Agreed. CJOB comes as across as archaic and outdated in its delivery method. It's unfortunate because Knuckles is actually a good listen. I wonder what happens to him when the contract expires. It'd be nice to get him on TSN as a guest speaker from to time, at the very least.

Fantastic...? Not quite the word I'd use to describe game 1.

Average yards per game is your measuring stick to determine the better QB...? Comprehensive football knowledge be damned, eh.

Agreed on both counts. It's actually quite remarkable to see how little of an identity the federal NDP to have these days, if there is even an identity at all. The political environment at the federal level is so strange right now. I don't know what to make of it.

Does any GM even show his cards, though...? I don't understand why fans in Winnipeg get bent out of shape with how he operates. Why would a GM reveal his hand or allude to anything? What's to be gained?

Compared to previous instances? Yeah, I'd say so. He actually provided rationale for a change.

Agreed. I can understand the hate on him for other decisions, but in this case, he made the right and proper decision. Too bad he didn't bother see Cox's history before signing him the first time, though. He's a repeat offender. He's completely brutal as a GM.

Is it just me or are the Cons and Dippers in utter disarray but refuse to acknowledge it...? The latter hasn't appeared to be cohesive since Layton passed away. As for the Cons, they try to pass off this "big happy family" narrative but it looks like lot of discord below the surface.

I'd imagine that's the case league-wide. Cox has a history of crap, anyway. His lack of character and decency are enough to put his career in football in jeopardy, if not end it altogether. I'd like to think the league itself just slams the door in his face.

Good to see Jones take a stand. Stick a fork in Cox. He's done.

Do you not understand how corporate sponsorship works...?

Why would the Bombers even consider that...? The secondary is the least of their concern. You seem upset by making such a silly comment. Where did Jones say Cox will not be rejoining the team, BTW?

Based on what, though? Glenn hasn't a "good year" since his he was with the Stampeders.

In any case, it shows the majority of fans polled support getting him back on the team. I don't believe in karma but I sure hope it has something in store for Cox. He's a piece of garbage. Doesn't take much with a greenie. Can't expect solid QBing when the O-line meant to protect him and give him time to make his reads is a disaster. Look at the Bombers before last season to see what I mean: lousy O-lines and unproven/inexperienced QBs. A solid O-line with depth goes such a long way in having success on offense. That's only exacerbated when the QBing isn't up to par. But even the top QBs in the game can't do their jobs without having a competent group of hogs in front on them.

Bahahaha... I still can't believe that. Glad I left MTS back in 2014 (switched to Bell).

http://www.tsn.ca/cheveldayoff-willing-to-move-jets-first-round-pick-1.765209 I think management has done a solid job filling the cupboards. If the return is right for the team, this move would make sense. It's nice to see him answer some questions for a change, too.

Meh, not a surprise after Bell bought MTS. It's just a name and I'm sure most will continue to call it MTS Centre for a good while, anyway.

I love beer and I love this thread! Beer on its own is great - obviously. Beer with a good meal just elevates the greatness of both items. It's always nice to see YBC beers at the LCs back in Winnipeg, even if only from time to time. I do wish some of their more common offerings could be found back home, though. The Deadman's Creek just blew me away the first time I had it. PS - does anyone here have the Untappd app? It's a fun way to keep track of the beers you've tried.

What a strange game. 10 SOG for the Penguins... But 5 goals. Crazy.

Being up north at present (Inuvik NT, to be exact), the beer selection is obviously limited to most of the more readily available stuff (Bud, Coors, Kokanee, and the like). However, the liquor store here in Inuvik gets a fair amount of beers from Yukon Brewing Co., and they're quite good. I particularly enjoy the Ice Fog IPA, Yukon Red amber ale (pairs great with BBQ chicken), Yukon Gold English pale ale (good with a decked out burger), and when it's available here, Deadman's Creek cranberry wheat ale (which pairs incredibly well with salmon and arctic char). On a side note, I am beyond choked I'm going to miss Flatlanders this year. I specifically booked my flight home in time for the weekend it happened last year, but for whatever reason, it was bumped up two weeks and now I'll miss it. And that makes me sad.

Pretty much a dumpster fire. That's my best guess.

Which demonstrates a lack of knowledge... Otherwise known as ignorance. Seems like a sign of the times, as much as it pains me to say it. It's a vicious circle.

Okay, and...?

You're asking/stating if Brian Mulroney was a Liberal...?
