im surprised.

Anyone remember Dereck Sanderson of the Bruins ...All the talent in the world but squandered it all and ended up sleeping on a park bench with a brown bag....Tragic...Some of the stories about him being in golf tournaments where he would buy the best set of golf clubs in the club house and then just give them to his caddy after the eighteenth ... Partnered up with Super Bowl winning qb. Joe Namath in a high end New York restaurant , then walked on it ... Kane should read how Sanderson's career ended and give his head a shake and grow up...You can go from penthouse to outhouse with the wrong lifestyle

This guy was on board even before the Capitol disaster

The hilarious thing is that, even though the Saudis (the royal family, really) have bought many billions of armaments from the US (mostly), they are so paranoid about being overthrown that very few of the military are allowed to have bullets, rockets or bombs. Most of the weapons are in ultra-secure warehouses and many have been outdated without ever having been deployed.

I agree with you on a number of your points. The only thing you are missing here is that Saudi Arabia will do what it chooses to do shamelessly, because there is no accountability- they will continue to do what ever they want as long as they have money and there is demand for oil. As an aside note: This is probably the best way to deal with trump- massive movement to isolat him- kind of how governments would treat a terrorist org.

Beyond this, Trump will no longer have any influence anywhere in American politics or economy, so he will be of no further use to them. Therefore, he will be discarded as soon as they can extricate themselves from his dealings.

Backtracking? It's Jim Jordan- he'll never backtrack, there is no accountability- so why should he?

The provincial trp ticked up a bit while Winnipeg went down less and less people are getting tested, that could be a good thing or could mean that people have stopped wanting to get tested especially if they have no symptoms, it's important that if you have had close contact you should get tested NEW Last updated: January 12, 2021 Public health officials advise eight additional deaths in people with COVID-19 have been reported today including: a female in her 80s from the Interlake-Eastern health region; a male in his 50s from the Northern health region; a female in her 70s from Prairie Mountain Health and linked to the outbreak at the McCreary/Alonsa Health Centre; a male in his 70s from the Winnipeg health region and linked to the outbreak at Southeast Personal Care Home; a male in his 70s from the Winnipeg health region; a male in his 80s from the Winnipeg health region; a female in her 90s from the Winnipeg health region and linked to the outbreak at The Convalescent Home of Winnipeg; and a female in her 90s from the Winnipeg health region and linked to the outbreak at the Bethania Mennonite Personal Care Home.

Laboratory testing numbers show 1,368 tests were completed yesterday bringing the total number of lab tests completed since early February 2020 to 441,905. Case investigations continue and if a public health risk is identified, the public will be notified.

The next big re up to be done but probably the most certain. Extremely happy to have WJ back. And glad these guys who could score big in FA are re working deals to stay here.

Agree. Still waiting for Andrew Harris re-signing. Hoping he will do the same.

Strange the ppl picking Jets last or close to last... Obviously quite uninformed. Jets play in what some consider to be the toughest division in hockey and if being honest last year was a **** show with the buff drama and all that.. yet still 2020 CDn team standings when season took a break last year Oilers. 83 pts in 71 games Leafs 81 points in 70 games Jets. 80 points. 71 games. Flames. 79 points in 70 games Canucks 78 in 69 games. Habs 71 in 71 Sens 62 in 71 games. Leafs. Sens. Habs all in a weaker division. Jets lose all 3 RHd including Buff who just left b4 camp started. Lose Scheif Laine Game 1 and Appleton in play in series. Lose. Now we blow? We should be battling for top spot in the division just based on skill of opponents we are used to playing.

Ducky Forever! ✈️

Dominique Davis re-signs in Ottawa...
