  2. Perfect image. Herb is Riders upper management after giving O'Day (Homer) carte blanche budget to get whatever QB he wanted, then comes out with "All In On Cody Fajardo" (the car)..... *sobbing* "We're ruined....."

    There is also other side of the coin to consider - those students who at a higher risk because of remote learning. Those who won't have breakfast or lunch, those with parents who can't or won't supervise them, and those who are disadvantaged because they can't access technology.

  10. Waiting for posts to be pulled so the fire is put out before it starts. 😁 And where is Whiteout when we need a fresh perspective on this topic? But to bring this back to football, and big signings, do we target any big free agents, or just try to keep our current team as intact as possible. Lucky Whitehead would be an interesting grab, and his appearance at the West Final certainly meant something, no? But could we afford him without losing a key piece elsewhere. Would be a huge replacement for maybe Darvin Adams.

    Unfortunately a lockdown now will do nothing to stop this wave but punish people how have been punished enough, hopefully Omicron will be swift and merciful and maybe we can put this wave behind us in the month or so.

  15. Reinbold had the run of the team, he was the one making player personal decisions and unless you rode a Harley you wouldn't be one of his players. This is where Miller really grew and learned how not to manage a franchise. Reinbold was and always has been smoke and mirrors, talked a good game but can't walk the walk. I think this helped formulate Miller as he was a workaholic but could see the folly in the ways of all show and no go.

  16. This response will be joined to my earlier one I'm guessing but.... First. It's not Marijuana. It's Cannabis. Marijuana is a plant found in Mexico that is very similar to tobacco. People started using Marijuana to confuse farmers in the 1930(ish) so they wouldn't realize they were actually voting to make their hemp crops illegal. Also claims about potency going from 3-4% to 25-30% is hilarious and factually incorrect. Yes cannabis is more potent today than in the 60s. But to claim it was only 3% back when they didn't have tech to actually test is a funny take. Also without getting into details of how the plant grows and actually accumulates cannabinoids (THCA, CBDA etc) what most people get today in store is closer to 15-20%. Testing is not in anyway an exact science. And every flower bud will have a different potency than the next, even from the same plant. Only very rarely will you see 30% plus potency....and even then to say the entire plant holds that....is questionable at best. Companies often send out their best product to be tested, it is 100% not reliable. In terms of privacy, I'm sure Lawler will be fine with me talking about him on here....you know due to him taking multiple photos with staff that were solely for the purpose of social media. Jefferson also posted a video in his private residence where a small Bong was seen. So please Get off your high (no pun intended) horse. You're credentials etc aside. I can tell you do not actually understand the plant and what it does/doesn't do. So please feel free to message me if you'd like a more thorough education. Calm your **** Catan. No one cares.

  17. It's 2021 man. Lawler is a stoner....but hes 100% not the only one. If you dont think Jefferson is a reliable athlete well...im not sure what youve been watching. Sounds like you could use some education on how cannabis impacts the body. Hint....everything that was traditionally taught about pot is actually only true for alcohol.

  18. I am not a fan of Marijuana... but it's legal so why are people making a big deal about players using it? No different than alcohol at this point.

  19. The reference to it being ok because it's a naturally occurring plant is kinda BS though... Cocaine comes from a naturally occurring plant too. It has been proven many times over that cannabis is harmful to brain development for users under the age of 25.

    Definitely. I left classroom teaching at the outbreak of the pandemic because of a health condition. Winnipeg is having it rough with teacher shortages, but I'd imagine rural is even worse and northern MB is worse still. I'm not connected to the teacher who passed away on Christmas, but it was reported that she was triple vaccinated and otherwise healthy and only had symptoms around December 20th. I think closing school would have an effect, but it wouldn't stop the spread. Not by a long shot. Judging by ages of cases, I believe schools have been the biggest spreader over the past few months. Many kids being asymptomatic, but spreading also shows lower numbers at younger ages, but higher at older ages. I think Omicron and weaker vaccine effectiveness against Omicron will balance the numbers out more, but I'd imagine kids are still big spreaders. Unfortunately Omicron is also affecting them with an increase of hospitalization in kids over 50% in December alone (US numbers). I think its disgusting that more isn't done to close bars/nightclubs/etc. when our testing capacity is maxed out and we don't know how many cases there are. Our hospitals are at the max to the point where non-Covid patients are dying unnecessarily. I also think its time to consider bumping down unvaccinated Covid cases in terms of ICU/hospital priority.

  24. The Stamps would want Juwan Brescacin back. Likely another starter from the Argos. The trouble is, with all the 1 year deals trading BLM before free agency means that if the Stamps can't sign the players they trade for, it's a huge risk.

  27. Just wondering why you're arguing this so vigorously? To people, marijuana is canabis & canabis is marijuana. Interchangeable. Who cares about legal terms? It's like arguing which is correct, booze or alcohol? Meat or protein? Potatoes or carbs?

    Covid-19

    Oh, I think Covid is definitely being spread in schools. I just think the problem has gone far beyond where closing schools would make a difference. I'm sorry to hear about deaths, there have been deaths in my community too. I'm not sure how things are in Winnipeg, but out here it's a real mess. Experienced teachers are opting for early retirement, most retired teachers are no longer willing to sub, and inexperienced teachers are in an impossible position. Remote learning this month is going to create even more checked out kids. There is a serious teacher shortage, right across the country. I know of several rural school who have lost teachers that they cannot replace.

  33. Argue against legislation. You might be entitled to argue in the right circumstance. There’s people here that aren’t agreeing with you. You can ignore them if you want. The stoners in the league don’t care what it’s called. They just want the blunt passed.

  34. Actually you were doing pretty good explaining prior to this latest post. However, you got frustrated. Marijuana is a term used in legislation. You don’t agree and don’t have to. You don’t have to like it either. Yet, legislation uses them synonymously, that’s what matters. So your wrong when it matters. See the definitions in section 1 of the attached authority. “marihuana- means the substance referred to as Cannabis (marihuana)…” https://www.canlii.org/en/ca/laws/regu/sor-2016-230/latest/sor-2016-230.html I don’t think any player cares what they are ingesting, cannabis or marijuana. Had to get a football reference in there to somewhat stay on topic.

  35. It's not a racial term. It was first used as a reference to cannabis to confuse the public because it sounded foreign (specifically Mexican) and used in racial propaganda. "Marijuana makes black men rape white women". This is not a theory, you can find the ads/warnings today. No one is suppressing anything lol. Jesus christ get off the soap box. It's just not a correct term. That's it. That's all. Laws or not, it's not what it is. Marijuana is one plant....cannabis is another. How they came to mean the same thing is based on propaganda and racism. I was giving you a history lesson. No need to get your panties in a bunch.

  36. Marijuana is a legitimate and legal form of expression. Suppressing how it’s said, when it’s said, Is an attempt to cancel people. All bullshit. There is more than enough reference in Canadian, American and British laws. Laws in effect and jurisprudence are written in English by the highest courts, to make the term Marijuana synonymous with Cannabis.

  37. Doesn't get much worse either way. Boltus wasn't a pro caliber qb on his best day. Brown can't even handle the ball. They are both soo bad their is no worse tier below either. Mourtada might be as bad as a kicker.

    They should have shut youth sports down before the holidays, and prioritized rapid tests for schools so they could test leading up to the first day back.

  42. As they should. He put himself ahead of the team. Everybody else was vaccinated. Even the ones that didn't want to. Except him. People can say that's his right as it's his choice. The Bombers can say it's their right to release him as it's the team's choice. Works both ways.
