  1. Yeah but why cover the CFL when they can stuff a mic in Jeff ONeils face and let him verbally fellate the Leafs?

    2021 (??) CFL Season

    Actual CFL news?? By gar, it's been awhile! ^^ that above quote is straight outta the Mike O'Shea handbook..... Also, re: 2021 season..... https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/video/what-next-week-s-bog-meeting-means-to-the-future-of-the-2021-cfl-season~2182003 important part of above: Team reps are meeting daily, and there is a board of governors meeting on Tuesday, after which they're expected to announce the delay of the start of the season. Lalji believes they do not want just an open-ended "season is postponed indefinitely" statement, and are instead wanting to have a hard confirmation of when exactly they will get going, barring another emergency...

    4 (1) Winnipeg Blue Bombers — Les Maruo, LB, Japan The first Japanese born player to ever start in Division One college football, Maruo spent much of his childhood in Wichita, Kansas before going to UTSA. He’s a mean, violent linebacker who moves really well and will instantly be a core special teams player for Winnipeg.

    Around The NHL 2020/21

    As posted yesterday, TJ Miller, speaking on behalf of the Canucks players, said they are nowhere near ready to play professional hockey. Some of these guys were in REALLY bad shape a week ago. They can't be expected to just get up and play right away, regardless of what money is on the line. They had a conference call with the NHL/NHLPA earlier today and thankfully common sense prevailed.... they will post-pone the 'Nucks games for a bit longer yet.

    Seems like a great fit. Smart, hard working, physical lber who can play teams and back up hansen. Tomoya Machino, an OL who measured just under 6'5 302 who was the most agile OL at the combine and put up 31 reps.

  9. Jets “magic” number (total points from Jets wins/opponents losses to clinch a spot ahead of that opponent in the standings): Ottawa - 1 Calgary - 13 Vancouver - 19 Montreal - 23 Edmonton - 26 Toronto - 32 Jets on their own can gain 26 points.

    I wonder if TSN has landed on the official 2020/2021 Leafs Covid Cup parade route. Maybe they'll announce it tonight depending on the result of the game.

  11. I remember the movie “Internal Affairs” where Andy Garcia is being introduced into Internal Affairs as the new detective. The superintendent, basically a political hack, welcomes him with a speech about how the rumours about the hatred of cops investigating cops is overblown, how important the work is, how it is a necessary check on police misdeeds, and that this unit has the support and respect of the entire force - that they recognize his role in making the force more accountable and therefore better, an initiative all police believe in. The super leaves and Garcia’s unit sargeant, who stood by quietly while the speech was going on, shakes Garcia’s hand and says “Welcome to IA, you’ve just lost every friend you ever had in the LAPD”. The Blue Wall absolutely exists. Like Noah said, individuals can’t or won’t speak up against the system.

    I agree with a lot of what you said, except for the 4th line. They have been decent... Mostly driven by Perreault and Lewis is pretty solid. Thompson has no business being on an NHL team IMO. Sitting guys like Harkins and Gustafsson, so he can play, is just ridiculous.

    Your *HATE* goes in here

    I have no questions on the cleanliness of McDonalds. As a kid I worked at one and it was a well oiled machine with it's practices of keeping the place clean and quality control of the food they served. That being said the food is so full of preservatives and filler that the quality of it is the drizzling shits. The fries are weird and unnatural, if you ever want a good watch then check out the special features of Super Size Me in the following video....

  22. I think there's a sense of loyalty because TSN took it on when nobody else would. Having said that, I don't know that any other network has even approached the league about possibly broadcasting games. Sure it'd be great to see CBC or S'Net come on board, but if they absolutely want no part of it.......? What can you do? Go back to the days of the CFN with Irving and Neil Lumsden? I don't think that was optimal...

  24. And then when the value of the product went up with better ratings nothing changed. The CFL kept dealing solely with TSN. So, they did create the situation they're in. Also, responding to TBurg's comments about TSN not keeping the price of the tv contract low for theirs & Bell's benefit, there is no way that they are paying full price or even a premium now for their TV product to the detriment of the CFL. This also drives home the problem of limited revenue streams in this country & why the CFL is in discussion with Red Bird Capital for more money. The cold reality for the haters of the CFL/XFL merger out there is that if the CFL has to go to outside sources to get that money because they can't get it from Canadian government, broadcasters & advertisers then they will be subject to those investors rules & demands. If it means 4 down football & a place for the XFL to play then so be it, I guess. Tradition & 3 down football will mean nothing which is sad.

    Yeah seems like he would bring a lot of versatility. He really gets off the ball well on those blitz clips. Im not sure if he is still in that international program with the NFL or not. But even if hes a futures pick he seems like a great get for a global.

  27. That was in Buffalo, the officer got 30 days unpaid suspension and is currently back on the payroll. The victim has recovered and is suing the city, the mayor, and the police. No idea how that will turn out. The body cam footage came out a few weeks ago. Not a good apple that one.

    Jets have looked lethargic recently. Forbort and Stastny imo look gassed and sort of... I'll say as a whole the past several games... They haven't been very good. The team looks discombobulated and off. Wheeler out screws lines up. Copp for some reason tries to change his game when he plays with Scheif and Connor instead of doing what he would do with Lowry and Apples. Its also no coincidence to me and coach deserves credit... The 4th line has been most consistent. They driving us right now and Ehlers and 3rd line Perreault now who might fit better in the top 6 than Copp ATM cuz mp is rested and playing outstanding along with Lewis Thompson Harkins.. Lowry. Nik drives our O along with the mentioned players. Copp plays well and best with Lowry and he's the new Laine on powerplay 2 Id like to see some guys get a rest.. Forbort Statsny to start. (gassed and Forbort has been **** for weeks now) Ville Vesalainen

  31. Dude, I'm just telling you what's going on because you like to run off on tangents. Football participation is down everywhere. The CFL is freaking broke. Trudeau turned them down again for a loan. And every game is on TSN instead of trying to get competitive by having others bid. The way the CFL conducts business is ridiculous. TSN artificially keeps the price of the tv deal low as they are the only bidder. That way Bell can make more profit off of football to the detriment of the league. The CFL knows it & still does it anyway.

    About the middle you will find Fauci responding to Tucker Carlson's suggestion that the vaccines don't work. Pure frigging insanity. You would think that with the American propensity to sue Carlson would be in court. They are all nuts.

    Hey guys, gals. Just wanted to share that I've opened up a pizza/burger joint in clear lake. First day; blizzard, and lockdown looks like it looking. Covids completely sunk me Codysconcessions on Facebook, the restaurant is called Gigi's. Wish I wasn't so computer illiterate or I'd post some photos of the grub..
