    TSN1290 - Shutting Down

    I have to say, I left TSN1290 long ago. This past year, I've barely listened. I liked Hustler but that morning show has been horrible for years. But, to treat your staff that way? Embarrassing.

  2. So a few refs make some bad calls, but because the female ref made one of the questionable calls, you're questioning whether she should have even been there? What about the refs who made the other questionable calls, should they have been working that game? 🤔 In real time, that one looked to me like a good call, but when they showed the replay you could see that the receiver basically tripped on his own feet. The ref who threw the flag (at least the one that I saw) would have had the receiver running straight at him (or her, not sure which ref was in that spot) and it definitely could have looked like he was tripped up by the defender at that angle. Definitely the wrong call was made, but based on the angles, I can see how it might have looked like interference.

    I'm being facetious. On the day, it sucked but we actually got better in the end.

    Feel like Grant is a better returner but Lucky one day will probably more productive receiver but also have Nelson who might be the best combo of the two.

    Ouch. Feel like we're going to regret this. Just like when we lost Loffler and Santos-Knox.

    Republicans defend Trump ahead of impeachment trial by blaming Nancy Pelosi for Capitol riot GOP shifts blame to Democrats for Capitol riot, call impeachment a “diversionary operation” As Donald Trump's second impeachment trial looms near, bringing the former president's incitement of insurrection into greater focus once again, members of the GOP are –– in another ambitious act of baseless conspiracy –– deflecting blame onto their Democratic counterparts for the riot and framing impeachment as a "diversionary operation" meant to distract from Democratic culpability. The idea that Democrats, who were chiefly targeted by rioters themselves, are responsible for the riot, is not entirely novel. Shortly after the Jan. 6 riot, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC, tried to put House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, under scrutiny, asking in an interview with Fox News, "Where was Nancy Pelosi? It's her job to provide Capitol security." A month later, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Senator Ron Johnson, R-WI, are now taking Graham's cue, leading the charge to position their Democratic colleagues as enablers of the insurrection.

    Here is an article about the provisions of the Constitution about impeachment and the precedent for impeaching someone out of office. And as a matter of logic, every single outgoing President between losing the election and Inauguration Day could essentially break the law with reckless abandon and fear no consequence if impeachment were not allowed for someone out of office. That defies all common sense. https://www.justsecurity.org/74226/history-shows-the-senate-can-hold-an-impeachment-trial-after-trump-leaves-office/

    Got to say, if Huff were our GM, I would trust him completely. What he's done as the GM is remarkable. I also trust Walters equally.

  13. It seems to me that moving Brandon Alexander to safety made a huge difference to the team's success, even though I know I shouldn't be pointing to just one player as a difference maker.

    I hope they go with “elements” because then you could have all sorts of fun with that. Because like the element hydrogen they are full of hot air, like zirconium they have an overinflated and phony sense of value, and like sulfur they stink.

  16. I think you are trying to be a little too critical of his wording. Were the 2001 Stampeders a dominant team because they got hot in the playoffs when it mattered most? I think a middle ground can be taken. We were good and at times very good in the regular season, but floundered when injuries hit. We upped our game in the playoffs beyond anything we saw in the regular season. I would agree that Hamilton are probable favourites, and we may be favourites in the West, more so because of who Calgary and Saskatchewan have lost. But 2 seasons removed from action, who can really know how any team will perform?

  19. You obviously don't know who Sarah Thomas is, so maybe read up on the individual before posting such bigoted garbage. She's been an official in the NFL since 2015, starting as a line judge and then became a down judge in 2017. She's officiated in over 100 NFL games (both regular season and playoffs). It's almost like officials are imperfect and make bad calls every now and then, regardless of what's dangling between their legs or not.

    I don't think Lucky leaving the team makes us any worse, if anything retaining Grant might be an upgrade based off his play off performance.

    So you think there's enough people within the UCP voting ranks that would "Vote Rachel"? I feel like if disenchanted UCP voters were going to "hold their nose" to vote, it'd still be for Kenney, rather than have to vote NDP. But, again, I'm a bit jaded because I live in rural AB, which can really be like rural AL at times....

  42. The ball was about 5 yards overthrown... uncatchable... zero chance Evans is catching that ball if he stays upright... I agree with the general sentiment... the refs didn't "decide" the game... but there were plenty of questionable calls that could have made a difference... ultimately the Tampa D was too much, they essentially shut down the best offense in the league and that was the difference in the game...

  44. Torts is an idiot. If he really wanted it to “stay in the locker room” then a very public benching in his 4th game there is a dumb way to do it. Even if you don’t get into specifics you’re not exactly keeping it private. Smacks of “handled internally, no issue, next question”. How about coaching your player rather than embarrassing him? Can’t imagine why PLD ever wanted a trade. 🙄

    Sleeper free-agency pickups in DT position are: Baron Woody (MTL) and Michael Wakefield (OTT) both started for their respective teams and have almost the same stats with Stove. I think they would be cheaper option than Micah Johnson.
