Just some background on this. Lamont had to bring the case forward as a civilian (and had to pay legal charges personally) because there was no other way to enforce accountability on Stefanson.4 points

Yeah, I agree... there were too many... the two you mentioned, the 2nd and 20, the two fourth quarter INTs, the PAT miss... way too many mistakes to win the big game... and to think... you change just ONE of those plays... and the game outcome might've been different3 points -

I use the water method to seal my meat in a zip lock bag and zip is closed 90% then put it into the sous vide and the water pushes the air out, then zip close. Add a weight to hold it down and viola. No need to buy a vacuum sealer. Then finish on the grill.3 points -

Not only are they stupid, they're not even good speakers. You can tell they don't know what they're talking about and someone else has told them their talking points.

Yeah I don't get why people keep saying losing Rourke is cap space for the lions. They lose space because anyone they get is going to cost way more than Rourke did last season. I mean save cap space compared to what Rourke would have made this year after getting a fay new contract sure... but not compared to last year.2 points

Agreed. Sayles has always been a big meh for me. Would much rather have a behemoth in the middle that eats up blockers. There were just so many bone-headed, piss-poor plays in that game. So many guys had their worst game of the season that day. We truly handed that game to the Argos. Makes it even harder to swallow.2 points -
he's got 6+ months...all of camp...and since the fire was still there I am sure he will be just fine..,,.like others said...no knock on Kolo but if he is the starter game 1...something went seriously wrong....he's great depth tho but last year was adequate ...nothing more...nothing less....anyone playing with our tackles and guards should do adequately....Gray came on just fine last year...and he is versatile as heck too....I have no issues with him from my vantage point...plus he plays nasty and aggravates the hell outa dlineman2 points

Well I guess it depends.. Ellingson has been the better player when healthy but he’ll be 35 by the team the CFL season is over in 2023. I guess I can’t really see a scenario where a 34 year old is going to get less injury prone, I would rather roll the dice on Wieneke who was outstanding in 2021.1 point -

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Titans are switching Nissan Stadium to a high-tech artificial surface for the 2023 season. The move is spurred by NFL studies showing the team's natural surface may have contributed to more lower-body injuries from 2018-2021 than the six NFL venues that use the sort of monofilament fields the team will now turn to. The Hellas Matrix Turf the Titans will install is currently in use at AT&T Stadium (Cowboys), NRG Stadium (Texans) and SoFi Stadium (Chargers and Rams). It's the same turf the Titans installed in their practice bubble last offseason and they have been pleased with it. It's got all organic infill of cork and coconut that requires regular watering. https://www.paulkuharsky.com/news/titans-installing-high-tech-artificial-surface-in-nissan-stadium1 point

Last year Wieneke's production slowed down, but I think this was mostly due to the style of offence and QB play. Under VAJ Wieneke put up very good numbers. The guy is a deep threat, and is excellent at grabbing contested catches. Once MTL moved to a quick pass offence (IE Trevor harris took over) his production dropped off.1 point -

Trump’s Financial Situation Is Even Shakier Than We Knew Trump’s tax returns reveal that he has far less liquidity than he’s presented—and it could explain a lot of his behavior. When Donald Trump left office in early 2021, he was apparently on much thinner financial ice than almost anyone knew. That revelation, which three accounting experts confirmed upon reviewing Trump’s 2020 tax return, may help explain some of the financial and political moves the former president has made in the intervening years. Snowballing legal fees, along with other possible legal settlements and judgments, threaten to consume the cash pile he needs to bankroll his business activity, as well as fund a lavish lifestyle and maintain his image of excess—an emperor atop a golden toilet. How big is that cash pile, exactly? Accountants caution against reading too much into tax returns of high net worth individuals like Trump—especially ones in the real estate business—because those filings can be extraordinarily complex. That said, all three tax experts interviewed for this article concurred that Trump’s stash on hand at the end of 2020 does not appear to be quite as generous as the returns might make it seem. While Trump often boasts of being a billionaire—which, in terms of assets, he is—two of the experts who reviewed his returns for this article said that as his presidency came to its tumultuous end, it appears Trump, depending on interest rates, may have had immediate access to anywhere between $30 million and $100 million, with that amount itself scattered across hundreds of entities. That bottom line was reflected in new documents filed last week by New York Attorney General Letitia James in her $250 million fraud lawsuit against Trump, three of his adult children, and his businesses. Those documents show that Trump—a billionaire on paper—only had control over about $65 million in liquid assets as he prepared to depart the White House. The cash flow discrepancy, according to three accounting experts who reviewed Trump’s 2020 tax returns, is significant, and can be chalked up to one simple fact: The vast majority of Trump’s ordinary income is reported as interest income and derived from pass-through entities. His tax returns are not intended to report if this income was actually distributed to him—they only indicate what income is attributed to him as an owner or investor. That fact is central to James’ lawsuit, which argues that these funds may not actually equate to liquidity—and that when Trump applied for loans, he played up those “restricted funds” as his own money in order to help secure the loans. In reality, the suit says, a significant portion of what Trump called “his” cash was wholly controlled by another entity—the real estate behemoth Vornado—which Trump could not unilaterally access if he, or his businesses, needed to find some funds. “Internal Trump Organization records acknowledge that cash residing in the Vornado Partnership Interests was not Mr. Trump’s to access at his whim,” the new filing reads. The filing goes on to cite those internal records, which admit that “distributions are at the discretion of Vornado” and “at this point we do not have all of the data that goes into Vornado’s decision making, thus we are attributing no distribution for these properties.” Citing Trump Organization financial statements, James points out that of the $92.7 million that Trump held in liquid assets in 2020, $28.25 million of that amount was tied up in “partnership entities Mr. Trump did not control as Mr. Trump’s own liquidity.” In some years, she said, “these restricted funds accounted for almost one-third of all the cash reported by Mr. Trump.” Mark S. Gottlieb, a forensic accountant and tax law expert in Manhattan, told The Daily Beast that if the attorney general’s premise is correct and Trump does not have access to portions of the 2020 income attributed and taxed to him, those amounts are tantamount to “phantom income.”1 point -

In my business, it was an axiom that almost all addictions, process or substance are driven by traumatic life events. To put it another way, hurt people hurt people. What started as an emotional anaesthetic becomes physically and emotionally addictive as the sufferer comes to believe that she cannot cope with life without their magic potion. And there is a great distinction between a one-time event and a behavioural pattern.1 point

Ultimately i think that Eli will be an upgrade over Couture. We lost a lot of grit and nastiness when we lost Desjarlais and Eli. Eli will bring at least some of that back and I think it will be very welcome. Can't wait for Dobsen to be part of the starting group as well. Sounds like the riders are dumping some overpaid players so they can overpay for different players to appease the fan base.1 point -

We currently live in a world where there is a segment of the population no matter what he says or does who love and adore this man, attend his rallies, contribute to his 'causes', follow his words closely, emulate his persona, prop up others who support him etc etc. We currently live in a world where there is a segment of the population that believe people of many political backgrounds who think trump is absurd, a lunatic and is a danger to society are actually the divisive ones creating us versus them situations and are not listening to all 'sides' of the issues, one 'side' being that of Trump's 'perspectives'. We currently live in a world where there is a segment of the population that presents themselves as moderates believing everyone else of political and social influence are equally bad not just Trump and what he stands for. So if we go after Trump we must go after everyone else or we're blatant hypocrites. Insane.1 point -

Kolo has done some thing really impressive. For a guy his age with as few reps as he came here with to become a solid back up who can step in in an emergency that’s pretty amazing. I sure couldn’t see him going further and becoming more than that. I’d be happy if he stuck around as depth but I’d be very worried if we went into 2023 with him as a starter for the year. Especially with gray Eli and Dobson around. We’ve had guys with the physical tools and nastiness like Dobson and Eli before. But never with the pedigree and polish as well. Guys like Rupert butcher work out hero not guys who had legit shots of becoming nfl players or first round picks. for me the two best case scenarios are Eli starts at centre and Dobson at guard with gray as 6th man or re sign couture with eli at guard. Gray is soo much better suited to being a rt in the long run. And better as the te in heavy set.1 point
