2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition
JCon replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Evans says he wants to test FA. So, either he or Masoli would be available on February 8th. Either would love a chance to play here, I bet.. Neither is better than Collaros but we wouldn't completely fall apart under either. -
Do we know what the presser is about today?

It's time someone take one of his pillows and put him out of his misery. Of all the bonkers stuff he pushes, the Supreme Court stuff is the most easily debunked. No one can present to the Supreme Court until it goes through the lower circuits. The thing I don't understand is that he seems to be doing the backwards grift, where he is spending his own time and money to do this.

You pretty much have to offer them 2 or 3 years to lure them away. We did it before we could generate our talent. Like on the football field, where one strength help feeds another pushing the whole team up, it's the same with FA - the better you are as a team and org, the better you can retain your talent. -
Forbes is pay-to-place, as far as I know. I've blocked it as a feed, so that I don't accidentally click on their "articles".

Biggest issues my family is having navigating non-Covid healthcare right now are: Every healthcare system is overwhelmed. Too few docs, nurses and techs are available for life-saving, urgent care and diagnostics. The illness presents with two Covid-related symptoms, which means that every time we access healthcare, we can't simply go for the required tests because the assumption is that Covid is present. It's necessary to protect the system and the workers but it makes everything far more complicated... So, we need to use urgent/emergency care, where they can test and get results quickly but also allows for other testing and whatnot during that process. This means we are an additional burden on the system, somewhat unnecessarily. Only the patient is allowed into the hospital/clinic, which means that support cannot be offered. There are some areas of healthcare that are operating as normal as possible. Thankfully, we fall into that category. But, whenever you deviate outside, which includes a big piece of our navigation, Covid is making things near impossible.

I wonder if Denver is making him an offer? -
Some people would rather die and not get vaccinated, than admit they were wrong. It's that anit-vaxx population that disturbs me most. And, I believe, that makes up most of the remaining anti-vaxxers.

I've checked everywhere I know to look, I can't find it. TSN does not have it on demand. CFL does not have it yet. Even YouTube doesn't have a ripped stream right now. -
Agreed. I was thinking of it in terms of the healthcare system. If you get really sick from Covid, you're probably going to change your mind on vaccinations and get the shot. If you don't get sick, it's probably not going to push you to get it. But, if we're trying to protect the healthcare system, those that don't have adverse short-term outcomes, won't continue to put a strain on it. Covid-zero has never been the goal of any level of gov't in most Western countries, so I doubt we'll ever see a push for 100% vaccination requirement. I know China is currently pursuing a Covid-zero policy, which, I understand, is like whack-a-mole.

I think it's as simple as enforcing the restrictions they put in. And, soon (very soon), everyone who is unvaccinated will get Covid anyhow. It's too rampant at this point.

2021/22 - CFL Offseason - Non-Back-to-Back Grey Cup Champion Thread

After suspensions, they're probably right. -
I don't like it either. I don't want the govt foricng anyone to get a medical procedure they don't want. Of course, they should not be free to infect others, which is why I support the govt restrictions.
-
I am getting very worried again that normal, life saving, healthcare won't be possible as the hospitals are overrun with Covid patients. We have no place to send them, everywhere is messed up.
-
They're too "radical" for suggesting that gov't should be there for the people and not for the corporations and mega-rich.

Imagine thinking Kane is the answer to any question other than the biggest dbag in the league.

Right, but Bighiill also knows that there is value staying here in Winnipeg. He could make more upfront elsewhere but balances that with the value of staying in Winnipeg. He'll need to to take a discount to earn more money in the longer term. -

First beer snake I saw was during cricket. The Ozzies have some CRAZY long beer snakes. But, you can have matches that last 12 hours in a day, so the opportunity to build is incredible. He won't. And, I don't think Walters would expect him to. -

No, just that he knows his value and he knows the value of Winnipeg. He's balancing two things but won't take an unnecessary discount.
