  1. TIL - MOS is just lucky. He can't evaluate talent like those on the internet. Is this Riderville?
  2. There's only a handful of people that believe this and none of them watch him practice daily.
  3. Woli? Nooooo! Grainger? Oh, I'm happy about that.
  4. Can I just raid your fridge instead?
  5. We're in a talent crisis and the clown show in Saskatchewan continues to trot out goons, year after year, hurting QB after QB, while Ambrosie opens his mouth and says, more please.
  6. Dole will be our QB2 if Collaros goes down, once he's learned the playbook and practiced for a while in this offense. But, I expect Wilson to be the short-yardage QB for the rest of the season.
  7. The most predictable AAV.
  8. 5 games left. 10 possible points. They need 4 just to get ahead of the Riders. But, they're also behind the Elks (2 points behind) and the Stamps (1 point behind). Feels like too big of a hill to climb. It would be something to see them get the crossover and go to BC/WPG on the road for the WSF. Hamilton goes to Toronto, BC, hosts the Bombers, hosts Calgary, and goes to Ottawa. Riders go to Calgary. If they lose that one, game on. Then they host Ottawa, go to Edmonton, host BC and Calgary.
  9. RWB,yup.
  10. I loved Swaggerville. It was fun. But, the quiet assassin is even better.
  11. I know. But, I'm no longer interested in that. I would download music and shows in the past but I no longer do. Artists need to be paid. I am also well paid, so I can be someone who can support the product. No judgement on those that are just trying to make ends meet. Been there, done that.
  12. A friend tried to win us tickets. Instead, I'm sitting at Lake Of The Woods brewing, enjoying a Sultana while the youngest JCon dances. Enjoy!
  13. I'm going to go Devil's Advocate here or, rather, this is how you could do it... Get TSN Direct and it includes TSN+. Gets you all CFL (enhanced games only for CTV broadcasts). Gets you some NFL but it includes NFL RedZone. Gets you part of the Olympics every two years. Gets you World Cup. Gets you at least half(?) the Jets games. Gets you tennis. CBC Gem - free - Olympics. I think it also has some weekend. NHL games? But, I'm assuming that. Sportsnet - Gets you lots more NHL and the rest of the Olympics. Blue Jays (but you didn't ask). Tennis too. That's not too bad, I guess. If you time it right and get discounted annual plans or become diligent in canceling services when you don't need them, you could save a lot of money. But, it's work and paying attention. I pay my cable bill and don't think too much. I almost subscribed to DAZN this week because they had a really good deal on but, when I discussed it with my son, he pointed out that the 9ers had 6 primetime games and the rest would be on RedZone. And, since they've cut their free boxing coverage way down, it didn't make financial sense. There's a bit of a ponzi scheme going on right now and I expect the bottom to fall out soon enough. When it does, I expect the market to correct, consolidate and end up back in a cable model of bundling everything. Everything old is new again. It's just going be delivered via the Internet.
  14. I had to give up English Premier League because I could not justify $200/year for it, when I likely won't get to watch often. That's Fubo. I had DAZN too, and kept it after the EPL left because they had the NFL and boxing. Now that I have cable and TSN+, I don't need DAZN and they don't show as many fights (included in the price). DAZN used to have cricket too, from the Caribbean and they lost that too. Streaming was costing me more than cable. I still pay for MLB and TSN+ as addons.
  15. And, I didn't feel it in 234 (front row). Was that when you had full sun in your face? I watched the flags all game and they mostly just sat still with a few gusts.
  16. I moved from Bell to Shaw (Rogers).
  17. I had cut the cord but got a way better deal when I switched providers and added cable. I now pay less for cable and internet than I was paying for just internet previously, and now I maintain far fewer streaming services. I'm saving money. But, I don't have time to watch tv, so it's all theoretical.
  18. I think they're operating under the same agreement. Bell (TSN, CTV) probably worked with the CFL to make it happen. But, advertisers probably want it fairly exclusive, so that they know who is watching (and not switching between TSN and CTV).
  19. He's been sitting around without a contract for how long? If someone was going to pay him this year, they would have.
  20. Next home games are Tuesday, and, if necessary Wednesday and Thursday. Went to a game in the first round. Too many other commitments, including baseball tonight, to get to this round. But, I hope I can get to the game Tuesday.
  21. I bet they take another run at it.
  22. His reception to target ratio has gone down every year.
  23. I wonder if health insurance will eventually cover these?
  24. That was really kind of them. Good luck at your new school, iHeart.
