with the new law that came info effect last week, will there be a designated "alternate" smoking area??
I think in Manitoba you can only consume in the comfort of your own home.

Why are you even on this forum - you just repeat the same pointless garbage and are a constant downer.
It's pointless that Nichols has yet to beat Calgary as a bomber ?........ I guess you could go read all the fire richie hall posts if you prefer that....

We've just not had our luck against these guys in meaningful games recently. Time to change that.
Along with this game, the Riders must choke at home tomorrow so we can romp into Mosaic in the WSF and murder them.
Not having any luck against these guys is an understatement...... Nichols is 0-8 playing them. If Nichols wants to pull out the silly walk again tonight would be a perfect time to do it.......

Who wants to talk about the Riders?
In my opinion...nobody really. The sooner they are out of the picture and out of the way the better.
Who wants to talk about the Bombers ?

I'd say anyone who is not so needy that he needs people to react to his posts would say the same thing, but some people love to seek attention, negative or otherwise, and so our skunky friend trolls merrily along.
Jus for the record. I don't care about reactions that I receive. I do like to let others know when I agree with their comments so I will give likes An such.......and I give out the trophy thingy so I can keep count how many times people have referenced or used my screen name in their post.

He did more than enough to win the semi final last year. Not his fault we lost. There's no reason to say that he can't "bring it" in the playoffs.
Except for the fact he is 0-2 when starting a playoff game (?)

It would be nice to see Nichols get the respect he deserves. What’s his record since taking over for Willy in 2016? If you don’t think there’s a correlation between us turning around as a franchise then you’re out to lunch. Let’s enjot what we have going now. Was Nichols great during our losing streak? No. Is he a contributor to our 8-5 record with him in the line up? Absolutely.
Wouldn’t any player on the team who has been here since the turn around warrant as much respect ?

When the team loses, it's Nichols fault. When they win, it's a team win.
Can't you follow TBurgs logic?!
And I have seen it posted the other way many times, when the team loses its the defence or the teams fault, when they win it's a Nichols win.

Always check the dates on products at both wal-mart and giant tiger when shopping.

Okay, you all have pointed out 5(?) grey cups that were won over what 30+ years ?........ by a "game managing" QB. ....Okay I will agree it can be done. But I still really don't like the odds of it happening this year.

Well, if the defense isn't doing its job, I'd say we need a new DC first lol
I totally understand that..... I was just speaking of being able to fix things during the game. If we make the playoffs and are one and done again there may be a few new people in positions by the first game next year.

I don't think that's quite what he meant.
I think most know Nichols doesn't necessarily put up those 300 yard 4 TD games, but as long as he's seeing the field well and keeping the offense on track, we got enough balance with the run game to make those numbers work. Rather he just do his job than try to do too much.
My not wanting the crossover is because as to that defense, I'll actually give Richie Hall credit for getting into Collaros's head with how he attacks SSK's offense. That is the one bright spot he has for this year. But he still stinks at scheming against Masoli and Harris, so yeah, gotta hope our offense scores 40 or more to beat those guys.
Exactly......if our defence is not doing it's job then we need a QB who can change the game to his teams advantage......and not just keep "managing"

Do we really need to pull out his playoff stats for you yet again? Nichols wasn’t the reason we haven’t won in the playoffs. Our defense was painfully bad.
Absolutely no where in my post did I say Nichols was the reason we haven't won a playoff game to date.
-
Was Nichols resting up last season at the end or was he hurt ? ........These last two games are Nichols chance to morph into a game changer as a QB, and to lose the game manager moniker he has been labeled with in his career. Game managing is really not enough to get a grey cup win........

I still don't get why people live like this. I carry a mortgage (with a good chunk of equity), and an LOC for an emergency. Charge everything to my cards and pay it off in full every month. Agressively paying down the mortgage and choosing not to have all the toys now (buy a car 2-3 years old instead of new so someone else can pay the depreciation), then drive it into the ground.
Easiest way to retire is have no mortgage. By the time you've paid off your mortgage your housing costs are dirt cheap --- utilities / insurance and maybe property tax, which honestly a small pension can cover. Even if you work part time, you can survive on way less than normal.
We're in an age though where everyone wants instant gratification. $1000 cell phones and $100 plans. $90 internet. Come on... find the cheaper route and make it work and then live like a hog when everyone is struggling to retire.I retired at the age of fifty owning my own home. I do owe 6 months on my 0% interest Camaro loan, but that was planned and has been a blast for traveling. Zero other debt. Have a LOC that I haven't used in over twenty years. Man, I should talk the wife into flying down for the Calgary game Friday night.......

Based on your stats here... I wouldn't go with lucky.... i would say they are propped up by 2 or their three phases... Defense wins championships (that's still true today)... but you have to score some on offense...
I believe it's around 1983-1995... or something along those lines.... most old people just associate everyone under 30 as a "millennial"... which is fairly inaccurate
Those dates definitly show that I am not a millennial, thanks.
