  1. Pure garbage.
  2. I can't wait for this week to be over. Some people are so ****ing exhausting, they just suck the life out of this place.
  3. They must believe that the risk is worth the reward. They must be hearing that he could cement his NFL potential with a few more games experience. It's all about the upfront money.
  4. People are confusing two things - Rourke's potential and Rourke's resume, Resume - has none. Potential - almost limitless
  5. Rourke is literally the only storyline this week. We already did our work and this game means nothing.
  6. Very fine people.
  7. Yup. People will leave and so will advertisers.
  8. Forecast: 10C (feels like 7) at kick off, with winds out of the SW of 19kmh gusting to 30. By the end, 9, feels like 6. Gorgeous fall weather.
  9. This is my shocked face:
  10. Are you ready for the playoffs? How's your GIF game? It's time to... Cheer loudly! Bring the noise! Fly the flag! Take the field! Last chance to get ready before chasing another Cup! Let's get it on! LFG!!!!!!!!!!
  11. Who: Domesticated short-hairs @ The Back-to-back, reigning, defending, Grey Cup Champions! What: CFL Football When: Tonight, October 28th, 7:30 Central Where: Fort Hew, Deep in Bomber Territory TSN/RDS CJOB Why: FOOOOOOTBALL!!! LFG!!!!!
  12. Heck no. Just tax them like a business. That's what they are.
  13. Tax the churches.
  14. They've also added some episodes from Age of Persuasion!
  15. My regular listens are... Ongoing History of New Music - I could listen to Alan Cross read the phonebook. It's really a radio show but it's been a staple of my listening for 20 years. Podcasts just make it more convenient. Stuff You Should Know - it's pretty light and fun. Some baseball podcasts that no one is interested in - Stark, Rosenthal, Olney, and some others Some soccer podcasts that no one is interested in. History of Rome - Mike Duncan. I've started it for the third time. I've also listened to his Revolutions podcast but it never grabbed me the same way. Although, I did enjoy the French Revolution. Under The Influence - Terry O'Reilly. Fantastic look into the world of advertising. Also a CBC radio show but more convenient as a podcast. Was Age of Persuasion until they changed the name back in 2012. The Herle Burly - great show on politics. Although, I don't listen every week. There are a few more that are science related that I don't listen to frequently but on occasion. And, a short series, which was AWESOME! It's called Wind of Change and here's the synopsis: It’s 1990. The Berlin Wall just fell. The Soviet Union is on the verge of collapse. And the soundtrack to the revolution is one of the best selling songs of all time, the metal ballad “Wind of Change,” by the Scorpions. Decades later, journalist Patrick Radden Keefe heard a rumor: the song wasn’t written by the Scorpions. It was written by the CIA. This is his journey to find the truth. Wind of Change is an Original Series from Pineapple Street Studios, Crooked Media and Spotify.
  16. Drew Edwards, who started it, was good. Totally Ticat centrist but a quality reporter. And, he could edit. He took Dunk under his wing, who couldn't write but could get scoops. Now, it's just a fanzine, without an editor.
  17. Katz did tons too, though. He just did it the most crooked way possible. Katz and Bowman have tapped us out for financing, which makes Gillingham's promises to spend big on infrastructure sus. He won't be able to service the debt, even with an increase in property taxes. Plus, our services are so depleted for funds now, we need a tax increase just to get back to where we were.
  18. Murray landed at the perfect time. Mayor Sue did all the hard lifting, changing City Hall to allow for more power as the mayor. Murray did a ton because he could. And, we'll just ignore his horrible time as MPP and all the complaints about him.
  19. He's not Murray, which is a start. But, yes, we're in for another 8 years of mediocrity and not revamping city hall. Mediocrity is better than anything Murray would have brought. And, god forbid, Klein. Empty suit, trash.
  20. I assume we're just going to throw out the most vanilla offense and defense. Everyone gets reps. No new schemes, no new plays, no new wrinkles.
