  1. Man, people think I'm cranky???
  2. More people live in Southern Ontario than the entire Maritimes & it isn't chronically depressed financially like the Atlantic Provinces are. London is like Hartford with a lot of insurance companies as well as the computer tech businesses centred there. London has a metropolitan population of 543,000 while the metro population of the Kitchener- Waterloo area is 575,000. In Halifax, with the price of fuel, how many fans from New Brunswick or PEI will drive over 200 miles to watch a game? That pre Covid financial model "to be like the Roughriders" probably won't work anymore. Not that it would have in the first place. I don't understand this need to put a team in Halifax where it is almost guaranteed to fail with such little support from government & business.
  3. The place is a dump. People hate it.
  4. The lowest.
  5. This is how stupid things are in Alberta. Two months ago our stupid UCP puppet CMOH Deena Hinshaw advised anyone over the age of 70 & up get their 2nd, 3rd or 4th booster shot as protection was waning. I'm 66, soon to be 67 at the end of the month. Myself & others have been waiting to be eligible for a booster but crickets from Hinshaw. She never talks about it whenever she now decides to have a news conference. It seems Monkeypox is the new Covid taking up her time. The stupidity is my wife & I will be in Winnipeg next week for a family funeral & I booked us in to get our Pfizer booster shots at a Shoppers in Charleswood Tuesday night. Y'all may hate Heather Stephanson as your Premier but your Conservatives in Mainitoba have nothing over the Yahoos & assclowns running Alberta.
  6. There wasn't a lot of time to do anything. He was under a lot of pressure from the Stamps D on that series. I'm not going to say that was a bonehead play. Or bad clock management. He almost made that last throw.
  7. Who's that Calvillo guy in Vegas? The rookie won't get 200 yards passing in his career. He'll never play long enough to be the CFL's all time leading passer.
  8. What did he do for you to say that? Maier can really drill the ball. He looked great out there. He got lucky on that one lame duck pass. Still doesn't have a lot of experience. But he'll only get better.
  9. That tells me his shoulder is still an issue as he's getting tired throwing the ball.
  10. So much whining about how c-c-c-cold it is to watch a game in November. Hell, the Bombers sold out last season on December 6th!! with the threat of a blizzard. I liked the 14 game season. I thought it was perfect. Not as much of a grind on the players. Season a month shorter but I was okay with that.
  11. Jake Maier is on the bench but Dickenson is stubborn. He won't make a change that easily.
  12. He sure is a streaky player. Even during a game.
  13. Here's a different use for a rod.
  14. Antwi surprising run. Antwi holding. Both qbs cooling off... Bo throws a pick. I guess it only took a quarter of the very first game for the defenses to catch up.
  15. It's no different than any other game. Rod Black was fired last September.
  16. Adams has to hold onto the ball on those sacks.
  17. Knee/ankle. Man, that sucks. Stanbeck is a beast on the field & is a classy player. This doesn't look good being carted out.
  18. When the Flames bought the Stamps, we here all thought a new stadium would be on the horizon. Maybe the fans who are 25 might see it in their lifetime but anyone older than that won't which is a sad, sad, sad, state of affairs. We thought Flames money would go into promotion & advertising making the team relevant again but nope. I think the problem is you have hockey people trying to run the Stamps marketing. With the Flames, people just show up at the Saddledome & they don't have to do much. With football, they don't know what to do so nothing gets done. Tickets overpriced & concessions expensive. Like MLSE, CSEC is set in their ways. Meanwhile in Edmonton we have owners trying not only to make their teams of value with fans in those cities butDomain & Cui also are trying to show fans that THEY CARE ABOUT THEM & ARE IMPORTANT. Not so with the organizations in TO & here. Suitor just wants to talk about Bo. At least, Rod Smith isn't laughing at everything Suitor says. He keeps him honest. Uh oh, Stanbeck.
  19. Living here in YYC, I have no idea why CSEC owns the Stamps. They do nothing to promote the games. It shows in the stands. they're as bad as MLSE.
  20. I always thought London or the Kitchener-Waterloo area would work. London has a stadium that could be expanded.
  21. No idea why O'Shea didn't give Collaros at least a quarter last game to shake things out before the season started. Yeah, there's concern about injuries but you can't worry about that. He needs playing time.
