Nah, he would've complained about the route, the crowd, the weather, the speeches, or everyone having too much fun over an "average" season. Parades are just for us idiots (or ID 10 T*) who want to enjoy our beloved CFL team celebrating its first championship in nearly three decades. * that's some Big Burgess Brain originality for sure

Meanwhile, in Alabamberta: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/emergency-injunction-government-covid-public-health-orders-1.5849157 Unbelievable. I hope the judge shoots down this nonsense while also letting these clowns know how thoughtless and inconsiderate they are.

Wouldn't an average CFL regular season record, by definition, be 9-9 (.500)? The 2019 Bombers were 11-7 (.611), two games above average. In other words, they were better than average. And then capped it all off with a perfect playoff record, winning the Grey Cup and ending that lame-ass drought. Kinda makes you wonder who's really the idiot here...

Flynn should probably just shut the **** up already. What a clueless ******* idiot.

This bus incident happened literally a block from my house (I can see the stretch of road from my bedroom window). The entire southbound side of Henderson was blocked off by WPS when I drove home from work just shortly after 9 and it's basically a crime scene. It sounds like a passenger attacked the driver, who then suffered a heart attack, the bus veered off the road and into a front yard, and the assailant has since fled the scene. Eight people were taken to hospital and one is in unstable condition. This **** is beyond unsettling.

Another L for the Great Oppression Party.

What a ******* scumbag lawyer.

Really unfortunate news.

Well said. I don't think anyone should take away from his accomplishments in his first season as a starter. To suggest he performed well isn't some insult, either. He played well and did his job competently, which is to say in an efficient and capable way. What isn't objective about that opinion is beyond me. He's got the tools to be a starter in the CFL and his 2019 performance indicates that. But to label that great or outstanding is something with which I don't agree. Furthermore, I question if he's in the MOP discussion if even one other starting QB in the West Division stays healthy for the balance of the 2019 season (Trevor Harris, for example). Or if the tainted test with Harris doesn't happen (there's a high likelihood he's MOP if that doesn't take place). This is merely me speaking hypothetically, to be clear. Circumstances outside of his performance helped his case and he was nominated seemingly by default (not dissimilar from Homer's brief career as an astronaut). And FWIW, I felt Fajardo's teammate William Powell got snubbed. He was outstanding as the team's starting tailback (1,200+ combined yards, 14 total TDs, and very solid blocking) and arguably the second best in the league presently. I can't help but wonder how Fajardo would've fared without him, which is really no different than what Harris had done for Nichols during his tenure here (it's worth pointing out when considering the criticism Nichols received as the starting QB for the Bombers).

Starting 17 games and playing in all 18 that season, he played pretty well and put up good numbers; competent is a perfect descriptor. One competent/good season does not a career make, though. And his MOP nomination seemed to inflate not only his own head but his fervent green supporters in the rectangle province. IIRC, he was the only starting QB to not sustain an injury in 2019. All that said, I'm not sold on the guy. And nobody looking at him objectively should be, either.

What a sickening display of ignorance and delusion. It's going be a very good day when this bible-thumping assclown is out of office.

And cue the damage control: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/erin-otoole-residential-schools-comments-1.5844307 The CPC sure picked the right guy to lead their party. Nailed it.

Erin O'Toole is at it again: https://globalnews.ca/news/7524370/otoole-residential-schools-eduction-horrible/ The irony of crying about cancel culture when the residential schools were, at its very core, meant to cancel an entire culture. At least Harper had the decency to call it for what it was. O'Toole then proceeds to take a shot at "lefty radicals," a petulant move right out of the alt-right playbook: The video was made for the Ryerson Conservatives Club, whose members have taken it upon themselves to defend Egerton Ryerson's legacy. This take from Billy Kelly hits the nail on the head, IMO: https://globalnews.ca/news/7525232/erin-otoole-residential-schools/ This historian also offers some objective insight:

Considering the speeds and supposed reliability, the initial upfront cost seems worth it. $129 a month is pretty reasonable but keep in mind that pricing will likely change as more and more users get on StarLink over time. This is huge for rural/remote populations across the country where access to reliable and fast internet remains mostly impossible with current land-based technology.

What's even worse is how the provincial gov't intends to outlaw doggystyle in the rectangle province. The argument being you never turn your back on family.

I knew Chavez was behind this tomfoolery!

FWIW, healthcare workers were selected, alongside Dr. Fauci, as Time's Guardians of The Year: At the end of the day, it's a magazine cover. It doesn't necessarily undermine or disrespect anyone.

That still doesn't make sense. The defense is, at worst, the same as last season; if not slightly improved. Stastny is an improvement in the top 6, too. And yet, this goof and his "simulation" has the Jets doing significantly worse. It doesn't really add up.
