option = mandatory around here, or haven't you been paying attention?

If the option year isn't really an option as you are suggesting, then it wouldn't be a 2+1 contract... it would just be a 3 year contract.

Slightly different, but once more for those of you in the back who didn't hear right the first time: option [ op-shuhn ]SHOW IPA noun 1. the power or right of choosing. 2. something that may be or is chosen; choice. 3. the act of choosing. 4. an item of equipment or a feature that may be chosen as an addition to or replacement for standard equipment and features: And this further definition of an Option Year: Option Year means the additional twelve-month period that is added to the term of the Standard Player Contract of certain Rookies if the option provided for in Article V, Section 4 is exercised by the Team. Bold emphasis is mine.

I'll just leave this here: optional [ op-shuh-nl ]SHOW IPA adjective left to one's choice; not required or mandatory:Formal dress is optional. leaving something to choice.

Option does not equal mandatory... that's all that really needs to be said about any of this ridiculous argument.

Josh Ross makes some sense too though because they had him on all of the early season Spotify commercials during games, so they likely expect CFL fans to recognize him from that.

You seem angry... 🤣

Pretty sure Winnipeg was pushing for either 2024 or 2025.... 2025 gets us to year 3 of Collaros' contract, so that will be the one to break Edmonton's record of 5 in a row. I believe that the league generally tries to alternate between East and West every year, but with the pandemic, that got all messed up too.

Sorry to hear that. It sucks that there are people out there who think like this because it's dangerous for everybody. My question would be, what did it take for him to become radicalized like that? I don't see that as a reason to not have restrictions again if they are warranted, but I understand that there are still many people who would refuse to follow them, just like the first time and a big part of why things got so out of control with the pandemic.

The problem was that there was confusion over what was a right (freedom) vs what was a privilege. Being able to go into a private business is a privilege, and being required to wear a mask to exercise that privilege is not a violation of anyone's rights. None of the restrictions took away anyone's rights, it may have limited their privileges, but that was based on their choices (ie. not wearing a mask or not getting vax'd). Choices have consequences, and losing a privilege is not a loss of rights or freedom.

Which isn't a bad thing until someone takes power and corrupts it into a dictatorship. The "communism" that the western world has been fighting for years isn't true communism.

Fair enough, I know of the show, but I didn't know the characters' names... The fact that you threw a picture of Khan in there really threw me.

WTF does Ricardo Motalban have to do with Rourke? At least the pic that Super Duper Negatron posted was of a guy names Rourke, but this makes no sense...

I believe that the far-left is extreme socialism... everybody help everyone else and bring everybody up... sounds dangerous.

Option 5) Rourke is Wolverine If he comes out of this without further injury, then I think that should be his new nickname.

Haven't you heard Coach O'Shea, we don't have any backups on our team, if they've started a game, they are starters.

It bothers me every time TS shows the Top X catches in the CFL and that one has consistently been at number 1 for that reason. I thought at the time and every other time I've seen it that his elbow landed on the line out of bounds before his feet touched.

I'm not saying that this is how you end up with Skynet... but I feel like this is the beginning of how you could end up with Skynet... https://www.gpb.org/news/shots-health-news/2022/10/14/brain-cells-in-lab-dish-learn-play-pong-and-offer-window#:~:text=Neurons Play Pong&text=A dish of living brain,reports in the journal Neuron.

They do, that's how they determine who gets to work the playoff games and the Grey Cup

It was close, but it was out and that's what Andre called as well.

The ball was outside the end zone when he let it go... Watched it back a couple times to confirm.

I'm fully convinced that he's translating the calls in his head on the fly and that's why it sounds like he's fumbling over his words. I like that he explains some of the more oddball penalties sometimes though so we know what's going on... Even if he fluvs it a bit sometimes.

My concern with the way the Provincial Conservative governments have been running is to hack and slash at the health care programs to the point where they can point to them and say "see how broken the health care system is, we need to privatize it in order to fix it". For some reason, they seem to think that the American model of health care is the better way to go, and all evidence world wide points to the contrary. A healthy public health system is the best option for society as a whole.

Going to get mine tomorrow. Booked an appointment at Shoppers Drug Mart for it yesterday.

I think the part that they saw that worked was it won an election down there and all they are looking for is to have power for the sake of being able to say that they have power. There's no platform because it doesn't matter, if they can spew garbage and win, that's all that they want.
