JCon

I urge everyone to not pay extra for the private meet and greet.

Hey TSN,

We don't do this, so it must be fake. There are plenty around here who will tell you that. Wish we could be more like Calgary...

Wait, you're betting on the game or the marriage?

You can check it out here: https://winnipeg.kanopy.com/ You can also access Hoopla and Overdrive. More info here: https://guides.wpl.winnipeg.ca/e/movies But they're not as good as Kanopy.

TV thread? Movie thread? Not really sure but I have some things I wanted to share... Netlfix released season 3 of Hip Hop Evolution early last month and I forgot to post that here. I really enjoyed this season but I've enjoyed ALL the seasons. Great story telling. A big part of this season is the rise of the Jiggy era. Even if you're not a big hip-hop fan, I think the storytelling and cultural relevance may be interesting to a lot of people. Along the same theme, I recently watched Nas: Time Is Illmatic https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3549508/ It's documentary of Nas' life leading up to the release of Illmatic from 2014. It was certainly interesting to me but I don't consider it a great documentary. I watched it on Kanopy. A reminder to those in Winnipeg that, with a Winnipeg Public Library card (account), you get access to 5 shows (credits) per month on Kanopy. There is some weird and cool stuff on there. If you haven't checked it out recently, you should. They've added some old catalogues. I finally watched Chinatown, which, embarrassingly, I had not seen before. Also on Kanopy now, Country Music (A Film by Ken Burns) has been added. I'm very excited to watch this one. I'm a big fan of Ken Burns and his documentaries.

I don't get the argument either. Looking back over the past 20 years of first overalls, I see 5 with Stanley Cup rings? Fleury, Ovechkin, Crosby, Kane and Stamkos. Unless I'm missing someone? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_first_overall_NHL_draft_picks I see more duds on the list. Picking high helps but getting that first overall is too random. They have a good team coming up, they just need some patience and luck.

I like Dunigan crazy, not MBT crazy. I like crazy wild, not crazy tin foil hat.

No, it doesn't. It sounds like a desperate fan with conspiracy theories.

She's smart enough to throw everything back at him. I'm not worried about her. She would make a good president.

I see why you wouldn't want to debate with that sort of opinion. Clearly Clerks, with it's raw, docu style approach, was the best.

No mention of the fans in Trouba's speech? I'm definitely investing in pitchforks.

Holy Jeebus... If that's true, I'm putting all my money into pitchfork futures. I could get rich off this site alone.

Fishing. Reflecting. Given the weather, probably no longer dining on patios.

Has anyone commented on the O-line this week? I'm wondering if we'll see Gray back in. EDIT: I've checked the Twitter feeds for most of the usual suspects but no one has mentioned anything about the O-line.

And so was Alex Wright!

It also became all talk. The only ones that were really wrestling were Norman Smiley and a bunch of jobbers.

Won't matter. It's going to go to the Supreme Court soon enough and the likes of Kavanaugh will protect Trump. It's all part of the fix.

Read the thread I posted about it.

Absolutely agree!

Huh? I'm not sure what you're on about. I was responding directly to someone loathing the fact that Calgary brought Ball. So, whatever point you think you're making, you're not. It is getting tiresome though.

Very clearly not my stance and anyone suggesting it is must be an idiot. My stance is that bringing in people that have been sitting on a couch all season is not going to have an impact on our team.

For transparency, the Bombers added six to the PR last week. I guess that's not trying to l get better. Not comment from you because that doesn't fit your opinion that the Bombers aren't trying. But, please, who would cut to bring in Ball? For transparency of course.

They brought in one guy who's going on their roster. An LB who hasn't played this year. They've also added a RB to their practice roster who couldn't get a sniff here. If only we had more guys that were sitting on their couch last week on our team!! Yeesh.
