  1. Scheer's argument has no merit whatsoever. It's a reckless attempt to politicize something that shouldn't be politicized - at all. The new food guide isn't about an agenda... unless getting people to eat healthier for a better quality of life somehow qualifies as such. And where does it state anywhere to not eat any meat? Oh, yeah... it doesn't. (https://food-guide.canada.ca/en/healthy-eating-recommendations/make-it-a-habit-to-eat-vegetables-fruit-whole-grains-and-protein-foods/eat-protein-foods/) Whose opinion matters more on the subject of nutrition: educated, knowledgeable nutritional health experts or an ignorant, self-interested politician? The answer seems pretty obvious. https://food-guide.canada.ca/en/
  2. LOL Flames got bent over.
  3. That's a really nice deal for him and the Rangers. Damn...
  4. And yet, he can manage to use common sense when it comes to an issue such as this: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/scheer-trump-trudeau-racist-tweets-1.5215831 Good on him.
  5. Is there even a point in engaging? I mean, look at that ridiculous signature. No bias at all. Every now and then he comes out from under his bridge, makes moronic comments that have nothing do with the current topic in the thread, and dumps on "them Libtards," never making a lick of sense whatsoever or contributing to the conversation in any meaningful way. It's just a feeble attempt at pot-stirring. And it's as pathetic as defending the CHOTUS.
  6. This is absolutely awesome: https://apolloinrealtime.org/11/
  7. Uh... Walker has 388 receiving yards to Green's 201. He's also got two majors to Green's 0.
  8. Aaaaaand another turnover. LOL
  9. Crazy... Despite how awful the Argos are, they're still in this game.
  10. Like his federal counterpart, he doesn't know how to pick his battles. Better hope Alberta doesn't have a provincial food guide...
  11. I thought we'd got past this type of xenophobic nonsense but apparently, history remains doomed to repeat itself. Disgusting times. And now the backpedalling begins: https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/trump-send-her-back-attempts-distance-1.5216657 He's clearly just a senile old man.
  12. The computer guy, right?
  13. Fair enough. I wish he would've stayed there, too. He was a key asset to the O-line and I liked his game, his hardnosed nastiness in particular. It was disappointing to see him go. I just don't see a scenario in which he ever leaves the Lions. He got a hefty raise and is back in his hometown. IIRC, he signed with the Lions for three years.
  14. Unless the boss is a greenie, I'm sure he'll understand. Priorities, man!
  15. He's not coming back to Winnipeg. Barring road games for the Lions, anyway.
  16. I mean, he also returned home to be closer with his family and friends while still playing the sport he loves. Hard to fault him for that. It's the schadenfreude-esque tone to the comment, IMO. And saying he fits in well with that "group of pylons"... It sort of insinuates Chungh is one, too. And we all know that's just hot bullshit.
  17. Meh... I'd say that 2011 defense and a pretty feeble East Division (the Bombers' division record was 7-3) played more of a role in that championship berth than who was wearing the headset on the sidelines. And let's not forget they got their asses handed to them in that Grey Cup game by a better, far more balanced team.
  18. Couldn't agree more. Massive blunder is certainly overstating it, IMO. I just didn't get the timing of the decision or Mack's justification for it (to "salvage the season"). It's a bit of shame how it all unfolded. Burke was an awesome DC and since that whole debacle, he's basically been done with the game.
  19. I just don't see what Mack hoped to gain by doing it when he did. His inability to put together a stable, competitive roster played just as much of a role as LaPolice's inept coaching. Rarely has firing a HC during the season produced a positive result, especially when it's with a completely green HC taking his spot. It's like placing a band-aid on a knife wound.
  20. How was canning LaPolice 8 games into the 2012 season the right call? Especially when all Mack did was hand the reins over to full-blown rookie HC in Burke? While I agree LaPolice isn't HC material, I'm not sure what Mack hoped to accomplish by firing him when he did.
  21. I wouldn't go that far. There's room for improvement and the players and coaches have acknowledged that. But major issues is overstating it. And it helps when the team has a lead going into the final frame. It isn't common for offenses to continue airing out the ball when leading the game, anyway. The ground game becomes more crucial when it's time to start chewing up the clock and close out a game. This is especially common with how LaPolice runs his offense.
  22. https://www.cfl.ca/2019/07/15/quarterback-index-early-case-mop/ Yardage total aside (and who cares?), he's getting the job done. And without Matthews. It'd be nice to see this offense stretch the field more but I like TDs and wins more, to be honest.
  23. Hervey grasping at straws... Desperate times on the Left Coast.
