  4. Back to back champs. NFL is going to be looking at our young talent and giving them serious looks. This is to be expected. I won’t ever be upset to see guys chase their dream. Football is a short career go make your money if you can. If not come back to Winnipeg and win another ring. That simple πŸ˜‰

    The TV Thread

    I realize this has been out since August, but I don't recall seeing it in this thread. Watched the first season over the holidays and can honestly say it is the best thing I watched in 2021. Three of the four leads are Canadian. (EDIT) - I see JCon recommended it way back in September.

    Influencer is just another term for narcissist. With the rampant growth of social media, these self-absorbed types have come out of the woodwork in droves.

  20. If Winnipeg had Joe Mack in charge and we were anything like that 2012-2013 club there’s absolutely no chance Harris would be coming home to play for us. People can say players wanted to come play for us and that’s absolutely true but that’s because we created a winning culture and winning organization.

  21. I am a Texas Football fan. He was a big deal down there and a super highly recruited guy out of highschool. I remember being disappointed seeing him sign with the bombers as a rider fan. Nice to see him down there promoting the league to a bunch of guys that could potentially be thinking about coming up here in the feature.

    Covid-19

    In South Africa, COVID cases fall as fast as they rose β€” suggesting the omicron wave could be brief The omicron variant is going extinct almost as fast as it took off in South Africa As goes South Africa, so goes the rest of the world. That sentiment might capture the hope of the health care community as they observe the infection pattern of omicron variant in the Southern Hemisphere nation of nearly 60 million people. When cases of the newly discovered COVID-19 mutation skyrocketed in South Africa in November and December 2021, the world took notice, fearful that it would soon reach the shores of all nations. After scientists learned that the SARS-CoV-2 strain was more transmissible than other viruses which cause COVID-19, political leaders like President Joe Biden began preparing their nations for the worst. But now, merely a month since cases began spiking in South Africa, numbers have dropped precipitously. Indeed, recent COVID-19 case numbers in South Africa resemble a very steep mountain β€” an incredibly fast spike, followed by an equally fast fall. Now, as South Africa emerges from the other side of its omicron wave, observers hope that the rest of the world will also find itself in better shape at the end of this chapter of the pandemic than it was during other variant phases. Fortuitously, researchers in South Africa have found that people in that country who were infected with the omicron variant were much less likely to be hospitalized, at least compared with previous variants. Just as notably, people who become sick after getting infected with omicron seem to recover more quickly than patients who were infected with other SARS-CoV-2 variants. Experts in the country believe the omicron surge there has already peaked, with the government issuing a statement on Dec. 30 explaining that there had been a 29.7 percent decrease in the number of confirmed new cases for the week ending on Christmas Day, compared with the number from the previous week (from 127,753 down to 89,781 cases). "All indicators suggest the country may have passed the peak of the fourth wave at a national level," the statement added, noting that there were only two provinces that reported increases in cases (the Western Cape and Eastern Cape). Officials also noted that, although the variant remains highly transmissible, hospitalizations have not increased as much as during previous COVID-19 waves. "This means that the country has a spare capacity for admission of patients even for routine health services," they pointed out.

    the only number that really matters to me these days is hospitalizations and ICU admissions (and deaths, obviously...) Daily case counts are basically "everyone" at this point...

    Yes, it is but the context is important. You can't even get a test (PCR) unless you have a positive RAT, so we're not comparing apples to apples from the start of the pandemic to today. The Gov't has given up.

    I don't want to quote the story about the death of the Thompson MLA last month as it has now been quoted a couple of times. I just want to say I'm sorry for Danielle Adams & her family. I lived in Thompson for two years from 1989 to 91. I was an Independent Adjuster which meant I was on the road travelling a lot to places like South Indian Lake, Cross Lake, Leaf Rapids & Lynn Lake. In the winter I'd use the winter roads to get to isolated communities I'd have to fly to in the summer. In January of 1990, there was a house fire in Lynn Lake. I had to get up there quickly & coundn't get a seat on the flight from Thompson to Lynne Lake so I decided to drive. Normally, it's a 6 hour drive but it had snowed the night before & the Hwy (391) wasn't plowed. No problem I thought. I had a brand new 4WD 1989 Ford Bronco II with new snow tires so I took off driving early, early the next morning. Got to Lynne Lake at about 1 PM with no issues. I adjusted the claim & left to go home about 5 pm in the dark. The Hwy was plowed by then but somewhere between Leaf Rapids & Thompson, I slid off the road on a curve on sheer ice & hit the ditch. There I was sitting in the ditch in the dark amid minus 35 temps wondering what to do? Trying not to panic, I thought through my options. Like, should I walk to what I thought was a nearby telephone tower to call for help but wisely decided to stay with my vehicle. I had burned my clutch out rocking my SUV back & forth trying to get unstuck. A pickup truck appeared in about the third hour. He stopped, came over when he saw my vehicle running with the lights on. The guy might have saved my life as I was nearly out of gas. We sat in his truck for a long while saying he won't leave me as it's too dangerous to be alone. A semi truck & trailer drove up to us & stopped. He had a chain & attached it to my SUV & pulled it out of the ditch & deep snow & went on his way. We then drove to that telephone tower (about 15 klms away) so glad I didn't try to walk in the brutal cold & dark as I may not have made it back to my Bronco. I was able to call my wife, tell her I was alright & not to worry. I then called a towing company in Thompson who arrived hours later. All the while the young guy never left my side with his warm truck. Tow truck finally arrived, picked up my SUV & towed my vehicle. I went with their driver back to Thompson. The pickup truck driver finally left & went on his way. He was a young First Nations guy who I'll never forget. That was quite the harrowing day. With the darkness & cold things could have turned out a lot differently. My decision to stay with my truck may have been the smartest choice I ever made. When you hear people say to never leave your vehicle & try to walk alone, they are telling the truth. Making the wrong decision will leave you dead in the bitter cold.

    TPR is 40.3% provincially, 48% in Winnipeg. That's nuts.
