As a citizen of the Greater Toronto Area, I reserve the right to be maximally offensive when discussing the various podunks that the rest of Canada inhabits. I likewise will take very little umbrage over what those bumpkins think about the Centre of the Universe.

When you flush the toilet, everything flows to the centre of the bowl. Same vibes.

........Which brings us to, and I know this is hockey BUT why is an NHL team being considered in failed Atlanta before Quebec city......IF the Nordiques would've been marketed properly , I think they'd still be there....We need more Canadian teams than we do another American club.......Guess the powers that be in the nhl just can't wrap their heads around another Canadian expansion

Only 32 more months. #IsItNovember2025yet?

....just ******* painful......

And that's why you stink. 🙂

Both would start on any team in the league...thinking otherwise is foolish I comfortable with the starters at LB yup...depth behind we don't know as not even a day of TC has occured yet...let alone the full TC roster and 2023 draft picks ..so judging anything now and doin a forward looking prognosis based on the past is pointless and proves nothing...and have seen many guys come back and play just fine after an Achilles rebuild..a slight tear that requires no surgery has wayyyy better prognosis long term than a restructured one...and takes way less rehab and coddling...as it was Wilson was working out..running and doing things full bore by last game or 2 of season but was not rostered because he would have needed several solid weeks of playing to be game effective...at that point in season there was no time

Yeah I don't care about his politics. The guy is a billionaire, with a B. Hopefully he buys it and keeps it afloat

Chevy needs to be fired if we don't make the playoffs. Bring in a new gm and start the rebuild. Wasted all these players prime years keeping Maurice.

You got this.

Anyone who receives a subpoena from a committee lead by a person who refused to answer a subpoena on them should just tell them to pound sand

Let's Go Jets! Hi, I'm Chevy ...

Quite frankly, all I care about is that the cheques don't bounce when someone takes over in Montreal. If Quebec wants to separate, they should, as long as they take their portion of the debt, don't use Canadian money or any other services, and allow whatever parts of Quebec that want to stay in Canada stay. Canada is like an unhappy marriage. Quebec is the wife who wants to leave everything behind except the benefits. The rest of Canada is the husband, who keeps giving things to the wife to keep her happy, despite knowing that it's all a farce.

so much anti-French sentiment in this thread.... it's interesting. I understand hate for separation, but is Alberta's current situation any different?? Maybe I've just been living in rural AB for too long (definitely...) but people getting their backs up immediately over anything French related just makes me roll my eyes.

The Manitoba budget is going to be a crazy spending spree to bury the next gov't. They know they're out, which is why they're cutting taxes and increasing spending to high level. The next gov't will have to raise taxes significantly to cover it and still cut the budget so that we don't bankrupt the province. This a common conservative plot - handcuff the next gov't. They don't care about Manitobans, only money and power. Same with UCP. They're spending money, handing it to millionaires and billionaires, without any plan for covering the shortfall when the cost of oil drops.

I've lived in the center of the universe..and various Podunk locations...so I can say whatever I want haha

My take on Chevy’s managerial style…if it’s yellow, let it mellow.

Not true. He’s built a good bank account at the paying Jet’s fans expense …

I feel sorry for Bowness ....who had things going pretty good at the start of the year....I'm pretty sure he thought he'd get some backing for a playoff run BUT the gm didn't deliver ....The time was now when we have the talent to do something in the playoffs but Chevy couldn't get it done....Is it 100 percent his fault ....no....but the effort made was poor to nonexistent to give the current team a boost .....I have a bad feeling this club will now slip right out of the playoff picture AND if that happens a review of the club from top to bottom has to be in order ...IF TrueNorth sees no alternative but to keep the current gm in place ....then I don't like the future of this club going forward....Slip....slip slidin away

I think this might be part of it… For all of those upset over the lack of activity; Do you think this team is a piece or two away from making a serious run? Because it would have cost a lot of future draft picks and or prospects. We all like the idea of making a splash before the deadline, but I’m not sure I would have mortgaged the future to bolster a team that is playing the way they currently are. If Chevy did make a big move or two, and the team flamed out, he’d be getting ripped for that too. Im not saying I’d be against a change at GM, but it wouldn’t be based on the inactivity over the last week or two.

On the socials, sure. Here? With mostly Winnipeg residents? I take way more shots at Alberta than Quebec. But make fun of every province at times, including our own. Can't for the life of me understand where the outrage is coming from. No one took it too far.

Does that count as an assist for him? Asking for a friend.

Ugh…. Great pass DeMelo.

"Have a little faith?"

No I expect the Jets to do Better than Chevy did today and because we could use a little more faith (yeah I had to, the door was practically open for me to use it...and now I know what to post on twitter next time Sushi-Tonix performs on the Masked Singer)

If you missed the Chevy Presser after today's debacle, here's the link ...

The separatist utterings from Quebec are empty rhetoric. If separated, they would have to assume a portion of the national debt, constitute a separate army, have a separate currency, set up border services, negotiate trade agreements with multiple countries (including Canada) and then the BIG elephant in the room- any region within Quebec would then have the precedent to pursue independence from Quebec. Its a complete Pandora's box. Not to mention then every francophone in the rest of Canada would lose their language rights.

Maybe he should prove it by drinking it

Try less Botox next time.

Fantastic News.......going to be a blast

Weirdly specific example here...

Noted football mind, Ballsy likes the move so of course its terrible.

that's all she wrote folks. If we somehow manage to get into the playoffs, we'll be done in 5 games. Chevy should be gone this year. Bring in someone with a new vision.

It's like when reading the first part of the transaction, OMG we just got some one from TAMP . . . . ah forget it.

Are you taking about Twitter or here? Because there is no anti-French sentiment at all in this thread on MBB, unless I'm completely out to lunch here?

Buyer beware because after the deed is done you aint getting what you think you just bought.

Same thing Stefanson and co. did here with the "Trudeau Bad/Carbon Tax Relief" cheques. Vote buying is a common tactic with shitty governments and money talks to useful idiots upon whom said governments prey to retain power.

I think it's highly appropriate that a dumpster company is investing so heavily in the UCP given that it's a nonstop dumpster fire.

And hopefully 18 games outta Jeffcoat, and as much s Rose was maligned here....healthy right out of the gate with a full camp for Lawrence....we gonna be just fine on defense....we were basically playing banged up all yr, and missing key pieces...and basically still had leagues best unit

Just having Alexander and Wilson for a full year.....will be an instant internal upgrade on D

well at least we won't get shut out
