Great day for Canadian football, wish the best to all these kids.

Once again Mother Hen to the rescue. Sometimes you really know how to suck the fun and energy out of a fan forum where most are just sharing their opinion shooting the shite knowing none of this matters in the grand scheme of things. Jeebus.

If you can explain how the Coyotes are getting a second brand new arena in 20 years.

It is easier to stick around on a shitty roster

Chevy vs the Jets Fans

We've had vaccine mandates for a hundred years and they work. The science is definitive.

Both to blame. 26 and 55 believing they are gutting it out putting it all on the table by staying on the ice far too long, playing as an individual not buying into the system, Bowness to blame by not sitting them and being lax with them. Both are all talk (it’s all about the team) no show (actions that don’t match those words).

There's been rumblings for what 4-5 years about our locker room being toxic and having major issues. Doesn't this reaction just confirm that?

Yeah we talked about this when Ferguson first posted that. Not only is it inaccurate (Eli had already re-signed by that time) but choosing 6 years of data is pretty random and arbitrary. If he uses 5 years, the stats are way different.

The Bombers have done well at the draft under Walters but it's interesting to note that the team has the second lowest amount of draft picks from the last 6 years still on the team.

No kidding. He was somewhat guarded, like he doesn’t know what to do. Relying on previous years successes way too often, which does give the impression he didnt think change was needed. Remarkably, he was happy they made the playoffs, even if they just slide in as the last team to enter the post season, made no mention they were the first team out of the playoffs. He was definitely proud they participated and I thought, “low bar Chevy”. The presser was NOT encouraging to any degree.

Chevy is bad at his job and TNSE doesn't give a rat's ass about winning, only making $.

Agreed. It might be a challenge to Chippy or Chevy that it’s “me or them”. Now the fans know that the coach knows there are underachievers. The coach has made it clear to Management that there are players that aren’t performing. The most valued is imo is 37. I’m ok with 80 leaving, but want a great return. 55 has shown he’s not a leader and is selfish. I’d guess some value is there because of point production. No one will take 26 - reputation as a cancer - could have been traded in 2019 but chipper said no.

Watched about 10 minutes of his presser ,got so pissed off I shut it off. He's delusional if he thinks this team doesn't need changes.

Lots of guys coming up on UFA status so it's prime time for trades.

No player on this club right now should feel comfortable about the future with this team....Rick couldn't say that but I get the feeling that's what Bowness was really saying after we exited the season so badly.....I look for big changes in the offseason....it's inevitable now and long overdue....Sometimes it takes real gumption and balls to really tell it like it is....Time to separate the wheat from the chaffe on this club TrueNorth....long overdue

helleybuck got a low grade. worst goalie in the first round. eek. maybe one of the players bowness was talking about. The team suffers from " Uneasiness; discomfort; specifically, an indefinite feeling of uneasiness, often a preliminary symptom of a serious malady" malaise!

It seems to be an integral feature of humanity that there will always be those who choose to misuse and even abuse anything intended to be good and helpful to us- be it food, sexuality, religion, education and yes, even the internet. It has allowed feeble and diseased minds to congregate and exert disproportionate influences on each other and the societies they live in. Some people in positions of power have learned to manipulate their followers to aggrandize themselves. It is the price of living in societies.

We have our Canadian versions of Mikes and Marcies as well. Mocking sane people with smiley emoticons while they punch into their keyboards Deep State, Bloated Government overreach, echo chambers, libtards, radical lefties-controlling us sheep, dictatorship, thought police, woke, antifa, corrupt, pandemic was a hoax, wake up why do you have to be so divisive, these are opinions facts just as valid as yours here look at these links I’m posting etc etc etc. Yup we should respect people like Mike in this video who is just offering another side can’t we just all get along. If anything being Woke has actually helped create people like Mike as well because no one’s feelings are to be hurt.

This guy's mind is so open that his brain apparently fell out.

It's like that old punchline: 'The captain was sober today.'

NFL draft is done, now to see if anyone gets picked up as a free agent.

My theory is that most of the systems would work more or less ok, if they were uncorrupted by greed, But that seems to be impossible for us humans. Greed. going to be the end of us.

Thanks, as always to Our Man @EdTait for all his work, desperately needed through a painfully long offseason!

I have a pretty sweet collection of past and current jerseys and pants (wish I could post a pic on here). I think I have over 40 jerseys. My fav is Buck Pierces 2011 GC worn jersey and i have a Kevin Tom Canada game worn as well. I am always looking to buy anything anyone wants to sell lol.

I would think every GM’s ultimate objective is to win it all. At some point every GM has to be held accountable for not achieving that expectation. You would think. But apparently to some it’s actually an unreasonable expectation for never ending reasons. Maybe the slogan for some NHL teams should be hey you’re lucky you have a NHL team, you’re welcome for the entertainment, make sure you don’t critique the team with your non expert I’ve never played pro hockey analysis and don’t hold any expectation we are going to win it all because we’ve been set up to fail except of course in turning a profit but if we don’t hit our profit margins because it is a business and not really a sport we will make sure we subtly tell you you are not doing your job so we may move the team if you don’t do your job. I think this slogan is a bit long.

Not sure where this belongs, but courtesy of @holoman... "a Bombers legend"

Yup, and Eli is back on the roster as well.

Mike Kelly for Jets coach!! He and Wheeler can handle everything internally....

We also draft later in rounds

Goosen retired...kongbo and ford in NFL..desjarlais went..then when came back we were capped out...exume..chungh..went to play closer to home...Couture we essentially replaced...and several of other picks on other rosters...seems to me we drafted pretty well

I am going to cut Chevy some slack on this. He always keeps it close to the vest. No sense adding fuel to the fire with Bowness or the players right now. Wait till everyone has cooled down and go from there. No other realistic way to play this.

Mike Riley probably holds the record for coaching in the most football leagues.

“I thought we accomplished what we wanted when we started the year…” Yikes! Winnipeg is 25th of 32 teams since 2012 in terms of playoff games won. He’s ok with that. Relying on 2018 Went to conference finals, beat Edmonton in 4 straight. Sounds like Dave Ritchies “check my record”. Respecting Bones comments on pride and pushback, said there was pushback earlier and that the players are proud. That’s a different assessment than the coach. Minute 40 ish. is there change that is required? “We’re gonna look at all those things”. Yikes. that’s a 12 year GM giving his assessment. Looks like they won’t sell many new season tickets, forcing the team to move to Houston, eventually. Net capital gain by Chippy and company of 600-700 million dollars.

Pretty good record especially considering the years previous, when we wandering around in the wilderness and didnt know a player with talent, from a rock in the desert.....Which brings me to a couple of days from now, and I know Kyle and Mike O have some talented pics all ready for the future, and maybe one that will start right away...Just think back to the days of sleepy Joe and his ineptness, and you just know we're in superior hands

Ick

for the first time in three years Tampa Bay will NOT be going to the Stanley cup finals (this works better with Captions)

Yes, that Peter Young, he’s recovering from chemo to the throat. He doesn’t post like he needs to protect the players or True North.

You ain't seen crazy Russian crap yet. Warehouses of supposed war goods for the Russian army far away from the front lines have burned to the ground apparently because the Russian suppliers who had manufactured and stored for the military were torched because although the goods had been paid for were were nonexistent. The fires occurred right after they were requisitioned. Russian officers demand money from their soldiers or they will be sent to the heaviest fighting, sometimes with WW2 weapons and little ammunition. Families of dead Russian soldiers are given a certificate for a Lada to be delivered at some point instead of a pension. And that's only a small sample.

"The Russian special vessel SS-750 was near the Nord Stream pipes four days before the pipes were blown up on September 26 last year. The special vessel is designed to carry out operations under the sea and has a mini submarine of the AS-26 Priz type on board. The Norwegian Defense Command confirms in a response to a document inspection that 26 photos of the Russian vessel were taken from a Danish patrol boat that was in the area east of Bornholm on 22 September 2022. "It's incredibly interesting. The SS-750 is a special vessel that is designed precisely for underwater operations,' says the Swedish researcher, Russia expert and intelligence expert Joakim von Braun. Jacob Kaarsbo, who is a senior analyst at the think tank Europe and previously worked for 15 years in the Defense Intelligence Service, believes that the information "sheds light on what was going on in the area in the days before". "The SS-750 is the most interesting vessel to confirm, because we know it has the capacity to carry out such an operation," says Jacob Kaarsbo. Information has previously revealed that the Norwegian Defense Command is in possession of 112 images of Russian vessels in the area. But this is the first time that the defense has confirmed that it is the specific Russian vessel SS-750 with the mini-submarine on board. At the same time, the Norwegian Defense Command refuses to provide access to the photos of the Russian special vessel, as the photos are "of an intelligence nature" and "are part of the intelligence work". Several Russian naval vessels The German media T-Online and the open source intelligence analyst Oliver Alexander have previously described that the special vessel SS-750 was one of a total of six Russian naval vessels that may have been in the area in the days leading up to the blasting of the pipelines. They based this, among other things, on information from anonymous sources and satellite images that showed that SS-750 had left the port of Kaliningrad at the same time as, among others, the vessels Aleksandr Frolov and SB-123. These satellite photos, along with AIS data from a tugboat, indicate that SS-750 sailed from Kaliningrad at 00:22 on 21 September 2022. AIS transmitters are typically used by larger vessels to supplement radars. They send signals about the ship's name, number, direction, draft and speed and can thus be used to map the movement of vessels. The SS-750 sailed even without the AIS on. However, the tug Alexandr Frolov had its AIS on when departing from the Russian naval port. AIS data from this vessel shows that the convoy of naval vessels headed for Bornholm, but north of Poland the tug's AIS was also switched off. Until now, it has been assumed that the SS-750 and the five other vessels continued to the area where the Nord Stream pipes were blown up a few days later. Now the Defense Command has confirmed that the SS-750 was observed in the area.

No player, not one, has said they were better than Vegas players. And in other tweets. Pretty clear what the fans, they pay to get the bills paid, think… is it possible that the players need to listen fans?

Maybe if Wheeler doesn’t like what bones said, after a terrible effort, he could quit. Problem solved.

Or it could be this: (also from reddit) damnburglar ·1 hr. ago I always tell people Wab Kinew once pushed me in No Frills but I feel like I should clarify. It was a Wednesday—the Lord’s day—and I had a hankering for the holiest of gourds: the spaghetti squash. I perused the produce aisle with only one thing on my mind when lo and behold Wab appeared before me, holding what would turn out to be the last spaghetti squash. He caught me looking covetously at his prize and his demeanour immediately shifted darkly. Before I knew it, I was lying face first in the discounted kale, unsure of what happened. Upon reviewing the security footage with the store manager, it seems that Wab was never there, but apparently neither was I. The mystery of this phantom memory has haunted me for years, and my story likely serves as a means for my mind to cope with whatever trauma I experienced that day. I hope that clarifies things…. but please do not let this extensive clarification distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.
